Possible book idea for Spydie knives

[James Y]

I was wondering if any new Spyderco books are planned. Of course, there is the Spyderco Story, but I would like to see a book on stories of how Spyderco knives (or perhaps even Spyderco and other co.'s) have served in life-saving or survival (not necessarily knife combat) situations, each story a different chapter. It could also include photos of the actual knives that were used.
I don't know...just throwing out an idea. I don't think there are any books at all currently on the market that deal exclusively with situations of knives used in the field in outstanding situations.

Sounds like a great idea! I would want a copy of that book.

I'll offer to write it if someone with more Spyderco experience will do the research. A collaborative effort with shared author's credit.

You might be able to do something like that by using both Spyderco forums and recording the info. Spyderco has quite a few stories. Might be able to get Joyce (?) to dig some up.

I'm open to suggestions and ideas. I'm also planning to write a book about Canadian knifemakers. Just returned from the first day of the Guild show in Toronto - WOW! Talk about a room full of awesome talent! And nice people! This was my FIRST visit to ANY knife show and I was VERY impressed.
