Curlyhairedboy has been a long time contributor to the Forum. And I've always found his comments to be quite interesting. Well today is his Birthday and we all need to wish him a very Happy Birthday at that. Happy Birthday!!!
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?...
Once again to get this done in the Senate! If you are a Washington resident, once again we need your help! Knife Rights' bill that would repeal Washington's ban on spring blade (automatic) knives, SB 5860 , is ready for a floor vote in the Senate. We need...
If no one has heard, Smooth Precision Pens A.K.A. Urban Survival Gear, closed its doors back in July/August of 2023. The owner and founder, Kelvin Verrett closed the company due to a health scare, and working 16 hour days for 8 years...
This guy has been nothing short of an excellent contributor here on the Forum. And he's got a lot of seniority as well. Well today is Larry_Mott's Birthday and we all need to wish him a very Happy Birthday to let him know that we all appreciate his great...
Or if you haven't actually used one but you're mechanically minded with a better imagination than me, would you care to hazard a guess as to it's utility and effectiveness? I looks to me like it would work well, but I...
Does anyone here remember those excellent Time Life Old West Series Books?
I remember daddy ordering the GunFighter's edition in 1981 I think. Man, we absolutely wore that book out! (us kids mainly!) Time Life did an outstanding job on these! But, I hadnt...
I just received my very first sword. A short sword at at that. A Wakizashi by Swamp Rat Knife Works, a Division of Busse Combat.
She has a 16 long blade made of Busse's own CPM-3V - and she is magnificent blade steel. I'll post up some performances videos...
I searched around, and while there were a few threads for specific models, and quite a few threads slinging mud, I couldn’t find an inclusive, positive thread for discussing Benchmade knives.
Lets allow this thread to be just that, much like some of the...
One of my favorite knives is the Mora pro in stainless steel. Great handle and blade size. I’m not a huge scandi grind guy but the blade is so thin it starts to feel like a full flat. Is there any way to strengthen the scandi grind some?
Another old school, long time Forum member is celebrating another year on planet earth. Our good Brother defenestrate has seen a lot since he has become a citizen of Spyderville. I like him because he agrees with me most of the time :cheap-sunglasses So...
I bought a Brisa hiker and the handle is nice and round but the plastic is smooth. Do they make a spray on rubber coating or did I dream that? I know one can use grip tape also but I always like the Mora rubber handles for grip
He is a Forum member I just call Zero and he goes by the Forum name ZrowsN1s . He has been on the Forum for quite a while now and is truly one of the better contributors here at Spyderville. Well today is his Birthday and we get to join in his...
Hi guys
been off the forums for a long time and just passed by to check how's the forum been. I don't see much by The Deacon? who has in my opinion one of the most interesting replies and topics and allot of knowledge on Spyderco and the world. Hope he is...
I’ve been wanting to get into a little higher end knives a bit (but still realistically affordable). I’ve been looking at Quiet Carry, Chaves and CRK’s mostly. After having my Spydiechef and Techno 2 I’ve really grown to love titanium scales and the fit...
I was wondering does anyone here have any experience with the Boker’s special editions like the damascus ones made from WW2 Tanks ?
They are rather expensive for being Boker’s and since those are one of the few boker’s still made in Germany i wonder if...
During WWII many soldiers carried a Ka-bar for a variety of tasks; today knife enthusiasts have a plethora of quality options that will fill the same roles.
If you were transported back in time to serve in a 20th century war, or you were placed in a...
You Helped Get It Moving! Let’s do it again! Knife Rights’ bill that would repeal Washington’s ban on “spring blade” (automatic) knives,SB 5860, was voted out of the Senate Committee on Law & Justice. Thanks to all of you who signed in to support the bill...
The Nontron bears the name of the village that saw it born. His story is so long that it is even difficult to date his birth. However, specialists agree that this Périgord knife is the...
Anyone use any of these? I've sort of been toying with the idea of learning to shave with a straight razor. However, a good one, plus gear, is very costly. So, I've been eye balling a Feather Artist Club razor to learn with so I can see if I really want...
I thought I had asked this before, but I can't find it.
What do you all think of the Buck Saunter? The standard version has 154CM and Micarta. There is a marble carbon fiber with S35VN. Anyone have one of these?
Knife Rights’ bill that would repeal Washington’s ban on “spring blade” (automatic) knives, SB 5860 , is set for a hearing Monday before the Senate Committee on Law & Justice. Sponsor Sen. Phil Fortunato has requested that we encourage our folks to sign...
With the recent retirements of Roy Williams, Mike Kryzezk- Coach K, Jim Boeheim, & Jay Williams - now Nick Saban retires & if that ain't bad enough, it certainly looks as if Bill Belichick & the Pats will part ways. And, I wouldn't be suprised if...
