Re: Stable edge steels (NOT TOUGHNESS)
Personally, I'd like to see 14C28N in some knives. It is tough like AEB-L/13C26, but is a stainless nitrogen steel.

Re: Tell Me About The Serrated Z-Cuts
Must have been a bad heat treat on a batch of knives. I have cut all sorts of food with mine and there has never been an issue. It isn't the first choice for harder things, but sometimes I am just too old and lazy to fish for another knife when the Z-Cut is at hand. I even regularly cut 1kg roasts, ...

Re: Tell Me About The Serrated Z-Cuts
I've never had an issue with onions, potatoes, carrots, whatever. I don't force the blade, I let the edge do the work. The Z goes through them like a light saber.

Re: Tell Me About The Serrated Z-Cuts
I have used these knives to cut roasts. They work amazingly. I have other knives for this job, but a few times these were within easy reach. No issues. Did a very fine job, even though this is not what they were designed for. Tomatoes and other fruit, plus vegetables are easily cut with one of these.

Re: Tell Me About The Serrated Z-Cuts
I think this is one of the best products, ever. I have two and will probably get another one. They cut through anything and because of the handle, knuckles don't make contact. This is a definite must buy.

Re: EMP Proof Mechanical Only Devices?
EMP can be produced by electromagnetic bombs (E-bombs), so there is no need for a nuclear attack. A Faraday cage would protect everything until the blast is past (milliseconds). As Jim Malone said, a simple microwave would protect smaller things, such as a laptop, iPad, cellphone, car remotes, etc. ...

Re: Family friendly jokes
A man is in bed with his wife when there is a knock on the door. He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it’s half past three in the morning. “I’m not getting out of bed at this time,” he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows. “Aren’t you going to answer that?” says his wife. So he ...

Re: Family friendly jokes
There were two men working for the city. One would dig and dig and dig until a deep hole in the ground appeared. The other would come behind him and fill the hole with piles of dirt. The two men worked furiously: one digging a hole, the other filling it up again. A man was watching the pair from the...

Re: frankensalt - yay or nay?
Spyderco has their new coating, so I expect to see all sorts of color combos.

Re: Any Double Bladed Desires?
If Spyderco makes another double bladed knife, perhaps they should keep it humpless and have both blades on the same end of the handle.

Amazing. I like the design. I assume you will lighten the handle?
