Nothing fancy today.

I feel like this could probably be my one pocket knife and I’d be plenty happy.
Which PM2 is that?
DLT Trading exclusive in S90V.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???

https://i.imgur.com/sphm1mz.jpeg Picked up a second hand Urban Jack, my first GEC. Not sure if I get the hype yet but snagged a good deal. Stoked on the pen knife blade, later runs had the sheep’s foot that I’m less stoked on. Cleaned up the Micarta with some dish soap, an old toothbrush, and gentl...

Re: Need info about this knife.

I love how the old Endura blades look like the Military. Makes me want an Endura.

The handle lines look a bit more neutral as well.

Re: How much did you spend on Spyderco brand products in 2023?

I'm thinking hard here, but my M4 Tenacious might be the only thing I actually bought from Spyderco last year, so I'm at about $130. I went hard on the 2022 Seconds + Black Friday MAP sales, which kind of put me in a hole for knife purchases. I'm spending less on knives these days, and they're more ...

Re: new coating coming!

Definitely looking forward to the color options here. I imagine a red-bladed PM2 is going to sell like hotcakes, but I'm Mark on the green blades.

Re: GP knives Manix exclusive

What about K390 vs Rex for edge stability? Or are they pretty close Everyone says they're close but I've had K390 roll where Rex 45 chipped. I also think that K390 holds the edge longer. I've got 3 K390 knives and two in Rex 45, pretty light use all around. I do still like Rex45, just not as well a...

Re: Trying to bring a stovepipe back to factory edge

There truly is no "correct" angle, but 17º per side is a good place for most pocket knives to be. I like 15º per side lately, both because it slices easier and because it's supported by my Spyderco Sharpmaker. If you added a microbevel to your original bevel, and can still see the old beve...

Re: High-Impact Ceramic (HIC) first folder to be released

We'll see how the Mule Team does. That will make or break it as a knife blade material. There would be issues doing it in Golden. Was the HIC Mule made in Taiwan? The old ones put out by Boker ( different materials) in folding knives were not all that impressive to me and they went in a drawer in sh...

https://i.postimg.cc/Z5HvNTTt/IMG-8294.jpg Just came today. Wanted a Para 3 LW for some time. Don’t care for coatings but thought I’d try it out Love that color combo. If I had more in the knife budget these days I would've picked one up. I think if I had anyone I needed to buy a knife for right no...

Harsh lighting today, but I'm grateful for the sunshine after a weekend of storms.

I wonder if any of the EDC influencers carry around a little white cocktail umbrella to act as a mobile diffuser? :cheap-sunglasses

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?

I just cut a kid's shoe off of his foot. My son and his friend were riding bikes when the kid's shoelaces got caught in the bike pedal. Each turn of the pedal tightened the laces. Happened too quickly to stop the situation before it was too late. The laces were so tangled and tight that the only op...

I came home from work and swapped the MagnaCut N5 Salt which i so often carry for work, for the Small Persian 2.
Is that a Northwoods? Looks like a great knife.

Re: Helle Nord

Beautiful knife Mac, thanks for sharing. I’d love to own a Helle knife at some point, but haven’t found the right one. The Nord is a good option, I think - somewhat of a Leuku.

Took advantage of the break in the storm to take this girl out for a run this morning.
