Ok, I know...the word "tactical" is way overused and abused in the knife community, but I thought I would just throw it in the title because it sounded cool. Anyhow, I just wanted to share some quick thoughts about the Spyderco Resilience and the use it's been getting in my experience.
I personally rarely carry a knife that's more than 4 inches in length mainly because it's more blade than I need and it tends to garner unwanted attention when used in public. So, rather than let this great blade sit in the knife drawer, I employed it in the kitchen where it not surprisingly excelled in performance.
The long, full flat ground blade makes for an exceptional slicer and in this case I used it to dismantle a pineapple. The G10 handle scales also provided excellent traction for a firm grip with wet hands. Well, I'll let the pictures do the talking though as this knife made this episode of food prep easy and fun! I'll most definitely be putting this blade to use in the kitchen more often.
Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read!

Awesome stuff Tim! Must say I am loving the blog man, your approach is as refreshing as that pineapple!
ReplyDeleteThe Resilience looks like a useful blade in the kitchen, would love to pick one up. That said I think my next Spydie will have to be the Techno. As you suggested it almost begs to be compared with the Pipsqueak. :) Cheers,

Dan, thank you so much bro. It's truly a vote of confidence when I get a compliment from an experienced and superb blogger as yourself. I'm glad you don't mind the informal and off the cuff style.
DeleteThe Resilience is definitely a great blade for the price as the entire Tenacious line is. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing your thoughts and take on the Techno! Always great to hear from you man!
