All i see are random places to put my money. I'd walk out of that place about 3 pounds heavier and not be able to get my hands into my pockets.

Anyone else find it funny that even Spyderco doesn't have a Yojimbo 2 in their display case? Talk about hard to get!

And that takes dedication and hard work, and is greatly appreciated. I see the Spyderco 'institution' as being the all-encompassing picture. Which includes the store, the customer focus, the legacy of innovation and the high quality products born of it; and also the great things that you and the Spyderco family do for our armed forces and our communities, taking the remarkable and unique position you are in and using it to "lead by example" … the really important stuff.

Thank you for all of that, Sal.

VR,
Paul

I met Sal, Eric , Joyce , and Jurphass(sorry if I spelled incorrectly) at the Blade show. All of the Spydercrew was a class act. They all were extremely patient ,Down to earth people. They made time to speak with everyone.They have a customer for life from me as well. I turn everyone that I can on to their products.

Wouter, I sure did. Until my time there I had to enjoy your pics from your visits. Now I have a few of my own. :) Thanks buddy!

Yep, if they had a Yo2 when I was there I would have bought it. :)

mcjhrobinson,

Yeah I love how they have a very "outside" environment on the inside. Tons of plants growing all over, and big ones too. I also wanted to see what was upstairs, but even more I wanted to see what was in the back. :)
