Viele & Walker C22P

#1

Post by M2P »

Hey,

Have a look on what I found yesterday in a store as secondhand :

[ATTACH]20551[/ATTACH]

Very happy for the Viele because it's THE knife which make me fan of Spyderco. But I hadn't enough money for it when I was student ! Now I have it :)
(100€ so about $130)

I like the Walker line, have the C22CFPE. And now I have the C22P for no more than 120€ ( $160 ) !

Still hesitate for the Lum Titanium and Massad Ayoob (near $188 each).

Congrats.
These are great find. $130 for PE Viele is a very good price. Swiss made Walker for $160 is not even steal, this is highway robbery.
Enjoy the knives.

I saw it too ; for sure, a bit crazy ! Sorry for yours ... :(

Really happy for my new C22, a nice SwissMade Spyderco with nice Blue Almite coated aluminum.
But arghh, I was lookig for the Viele for so much time ...!!! Approx. 15 years ! To balance, I bought two Viele 2 PE ! I knew the first one was longer, and it is ! More elegant thant the second one is. Well, love it :)

My dear friend,

I thought you will not read my post.
Now I have to hit the road: If I would have to cut much things in my job, I would still carry the Caly3 ... that's the reason why I wrote EDC and not EDU :D

Hey,

Another purchase, two new spydies !
First, one I like for a long time, a Wayne Goddard Junior, with an old school shape for the blade :
[ATTACH]20589[/ATTACH]
Not a great great deal (well, don't know) but at 75€ (about $100), anyway cheaper than the original price !

The second one is my favorite spydie, a Native II SS C41PS. I already have one, but in VG-10, and this one is the AUS-10 model ... ;)
With his brothers ! :
[ATTACH]20590[/ATTACH]
Well, at 55€ ($80), I couldn't not to buy it (not sure it's a good translation of what i mean ;) ) !

There's still a police (but in spyderedge), a military (in spyderedge too , and too big for me), the Titanium Lum and the Massad Ayoob ... Argghhh, don't have enough money !
