I hope it's not frustration with how a topic went in off topic that pushed him away.

Hopefully he's just been busy. Been a little distracted by the outside world myself the last few weeks.

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Finally got around to watching the video. Good stuff!
What's most interesting is the breakdown between collectors and non-collectors, and then the breakdown between customizers and non-customizers. Looks like the same kind of variety seen in the ELU market is also seen at Spyderco!

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Fun video. I love the passion demonstrated by the Spydercrew.
On the top five of all time list, my guess is that the list is the result of a poll at Blade HQ, and not a ranking of sales figures.

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Hey Spyder Crew, any chance you'd post some close ups of that 40th anniv. to this thread? I'd really like to see one with a little wear on it. Im too chicken to cut anything tougher than cardboard with mine.

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Neat video.
That blue advocate looks nice. Wonder how much it'd add to the cost of the knife to do that in production?
I love seeing an old discontinued model getting some love. Instantly thought of JD like everyone else when I saw it. This makes me think just maybe he might get his dream of a sprint run, seeing it get appreciation from Spydercos crew like that. I like the wear visible on it too, used knives look so much better than new.
I can see why he loves it so much even though I've never held one, it looks like it would be a crazy good cutter with the angle of the blade and the large handle to get leverage on.
Girls pants definitely do have tiny pockets. I'd hate trying to EDC all the junk I carry in them!
I've never thought to do file work to a clip like that. That's a neat mod.
Gotta agree with the guy carrying the 40th Native. The best thing you can do with a knife that nice is use it.
The Southard is one of those Spydercos that I always liked, but never ended up buying.
I liked the comment about trying other brands. Spyderco makes my favorite folders, but I made the mistake of ignoring other brands for a few years. I was missing out on some useful designs.
Well, I'm off to write a review. Wouldn't mind busting up some firewood with that axe. Not as much fun as a car but it's something, haha.

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
It's so funny, I was playing this vid and listening while my back was turned making coffee, when I heard Ayoob, I immediately turned around and thought JD will love this.
Like Vivi said, that custom fileworked clip was a really nice mod.

Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Rumors of my demise or imprisonment have been greatly exaggerated as my fellow Missourian "Mark Twain" used to say :D Yeah I've been as busy as a "beaver trying to clog up the Missouri River :eek: >> but I wouldn't have missed this thread even for the next KC Chiefs game coming up :rolleyes: >> and GOD Love Patrick Mahomes by the way :cool:
My fellow forumite, the well respected Doc Snubnose actually did a "meat test" with the Spyderedged version of the C-60 Massad Ayoob and the results were astounding. No it doesn't surprise me that Ms Joyce chooses the C-60 as her main EDC>> because I'm willing to bet that she isn't the only one at the GREAT SPYDER FACTORY to select that model.
Actually I remember her saying that on an old "C-60 Ayoob" thread that I did over at Bladeforums some time back>> so no this is no surprise to me at all. The Spyderedged and PE C-60 Massad Ayoob model is way overdue for another Sprint Run :spyder:
Re: BladeHQ video and Joyce
Love it!!!?? I'll go one further than that>> Because the C-60 is one of the Spyderco models I live for :cool: It's high time the C-60 in Spyderedge or plain edge either one gets to be in the neon lights.
Now just think of what a C-60 Ayoob would be like in a newer/better blade steel ( especially in Spyderedge :cool: ). I would even love a new C-60 Ayoob in plain edge with one of the supersteels. It's so unfortunate that this most iconic model has got such little fanfare in the past year or so. It's time for that to change>> and I mean quickly :cool:

The Ayoob is a model I would like to try out sometime, especially in SE. Unfortunately I came to the Spyderco party a bit late.
JD, what kind of upgraded steel would you want for a serrated Ayoob? H-1?

SE H1 and Titanium sounds like a winner.

OK Landon you want to see "PERFECT" here is the scenario for PERFECT. The return of the C-60 Ayoob in PE & SE both>> the PE C-60 Ayoob in M390 and the SE version of the Ayoob in XHP..
