the uber-catcherman...

Dudes,

If you fish, you'll definitely pack a Spyderco Catcherman in your tacklebox! This Spydie, in my humble opinion, is the longest folder ever made! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> I think it will be more awesome with some improvements like a metal clip, dimpled volcano grip and krayton inlay! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> I haven't tried the MBS-26 catcherman to date! Heard its more AWESOME! Well, soon, I'll get uncle Mike's concealex neck sheath for this fillet knife 'cos it ROCKS! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

My Catcherman rusted badly. About 1/2 hr with a tube of Flitz and at least it shines again; although it has pitted. I may get the updated model with the new steel and see if that helps.
Cold Steel's Vaquero Grande is the king of scarey folders though... Right up there with a Civie for attitude..

Not any more on that cold steel, with the new CUDA MAXX coming out next month. Darrel Ralph design, titanium, D2 AND a 5.5 inch blade!

(I know that there is no spyderhole on it, but it is just so cool!)
