Re: H1
Further, with serrations, they make short work of some more aggressive cooking / prepping chores but then a few swipes on uf stones and they can slice nicely for food eating.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Funny thing is I recently traded away one of my Leatherman MT's, and around the same time I lost track of my Rebar. Recently found it and had to put it back in my pocket. https://i.imgur.com/ZXW03Kn.jpg Rebar is my favorite multi tool. I keep a surge in my bag and a swisstool in my car, but the Reb...

Re: H1
Ceramic plates really do beat an edge up.
Recommend taking the edge down to around 15 degrees. I also recommend leaving it coarse. Maybe probably stop at the "fine" kme diamond stone. The "coarse" may be too coarse

Re: I might be a heretic!
Nah, keep the delica Japanese made. Keep the lineage intact.
Just replace zdp189 for something different.

Re: I might be a heretic!
It is hard beating the delica! I try and try. I tried with the Polestar. Nope. I've been trying with the Native 5 lw. Nope. Chaparral LW. Nope. Para 3. Nope. All my knives from other brands in that size and use range: Nope. For it's blade size, I have not found a general edc knife that I prefer more...

Re: Does sharing with others help justify our addictions?
One piece of advice I'll give you is Spyderco has made a lot of great models over the years and you can find them all on ebay in some cases for relatively nothing. If you're hard up for cash I'd take a stroll thru the Spydercos of yesteryear and find something you like rather than blowing money on ...

Re: Would you prefer if Spyderco boxes were improved in any way?
Yeah, I gave up on trying to keep boxes. They all look like **** so I figured it wouldn't help me trade or sell to present it in a beat up box. Thicker boxes would be nice. Otherwise, I don't care about presentation. I don't need fancy $20 packaging or a zip case or cleaning cloth (though I do alway...

Re: I've decided, (bleep) it, I'm, gonna carry my "nice" knife, replacement be damned...
Oddly enough, the only knives I really buy backups for are the great lower cost knives that I use and use and use. I have probably 6 delicas, albeit they are all different. Same with pm2's--I have three different(okay so this isn't a lower cost model). I have two copies of my gec bullmoose in green ...

Re: Got one of those CIVIVI knives
I'm usually not either but I've gear 9cr is decent and with a heat treat between 59-60, it can't be terrible. I was just hankering to try some of these new budget knives. With all the real steel, bestech, ruike, etc on the market now, there's a lot of choices. This seemed like a good one to try. Al...

Got one of those CIVIVI knives
This is the first non-spydie I've bought in a while. I was attracted to it becuase, despite my expensive collection, I do enjoy finding a good knife in the $40-$80 dollar range. There was a lot of hype for these and that got my attention. The features are nice: made by WE, a very quality manufacture...

Re: Fist in the Eye
S30v may have been the compromise to get people to buy it. A lot of people are afraid of high carbon and a lot of non-afi types want to see the words "powder metallurgy" or "super steel". I'd still buy it in s30v if I was in the market for a puukko. That said, I'd prefer O1, A2, ...

Re: What upcoming Spydercos are you looking forward to the most?
The two I'm hankering for this year already came out: Hanan and Bouwer.
Next year it will be about the frn police.
