    Ah, yes, Spyderco. Very nice. I have the Spyderfly, a butterfly knife. I think there might be some pics of it with some pens in one of my albums in my profile.

    I bought one of those Centofante 3's for my son for Scouts, that is a great little knife. I thought about getting one for myself. Though I prefer thumb-studs to thumb-holes.

    Hi there Leo! I too am a Leo...small world because I am a knife collector too. I have a Spyderco Harpy and a Fred Perrin Street Beat also sold by Spyderco.
    The Fred Perrin Street Beat is the bottom knife shown here:

    And the Harpy:

    The Harpy has been my EDC for nearly 20 years.

    Best regards

    Hi Will
    When you say the second knife, do you mean the Syderco Harpy or the second one in the first picture, the Fairbairn - Sykes Commando knife. The Harpy has been my most useful knife ever. The commando knife is probably the most famous combat knife particularly of WWII. Was your Dad in the Armed Forces Will?

    I meant the one in the later half of the OP's picture (bottom half.) My grandpa fought in WWII, but my dad is a yacht designer...

    That is really scary... and probably illegal in the UK. I know butterfly knives are.

    It gets creepier in the context of thread necromancy...

    "What are moon-letters?" asked the hobbit full of excitement. He loved maps, as I have told you before; and he also loved runes and letters, and cunning handwriting, though when he wrote himself it was a bit thin and spidery.

    Boss gave me one of these and I have been EDC'ing it for a few weeks now. I kind of like it. Definitely handy if not a bit bulky.

    not illegal to own in the uk at all or use if you have a good reason , a knife is a tool as useful and older than the pen .

    hard to think of a good resonable use for that blade but if you can think of a reason or have reason , you can legally carry any knife in the uk .

    i carry everyday the spyderco ukpk or delica which is a more non knife person freindly looking , spyderco are an excellent company i dont know pens well enought to name a similar company but i bet there is one , great ergos , blades steels , handle materials,designs , packaging and customer care.
