Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Thanks Mrj , rough week for entries. I think the BF frenzy could have been cause of lack of participation or Jeff scared everyone off ! 
Hopefully this week will have more competition. Great shots buddies ! Dan

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Congratulations @JSumm and Mr. Dan…thanks for judging @Mrjingles…yeah between Thanksgiving, football and Jeff’s great shot it was a small field with a clear winner 
Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Thanks @Mrj for the nod!!!
Yeah that may be the slowest week I recall. I'll admit, time gets sucked from all directions in this crazy life. Throw a handful of kids in the mix then a holiday. Heck, most weeks after work, I am busy getting kids ready, out the door, back in the door, then off to bed. Taking knife photos is a pleasure, but often very low on the priority at times. I get it. Maybe things will heat up after the holidays. Or we may have some cool holiday themed pics coming at us.

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Oh man, just bought a second Swayback because the price was too good (for european standards) to ignore. And your picture on the "What are you carrying today" thread just made me want to buy a third one @JSumm !
I'm gonna put some fodder here, clearly a losing submission but the grind lines on this Native 3 do deserve to be looked at from time to time !

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Always liked shooting grainy black and white film back in the day... this is just some digital B&W though.


Because desolate places allow us to breathe. And most people don't even know they're out of breath.

Love love love some grind lines and complex grinds on knives. Few have them now.
As far as the Swayback, it is very photogenic, but man does it really work. It is an all around great frickin knife.
