Spyderco ROC...why?

Foldable small cooking knife?? Looks good for shrimp, squid, fish, veggies. Big cutting board with small items for us no-cooking cooks. I have a Calphalon (sp?) that I use for such tasks. Offset blade line from handle is handy.

Fantail Bar-B-Ques?

Looks like a handy, folding mini-cleaver.

My guess anyhow.

Not gonna be chopping your shallots in the campsite to add to your Elk shank using your D. Boone/Bowie/Mandingo WhackMaster TactiBush-Fari 2000.

I do wonder however, how'll I open my bottle of port?

I find myself liking it, but darned if I know what I'd do with it.

When I enlarge it and contemplate the dimensions:

I reconsider it a pretty decent camp-cook knife. Doesn't require a sheath, looks easy to tend the edge of, nice ergos to keep one's hands out of what's being chopped/diced.



Hell, for that matter - it' might work well in our kitchen as my wife has no respect for knife edges and once washed and dried can be tossed in a drawer without concern.

Now - to just reconcile that $167 down from $260... Yikes!

Well at 4oz it certainly isn't a good cleaver. I kinda like it just cause it is different, but I'm not sure it's any more of a kitchen tool than is my Paramilitary

I don't know. I have never seen a Spyderco that I couldn't find a use for, if I had one.... This does push the limits. Camp cooking knife would be my rationalization.
I haven't camped in many years.
Upper cabinet shelf knife that only I can reach. (Above first shelf)

I want one.

Some people used to like to carry straight razors as weapons.

Maybe it's a throwback to those times?

That is a ringer there rc. Leroy Brown had one in his shoe?

Cute novelty, but I wouldn't want it. My pockets get chewed up enough already by my Dragonfly Lightweight II.

Then again, I could see that the edge maintains the same profile for its whole length ... that might be appealing to someone when they want to sharpen it.

It's part of the whole let's collaborate with anyone and everyone trend that the major manufacturers have been using to boost interest in us knife nerds.

I dig it, Serge is a great designer.

Looks like a straight razor to me. That's how I would use it..
