Sunday Spyderco?

#1

Post by Razor »

I was wanting a small spyderco to carry on Sunday when wearing dress pants. I like the spyderco standard,but they are hard to find. What about the Persian? I want G-10 handles or micarta. Any suggestions? Thanks all.

A Kopa would fit the bill. A gem.

Viele 2! :D

G10 and micarta in one! Classy and dressy enough for any kind of trousers ;)

God bless,

Simon.

Sunday, with suit wear for me is the "Toad" a D'Alton Holder design for Spyderco, model.C57S. A real neat little knife. :)

If you can find one, the Micarta Jess Horn also works great in this function.

If you're right handed, the new C97 Howard Viele Jr would make a nice Sunday carry and you get both Micarta and G10 in one neat little package.

The micarta ones I have are the Calypso Jr. PE and Jess Horn SE. They'd be great with dress pants, but are harder to find.

I haven't seen a Howard Viele yet but the original or the new Viele 2 would also be great. And you can buy the Viele 2 now.

The Absolute Perfect Sunday knife

#12

Post by JD Spydo »

That's right I have the "Absolutely Perfect Sunday Spyder". It is the little C-39 Micarta Dyad. It has 2 blades as most of you Forumites know. One very wicked little serrated blade and one little Persian type plain edge that is so versatile for it's size. I defy anyone to top that :D . I know, I know I am predjudice because I like the Dyads so much. But look what they are all going for now on Ebay :eek: . If anyone can top the little Micarta Dyad I want to know what it is so I can get one. :) :spyder: No arrogance in my family: I GOT IT ALL :D :D :spyder:

Razor, my friend, the new C96GP SpyKer is reaching out to you. Since you mentioned the Persian (a small Spyderco ;) ), in your original post, I will observe that the SpyKer is about the same size and it's one very classy-looking knife. Gotta get me one of those :D .

I find that either my Delica or Salt I is the perfect knife for carry 7 days a week. Whether I'm at work, church, or out on the town.

Glad you found the Calypso in micarta -- Also, if you want G-10 and a slim profile, how about the Solo Button Lock?

I had never seen that before :eek: . Not sure how I missed it. Boy, the price is sure right, and AUS-10 too. My own Sunday, black suit, go-to-church knife is the Centofante III. Works for me :D .
