Round Hole ROCKS!

#1

Post by sam the man.. »

Dudes,



I've love to share this ~ A couple of days ago, I crashed my bike. Busted my right hand pretty badly but was fortunate enough to be able to wriggle my digits. Thanks to Papa Spyder's innovation, there's never been a dull moment rehabilitating my injuries by practising one-handed opening with the round hole!! I'm on my way to recovery and never leave home without my spydies!! Viva le Spyderco!! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

You always find a positive side to everything,and it always includes spydies,I can't help but to admire that.On a different note though,on an impulse I traded around and got another brand knife(I know shame,shame)just to test it.Needless to say I thought I would carry it for one day for kicks.I went to clip it in my pocket,the seam of my jeans catches the thumb stud and now a nice matter seperation in the web of my hand.Well it was traded the next day for a spyderco and i will never even waste my time,trying any hyped up model from another company,especially one with a stud,nothing compares to the hole for fast deployment or easy carry.

Someday my friends,I'll own em all!!!

Whosyour ~ Oh man! I know what you mean on thumbstuds... <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> How bad was the cut? I find the studs rather unfriendly to my thumb, imagine practising on it for a day and all you get, is sore thumb.. *throb!* <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

dePaul ~ Thanks dude, the force is strong in my thumbhole! *heh-heh!* I've been using the Military for theraphy since it has a larger thumbhole. With bandages, its the best tool I can put my money on! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

When it comes to knives: Nothing (Spyderco hole) is always better than Something (thumb studs). <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

it wasn't a big cut but it was a bad one in terms of learning,i am the wisest of many men for now (I know the glory of the hole) and all the safe fingers it provides protection for

Only one thing better than the Hole is the Hole combined with the Ramp (eg GUNTING).

Hello Sal,
Welcome back! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> How was your European tour? Been more than a month since the crash. My right hand and all its digits are fully operational now! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
