A Present

#1

Post by RebelSpree »

I made my first post a while back trying to decide between a couple of knives for my first spyderco. Since then, a few things have come up, and money has gotten a little tighter, but I wanted to show my appreciation to my godfather. I thought his first spyderco would be an awesome present.

I have to say I am very impressed! This is the first spyderco I have ever held. Hopefully after a little saving, I'll get a stretch (and get to keep it :D ). I just saw Gringo's post about his dad and thought I'd share my own short story!

Happy early Christmas and/or Holidays :)

Your a good man, and so must be your godfather.

Great scripture also.
NASB Proverbs 22:[6] Train up a child in the way he should go,
Even when he is old he will not depart from it.

He must have been a good godfather and trained you right because through him you found good taste in knives :)

I've always liked how solid the SS models feel in hand.

Perfect! My first Spyderco, my first quality knife, and still one of my favorites. I'm a big fan of all metal construction, and the Delica does it so nicely. I gotta wonder though, serrated or plain edge?

Thanks! I had no idea what 22:6 was referring to haha.

Very thoughtful gift! He will never depart with that!

Get lots of Spydies while you are young & when you are old you will still have them.

Thank you everyone!

PayneTrain, It's a ComboEdge. I was afraid the Delica's blade length would be a little too small for it, but he seems to enjoy it!
