Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

Haven't found myself carrying much else since I picked this up. Really happy with the M2LW design and implementation, and thus far after a couple weeks of use and sharpening I've been enjoying magnacut a lot. Ditto that. The MC M2LW could easily be my last and only knife. It does so many things rig...

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

Welcome to the nuthouse, Ryan 0053! When I first heard of this "Sock Drawer" group, I thought it was a bunch of foot fetishists. But now you're telling me that among you are a sub-culture of underwear thieves? Sick! How does one join up? And suppose someone does want to join up, are our id...

Re: Crucarta Manix 2

I am interested in finding out about the liners as well :thinking The Manix 2 BURL S90V Sprint RUN (C101MGBRBBK2) did not have skeletonized liners. :bug-red-white Can't see skele liners in this photo... https://www.gpknives.com/media/catalog/product/cache/339f82189d9eed21c435d2b59225dacd/c/1/c101mp...

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

There’s actually a tool for this. I forget what it’s called though. If you happen to remember, I'd like to know. Drop me a PM? After experiencing the Native in Magnacut, I want it in Native Chief also :-)) Hope it will drop soon, the summer is already here. Me too! I paid SMKW for a MC NC November ...

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

MXG included two sets of screws of different lengths. They’re also too long but I may take them to the grinder for this purpose. When I need to shorten a screw a scootch or two, I chuck it in my drill and spin it while holding the end to ... whatever, grinder, belt sander, file, etc. Sometimes I ha...

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

FWIW I have to agree with you that everything I've ever needed a knife for while backpacking, a D'fly would have done it. Except maybe once when I hurt a knee and needed to carve a walking stick, but that was before I started using poles, so...yeah, I think a D'fly would cover anything I've ever ne...

Righteous. A lovely custom knife. Love it. Looks fantastic. I like the longer-than-normal tab for unlocking.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

Agreed...the Caly Jr. has an exceptionally nice lock release. This is the best spyderco/glesser edc folder design. Just beautiful, functional, and combines all of spydercos core design elements. The black micarta is THE version for me, but I also do like the unique texture for the frn version of thi...

No, I don't think it's fowl at all. I think you can pullet off. In fact, I think it's plucky.

Re: My Folding Mule Project

Thanks for the info on grinding the intricate bits. So it sounds like high speed (Dremel or Foredom) type tools with a combo of cutting discs, carbide bits, CBN bits, and diamond bits would get the job done. The freehand level of accuracy you're able to obtain, is remarkable. I can see how the tang,...
