Howdy IV! Welcome to <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>Land! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

What's the knife situation in Israel? I know some places have hyper-restrictive laws, but if you already have that load, there must not be.

thanks <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
knife collecting isn't very big here, i only got to it beacause i needed a knife for the army (other than the spydercos i have a sog goverment agent which proved too big for CQC & a crky cruiser which is great but i'm hoping to replace it with a military model some day as my combat knife).
as for law it's pretty good here, any blade up to 100mm is legal <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Welcome to the forum.

Like you I wish I had a Millie <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

The Native and Delica are good knives to start a collection with. B)

Welcome my friend, to the forum that never ends.You just put a new spin on the old military axiom: "Drop your socks and hold on to your Spyderco!" Choose wisely among all the Spydies for sale. I suppose no one warned you about the "addiction" problem inherent among your fellow Spydies. Maybe sal should but a warning on the box saying "If you or your loved one has a serious Spyderco collecting problem, call 1-800 Spyderco"... LOL and welcome to a great company and great bucnh of ELUs.

Get a safe for your little beauties...

No, no. If you have a true SpyderAddiction, I highly recommend you call me, Dr. Sword and Shield, or Doctor/Patient Java. We run the Spyderco Addicts Treatment Center, and provide help for hopelessly addicted <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>Holics.

We are capable of handling all levels of addiction, and can help even the most addicted <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>Holic manage their needs. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Welcome a board. I think you will get more use out of the Spydercos than you would a pair of socks.

Welcome to the Spyderco Forum. You already have some very good spydies. The Military is a great knife, I'm sure you'll be more than pleased with it when you'll get one.
Note, however that it is NOT a combat knife. It is versatile and it can perform most of the task you assign to it, even SD, but - like I said before - it's not a dedicated fighter (like the Chinook or Gunting).
