Re: How sharp should an EDC knife be?

I find that sharp enough to shave arm hair as the upper end and to easily slice cut news paper as the lower end is where I like to keep my EDC. The hardest part for me is which knife t...

Re: Spyderco Calypso Jr. Sprint Run Knife Gray (Aogami Super Blue)

I do have a Spyderco Sharpmaker that I often use on my other EDC knives. The Calypso is knife number 15 and is good company with several ...
