In no particular order, Knives are not poor self defense tools. Even if you don't know to use them, as it was put to me by a VERY experienced kali instructor and full time LE officer "Tha knife is a touch weapon,give it to a 7 year old and they're dangerous to you". And hard to disarm. And...

While I personally do NOT carry my knives as weapons, I will never judge a responsible, law-abiding citizen who does . Why? Because we all have different lives and different life experiences. Even if I don't always feel the need doesn't mean that someone else whose life and circumstances are differ...

I can’t imagine what it must be like having to leave home armed every day.

i don't feel the need to leave my house armed every day. i just feel the need to be free to be armed.

100%!

I agree Jim, for most people S30V is everything they need. BD1 or BD1N by all accounts are excellent steels for not just this but pretty much any knife use. Holds an good edge for a decent amount of time, perhaps not as long as others but makes up for that by being easy to sharpen and has great corr...

Haywire. Gina Carano. Need I say more? Well I guess I can. You may not have seen or heard of this movie, it didn't do very well but is a very good film. Not just a martial arts movie showcasing Gina, without any plot or good story. It has both and is a stand alone very good thriller/spy movie. Dire...

I'd buy one. I think the BD1 that it originally was in was great for the purpose, and fairly inexpensive. And by most acounts a good steel in general. I don't know if 8CrMoV is cheaper but if so again would be fine for the purpose. So would plain old 440C which has the advantage of being American ma...

I still think Spyderco should do a "heritage" series of sprint runs of many of the earlier models. Do them all in Spyderco's Spy27 and maybe do a G10 pattern that matches the Spyderco box or something really unique. Do it in a yearly or biyearly cycle, it would be huge with collectors. I ...

I feel like my knife buying journey is at a standstill. I mean, how many folding pocket knives ranging from 2.5" - 4" does one really need?? They all do the same thing. I'm satisfied with my 28 and haven't checked any websites for new knives in quite a while (mainly so I don't tempt mysel...

bearrowland, Thanks man. I can't take all the credit. Well maybe some,lol. Sal seemed to like the idea pretty quickly and the rest of you guys speaking up helped for sure. I joined up just to take what seemed like a pretty long shot and post that thread. Who knew it might pay off? Hope it does come ...

I’m definitely the odd person out here, but if I were flying by air nowadays, depending on the destination, I wouldn’t pack more than maybe an SAK. Maybe a Spartan or a Classic. Even those, I would secure them to something else inside my luggage with a zip tie or something. Jim I don’t blame you. I...

My vote is for polar opposites, the Copilot and the Tatanka, along with another run of the Worker. Hi bearrowland, did you see in my thread on reintroducing the Co Pilot that Sal said he's working on the design? So I guess we're going to see it! Would definitely like to see the Worker reintroded. I...

Dragonfly vs Delica with special shorter blade. Agree the D'fly is a great knife with nice thin blade stock however, the short three finger grip has always made me favor the Delica. I presently have only the HAP-40 D'fly in my collection, unique little razor sharp blade that is inactive and in stor...

Apologies for the double post.

What about a Dragonfly Wharncliffe with a 2.28” blade length and either VG-10 or K390? https://cdn.brandfolder.io/YLOLU61B/as/pqvlhn-92a2so-cdx3gx/C28FPWCBK2_Both.png?width=800 https://cdn.brandfolder.io/YLOLU61B/as/fh7cj2h9n63fj9tv34p7nxx/C28FP2WK390_Both.png?width=800 [/quot Great knife, differen...

ZrowsN1s ,Thanks for reading it. I share my memories of him to share his memory with others. If you thought of him in the moments it took you to read it he was alive again for awhile. If that makes sense? Also to help us all appreciate those we love who are here a bit more. And he would have loved s...

I don't quite understand the number of responses that always come up in a thread like this saying there are exclusives/aftermarket/used/Spyderco shouldn't do this for one reason or another. I say if they want to why not? They'll see if it sells and if it does it's widely available to all. Does anyon...

As the op I'm glad you're glad,lol. Seriously though cool knife and nice job cleaning it up. I think one of the other things I really like about this knife are the handle colors, specifically the khaki color you have. Would you buy another one if they decided to reintroduce it? Hint: Demand would he...

I think he'd be pretty proud Co Pilot.

Hey bearrowland,Thanks for that and reading my very long post.I think he would be to. And happy. I'd like to think he's smiling.
