Re: Do you immediately sharpen a new Spyderco?

I use the factory edge until it needs sharpening... but this may be too much common sense for today's society.

Re: BBS DLC Paramilitary 2 Exclusive?

Like most millennials, I was forced to sign a blood oath to be the most entitled person anywhere I go, and to make it known in every conversation I'm a part of. Since joining this forum I've come to see that others are doing a far better job, and I need to step it up to make my millennial quota. I'...

Re: Cutest knife that I ever bought

Just out of curiosity was the photo originally shot horizontally and then rotated on your phone with an image viewer? Edit #2: I downloaded your photo and rotated (also fi...

Re: Cutest knife that I ever bought

So how do you keep the pic from rotating? Original is oriented correctly. Pic gets automatically flipped to its side when posted. Anybody?

Re: Cutest knife that I ever bought

Yep, this one has that "super slicey magic" going on with it. Don't know if it is due to the cts-xhp or the blade thickness or both. Cutest "No"! That honor goes to the switchblade in the 25 cent gumball machine. Yep.. the one we all tried to get and lost our months allowance doi...

Re: Knife myths you should not accept as true a priori (meant to be a POSITIVE thread!)

Knives without locks are no good ... Wouldn't ever consider owning one of them!!! Nope, not true ... the UK PenKnife is a wonderful user!!! After using one for a few months, I'm finding locks to be a pesky nuisance. I guess for my uses, non-emergency light duty slicing, they really aren't necessary...

Re: BBS DLC Paramilitary 2 Exclusive?

I'm surprised the Delica m390 is still around and it has likely been a couple months now.

I guess it is a good time to buy these PM2's; get one of each flavor, and helps spread the shipping cost across multiple units.

Re: Red G10 Para 3 M390

Received my email from DLT that these are available next week ... as has already been mentioned by others.

I'm not a para 3 guy so no competition from me. I hope you all get them before the ebay profit pigs do!!!

Re: St. Nicks Knives Exclusive hint - Lil Native?

I too have a slightly irrational ball at $200 for a knife. I’ve only ever bought 3 over that threshold; a ZT that is since sold; a Dozier personal that I absolutely love, and a Bark River Bravo 1 that I’m still not so sure I’ll keep. I feel like I need a sandpaper glove and make the thing fit my ha...

I suspect the lil native will be back and hopefully you all get in on it at its retail price. Doesn't make much sense to not do knives that sell and make money if you are in the business to sell knives and make money.... yes, I know, so confusing!!!

Re: St. Nicks Knives Exclusive hint - Lil Native?

the most i’ve paid for a pocket knife is around $150 and even that’s a stupid amount of money for a pocket knife in my opinion. there are some that i want that cost more than that, but i’ll likely never own them. i can’t imagine ever paying so much for such a small knife. Interesting how everyone h...
