Go Large--The BF Big Folder Thread

"...very long time....", Chip? Really?

Many thanks to our friend, Dadpool , BTW, for his diligence in helping to keep this thread alive. I haven't been over here for a very long time either, just got caught up with what I've missed, and have a couple recents to share. This one doesn't quite make it over the bar at a mere 3.75", but this Spyderco Vallotton SubHilt is one big, honkin' piece of thick-handled and -bladed cutlery at 6.25 oz. Unbelievably smooth too.

My latest, from last week, easily surpasses our blade-size threshold and is long, lean, and thoroughly elegant. This Rainmaker is my second Olamic--my first being a 247 Wayfarer--and almost surely will not be my last.

Love the Vallotton. My 1st Spyderco.
Couldn't agree more. Built like a tank, with incredible tip strength and smooth as silk...

What happened to your lockbar insert screw?

Love the blue on that one...

Very nice!

Good eye!
I just now noticed!
It must've fell out when I dropped it yesterday.
I didn't even notice!
Man, I can't believe it fell out that easy!

Well...

That sucks!

At least now you know to look for it or get another coming.

That does suck. Man, just can't believe it came out.

*Edit*
Carrie at The Ranch already sent me a tracking number for a new screw.
That's great service!

Also posted this in the “Recent Acquisitions” thread, but it fits here, too. This beastie replaced one I sadly let go years ago...

Why must you show me these things?

I finally caved and bought a 4-Max Scout. I couldn't justify the sticker price (or even the used price) for the G10/20CV version, gorgeous as it is, but Grivory/AUS10 for $83 is a combo that I couldn't ignore. It is a 10.2-oz. TANK.

I celebrated by immediately dropping it 3' onto a wood floor (closed, thankfully!). Brushed a bit of dust off the Grivory, good as new; that's why I love this stuff.

I’m surprised I hadn’t posted this one here.

At a hair under 10” OAL and nearly 7.5 oz I think it just might squeak in
