Hi guys, I've been lurking around for awhile now. I have a D4 PE for a couple of months now. I love it and use it constantly for daily chores and projects. I also have a D4 fully serrated and an Endura that I use to a lesser extent. I think I'm 100% satisfied with my D4, but I find myself looking a...

I may be...if someone can money-back guarantee me that the new $200+ Superhawk will cut everything better than my <$60 Tasman Salt PE. Maybe I had more disposable income back in the day but it seems to me that Spydies are getting pricier...When I called the SFO the other day about a Stretch in CF a...

Wait wait wait wait. The CAPTAIN escaped?!?! :eek: And they disc'd the Manix line..... Hmm....

I think thats a good sign....

Is that just a idea of yours, or have you done any tests?

:spyder:

****. Sorry, but, ****. You guys are getting rid of the Manix line????? :mad: :mad: :mad: I just got a Mini Manix, which for me, is pretty darn close to perfect. You guys HAVE to be putting in a new hard use folder, then. With out the Manix family and the D'allura, theres not much thats "up the...

So, since most of the time I'm not pushing my Delica/Native/Manix to its limits, I should carry a cheaper knife? :confused: OR should I go out of my way to use my knives harder then necessary? (I need to go cut down that small tree in the back yard... I KNOW! I should grab my Manix and baton it thro...

the stains that developed doesn't look like actual rust on the VG10. Looks like tarnishing from water.Wiped the blade with a cloth and the lil spots still remain. I must insist that i haven't noticed actual brown rustspotting on any VG10 blade ever. That happened to my Delica, and had the same symp...

I haven't messed with the screws at all, they came like that. :spyder:

Best part is I got it for $90. My dads friend is a dealer, so..... :D :D :D :D :cool:

That looks really nice. Man, it also looks rather massive in your hands. I can't imagine how large the full size Manix is. Congrats on your latest purchase. :) Its not really as big I remembered when playing with it at a store. I have small hands and reallllllllllly skinny fingers, so its not reall...

Ok, so I only have 1 picture, but I do have a video, which has a lot of frames, right? :p :o :o :o http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/8968/dsc03315or1.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJGsueIZrlM Great knife, I am kinda surprised how easy it is to depress the lock bar, I like it a lot better witho...

CAN 'A WORMS! CAN 'O WORMS!

Peter, those pics are great. They are EXACTLY what I was looking for. Pics such as your are great because they allow me to see how another knife relates in size to the Delica, whic is a knife almost all of us have. It's interesting, that while some people say the Mini Manix is 'too large', it's rea...

Those are great pics, Peter. They really show how the "Mini" Manix is way outta they Delica size range. I'm saving those suckers. :cool:

I would buy ANY new caged ball lock model. :)

Who else thinks the Wave would do awesome on this show? Everyne I've met has been facinated in one way or another about my Waved Delica. A waved Endura is even better.... :)

My favorite thing about the Native III, is that it packs in more blade in less amount of space. If you look at the Native vs the Delica, the Delica has a lot of "wasted space", while the Native has close to none.

I love my Native III, had these pics kicken' around on my computer, so.... http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/8103/dsc03016fy6.jpg http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/8215/dsc03022dt8.jpg http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/6676/dsc03211kp5.jpg http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/6392/dsc03224zo3.jpg h...

I've never EVER lusted for a knife this bad before, even the Bi-fold has been knocked out of the ball park for THIS sucker. I NEED it! Lava "Humh, right" Smallfly "You call that a knife?" "Caly 3" "Butter knife" G-10 Lava "Hm, ok, I GUESS." Mini D'al...
