Very nice chap by the name of Jay owns and operates it. I've bought quite a bit of cutlery from him of various brands and find that in real world use it's pretty hard to beat a Spyderco knife IMO.
Me too!

Warriors and Wonders is like knife porn!
Jay is a very friendly guy and he really knows his stuff,he has the largest selection and the best prices,I won't go anywhere else.

The best part is,I only live within a 15 minute drive from W&W.

Spyker,

The really kewl thing with Warriors is that he has the whole lineup. Every brand he carries he has them all and in quantity. And you can play before you buy. Love those beautiful wooden signs from Spyderco hanging from the ceiling for year end sales achievment. Hard to beat, and like you said his prices are good.

Sean,the most difficult thing about going to W&W,is not busting the bank when I see pretty much the entire Spyderco line-up in front on me.

I'm really hoping Jay will be getting a big batch of H1 Spyderhawks,last thing we need is for him to run out before we can get our hands on them.

i'm sorry if i offended anyone. i have nothing but respect for everyone here.

welcome, Sean.
Stephen, I see no reason to apologize at all :D there seems to be to many folks nowadays, that have thin skin,or have lost there ability to recognize a joke for what it is. Please don't assume all Canucks are anally retentive. Image

So, as I was the poster who thought implying Canada was part of the USA was not a funny way to welcome a new member to this forum, you now see fit to call me anal? Perhaps you should re-read the forum guidelines about how to treat other members of this wonderful forum.

c'mon, really? i refuse to joke anymore with you freakin' Canadians.
Please don't stop! Your running play on geography/geology/genealogy is hilarious and it's unfortunate to have it poo-poo'd. I am proudly Canadian and do not understand how anyone, even a Canuck, can call foul on your reply. It was obviously meant in good nature. Even if it wasn't, so what, it's just pixels on a screen.

Sean, it was years ago, grade school, all I remember was walking home from school, was awesome in those days. Walked past Dairy farms and acreages.
It was like living in the Country, the school is long gone now I suppose. Sparling School was the name I think? A three story brick building with a cool slide built in for a fire escape.

Dave,

Thanks for that. Not familiar with the name of that School so I suppose it's either gone or changed in name. Still lots of Dairy farms out this way but you'd probably be surprised how it's grown. We moved here in '73 and it's changed big time like most other smaller cities/town.

cheers
