    Thank you for your welcome SaturnNyne! Well, here in Spain you are allowed to carry a not longer than 11 cms (4.33 inches) one-edge blade. This can be lockable and as far as I know balisongs are allowed as well. So far this sounds good, but blades longer than 11 cms and/or with two edges are only permited for collection purposes, so you can't get them outside your home. Sometimes I like to carry a rescue/tactical knife out in the country, but I guess authorities can seize it. Automatic folders are prohibited, even if some folders open faster than them... but it's the law... sigh...

    Our grandfathers, and fathers who lived in small villages used to have always a folder with them, now these items aren't very popular and everything different from a multi-tool is very likely to be taken off by a police if seen. Of course if he finds a balisong when you're at a bar's gate you can say bye bye to it. I think the laws aren't that different from some states there, but knife collectors and users are much less popular, so you better don't use pocket clips here.

    I've just taken better photos of Para2 and Superhawk...

    Regards,

    Roberto

    If you haven't had one, I tell you it's much better in your hand. I wasn't a fan of this folder (maybe biased for some funny critics I read) but when I unboxed it I realised how a good buy it was.

    The handle is carbon fiber but texturized (good grip, not as other CF handles)... let's say is an even better looking G-10. The ergonomics are fantastic and the blade is quite thick. Compression lock is OK for me, as I don't think it's better suited for left-handed.

    The look is great, beautiful and aggresive. Months ago it was expensive, but now is a must-have.

    Regards,

    Roberto

    Excuse my ignorance, but what is the top knife, above the Chris Reeve? It almost looks like a Benchmade without the logo. Thanks, Brad

    Well my Caly3.5 showed up today, batteries in the camera are dead though.

    All I can say is it is a perfect knife for me.

    My waved Delica just came in the mail today. I've been wanting to try out a waved knife so I tried to ghetto wave my ladybug but that didn't work so well

    Here it is with the rest of my Spydies (I know, I need to get more)

    No ignorance, just a little stupidity on my part. I should have included that info. That happens to be a custom made by Ray Laconico. I can't say enough good about Ray, he was wonderful to deal with and I absolutely love the knife! If you are interested in his knives, he can be found over at bladeforums.

    I like it, layered G10? It looks awesome, especially for a custom job.

    Snagged a PE one, not sure what to do with it. I can't imagine carrying it, the "Thicker tip for general use" isn't really all that thick.
