I'm a big fan of that, and the Zing. The Zing is like sub $40, and it's worth it for sure.

In other news, ever since looking at this thread, I've been toying around with getting into knives again. I still have a couple. I've been in love with this.

The only thing about that Benchmade customizer is that it makes the knife soooo expensive in comparison to buying one premade.

Still looking for another knife though. Thinking Spyderco Para2:

Black/Black


or

Black/Camo

This is true. But I was tossing the idea about getting the USCG logo on the blade, because my Wife is in the CG. Not only would it look cool, but it'd also help my case on getting it.

I've been looking around on SpyderCo, but their site drives me crazy.

See the problem is...the knife has ZERO practical use. I think that video poster is HIGHLY mistaken if he thinks that is a good self defense knife. Flailing around a 17 OAL folder is not a good idea. I also consider it highly unconcealable and 1 pound for a knife is A LOT.

Also want to point out there aren't very many states with a ZERO limit for blade length, which is what you would need.

Check out BladeHQ and look at the spyderco knives on there, easier to navigate

They use to send me catalogs all the time, dvds, of the annoying company owner doing a bunch of "tests" with his knives. None of them were very valid IMHO.

Also most of their knives use Aus-8 which is NOT a premium steel. Pretty much the very basic or intro steel, just like 440C.
