View Full Version : A tribute to Jim Henson??

As a kid, I have watched many movies. My favorites were made by Jim Henson (Muppets).
My favorite Henson movie is "The Dark Crystal".
Zabrewolf thought I was nuts when I pointed this out, but many Spyderco knives remind me of the bad guys (Skeksis): the shape of the blades in particular
What do you think?

Hi MissUkie
Thats funny...Some of the "kids" (mostly young wannabe-ganster types) that I work with calls me the duckguy, because of the shape of my Delica.
As an x-animator I know Hensons work and I think you´r right...Maybe there should be a Henson pride, for us that once were kids!!
An Big Bird Pride....I´d go for a miss Piggy Pride.

I'd buy a Spyderco "gonzo" in a heart beat and I'd buy three other spyders just to thank Sal for doing it. Honestly thought I'm not sure Spyderco'd want to get into the tribute market as you'd soon wind up like Zippo, slapping anything you possibly can on your handles. Dunno. Just a thought.

I know it wasn't done intentionally. Zabrewolf says I have a strange way at looking at things. Now I have proof. I'm not the only one.

Sorry MissUkie,
I'm just glad I didn't post this one...oops!
DOH!! Too much coffee tonight! Slipped and hit the post button. (An evil, almost Lecterian smile weaves its way across the demented Java's face....) Hmmmmm.. a good cup of Joe would go well with that bacon!! Seems all is not well in neither Muppetland nor Javaland.
Stay safe! (From Java that is!) Stay sharp <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Vox,
It’s my short week at work! Saturday’s great! I know your sister was promised to Al in a previous post. Rustle up a cousin or two; I’ll bring the Sam Adams and non-garlic snacks; heck I’ll even swing by the local Red Cross for a pint or two of Type A-neg, vintage 1975 for VW; and we’ll do Copenhagen (and I ain’t speakin’ toe-backy)
Fair Lady Glasshart,
Hmmmm…Sick puppy? Of those I have none, nor wouldst I darest cross that fine line in your presence. Kitties however, are another kettle of fish entirely.
Stay safe! Stay sharp! <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

I sent your pics to Shawn, the guys over there said that I "was a sick puppy." They thought the Miss Piggy one was the worst of all. <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
