Spyderco Forums

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......

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...

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 I can't be the only music nut or musician on the forum, so...

In the car this week:

Alice In Chains - Disc two from Music Bank
Snapcase: Progression Through Unlearning
John Mellencamp: Words and Music
Train: Self Titled
The Police: Live!...

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...

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?

Beer thirty.. Miller High Life... John :)

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...

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

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

I know we all like our Spydercos but I am sure once in a while we edc an other .. Sooo.. What is in your pocket??

My son got me a black ALLOX Cadet for Christmas and that has been riding in the rfp since.. Also edc a Leatherman Style PS in the watch...

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,...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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

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....

On another thread I just made reference to a historic concert tour here in the USA in the year 1977 that I was privileged to attend. It was arguably the very best tour of British rock group Led Zeppelin and the 1977 USA tour is still evidenced by...

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?

Anyone have any interest in a thread to post deals on knives by other manufactures? I think Bladeforums has a no deal spotting rule, and Slickdeals rarely cares about anything other than a Kershaw. Let me know if you think this is in bad taste.

Amazon...

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!

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.

Just curious if any members here ride motorcycles! Weekend warrior? Daily commute?

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....

I see they finally caught up with White and White. That guy is a true psychopath and has already killed before. He did not need to be out amongst the public. When captured, his first words were, I didn't kill her. I bet. The law enforcement officer that...

It's 80F to 85F and I'm picking up branches that have fallen so the lawn can be mowed here in N. Central Illinois. I suppose those living in warmer climates have had shorts on for quite a while, but 1st day for me.

Nice day. Have to get used to the...

I’ve wanted a surface gauge for ages but always jury rigged something to get by.

I could have easily bought a brand new one but I suspect they wouldn’t be quite like the item I remember from my trade years.

Anyhow, I bought this older Starrett from...

Happy Birthday, Col!

Best Wishes and hope all’s well, mate. :clinking-mugs

Happy Birthday to a solid contributing member of the forum!! Hope you have a great day! Always thankful for your help in guiding me towards the Guardian 3 model knives!

Hey all,

Wondering if someone can recommend a knife store.

We’re going on vacation soon, and I won’t be checking a bag so I’ll be without an EDC. I’ve been making a habit of buying an inexpensive knife on the east coast, something cheap but...

I used to write a fair amount including in an outdoor blog I started back in 2012. The last couple years I had quit writing for a host of reasons. Perhaps it is the subject I chose as I have been more frustrated than usual with ‘society’ these days;...

Funny (as long as it isn’t happening to YOU) or weird stuff caught on camera (security cameras, CCTV, or whatever).

My personal favorite starts at around 2:47.
