3 1/2" perfection

#21

Post by Sequimite »

For me the perfect all around blade length in 3 1/2 inches and despite having dozens and dozens of Spyderco knives I have exactly one that is 3 1/2", the Stretch 2.

Then the Gayle Bradley came out with a 3 1/2" blade, the Para 2, the Caly 3.5, the Superleaf, the Persian 2; heck, even the Manix 2 is close at 3 3/8" but I already have two of those.

I'm going to wait for the Super Blue Caly 3.5 so right now my big decision is between the GB and the Para 2: BIG or light.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Yes... that's it! It's a prophetic thread about preparation for the Zombie apocolypse.

Or we could post thread after thread about what color, model, and steel we wanted for the end of the world........I want a Tanto blade, thick enough to pry with Zombie killer blade in Zdp and it must have a orange G10 handle for "safety". :rolleyes: :D

And you're worried about him coming back? Do you owe him money? (Just to stay OT, would he take a :spyder: as payment?)

I'm thinking someone forgot to log off his account, and his little brother came in and took the opportunity to make him look silly with a goofy post. At least, that's what I hope the explanation is!
