The name, personifies Spyderco’s line of folding knives with clips. The verb refers to the physical action of being able to clip the knife to your clothing. We’re human and creatures of convenience. Minute by minute we create, adjust and are predisposed to gravitate to the tool that performs best and is easily applied to the task in front of us. Illustrating that instinctive quest for the best, explains the success of the CLIPIT knife. Almost all Spyderco knives are CLIPITs. The idea surfaced in the 1980s when Sal Glesser (Spyderco’s founder) imagined, then designed, a folding pocketknife with three revolutionary features: A clothing clip, a way to open the knife with one-hand (The Spyderco Round Hole) and serrations on a folding knife blade. These concepts lifted pocketknife function to a higher level. Clips shifted the knife’s weight from the bottom of a pocket to the top, attaching the knife inside so it sat/rode flat regardless of size and wasn’t as likely to be dropped or lost. The Spyderco Round Hole enabled the folder’s blade to open with one hand, leaving your other hand free. -
Best Factory Knives of Blade's First 40 Years
BEST FACTORY KNIVES OF BLADE’S FIRST 40 YEARS Table of Contents Chapter 1 Best Factory Knives 1973-1988 Chapter 2 Best Factory Knives 1989-2000 Chapter 3 Best Factory Knives 2001-2012 Chapter 1 Best Factory Knives 1973-1988 They may have been your father’s knives or your grandfather’s knives—they may even be your knives. To help celebrate its 40th anniversary, BLADE released a three-part series recognizing the top 40 factory knives over that span (1973-2013). The first chapter pinpoints the top factory knives from 1973-88. We compiled a list of some top factory knives over that stretch and submitted them to a panel of veteran knife observers and asked them to select their top five to 10—or however many they felt comfortable choosing. Though “top factory knives” can be subjective, we determined a top factory knife is one that excelled in terms of setting a standard that other companies attempted to emulate, and/or excelled in quality of craftsmanship, originality and creativity—or both. We no doubt inadvertently omitted knives that should be included. As a result, we asked our panel members to add those and rank them in their lists, too. The panel members: knife writers James Morgan Ayres, BLADE field editor Kim Breed, Durwood Hollis, Blade Magazine Cutlery Hall-Of-Fame member Bernard Levine and Mac Overton; Pete Cohan, former curator of the National Knife Museum; writer/photographer Terrill Hoffman; Roy Huntington, editor of American Handgunner Magazine; and Rick Thronburg of William Henry. Some of the knives ranked herein were made before 1973. -

It also means that crowd reduction: a financial disaster. Any dip in any of these many table-holders of past Shows would not get a table.

November 2006 Mammoth Or Mastodon? by Dan Westlind I Get This Question All the Time So I Hope to Shed Some Light on the Subject
Ulster Military Knives The First Knife I Made Getting A Handle On It Ford Swauger Club Knife Morseth Knives Application Form Mammoth Or Mastadon? Ourinternational membership is happily involved with “Anything that goes ‘cut’!” November 2006 Mammoth or Mastodon? by Dan Westlind I get this question all the time so I hope to shed some light on the subject. Mammoths and mastodons were two entirely different animals. Mammoths and mastodons both belong to the order of Proboscideans, the same family that elephants belong to. Mammoths and mastodons both lived in the same areas at the same times, during and up to the end of the Pleistocene Era. The mastodons seemed to be more prolific and predominate during the early Pleistocene Era, whereas the mammoth was more predominate during the later part of the Pleistocene Era (about 10,000 years ago). Most, if not all, the ivory that we get comes from the mammoth. We had two different mammoths in North America, the smaller wooly mammoth ( Mammuthus primigenius) and the larger Columbian mammoth (Mammuthus columbi). The wooly mammoth was more suited for the northern climate and is rarely found in the continental U.S. whereas the Columbian mammoth is found all over North America. The teeth from the mammoth and mastodon are quite different, but the tusks were similar in shape and size. Since most of the mastodons died out earlier in the Pleistocene Era, it is very rare to Age also plays a huge part as how old was the animal when it died find an actual mastodon tusk. If one is found, it is usually and how mature were its tusks. -

I asked the reason and was told that Wichita had a law that no fixed I've not been without a blade in my pocket from the time I was a blade knives were to be allowed on airplanes. That knife was totally small boy. I started "carrying" young, and I've got the scars to show legal from the federal laws at that time. The knife in question had been retired after I carried it long enough to wear the original 3" blade down to around 2-inches. It had a sheath with a clip on it, and it had been carried on the document pocket in my brief case for at least six years. It had been through most of the larger airports in our country, and not once been questioned. -

This Ferris folder has a gum lancet at one end, looking like a tiny hatchet. At the other end is a slender scalpel. The gum lancet was used, as you might guess, for lancing gum abscesses. Abscesses were common when toothbrushes were not. The gum lancet is aptly named. Just looking at it makes my mouth ache. The design must have been precisely right because identically-shaped lancets were in use a long time—from the late 18th to the early 20 th centuries. Even so, my dentist didn’t recognize the instrument. He could not guess its function until I told him the name.
