Marco, you don't need a sheath to carry that sweet Parker. Just log into eBay and search for "Vintage 1990's M.C. Hammer Pants"

Hammer Time.......

... Well DM, ... it's still "Hammer Time" today

The thumb ramp and the grippy scales combine to give a very confident grip.

I can choke up on the blade thanks to the jimped finger choil and thumb ramp. Another very confident grip.

And the Compression Lock is super easy and enjoyable to use. Push the black tab sideways to unlock the blade.

It might look like a prehistoric creature but in use, it’s a slam dunk winner. Made at the Spyderco factory in Golden, Colorado.

Thanks, Garry, I'm not a big fan of those knives and it's due to them having "a couple of tools", but I've seen a newer and larger model with just a single spear blade that I find attractive, thus my request as to what your knife has.

Marco, you don't need a sheath to carry that sweet Parker. Just log into eBay and search for "Vintage 1990's M.C. Hammer Pants" ... I suspect those "Hammer" pockets are more than adequate to fit your Parker folder, and maybe a switch blade too...

Thanks, David, no one knew what I meant when I posted the words, albeit incorrectly, but I've since changed it.

Your friend in Southeast Missouri also likes that one!! Great photo too. Carry it in good health!!

A full blade!

Thanks for the comments, that may be the largest spear blade on any knife that I own. I could eat peas off of it, if I liked peas.

SwissBuck (Wenger for Buck) Trekker
Knipex 125mm Pliers Wrench
LKL Innovations Swiss Tech Pocket Technician (made in USA from tool steel--not the current China pot metal ones)
Church-key stile paint can opener (which I carry as a general purpose pry tool--lost my good Snap-On AGAIN--time to get a high-vis one on order Tuesday)
Klein 32611P pocket screwdriver. I chose it for a couple reasons--one, the screwdriver shaft flips around to slide into the handle, with a magnet on the other end--it's maybe 4" closed. Also, it's got most of the Phillips and slotted bits, as well as hex that I use regularly. No Torx, however. Like most of the new Klein items found in plumbing--the focus is plumbing, and I guess set screws on fixtures. However, I feel Klein is branching out too much for Lowe's (not to mention cutting steadily back on Made in USA).

thanks , glad to be here and looking forward to many button pushing , have a good one

Hey Roger! to AAPK!
What you're have trouble resisting is commonly referred to as ""click-therapy", and it's the pleasure one gets from simply holding, examining, fondling and the most important, firing our automatic knives for no other reason than the sheer enjoyment it brings. You need to be addicted to auto knives in order to get a craving for some "click-therapy", but not to worry bud, you're hooked! lol!
The results of participating in this hobby can but not necessarily will, end-up with broken springs that certainly can be a PITA, but not overwhelming by any stretch. Many models nowadays can be self-served with spring replacement, and for those that can't there are many mechanics that can do the repairs for reasonable prices.
Enjoy the forum, bud, you're gonna fit right in!

I have a 112 and a 110. I really like them both, but they are very sensitive to getting dirty and failing. It doesn't take much of anything getting into the action and causing a misfire. Keep it clean and lubed and it works fine. And I can't resist pushing the button either.

Nice choice on both. Love the little Sig. I have a few myself. Guns are my other weakness along with knives. Why not, around here they put them in the same shows.

Nice knives all!! Just a simple and sweet Colonial today.

Loving that mug and knife, ww.

Starting the workweek with a 5" KK 1898 ¾ Toothpick. You could really get into those molars with this baby.
