Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Anyone else feel excited to get out of bed, because you know that today you get to go play with your new knives??

But in your case I was hoping for a pic of another new knife you just got...

Soon enough! I'm heading into the woods very soon, and the Sun/Moon Chap isn't exactly an outdoors knife.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Well, Julia, just in my humble opinion (but also quite extensive experience with this knife) this is one of the biggest misconceptions when it comes to Spydercos:
For me the Chap is probably the best outdoors folder among the very small Spydies (Para 3 / Delica size and smaller), especially as a companion to a bigger (fixed) blade. The thin blade actually can take more than one would think, and makes the Chap an amazing tool for any smaller cutting task, like whittling, making feather sticks, cut mushrooms and smaller food and so on.
And the ergos are great also, as long as one does not work for an overly long period of time
But maybe you are not talking about the blade and ergos, but more of the pretty sun and moon scales, which should not get dirty and damaged in the woods?!
Anyway, have a great time out there! :)

These are the flowers I am looking for when searching for water on otherwise rather dry alpine meadows.
You can see patches of these blue flowers from rather high above when climbing down from the higher, rocky regions, and since these plants grow in more humid places chances are that one can find water there.
And:They do contrast nicely with the burnt orange scales of the Endura...

That Purple/DLC combo looks so darn good!

Arghh, missed out on the DLT PM2, the purple scared me off a little but that looks awesome.
I don’t trust people who don’t like dogs.
Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Yes, I definitely meant the pretty scales! I know you carry the lightweight outdoors a lot, and I love having a small slicey knife for mushrooming (although usually a fixed blade so I don't have to open and close my knife a hundred times).Wartstein wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 9:52 am

I honestly wasn't sure I'd like the purple/black combo, and I bought it thinking I'd swap scales. But it's really nice in person.
Sadly, my knife time in the woods was short-lived today. My husband and I both found chiggers crawling on us, and that meant immediately going home to scrub our bodies raw.

If you end up riding through New England’s better half again give me a shout and maybe we can ride together a little. :)Mushroom wrote: ↑Thu Aug 20, 2020 5:59 pmGood to hear!

It is terrific and a good fit for where I live and how I ride.

I would do it... Or you could just wait until they release a Rexcarta Shaman. That could be a very long wait though.

Started out with the SpyOpera, made a short lanyard for it using the Manix 2, then switched to the Manix 2. (From the iFone’s perspective the SpyOpera looks bigger than the Manix 2.)
Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Thanks! :)
It was a terrific day, a terrific place and a terrific light, easy to make that pic.
