      I carry this old Case from D a lot. I love not only the knife but its old supple leather belt sheath. Tonight's carry.

      Think it, be it.

        Love how Japanese this Ohta friction folder is. Hamon line?  Ironwood?  Carbon fiber backspacer?  Immaculate construction?  Killer pocket sheath? Yes please. My next compact EDC. This was something I have looked at for a while but for some reason was too dumb to cop, even at its very fair asking price. Really glad the universe kept her in place for me.

        Think it, be it.

            Never owned a pocket knife before but have just ordered one up for use at work.  Got fed up with cutting up fruit with a blunt table knife!

            Having read though this thread and done some other internet research it looks like Spyderco seem to be a good starting point for quality and value.

            I have ordered a "Sage 3", nice looking blue scales, handy size and relatively easy to keep sharp.

            Will post some pictures once it lands.

              Good choice! Spyderco has been and continues to be one of my favorite production brands.

                  Doug, I strongly suspect you are correct with that statement.

                  I had to reign myself back from getting a bit silly, Sebenza's and Hinderer's were starting to get "googled" a bit too frequently.

                  Looking forward to receiving the Sage 3, positive reviews all round and should be a good tool.

                  Feeling a bit guilty at buying an expensive knife for cuting up Oranges at work during break times!

                    Nice dd!  My first Spydie was in the early 90s.  I remember seeing Cliffhanger in the theater and seeing Stallone whip out the exact model I had and stab someone with it.  I only have one in the collection currently, as that one is long lost, but it sure did serve me well.  Love my remaining Spydie.  Looking to replace its G10 scales with ironwood.

                    Think it, be it.

                      I've been using my Spyderco Caly3 Sprint since having lost my Seb (and awaiting the Ti-Lock), and it's been a pleasure!..

                          Very happy for you Seul!!! Have you already ordered the Ti-Lock? If not, I see some new IH/Beer in your not so distant future.

                            I was SO happy for Brooks when he found his again (his wife had washed it! So cute!), but I'm even happier finding mine...  🙂

                                    Hiroaki Ohta. If you google this term it will show you his personal page as well as the many retailers online who sell his wares.

                                    Enjoy!  They shipped it yesterday I am anxiously awaiting this piece.

                                      Ohta is top notch, you will not be disappointed,  I have not handled another knife that has a better fit & finish.

                                        Playing with a Ti-Lock again…  🙂 The clip makes it easy to attach your knife to say a thick flannel shirt without having to apply pressure... Very practical!..

                                            Mastered it in about 5 minutes... THIS THING IS SO QUICK  😞
