My thumb is killing me!! Love it!!
That is hilarious! Seems only TROOPERS and real men can handle Gayle Bradley 1!

The GB1 is the beefiest knife I own. It totally blows my mind that I went this long without it.
When I think of tough, thick, heavy folders, I never dreamed the GB1 would be a contender for such description. It is. Gayle Bradley was not kidding around when he designed it.
You know what's worse? Having had a couple of them, selling both, and going for a few years without one.
Amen to that. I miss these often...
Thanks FP, I don't feel quite as bad after seeing your pic - some real beauties there.

Dang, this thread keeps popping up again and again. Just got a mantra2 from a really nice deal but the gb was sort of the first high cost knife from spyderco that caught my eye when I got into knives. Mind you, at that time they were selling for 300+. So now that they are somewhat available and more reasonably priced I always come back to looking for one but always hesitate...
Beautiful knife!
I hesitated too.....for a long time, thinking I would regret or realize a mistake. I've had my GB1 for about 2 weeks now......it has not left my pocket since. Indoors, outdoors, running on the track (yep), work, playing with it while watching tv. I'm serious.....this knife is awesome!!!
My PM2 might be very jealous right now but I wouldn't know. It's in the knife drawer.

What do you use to prevent the rust?
