Terry will be missed. He helped me out on more than one occasion. One of which, was just last week. For that being the week before he left, he still helped me through my problem and emailed me every step of the way.

Good luck wherever you go, Terry.

That's a job that I can only see someone coming off the line/production being able to fill. That's how it's done in the gun industry for the most part. Joe

This is all happening so fast :confused: By the way what ever happened to Ms. Amanda?? Did they trade her to Benchmade ( the Yankees) for 2 first round draft picks.

Now that lady had her act together :cool:

I wish you all the best Terry. I've only spoken to you once, but you sure were a heck of nice guy and very knowledgeable! Good luck in your future endeavours!

That's the first thing I thought of when I read that Terry would be moving on. I've seen a few recent jabs taken at W&R (both here and on another forum), and I'd imagine such public criticism must grow tiresome after a while. Hopefully the decision to move on was unrelated.

Best of luck in your future endeavours, Terry.

Hello all, and thank you for the kind words, and best wishes.
It is greatly appreciated.

My decision had nothing to do with any sniping, or stress from the job
that I was unprepared for. It was simply due to too many personal
issues that I am going through at this time. Some things just need more time
to deal with than I could give them, and still do an appropriate job for Spyderco.
Spyderco is a great company full of great people, and I will miss them all,
and wish I could have made it work out.
I am still a member here, and will still be a Spyderfan, it just wasn't meant to be at this time.
Thanks everyone.
Thanks, Terry

Well there goes my guess that you left as soon as you found out that all of the pivots were greased with a mixture of seal oil and childrens' tears.

You take care, Terry!

Wishing you the best Terry! :) Take care and God Bless You in resolving your personal matters. Since you will still be a resident in Spyderville, it is not all bad! :D

What's wrong with that ?? :D

Besides, try teaching 8-12 year olds and THEN complain about sniping on fora !! There's nothing more hearthwarming than the smile of a happy child when you hand them out the test they were supposed to learn that day.... :eek: :mad: :( :o :confused:

Terry probably got fed up with all of that snow in Colorado.
