Sometime yesterday the 7 americans, australians, and germans that were being held hostage were freed from the building the taliban was keeping them and were brought to a safe area by U.S. special forces and anti taliban soldiers from within afghanistan....

I have a Native Lightweight and I am looking for a good sheath. I work in an office so I don't want something that hangs down perpendicular to my belt. I'm looking for something that holds the knife parallel to the belt and so is less conspicuous. Any...

Which will win?

Is micarta slippery and soft unlike FRN?

I am having trouble deciding whether or not I should wait for the FRN Jester.

Does anyone know if the Jester's will be available for purchase in time to give them

as christmas presents?

Will the micarta handled ones be available

in time for a christmas present for myself?

Thanks

Bruceter

Which one will win?

This will help my decision.

All will be FRN and serrated.

Size doesn't matter.

Give reasons why what will win will win.

Please

I've been carrying a Benchmade 710 Axis for a while, but I decided to get something more universally acceptable as well. So I just received my Spydie Calypso Jr. in micarta/plain edge.

What a great knife!!! I don't consider my Benchmade to be complicated...

How much are your MBC classes

I will carry it around and I will hae a serrated Harpy so my EDCs will probably be Rescue a Harpy and a plain Merlin, all depending on which pants I wear...so should the Rescue I get be plain edge or serrated, I like plain edge knives better, and I never...

HI ALL DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT EMERSON KNIFE'S I WAS LOOK AT THE CQC7BW-BTS I ALSO HAVE HEARED THAT THEY ARE REALY HARD TO SHARPEN IS THIS TRUE AND WHY?

After a fairly rotten day, 1000 mile round trip in 19hrs + disappointing trade show, my day was really rounded off when a plastic tray on the side of a train seat caught in and sprung the clip on my standard

It was bent out about 9mm and would no longer...

I guess the subject is kinda self explanitory. It will be a plain edge, and my first real knife... which one would you think to be better?

I would have included the Native II, but the clip in the tip up postiton really gets in the way of my fingers...

Good buy?

I want something for self defense even though I will never have to use it. I just want to be able to say, Oh that's a self defense knife made by Spyderco. .

If I get it I will get it sometime next year, maybe in March but I dunno.

If I...

Hello all,

I have been putting some money aside for my next Spyderco purchase. I was going to go ahead and buy the Howard Viele next, but I have postponed that purchase.

I will be taking on martial arts again in the not-so-distant future, and I am...

I recently received the Spyderco 2002

catalog and marveled at the Salsa and

Lil' Temperance with their nested

compression lock(s), as well as innovative design(s)( especially the Lil'

Temperance, being designed by Sal himself ). Again I...

Is the SpyderCo Round Hole Really an eye?

Sometimes I look at a Spyderco knife and see a dinosaur if the blade is serrated and folded back to look like a mouth. Does anybody else do this?

Do you have to have a split personality to love a Dyad?...

I should have asked this days ago but sliped my mind.

I am going to Nashville thur-sun can anyone tell me about any shops with a good selection of Spydies there?

THANKS

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would be interesting in trading me a plain edge Starmate for my plain edge Chinook. Only carried 6-8 times, perfect condition. Sharpened and lubed. Comes with box. Trying to get rid of it because I just want something...

First of all let me say how hard it was to pass up another Spydie for the 204.I was not sure it would be worth the price.I got home about an hour ago and sharpened my Rookie ll on 30 degrees and touched up my native ll on 40 degrees.It only took about 10...

Hey Samo,

It's been a month (posted 10/11) since you told us about your expedition to the upper reaches of a river at the Malaysian-Indonesia border in East Malaysia..:cool:

Any new expeditions since then? Given away any more knives? Wer'll wait to...

I remeber a while back reading about a spydie being worked on called the yojimbo. I didn't notice it in the 2002 line up but then I realized it could be one of the 2 new neck knives, the other being the S.P.O.T. I remember it had a blade similar to a...

I just bought my first spyderco knife. It is the Stainless Steel Police C07. I fell in love with this knife when I saw it on the film Training Day. My question is how often should the blade be sharpened and what is the best lubricant to use on the pivot...

I am going to get the Harpy for sure but can't decide whether I wanna get the Matriarch or Rescue to go with it. I am strongly thinking the Matriarch for two reasons 1)I like curved blades 2)It is limited production so I should hurry up and get it....

I would like to know, what were the Spydercos that came in carbon fiber.

I'm hooked on CF Spydies, I guess i have started a collection without realizing it. Now I'd like to start filling it in.

Any info would be welcome.

Thanks, Tug

Sal etc,

The civilian model is the first of several folding knives designed and produced only as a law enforcement back-up defence weapon.

that was a quote from the lil bit of paper that came with my civilian, what are these other several knives you...

Is it true or is it some kind of gimmick?

Here at a shop nearby they have a rescue with something like Land Sea and Air on the blade or something like that. Is this on all of the Rescues?

Well since no one around here replies to my posts anymore, I will tell you since I am expecting no guesses

I got the 2001 catalog Now I have easy access to all product codes, except where do I insert the P or S to indicate plain or serrated on some of...

i just had to get back online to say how much i love the gunting. i just got mine a couple of weeks ago, and next to the chinook, it s my favorite knife. i carry the chinook in my right pocket and the gunting in the left.

Hi, as I had one of my kitchen drawers open, I noticed a glimmering knife, so I grabed it to seehow sharp it was (checking to see if I could find a rozor-edge knife in my house).

Well... it turns out that this knife has a serated edge that, to my...

I had posted this on the General Forum and another forumite suggested that I post it here. I edited part of it and here goes:
