Hope you have a special day and weekend . MG2

Does anyone use one of the old fashioned safety razors? I started shaving with those. I was thinking about getting one. What are some good brands?

I know I'm late to the party on this one, but I just bought my first Gravel Bike.

My only bike since 2009 or so has been a Mercier Kilo TT from BikesDirect that I've rebuilt a few times. If you don't know anything about BikesDirect, the TL;DR is...

Well, it finally happened. My trust in USPS is broken.

I was flying home from vacation on Monday, without checking a bag, and mailed myself my vacation knife, a Benchmade Bugout, and my Lynch NW prybar.

The woman at the desk was very curious about...

Happy. Birthday buddy ! I hope you have a fabulous day and many more . Your friend , Dan :beer-mug :beaming-face

It might be a few years until we see red/gray handled PM2 exclusives in the new MITnacut, but it's interesting to read about.

Over the decades, I've liked a wide variety of movies from almost all genres. Back in the 1970s and 80s, I was a connoisseur of kung fu and modern-day action movies from Hong Kong and Taiwan, which played in local grindhouse theaters dubbed in English,...

I'll start it off....
Glock 17 Gen 5 - just came in today.
Feels fantastic in hand, best outta the box trigger that I've felt on a Glock. I really like it so far....

The video below is an excellent account of US Marines who experienced paranormal events in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.

Note: I understand that probably “most” people do not believe in anything paranormal (or will claim not to). There are a TON of...

I know a few of us have been checking out CRKs recently, and others have carried them for years. I wanted to create a centralized thread for folks to show off their CRKs and discuss the brand.

I first encountered CRK knives at the specialty cutlery...

I figured since there is a thread for spydies in the mail, id make a thread for the others in your life :D

I currently have a Boker Nano Decade edition BNIB in the mail. I just received my wood scaled Kershaw Skyline and Leatherman wave late last week.

She is better known as the GUNTING GIRL to many of the old school forum members and her photos were always the best of the best. Simona is still one of my all time favorite Forum members. I do hope to see her return to Spyderville at some point. Today is...

Are there any other mushroom hunters among the spyderco forum ranks? I work in the woods and over the summer and fall learned the basics to mushroom hunting from a coworker and fell in love with it.

This time of year, and finally with some good rain,...

For some unknown reason my smartphone started to fail on me since yesterday.
So in the evening i started to look for a replacement for my iphone 8, and i can not see the trees in the woods anymore. So many brands i never heard of and even a few that...

The Police: Live!...

Thought I would post this for all who have some nature shots that may be of interest. MG2

I’ve had this thread drafted up for months and with a couple recent threads about fishing I figured it would be a good time for a general fishing thread.

I know I'm not the only one on this forum that likes to fish. Whether you fish in freshwater or...

This thread could either generate lots of interesting discussion or die a quick death, depending on the number (or lack) of potential responses. The reason I’m starting it is that, IME, there are LOTS of people who have done at least a little martial arts...

Our lawnmower recently broke down and my wife kept bugging me to get it fixed. However other things just kept cropping up that needed my attention like cleaning out the garage, fixing the car, going fishing with my buddies, and all those kinds of things....

What do you all think of the US Army adopting the Sig Sauer XM5 6.8x51 to replace the M4 and M16 and etc.? I am of two minds about it. For one thing, it will give soldiers the ability to defeat modern body armor and longer ranges. It will give soldiers...

My personal favorite starts at around 2:47.

Here is are some questions for anybody who has experience doing knife making of any sort. I am interested in making my own fixed blade knives and am looking for some advice on good resources. There are four major questions I have:

#1
Is there any...

this morning i went out to a local park to see the snow on the trees before the wind blows it all down. i didn't manage to get a shot of my pacific salt, but i figured a lot of us probably take photos of just the landscape when we're out photographing our...

Happy Birthday Hans! :party-face :party-face

Hope you get to do something fun for your birthday. Maybe a good hike!

A great Brother who has been around for quite some time now and is also a great contributor to the Forum. A guy we know as bearfacedkiller who has contributed in a really good way over the years. Well today is his Birthday and I personally want to wish...

Anyone know Larrin's email addy? He might be interested in this info.

New research shows what happens when crystalline grains in metals reform at nanometer scales, improving metal properties.

- Streamlight Stylus Pro

I am newer to flashlights and have been interested in trying out the...

The 6th & Final Season opener, actually 2 episodes were some of the best tv I've ever seen.
Gotta hand it to Peter Gould & Vince Gilligan.
They know what they're doing.
Anyone else been watching?

Who’s got one? What do you think? Show them off!

It's been a while since we've got to chat with our good Brother from Down Under . And I really miss his great input. Not to mention the fact he is an avid Dyad fan. He goes by the name O, Just, O and I do hope he chimes in today for his Birthday because...

Anyone heard of these? They just caught my eye, though in the high-end spectrum. Especially the Drift. Vanax blades. Made for extreme corrosion resistance, including all of the hardware. If they have a really good reputation, perhaps someday......

Take a look at the forecast for today and tomorrow. We get two seasons within 48 hours. :winking-tongue

We were under tornado watch on Wednesday night and the sky looked freaky, so I pulled out the phone and started taking shots, trying to catch lightning...maybe someone smarted than me can explain this?

Maybe it's the Mothman and his wife? :zany
