First impressions: Yup, it's Bram's design alright! However...

Didn't use a Spyderco knife for pruning today. Took a Cold Steel Vaquero Grande (aka Espresso Macchiato) and a Chiruwa Ang Khola.

The Vaquero Grande has a stock edge (rare of me, I know) and a custom lefty clip courtesy of sc_rebel1957 (thank, Ron!). It...

The other day, I handed a practice knife to my daughter and she practiced a form on the scratching post:

Moments later, she stabbed me in the groin with the same training blade. :eek:

I need some help. I have had people from other countries ask about me shipping items to them. How do some of you calculate what is appropriate to charge to make sure you do not quote an amount too small.

Hi folks!

Title says it all. I just found out about these folders so at least we do not have to speculate about the looks :D

It looks like their Spydies will be getting a workout cleaning up the mess. Hope every helps and says a prayer.

I heard a rumor today. Normally I wouldn't pass it on, but the potential cost for not passing it on is ridiculous.

Aloha ALL,

Went to pick up a jacket at the local surplus store here, since our facility is too darn cheap to issue us anything. :mad: On my way out, I noticed something hanging next to the sharpeners and flashlights. I asked the owner if I could check it...

Are you a moderator now???? Just curious as you have the last post on the ethnic thread and say it should be closed? Coincidence or ???? Take Care!!!

Going through the tool boxes last weekend and came across a cigar box of stuff that I had tucked away. Inside was a couple of different knives that had some pretty significant history, to me at least.

When I turned eight years old my Grandfather gave me...
