New guy with few users..

#1

Post by JT »

Hello,
I'm the new guy here.. I've been lurking though, and hanging out in BF too, but since I'm hooked on Spydies, I think I don't have any other choice but to join here too :)

So, happy to be here, and here's my little collection of USERS so far;
Image

Image

As You an see, I have an affection for crossbill and reverse-S type blade Spyderco's. Latest member of my family is that "bad mother" grey Matriarch.. God it's awesome!

Here's my worn little belt-pocket for Cricket, I use it so I'll have more room in my pockets for other Spydies :)
Image

I have a order coming from Ebay-dealer, which contains byrdwrench and Caly3 SE, so we'll see if I'm more and more hooked on SE's soon.. at least that Matriarch got me convinced about SE's ability cut.

Welcome to the forum! :D

Why do all your users look brand new? :confused:

My users all look like the morning after Armageddon. ;)

Welcome to the forum!

Pretty hard core to use a Grey matriarch...

Nice little collection of users you have there!

I think I'm still fairly "light" user.. my Tasman has seen most of the heavy work.
I kinda try to pamper my Dodo, which I carry the most (apart from The Cricket, which is always with me)

I have a couple of puukko's in my toolbox, which get the real beating, but I think after I get that Caly, we'll see how it stands up for abuse :)

That Byrdench is going to be a good edc too when I'm riding my bike, since it's 22 years old "lady" that needs a little fixing all the time, and I don't want to haul all of my tools with me in the saddle bags.

As for the Matriarch, actually that one is not going to be a user.. first, don't never want to use it for the purpose it's meant to,
and second, I'm somewhat familiar with the history of "the grey ones", so I'll just carry it for a while and maybe then I'll put it away to my drawer.. but can't do that to a new(to me) knife, now can I? That would be a shame..

uhmm, does this mean, that I'm becoming a collector? Noooooo.. I don't want to! I wanna carry my blades, not to store them away.. :rolleyes:

Post by JT »

I just recently got my "new" camera, its a Canon powershot S1, and of course I had to test it out.. just some random shots, I mainly tested the difference in light use. I have to get me some kind of DIY lightbox and a strong light, since decent sunlight is not available in six months.. :(
Yup, you've guessed it, some curved ones :)


Image

this one I truly apologize, it has one non- spydie in it..

preparing for the final battle against evil smurfs..

#16

Post by JT »

I guess that the ultimate weapon against evil smurfs is the smurf-killer, a.k.a.
The Yojimbo.
I know, I know, I was only supposed to get me some backup Dodo's, but couldn't help myself..

so, here's my arsenal for the final battle.. let them evil little bugger-smurfs come, I'm ready :D
