 | Spyderco Dragonfly knife: Airweight Utility Definitely a good choice for your smaller every day carry (EDC) duties, the Spyderco Dragonfly is a svelte design. SUPER light at just 1.2 ounces, the Dragon is a forget-you-have-it-on knife. That's because Spyderco wisely dispensed with any attempt to add stainless steel liners to the Dragonfly (thank you!). This knife compares favorably against another favorite EDC, the excellent SOG Flash 1 assisted opener. The 2" VG10 (or AUS8) leaf shaped blade is flat ground and will provide superb cutting performance. Be advised that the Dragonfly is a small knife and may be too small for many cutting tasks... for package, letter opening and the like it excels. It arrives to you razor sharp as all new knives should. The blade deploys quickly, locks up adequately tight, the Zytel handle is comfortable, and the integral clip holds adequately. Improvements could include jimping on the thumb ramp and choil area, faster deployment (will speed with time I think), and a small metal clip (that would hold tighter), and cheaper price (it's overpriced for what it is). But in many ways the Dragonfly is an excellent, easy-to-carry small EDC blade. Likability scale: 8 out of 10 |
 | Spyderco Lava READ HERE FIRST. This vid is available in higher quality, click "Watch in high quality", which is right below the "Views" indicator. I had a hard time buying this one. Lack of money + expensive hobby = :-( Just like my Sharpmaker, once I actually bought & handled it, I never looked back. The Lava is people friendly, yet also a micro self defense knife. A bit of a weird combo, I know. But it works surprisingly well. Ergos are fantastic, little flat ground blade slices very well. On many/most all steel handled knives, the grip is a bit slippery, but the has a massive choil which works very well. How would any sub 2 inch folder be of use as a SD knife? Well, the Lava has two big things going for it. 1. Excellent grip. The handle practically attaches itself your hand. 2. Very well though out opening system. The way the handle and Spydie hole is situated makes the knife "pop" into different grips. Overall, a great knife. |

 | Spyderco Dragonfly I have several Spyderco's but my Dragonfly is my favorite, because if the smooth action,the choil, and the easily depressed lock bar. When it looks like I'm wrist flicking it, I am using my index finger to open the blade slightly to overcome the spring pressure, and then flick it open. |
 | I come and stand at every door - acapella harmony The poem by Nazim Hikmet was first adapted as a folk song by Pete Seeger. The Byrds later covered it. I listened to the Byrds version this morning, and decided to warm up my voice by singing some harmonies to the tune. I simply recorded three different vocal tracks without any practice - as a result, it has a handful of mistakes. But it came out pretty good in large part if I do say so myself. |
 | Kershaw Needs Work The Needs Work is a good example of how Kershaw brings us some fresh design in a solid knife that's priced well. If only it had a choil! |
 | Antaine Mac Dhonnhadha - Amhran Mhuighnse (Mhaínse) - Ardán Dhá mbeinn trí léig i bhfarraige Nó ar sléibhte i bhfad ó thír Is gan aon neach beo 'bheith i mo ghaobhar ann Ach an raithneach glas is fraoch An sneachta dhá shéideadh anuas orm 'S an ghaoth dhá fhuadach dhíom 'S mé a bheith 'comhrá le mo Teaimín Bán Níorbh fhada liomsa an oích'. 'S a Mhuire dhílis, céard a dhéanfas mé, Tá an geimhreadh seo 'teacht fuar 'S a Mhuire dhílis, céard a dhéanfas mé, Leis an teach seo 's a bhfuil ann. Nach óg, a stór, a d'imigh tú Le linn na huaire breá' Nuair a thosaíonns an chuach ag seinm cheoil, Is gach duilliúr glas ag fás. 'S dhá mbeadh mo chlann sa mbaile agam An oíche a bhfaighinnse bás, Óra, thórróidís go fiúntach mé Trí oíche agus trí lá; Bheadh na píopaí geala cailce orm Na ceaigeannaí is iad lán, 'S thabharfadh Páraic Mór go Maínis mé Nó is garbh a bheadh a' lá. Óra, gearraigí amach mo chónra dhom As fíorscoth gheal na gclár, Má tá Seán Ó hEidhin i Maínis Bíodh sí déanta óna dhá láimh. Bíodh a' clóca 's a' ribín inti, Is iad go ródheas ar mo cheann. 's go bhfuil triúr ban óg ó shléibhte Le mé a chaoineadh os cionn cláir. Ar dhul thar Inse Ghainimh dhaoibh Bíodh a' bratach ar a' gcrann, Ach ná tugaigí go Leitir Caladh mé Mar ní ann atá mo dhream, Ach tugaigí siar go Maínis mé An áit a gcaoinfear mé go hard, Beidh soilse ar na dumhchannaí Is ní bheidh uaigneas orm ann.

 | Dark Ops The Paul Basal Fighting Knife WE WILL NO MAN BEHIND! THE FINEST TACTICAL FIGHTING KNIVES IN HISTORY! Bearing the namesake and call sign of legendary Navy SEAL Paul Basal, this knife is the new choice of operational warriors throughout the globe! Designed by Basal with the Dark Ops design chief, it features all the critical items for a Modern Spec-Ops knife.

The top edge features a bone breaker and a radical, self-cleaning BlastRip� saw for carving survival notches in spears and anchoring notches for detonation cord. A pat pend. BarbSnap� cutter allows for rapid notching and snapping of interdiction wires in entry ops. An abbreviated top-hilt/bottle opener works with a new serrated palmstop, allowing for a reverse grip with an astonishing six linear inches of surface area!

The handle is made of a low-durometer, high tensile aramid composite that is impervious to everything from aviation fuel to Al Qaeda body fluids.

A prominent WhipLok� finger notch provides an axis point for hacking as well as 200 degrees of grip area, ideal with wet hands or when using gloves. The handles are field replaceable to blend with woodland, desert or black camo schemes. Quartz impregnated inserts provide extreme circumstances grip enhancement and are replaceable should decontamination be required.
