I have no idea. Melanoma is a reality. I take Vit D and stay out of the Sun. Between leisure and work in construction, I have had all of the Sun that I plan to get. At 64, I try to stay away from further exposure. I miss getting a tan once in a while, but that's OK. I wear hats, jeans and long sleev...

What occupations will super AI effect vs not? Robotics, AI and software running on AI chips will dominate many industries in 25yrs. They are just getting started. The least effected jobs will be those requiring the human touch, human ingenuity or jobs that would be too costly to tackle with robotic...

Nice buy. I really enjoy the Native Chief as well. It’s a large knife with a very slim carry. I also have the M390 version, the REX45, and the S90V which I find the handle a little too slick. I am still holding out hope for a 52100 version. I was going to snag an S90V and at least one M390. I inqui...

Many people are hurting today due to his passing.

I might know 10 names in the NBA and Bill Walton is one of them. His name has reach far beyond the basketball court.

Rick where did you disappear to?

Happy Birthday Tkok83Spy wherever you are!

Not sure how many of these Sprint Run knives are left but I just bought another Spyderco Native Chief in M390, Satin direct from Spyderco. I may buy another one or two over the next 60 days if they are still for sale. M390 is a great steel! :party-face https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/C244GD...

Back in the 90's my then wife and I went down for our yearly trek to Indianapolis for the Indy 500. I think that we attended 6 or 7 times in a row at least. I was driving, and of course we did not know where we were going, and managed to get into an accident. A woman in her early 20's driving 40MPH ...

Looks fantastic. We need one.

We had one, but not sure what my brother did with it! We have the hose....

Salt Dreams....

When will the Magnacut Native Chief be out? I checked around and nobody has one.

zuludelta, I never thought about a steel water bottle as a weapon before. Good idea for places where 'weapons' may be forbidden but water bottles are not. I may be wrong, but I imagine that with a partially-filled water bottle, the water inside could potentially increase the centrifugal (?) force o...

I just purchased 1 of the knives that I was considering.

I bought another M390 Spyderco Native Chief direct from Spyderco. I may buy another one in a couple of weeks.

It is definitely a very real problem. I am and have been an advocate for plastics/polymers but I am for safe plastics that do not harm people and the enviroment and animals and plants. If we could move to diamond polymers which are nothing but carbon arranged into a diamond like structure, perhaps ...

I think 3D printers will vastly improve in speed and ability. The prices will come down. In 25 years people may have a few 3D printers in their home and shop. - 1 to make parts and tools for the garage....tool and parts suppliers will go under - 1 to prepare/mix food and make mixed drinks/lattes for...

My best 2 knives, that I will never sell are ..... I cannot say until I buy more copies for backup! :winking-tongue If I published that info and folks went out and bought all of them up I'd be very bummed out. Keep the thread going for another month, and I'll tell you what I bought! I'll have both ...

Spyderco makes a lot of beautiful knives. I cannot afford to buy a hundred knives a year since retiring so I just buy what I think are decent self defense knives. My best 2 knives, that I will never sell are ..... I cannot say until I buy more copies for backup! :winking-tongue If I published that i...

I bookmarked this thread. Today we do not have a car, but that will probably change within the next 2 to 3 months. I suggest everyone have a car kit, and a very light go-bag(could be a shoulder sling) and carry this 5lb bag everywhere that you go. You never know if your car will be stolen or you can...

Forever chemicals are just as bad. https://www.nrdc.org/stories/forever-chemicals-called-pfas-show-your-food-clothes-and-home If you think you're safe, have your blood tested. 3M and other companies that make these chemicals have polluted the entire planet. I think that it was last year that I call...
