I think it has been long enough and I've finally decided. Unless I change my mind I want to get a Spyderco Chaparral LW SE first.

Nice choice! Everything I've heard suggests the SE Chap is a slicing machine.

Me too. Ordered one discounted, from a local shop, but they had to order it themselves, so it is still all very uncertain. I think i will get a custom screw set for it in blue.

Im trying not to buy any more knives for a few years... but... i got the email for the Asher spiro TI liner lock drop (S90V). Since my bday is in a few months and my wife is always looking for ideas from me, i sent her the link, and she put the order in..now the question is will she wait to give it to me when it gets here or will I get an early gift..

Well I just pulled the trigger on the first impulse buy of 2025. The Big River got me with a limited time deal on a Cold Steel Tiger Claw

I have been using a karambit for awhile, but most of the time a fixed blade isn't easy for me to hide, so I rarely carry one unless it's jacket weather.

When out and about where I feel a SD knife is prudent, for the last couple of years I have carried a Spyderco Civilian, but that knife is tough to deploy being tip down. I really dig that knife and would NOT want to be on the receiving end. However, I have been in the market for something more robust.

So a folding karambit sporting a serrated edge and a triad lock for under $90?... Yeah, ok ya got me Should be here Monday.
