      My modest collection:

      Spyderco Sage III, Sandstorm custom folder (Carbon fiber! woo), & Swiss Army knife I've had since I was nine. Not pictured is a Kershaw scallion that lives in the coin pocket, and a Swisstool Spirit in a belt pouch.


      …I'll freely admit the colour was a major deciding factor for this one. 😛

        Thanks for posting that, I'm a big fan of seeing knives that have been carried for a long time, plus I'm a big Swiss Army Knife fan

        I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

          Getting a patina on a knife is almost as much fun as watching the fades happen on a nice bit of denim.

                Tell me about it…  😠

                Just ordered another Delica, this time from the UK (thanks for the link Michael)... Getting a refund for the one that didn't show up... Weary of ordering another one in the States (so much cheaper), so sucked it up and paid the extra...  😠

                  I really, really wish I hadn't seen this post…..

                  Haha do it!!! It's completely worth the price. I just contacted Cuscadi about getting their orange back spacer. Let's hope I'll be able to get it.

                  @DougNg:

                  Seems like most Spyderco collectors feel the Taiwanese made knives are the best in fit and finish. Want to see what all the fuss is about.

                  They're amazing. The Techno is my first and it won't be my last. I think their F&F is the best out of all the production places.

                  I'm thinking about putting some paracord on my Techno to give it a nice accent. What would you guys recommend? Also, let's talk about lube 😛 What do you guys use to keep your pivot nice and smooth?

                          Cool little bugger!..  🙂 I have another incoming so if anyone wants to buy this one… I am adding the custom fee so preferably someone from €urope, as they cost less than what I'm asking the States...

                                  I've used mine all day at work (buyer would get the NIB incoming one of course!!!)… My hands are a couple of millimeters too small (curse my delicate female hands!), but it works nonetheless... AWESOME knife, both in looks and performance... That grip is magnificent, the curve of the knife, and holy cow does it come with a razorsharp edge...

                                  I think I'll be picking up some more Spydercos in the (near) future... This is one of the best entry-level folders out there imo, both in price, size, and quality-wise... Made in Japan to boot!..

                                        I was the same way. Trust me, don't let the "Made in Taiwan" stamp fool you. The F&F on my Techno is absolutely amazing. This thing is built like a tank.

                                        I got an email from Cuscadi about the Orange back spacer and it is € 25 shipped to the US. I thought it'd be a lot more! 🙂

                                          Thanks for the advice. They are indeed taking it back. I will make sure to recommend them, and purchase a knife through them soon…
