Re: Nutritious safe low carb snacks?

Surprisingly, pork rinds of the Epic, Baken-Ets and Randall's Signature Select brands fill that niche for us. My wife is a health nut, and she's the one who introduced them to our pantry. Thanks for this. I tried the pork rinds and maybe I should give them another try. I had a bad experience since ...

Re: Fish Hunter

Did you all know there is a fake counterfeit Fish Hunter going around? If I can find the listing I can post it in the counterfeit section of the forum. Lousy fakers. It looks stamped out from cheap metal.

Re: SE performance is more than simply teeth vs no teeth.

David hello friend. What is your opinion of knife makers cutting serrations onto the top half of a knife blade rather than the bottom half? Would that improve cutting performance?

Re: SE performance is more than simply teeth vs no teeth.

David, you really made my Sunday with this post. I haven't been over here since ages only to find this gem. As a full serrations nut since 2005, I very much appreciate this. I had a plan to make one of these post myself but you did a better job than I ever could since I can't post pics anymore on t...

EMP Proof Mechanical Only Devices?

With all the talk about electromagnetic pulse attack dangers what are ways that society can block or minimize these? Use shielded electronics or mechanical only devices with no electronic circuits?

Re: Flashlights

I use a Coast Plasteel model but I need a more powerful model. Any suggestions? It needs to have a polymer housing and easy to replace bulb and batteries and be under 30 dollars.

Re: Salt steels for pool/chlorinated water.?

Apart from the steel, I've had the yellow FRN react to pool water and it became a little lighter then before. The H-1 held up just fine. Somewhere in the forum history I posted pictures of my before and after experiment in which I immersed a Spyderco Pacific Salt original serrated model in a jar of...

Re: Hawkbill doing what it does best

I also love my Byrd Hawkbill but I wish they will make a larger version with a 3.5 to 3.75 inch long or 3.95 inch long blade.

Re: Time for some different Byrd designs.

Please make a Byrd with thick 3.0 mm tanto blade both serrated and combo edge and plain blade. And in that 3 to 4 inch blade length r...

Re: hello everyone!

Welcome! This is a great forum. I am very interested in Italian culture and knives. Most people think of spring driven so called switch blades from Italy but the Italian knife makers produce lockblade and fixed blades of great quality.

History of FRN for Spyderco?

When were the earliest Spyderco knives made with Fiberglass Reinforced Nylon handles and in general when was FRN and that class of material used for knife grips? My understanding is that our greatly missed friend Walter Blackie Collins pioneered injection m...
