I did. I got my dad a Persistence PE and my brother a Clipitool Standard.

Did anyone else give any :bug-red-white for Christmas?

I bought a Centofante III for my brother, he seems really happy with it ! (He doesn't tinker with knives, so the pinned construction might actually be a pro rather than a con)

(And I bought another one for myself, love me some 2mm bladestock)
:respect In the collection :respect : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

I gifted another Schemmp Bowie before they go away for good and I got myself a K390 Wharnie D-fly that I am now in love with.

Oh, and I surprised myself with a Mule Team MagnaCut. ;)

This Christmas, I did give my 10-year-old grandson his first real knife-blade in a SAK Compact.

But Spydies, apart from the wooden Dragonfly I gave him a few years ago, must wait a few more.

He’s a bit of a space cadet. I want him to appreciate a multitool before advancing to the greater challenge of a more focused tool.

I was out for beers with my good friend and showed him the ad for the BHQ aluminum PM2. He seemed to really like it so I snapped up two blue models while they were still available for a Christmas/birthday gift for him (and one for me). They were delivered in just enough time to drop one by his house on Christmas day.

I always give Hawkbill Ladybugs as keychain knives. Got one for my youngest who started driving this year but didn't give it to him yet until he graduates HS. They have a no knife policy so he'll have to wait until June!

Gifted a K08 Santoku to a culinarily-inclined coworker.

I picked up one for myself earlier this year. Despite having kitchen knives several times more expensive to choose from, I’ve been reaching for that knife more often than not for food prep.

Yeah I did>> I game my Pastor a C-36 Military for Christmas. He had been complaining that he wanted a better knife to skin deer with being he is an avid hunter every fall. I think I made his day with a new Millie.

He now wants one of the C-60 Ayoob Sprint Run models as a result. Surprisingly he wants a serrated version of the C-60

^ Cool beans. I like to hear of gifts that create new Spyderheads.
