Trimmed a brisket with the Southfork.

Hmm looks like Spyderco use to make some great fixed blades. Guess they didn’t sell well enough? Too bad every once in a while a see someone post a great no longer produce Spyderco fixed blade.

Yes, great knife, but definitely not cheap.

Yes Spyderco's version of Phil Wilson's popular custom model is very good. He likes high carbide steels for hunting and skinning knives. This one is no exception, with S90V, a full tang and a machined G10 handle.

These were standard production for almost 5 years (2013-2017), a period when S90V was at the pinnacle, and very hard to find in production folders, let alone fixed blades. They were expensive, and eventually the demand disappeared. I should have bought a backup, as well as the smaller bird and trout version, the Sprig.

Used my S110V manix to make a makeshift washer for a bolt head that was smaller than the original bolt which was lost. I was helping set up a used baby crib at someone’s house and they didn’t have any washers or hardware in their house. It worked pretty well.
Cut out squares from some clamshell plastic, poked Xs in them and pushed them onto the bolt.

Way to use your noggin Ryan!

Thanks Rick!

Made feather sticks with the lil native for this marshmallow fire

Lil native peeling and slicing up an orange.

Had to get to the bottom of the jar.

Repairing some cabling on a damaged recliner motor.

Used the serrated sheepsfoot Caribbean to cut fiberglass insulation. Works like a charm.

V,

That is such a nasty looking Police4 lol...

thanks again for the info on the scales. I've owned a Police 1 SS, 2 G10, 3 G10, 4 G10, and 4 lightweight. This is definitely my favorite Police.

Excited to see those Police XL's revealed.

You and me both, looking quite forward to see what we can get lol...

Sorry for being super boring, but this is all I had to test my new Sage on Being a fan of the Native 5, I always took a pass on the Sage, too similar to the Native 5 i thought. It's crazy how different they handle and I really like the thinner blade on the Sage 6.
