Although, I don't like the direction that college football is heading in,(Super Conferences) I still like to watch it.
Especially with Deion Sanders...
Does anyone here like Poetry? I hated it for so many years and then picked up a book of poetry I will discuss below and changed my mind entirely. I was surprised at how wonderful it can be and sometimes exciting. My favorite poet is Alfred Lord Tennyson....
Hellfire R9X, a missile with no explosive warhead, but six knife blades (!!!)...recently used to take out a Hezbollah leader...are there Spyderco bugs on those blades? Are they wharncliffe blades? We need to know.
This is a good value imo.
The action is really nice for the $$
Blade Sharpness is very good too.
But, it feels so good & locks up so well in hand.
And the packaging far exceeds those costing over 10x what the Vosteed does.
Man, if you want a nice little...
Well, 8 to be exact. I have a Plumb 3 Connecticut and another Collins 3 lb South American pattern shipping to me too. I have been hunting for a decent true Rockaway pattern as well. The GB is an American Felling Axe for perspective. These are Kelly and...
Either get a very good RFID secure wallet or leave your cards at home and only use them for emergencies. All that it takes is somebody bumping into you to take your money.
Today, Knife Rights Director of Legislative Affairs, Todd Rathner, gave testimony asking the House Civil Rights and Judiciary Committee to amend SB 5444 to remove “knives.” As it stands the bill would make it illegal to possess ANY knife at a “transit...

I was just branching out to pick people’s brains from the Spydie forum (trying to avoid the Reddit style posts) about some advice on this/to vent my recent thoughts. I recently graduated in December, and my girlfriend has been there for...
Anyone tried the speedgoat from them? Would be a nice lightweight hiking knife. I’m not a fan of paracord wrapped handles but willing to try if if it’s not super thin

I've always really liked Helle of Norway. I really liked the Jegermester I had. Helle's always have beautiful wood too. Mostly Curly Birch but, also some Beech wood as well and, maybe even more pieces that Im not aware of.
Helle's also come with a very...
I'm jealous of you guys with your fancy scanning electron microscopes. I have neither the budget nor the space for such contraptions, so I've tried to be content with my $40 Amazon USB scope.
A couple weeks ago, I spotted a binocular microscope that my...
Looking for recommendations - I know I have seen small sheaths with pocket clips for carrying traditional folders in the past. I haven't been able to find anything I remember now, however, and only have seen one or two makers. Who/where am I missing?...
