Hehehe yeh. An acquaintance once pulled out a paraframe and showed it to me and said "I heard you have a few knives, do you have one this nice?" I just answered him truthfully and said no. :D

PS: I had a ZT 301 and a grey para in my pockets at the time which I didn't bother to show.

Yea sometimes it's not worth racing the guy who revs at the light. Especially when he's in an old dirty van.

Hands down, my Strider SNG DGG. "Thats a Bad azz looking knife" seems to be the most common. Guys at the gun range love it.

My pimped Delica 4 or my SB Caly 3.5 win me the most compliments. The dodo probably gains the most attention overall.

I don't think I've had a wow that's awesome, but my DragonFly2 never has anyone raise an eyebrow.

In new jersey you don't measure by compliments, instead it's dirty looks that I count.

In my case, the small embellishes spydies get the most positive comments from NKPs, like this SFSW Kiwi:

My Stretch CF. Not so much for it's appearance, which is very nice, but for how easily and smoothly it cuts. After folks see it slice through something like it was air, they always ask what it is with awe in their voices.

...only because my co-workers don't realize the value of my Spydercos and are intrigued by the axis lock.

My favorite right now...

A guy from my cigar lounge complimented me on my Spyderco Junior yesterday, as I took it out to remove the shrink wrap and seal from a cigar box. He thought it was a coolest looking handle design. I must say I had no choice but to agree with him.
The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...
