Re: help me decide on something ridiculous to buy!
Yea, go for it man. I'm still sad I lost my Matriarch, and that was probably 5 years ago now. Practice drawing it with the wave, it inspires confidence for sure.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Large Spyder Thrower. $130 for 3 of them with a leather sheath and instructional book. Throwers from a folder company is pretty ridiculous. Bonus ridiculousness for sticking to the plan, not taking them out of the house, and having an acceptable spot to throw inside.

Spyder Thrower! I didn't even know those things existed. The Christmas Present from ****!
I'm gonna wait for the k390 limited edition... which could take a while.

Yes, they are. I think I grabbed them through his eBay page a while back.

Awesome! He always makes the most awesome scales for Spydies. Too bad the waiting time for his scales these days are off the charts...almost 3 months!

Curios if the matriarch 2 would work in the garden or landscaping? I've nearly pulled the trigger a few times.

Re: help me decide on something ridiculous to buy!
I've done a few write ups on it after carrying it for a week at work. Can't remember which thread/threads off hand though. Definitely a great landscaping knife. That curve is wicked on pull back/draw cuts!

Not sure about ridiculous everything has its place ,Rescue Assist in black , cobra hood whistle deep finger grooves window breaker and a whistle what more could you ask for Out
Re: help me decide on something ridiculous to buy!
How 'bout one of these? It's a different kind of Spider, but it'll go great with everything else that everyone has suggested, just ask Sal.

The matriarch with the ring. The ring was so poorly finished it sorta put me off the whole knife though tbh. I do totally get serrations and hawkbills now though.Buddafucco wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 3:41 pmIt's been a week... Did you pull the trigger on something?
All in all, a decent exercise in obscenity.
Lightly insane.
