Hey, everyone:
Recently I've seen several threads in Off-Topic that have made me do a double-take. We try to give you a considerable amount of latitude in the Off-Topic section and we try to keep our rules as simple as possible. Our community is filled...
The information you are about to read in this book will not only shock you, but also anger and excite you at the same time.
It will shock you because the simple therapy presented herein may be the closest thing to a
panacea that you’ve...
As some of you here know I will tolerate a hollow concave grind if the knife is good quality but I prefer the Saber and Scandinavian and Zero Blade grinds on knives, and flat grinds second to those. I like thick convex grinds on my knives with blade...
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...
I know I can't be the only music nut or musician on the forum, so...

Never say never! In a criminal case involving illegal carry of a switchblade, Commonwealth v. Canjura, that challenged the constitutionality under the Second Amendment of Massachusetts’ ban on carry of a switchblade (with a blade over 1.5 inches), the...
A knife company that used to make everything in USA and now has it made elsewhere has folders with liner locks and what they call titanium carbonitride bonded 420 stainless steel. Their customer service insists their liner locks are tough and safe and...
Well, I got a hunk of leather in the mail a couple of days ago, a double shoulder of 7-9 oz. veg-tan good for making knife sheaths. So that's what I'm doing! Right now I'm working on a sheath for a 3.5 in. Dexter paring knife that I want to be able to use...
Here’s three work in process pics that’s he’s sent to me. Looks like he’s ahead of his scheduled promise date. This guy has been super to work with, if this knife is half as good as he’s been to work with I’m gonna be very pleased!
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....
Well after seeing a lot of vegetable/knife posts on the “What Spyderco is in your Pocket Today” thread, I think it’s about time to see how many of you Spyderco forum members have green thumbs…plus there are some here that tend to talk too much (namely...
Yesterday afternoon I had my National Knife Day post ready to go when the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California issued its decision in our lawsuit challenging California’s ban on switchblade (automatic) knives with a blade 2-inches...
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 shop...
Over the years, since the late 1800s AD, there has been talk of making some giant super tower that reaches into orbit (we will ignore the ancient myths and legends about giant world trees ) so that people can shuttle people and goods from Earth to orbit...
Is a revolver enough gun for concealed carry and defensive requirements? I'm not talking about something like an NAA 22 mag single action revolver, but something like a S&W J Frame or K Frame with a 2 or 3 barrel. I am thinking 327 magnum, 38 special,...
Just finished reading this book, and already have niacin (in powdered form) on order.
Due to growing medication shortages the search for alternatives is growing, and besides many other health benefits niacin can completely replace statins, and this while...
I love a good grilled cheese sandwich. I like to use real butter and either white bread or wheat. I love Rye bread the most, but I can't get it over here, sadly.
For cheese, I love them all, as long as it is good cheese. It is hard to find good cheese...
I know hygiene was bad in the 1800s and it all began to improve in the USA for food hygiene. It got better and better until the late 1990s and later. I noticed waves and waves of food recalls.
What is causing this? Chime in old timers here. You know very...
Due to latest updates in Meta applications, there are heavy limitations applied by content moderators, with help of AI, on any knife\EDC related topics. I am thinking if this is a new era when most of us will, in the end, get back to our...
As some of you know, about a week ago, I purchased a Sandrin Knives Torino.
Sandrin is an Italian knife company that makes knives (fixed and folding) with tungsten carbide blades.
Tungsten carbide is extremely hard, much harder than steel, and harder...
