Hate to say it folks but I really don’t worry about “Winter” here in the City. :)

Re: Your top 5 Sal Glesser designs?

The Calypso, it stands alone far above anything else IMHO. :) If you're talking about the big C-54 Calypso then you've got a big "HIGH FIVE" on that one :cool: Other than the C-60 Ayoob it's the one folder I want the very most in one of the new Supersteel blades. My most favorite Sal Gles...

Re: Let's get hyped for the Amalgam!

Holeshot sent me some pictures of his mod. Since I’m using Imgur I can only post one picture a day, so I had to combine both photos into one. Thanks for sending it to me. https://i.imgur.com/3AHDlQa.jpg Thanks for your help! I used a 60 grit wheel to grind off most of the flipper until it was just ...

Up loading images

I have a request/question. First let me freely admit I’m a tech idiot. I have noticed that I can post pics on Blade Fourm directly from my iPhone or iPad without any issues. On this fourm that doesn’t seem to be as easy. Why? I know I pay a fee on Blade Fourms for extra services and would gladly do ...

Re: Let's get hyped for the Amalgam!

Well, I finally got around to grinding off the flipper with my new table grinder Santa brought me. For me it has made a big difference. The knife now opens and closes like a my PM2s. For me the flipper just got in the way and with the nicely sized Spydie hole unnecessary. :) I’d attach a pic but sin...

For some reason I am no longer able to attach photos to a post. When I choose a pic from ones that I’ve compressed and click done nothing happens. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

Eurastus, welcome to the forum! You are indeed lucky to live that close to both of those establishments. If it were me I'd have been broke a long time ago. :D

Re: Spyderco Embassy is back!

That is such a beautiful knife!! I just wish I lived somewhere where I could legally carry an auto knife. **** you California!!! I have been carrying out the side and OTF autos regularly in the city for more than twenty years without issue. I take care as to where and when I do use them. I don't wh...

Re: Spyderco Embassy is back!

Hmmmm... I've never ordered from BladeOps before... looks like they have a 15% re-stocking fee for any returns. Has anybody ordered from them before and know if this is true? Kind of a turn-off from buying from them. I've ordered fair number of knives from them without any issues. Don't know about ...

Must be because I'm used to this slender knife. I absolutely love it. Made in the US, CPM154, aluminum handle scales for under $90. I must be playing favorites haha

Re: Embassy in stock?!?

Looks kind of chunky, reminds me of a lot of Kershaws. Autonomy 2 please! The Autonomy 2 is a great auto but IMHO I like the Embassy for EDC. To me it is a much better auto than any of my Kershaws. To me it more is on the level of ProTech and MicroTech out the side knives. Get both they are well wo...
