I promise my intent is not to be a dick, but you received a tax refund after filing your tax return.

Why do you have two stems on that bike? Maybe you could mount a handlebar bag, or something.
Hoping to get one of those VO tallstack stems (or whatever they call them) when I get the dough. Would like many more silver bits on bike. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8510/8...19c03b53_o.jpg Untitled by Lester.L., on Flickr |

A coyote 4? by Research Dynamics (RD) Looked into a little. It's apparently a ski company that got into MTB's for about 10 years back in the late 80's early 90's. They made some good stuff it looks like. |
It ain't handsome like ol' Dick, that's for sure.

Hah, I rebuilt my EDC a couple weeks ago and use Chain L on the pivot points. Worked better than gun oil.

I had chain J on hand. I've actually never oiled the pivot, and this thing has been in my pocket and in constant use for close to five years. Whoops.
Also has something to do with the fact that CRKT offers free rebuild kits for life. |

I replace the Teflon washers and just give mine a general cleanup every year, but I'm a little anal when it comes to knives.

This is what I carry. Got the last one for free in fact. Lost mine on BART (I think) and went back to the Big5 where I had originally purchased it, and the salesman and I had got to talking, I guess he liked me, so he just made me pay sales tax on a new one. It was the last one they had and also the display model, so it didn't come with a box? lol.

Knife-wielders:
How useful do you find carrying a knife? Anecdotes? I tried carrying a cheap pocket knife a couple times and wasn't into it. I hate having too many things in my pockets, and hardly used it. I use my keys to open boxes at work. I know there are times when it is a lifesaver but I have yet to experience a time when I needed a blade and wasn't able to find/make a suitable one. I have always assumed carrying an expensive knife was some sort of prop for dudes that like to pretend they're super handy and outdoorsy. |
If you were in a car that went off a bridge and had to cut your seatbelt, would you use a key?
I mainly use mine to cut things, like one time my shoe lace somehow tied itself around my pedal spindle, and I couldn't move my foot to untangle it, so instead of taking my shoe off in the rain I cut it and went on my way. The most useful time for me is cutting zipties which I have to do frequently. Edit: If the knife I carried wasnt so thin, light, and cool, I would probably not always have it in my pocket, but i barely notice its there. |
