Re: Idea for new knife! Lightweight Yojimbo2

An FRN-handled Yojimbo 2 would also make a great platform for a Yojimbo 2 Salt (in either LC200N or MagnaCut), as I think bi-directional FRN would maintain its "grippiness" over time much better than textured G10 (my Yojimbo 2's handle scales, while still providing enough grip, have gotte...

Re: Unusual, and/or Paranormal Events

A Vampire Story (Paranormal Round Table channel) This is quite a good account. Unfortunately, it looks like it's been flagged by YouTube because of the subject matter (a possibly true account of a vampire-like being), even though the story contains no inappropriate content. Otherwise, it would have ...

Re: Unusual, and/or Paranormal Events

How Reincarnation Really Works! (What You Need to Know!) (Christina Lopes, DPT, MPH channel) I came across this video randomly while scrolling. This is actually an EXCELLENT video discussing the process and purpose of reincarnation. Much better than I was expecting it would be. I don't think I've se...

Re: Unusual, and/or Paranormal Events

"Las Vegas is a Haunted Portal!" (The Black Culdron channel) Interesting stuff. I've only been to Las Vegas 3 times; when I was 6, again at 8, and then for the last time at 15 (in 1978). There really wasn't much for a kid to do in Vegas back then, except playing in the pool, and going to C...

Re: Unusual, and/or Paranormal Events

"They Almost Took My Mother" (What Lurks Beneath channel) This is an excellent interview. It's nearly 2 hours long, but if you are interested in someone relating his own lifetime of (very bizarre) paranormal experiences in detail, I highly recommend this one, even if you have to listen to ...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread

I may be wrong, but I imagine that with a partially-filled water bottle, the water inside could potentially increase the centrifugal (?) force of the blow, almost (but not quite) like a sap. I think so, but the water sloshing around might also make it slightly more difficult to handle. A full 1L st...

Re: Any Double Bladed Desires?

I wonder if Spyderco ever considered making a linerless, dual-bladed slipjoint folder. Similar to a UKPK. That might be good for places where lock blade knives are restricted, and allows the carrier to have the equivalent of two knives (PE & SE) on them at all times. Maybe each blade could be 2...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread

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 of...

GSP Teaches Side Kick to Knee, that Doesn't Work, According to Many MMA Fans. Interesting. Of course the side kick to the knee is dangerous to the recipient. So is the oblique kick.

Re: Cold Steel Talk

Many thanks for your excellent and very thorough review of your first impressions, Rick! It cements the idea that one day, if and when I ever get back into buying any more knives, the AD15 Lite will be on that list, if it's still being made by then! I have another question: How is that Mini Recon 1...
