You’d be amazed at what doesn’t get issued And the last pocket knife I’d ever want would be the one they would have given me.

The SpyderHole (yes, that’s the name and yes, I feel dumb saying it) is, for me, the most intuitive single hand opening method. It’s easy to use quickly with either hand, with any finger, with or without gloves, etc. I don’t mess with serrated anything, so I can’t help there. You’ll love an...

That Spyderco leaf blade shape is pretty amazing. The Spyderco Endura is one of the best knife designs ever made, and is even better in a full flat grind.

That’s a Byrd, Spyderco cheapest line. Decent for what they cost, but I’d encourage you toward a higher end model.

I had a Benchmade Infidel and it was a neat toy. It was too unreliable and fragile for a daily use knife for me at that point in my life. I had two different Microtechs, an LUDT and a SOCOM. Beautifully made knives, but just too “Tactical” for me. Fat, bulky, but damned well made. The only...

I’ve had a couple of Emersons, and was unimpressed. Maybe they’ve improved in the last 20 years, but neither I had were any nicer than a decent Benchmade or Spyderco. The chisel grind they use is absolute silliness, and the wave is a gimmick. Zero Tolerance makes some great stuff, I just don’t...

I’ve lost a few, but that’s just the price you pay. I’d still rather carry a decent knife.

I can buy DeWalt at four different stores in town, each of them have a very large selection and competitive pricing, and none of them are Lowe’s or Home Depot.

I carried large pocket clip folders for years, with Spyderco being my preferred flavor. I used them and abused them and never found anything I liked more. That chapter of my life is over, and I’ve found that I can get just about everything I need done with a traditional folder. My current...

Luckily, my kids knew better than to use that word before they were that old.

What, are you 12? Seriously?

I’ve only got two…and they look like someone conquered a small nation with nothing but the handles…. But damn I like them.

You say that like it’s a bad thing. I don’t need a “balanced” screwdriver with some ***** looking handle on it. I like the Tekton hard handles in my drawer, just like the Snap Ons and Matcos next to them. I haven’t destroyed one of the “butter soft” drivers yet, but I also don’t use...

If I wanted Wittes, I’d buy Wittes. I don’t, so I won’t.

A bit dramatic…but just a bit. As much as I hate change, my dislike for the company has little to do with the actual drivers themselves. My larger issue is that they used these drivers as their flagship in their “We love making tools in the USA” campaign nonsense. As soon as they squeezed...

Nice! May be time for my first MAC order..

I’ll never not post this when the timing js right…

Sure was easy when it was easy….

There’s that whole “Tekton strives to increase their American made content” showing up again….

Why do you do this?
