"Is that a pistol in his jaw or is he just happy to see me?"

I'd argue that the number could be far less though - considering that unless the thread was policed rigorously and cleaned up frequently, there's a lot of fluff in there due to it not being an "official" forum exchange sub.

Still, I think it's a good idea, it just might take a bit for folks to realize it's there and make use of it.

Yes, we need more police in the forum for sure. Awesome point.
 
As an officer of the court, you should support the rule of law rather than lament its existence.

Everyone on this site freely agreed to abide by its terms of service, and frankly, its administration is far from suffocating. The fact that you have issues with me personally shouldn't cause you to lose sight of the facts.

Additionally, Spark has a right to run his business in the, (hopefully profitable), manner he sees fit. I don't see it as being overly restrictive. YMMV...and obviously does.

I try to ignore your little digs, but figured it was time to respond. I won't waste my time on it further.
 
I'm not sure what I stepped into but I think my point got lost in translation. No matter, it wasn't important.

Aside from that, considering that Busse, Buck, and CRK all have their own For Sale subs, I don't see why CPK couldn't as well. Would certainly keep things simple.

Wife just got hers replaced yesterday. Something hit the bottom right corner, and over a couple months it crept up and over to the other side...really spread over the last few weeks. Not too happy with the job Safelite did, but it's a 10 year old car that will hopefully be replaced soon.

I have issues with a super mod constantly shit posting. I have issues with a super mod calling Nathan in the middle of moving machinery to discuss forum rules and annoy him into allowing you to lock the exchange thread we have been using for years. It’s not personal, Elliot. For me. But chastising me personally as an “officer of the court” to invoke “rule of law” in a knife forum? Please. You’ve just confirmed that you’re in here playing cops and robbers. On a knife forum. Rule of law. Gimme a break. But no, it’s not personal. I’m reacting to what you’re doing. Not who you are. So do what you wish. You’re the one with all the power here.

First off, I had no idea that Nathan was on the road, and in the two minutes we spoke he and I were on the same page. I don't know where you get your info. Maybe he can clear things up there if he cares to. Embellish much? I feel like I'm witnessing the antics and theatrics of defense counsels past.

And it is obviously personal and has been for a long time with you. From your comments in W&C and elsewhere. I reached out to you a long time ago in an attempt to find out what your problem was, and then you made nice...before going back to the same little hit and run b.s. That's okay, I'm a grown man and I don't feel the need for your approbation.

As to my shit posts, feel free to ignore anything you care to...other than matters of forum policy. Seeya.

I've been stabbed by a few Spyderco comp locks in tip up that partially opened in my pocket. Never been nipped by my tip down Militaries.

Please understand that I am not in any way being a smart ass or questioning your comment. I simply don’t understand how a compression lock knife with no flipper to push a blade partially out is able to have the tip poke out enough to get stuck unless it is too loose. I have carried a PM for 2 decades and never had an issue. I stopped carrying flippers tip up after having one open up when I was squatting down to grab something and the crease in jeans pushed on the flipper.

Again, I am not questioning you- simply trying to see how it could happen with a properly working knife that does not have a protruding lever or release button.

From my vast experience as a factotum, Spydercos with their liner locks versus compression locks have always evoked some major emotions in people. I personally like the frame lock Mili with Ti scales and S90V steel. I feel like a total idiot now for having sold my spare one. Forgot the exclusive dealer's name now, but he was giving them away at some point because he had over ordered them. Their prices had even dropped from 295 to 195 on his website. The good ol' times!
