Recently I acquired the Sharp Maker 204.



Initially, I had my doubts about its oft-mentioned excellence. However, now three weeks later, I am a believer. It is good. It lives up to its reputation and it is an invention that is also a marvellous piece of

engineering.



I must congratulate its designer and inventor, Sal. I understand that the Spyderco head honcho also designed the Military.



I have seen it, touched it but have the unfortunate luck of not owning one, yet. However I like what I have touched and seen.

It is unlike the other Spydercos.



Knives are really a very personal thing. The maker of a particular knife may feel that his knife is the best but it is really up to the end-user.



Coming back to the Military, I am certainly impressed with its design and its character.

Again, I have to congratulate its designer.

One day, I hope to shake the hand of the man who designed this splendid piece of equipment. I am sure I will be impressed with the man too, as I already am with his knives, especially the Military.

Hi Golok. Welcome to the Spyderco forum. thanx for the kind words and support.

Yes, the Sharpmaker and Military are my designs, but none of us ever do any of this alone. Spyderco accomplishments are a group effort. I'm pleased to be able to work with the group.

Samo my boy, how nice to hear from you!

Riding wild and free over there. Good for you.

Plain-edged Military. Now you really got my attention. Lay your hands on one for a song for me and you are my hero for life. ha, ha.

Continue to have a good time there. It is always nice to know a pal is having a time of his life somewhere anywhere.
