My father in law calls it a 'Chico', it's just a rusted out wreck behind the barn... but it looks cool as hell! I'll ask him for more info when I see him and send ya a pm!

....I like Terzuola's designs, and I'm a fan of American and Japanese Spydercos. The weird grind was kind of a bonus, since it made it a little more of an oddball....

Almost the same here but I have to tell you: this little fella is wicked stabber, and once the blade is in the material, you can just tilt it and rip up with the hollow grind... I tried this in few cardboard boxes and in some old carpet rolls that are lying around but as you said - I don't see any real life advantage of it...
I see yours came just as mine - the edge is not straight at all, I had to fix this and also keep in mind - the flat grind part is tapered - it's thinner towards the hollow grind and wider towards the tip, it's a b!7c# to put decent edge on it but is doable... I'm still working on mine, but it is razor sharp now...

I love it anyway... :D

Nice work on that edge, mate! And definitely better photo than mine.

I just got mine yesterday afternoon, I still haven't sharpened it, just a little touching up on a strop.

Post it here please, if you post a side shot I should be able to tell you something about it too, old trucks specifically are what got me to become a mechanic in the first place. :thumbup:

Nice setup. I have that watch but only have the satin Manix 2. Those DLC ones are pretty nice looking. Really so paired with that watch.

My first G shock was a similar model without the blacked out face. First spyderco was the satin Manix 2. I just broke that watch and gave the knife to a buddy for a deployment. Replaced them both with the the blacked out versions. I'm like the upgrades.

I'm pretty sure that is a Dodge Power Wagon.

Give me some time to take a shot at the year.

Okay. I'll guess it's a WM-300, sold from 1958 to 1968, and nearly unchanged in appearance during that time.

Where did the headlights go?
