Re: More on Vitamins: Do they work ?

What would you say to a person who takes 2 or 3 000 miligrams of vitamin c a day in the standard vitamin store capsules, thinking it will prevent them from getting a cold germ?

Re: Horrible topic but important: Why so many suicides?

Do you think this is a true statement or not? Someone said the real reason that no government allows a person to kill themselves/commit suicide, is because governments and large corporations want people to remain alive and working if possible so they can purchase consumer goods/products and pay thei...

Re: Strange question: What level of expertise would it take to "extend the blade length" on a Spyderco knife?

... If the enuff had a blade 1 inch longer I'd probably own 2 already. Even HALF an inch more blade would be "enuff" for me and I´d purchase one. But as it is: Just too short. Wartstein my friend, this is one of the very reasons I started this post. I want Spyderco to make an Enuff Salt w...

Strange question: What level of expertise would it take to "extend the blade length" on a Spyderco knife?

Obviously if you want to shorten the blade or modify it by cutting away excess, unwanted metal, that can be done. But, what if you purchase a Spyderco knife (folder or fixed blade), and are not satisfied with the presently-available blade length, what options are available with present machining tec...

Re: "Most Durable" available Spyderco Knife?

David, if Spyderco were to make an Enuff Salt with a four inch long blade and a sharper point, with serrated edge, would you get one and consider it a serious survival blade?

Bloke, is it true that the rabbits were originally imported into Australia as a cheap food source for colonists and once they bred they got out of control?

More on Vitamins: Do they work ?

First some basic things to start: 1 I understand I am not seeking medical advice, nor can or would I give it. 2 Obviously, there are certain necessary nutrients the human body needs. The root of my question is this: Does taking vitamin supplements, such as vitamin C, truly benefit human health, and/...

Gaucho/Patagonian/Argentinian knives.

I was reading about the famous Gauchos of Argentina and Patagonia; the cowboys of these places, and their history is a rich and fascinating one. They carry traditionally-distinctive fixed blade knives. Here are some websites I found with these: https://www.piecesofargentina.com/shop-knives http://ww...

How were dangerous/incompetent captains relieved of duty in the British and other Navies?

I was watching a movie about the British Navy sailors back in the 19th century and one of the captains began to "go overboard" in his treatment of the crew, and it seems began to have severe mental problems and was unfit for duty. In real history, both antiquated and modern, under what gro...

I know this can get a little subjective at times but in a general sense, based on what you all know, and you can include discontinued models from the past, as well as available models from the current lineup, folding and fixed, which Spyderco knives are, in your opinion, the toughest and most durabl...

Cool. Nice find. There have been threads on Spydercos and movies but it would be interesting if there was some sort of an official site that we can go to to check out the Spydercos and other knives in general. Doc, if you were to speculate, do you think if a Spyderco knife featured majorly in a pop...
