Spyderco Forums

Been carrying my grail pocket knife in terms of functionality and style and personal sentimentality. Been carrying it for a couple weeks now, enjoying it as much as I imagined I would, need to stop bringing it to work so much as it’s already collected a couple nicks and scratches, but oh well it’s a knife. But I do have ebtter knives for those tasks, like my lightweight jr.
But just look at this thing, what a beauty and a phenomenal user.

Man, that is why I always pack more than one. I got one for doing the gritty stuff, then I got one for shaving off a thin slice of whatever.

I actually carry usually 4 different knives on me at any one given time while out working on stuff. There are those times that require a 5th, that usually depends on how long I am going to be out.

So just carry one in your front pocket for your do all rough and gritty stuff, another in your back pocket for when you need one really sharp and/or clean...

So far I have just one S110V Native Chief Lightweight and I am carrying it. I think that I will buy 2 more of them. The handle is excellent. If you plan to hold onto the knife the Spyderco Lightweights cannot be beat.

Loving all the fishing pics
I need to carry my Native Salt again, just wish it was SE, and a different color. Might be time to mod it.


Gotta start the morning off right

Cool shot and that’s my favorite Monster drink

Well, since I handled one at Blade Show some time back when it was in the prototype cabinet. I got this one last year and it has met my expectations.

This one is quickly becoming my favorite!

Nothing like being wired and relaxed at the same time!

Haha exactly! Peak mental clarity.


Just finished grinding serrations. Not too horrible for a first time. Clamped the Dremel in a vise and free-handed it. Now I need to decide what color to dye the handle
Might try grinding serrations on my Manix, next.

Nice! Props for giving it a try yourself, looks pretty good honestly. Shallow and non spikey serrations, bet it cuts pretty well.

Thanks! I'm happy with them so far.

I like that dye job
And that's an interesting tritium plug. Is it designed specifically for a Manix?

It's a repurposed tritium crossbar lock for a Benchmade Griptilian. Flytanium

Outstanding! True Spyderco knife porn. I'd like a centerfold of that knife to hang on my wall. Caly Jr FTW!

Dance recital day required a more upscale pocket carry.
