UPDATE: I just received the Spyderco 308CBN Webfoot as a gift. I can with a plastic stand that allows for a 15* sharpening angle vs the normal 20* of the Golden Stone and the Weboot. Total weight for both sharpening units and stand in their suede leather sheaths is 1.1lbs. More to come, including pictures and videos, once I get some personal and family business taken care of.

I used the 18" Ontario Machete and the 8" Cold Steel Drop Forged Survivalist in 52100 for some yard work that needed to be done at my Mom's house. The Machete has a more resilient coating than the previous version of the Machete I owned(and easier to clean), which I gifted to my friend so he'd have something for home defense, since he moved to Oregon from New York City, and dby jasonstone20 - New Knives, and New to You Knives
Ok, I have had the knife for a few days, and I am very happy with it. It came very sharp, as sharp as Spyderco knives come new, and as sharp as I can get a knife. I did some bush trimmng/chopping with it, and cooked lunch with it. I will get pictures and a full review once I have used it more. Just wanted to post a quick update here.by jasonstone20 - Video Reviews
I can probably come up with $100 of my own money to keep the Old Forum and the New Forum up and running, so that just leaves $100 that needs to be raised. I will be happy to take donations, I really think having the Olf Forum and Cliff Stamps work and research is important to the knife community. However, if there is no one t support it, then it won't be available unfortunately.by jasonstone20 - Announcements
Well, I got the Bowie Knife bug again, and i am adding to my collections. I just ordered the Cold Steel Drop Forged Survivalist in 52100 steel, and it is basically a Cold Steel Recon Scout, and the Recon Scout is basically a little shorter Cold Steel Trail Master:by jasonstone20 - Video Reviews
The price to keep the forum going if you guys want that option instead of going to a message board, is around $200. I don't have the money, and the site expires in June or July I believe, $200 will keep this site up and running for another 2 years.by jasonstone20 - Announcements
guys, I would start archiving both forums now, as the forum is going to be gone in a couple of months.by jasonstone20 - Announcements

Older_Spice, Well there is an Instagram messenger group as well as a Facebook Messenger. I started 3 of them because that is the only way I could be in contact with everyone, people have issues with one service or another, so they don't use it. We need to just pick one, and use that and that only. I am open to suggestions of what to use. Does anyone know how to use Mastedon or somethingby jasonstone20 - Announcements
Hey Curmudgeon!!! I am working on a project, I will post it here. I am going to do a live stream discussing pocket knife sharpeners. I am just waiting on getting enough money to buy the Spyderco Webfoot, as I already have the Golden Stone, and maybe a few others. I have discovered a lot of cool ones, not sure if I am going to buy them all. I am thinking the weekend would be the best time forby jasonstone20 - Announcements
alkali, Yeah, sorry it was all I could find. I am still kind of new to how this "Phorum" system works, I need to dig up some documentation on it and give it a read.by jasonstone20 - Video Reviews
Older Spice, Awesome, there is always a lot more of it in a presidential election year, I wonder why that is, wierd.by jasonstone20 - Announcements
alkali, Yeah, it looks like the same knives. Nice find.by jasonstone20 - General
alkali, hahaha, these are funny. I always have fun trying to understand the instructions from China, written is a weird English.by jasonstone20 - General
alkai, Yeah, unfortunately renewing the security certificate costs money, I am working on raising it, but I don't think this forum is going to be here much longer. I have maintained the forum, but I did not pay for it, or set it up, and the person who did is busy with other things, so I am not sure how much longer this forum is going to be up and running.by jasonstone20 - Announcements
Wolfgang, It is a very useful skill to have, it has helped me out more than once.by jasonstone20 - General
Wolfgang, Yeah, it really isn't that accurate. Add in political bias/censorship, and it gets dumber.by jasonstone20 - General
Mr. Wizard, Yeah, I just saw when I logged on, thank you for the notice, I will get on that.by jasonstone20 - Announcements

sal, alkai Well, it was paid for, not by me, to start, and then renew the site. I'd like to keep it up and going if I can, but I am not doing much knife related things right now.

alkali, i find this whole thing weird. If a guy wants to break his own knives and film it, then let him. I don't think anyone really expects hardened steel to deal with that abuse.by jasonstone20 - Video Reviews
