Congrats!

It’s good that the box says “MGCT”.

Hopefully, the blade also says “CPM MagnaCut”.
It does :tonque-out

Re: UKPK Magnacut?

I’ve sold a few knives this year and my interest in purchasing more knives is down … however, this knife I’ve been interested in since it was announced and I still am. With what is sounding like a drop out rate, hopefully they will be easy to find. Please post sellers when they arrive as you guys alw ...

Re: No. 3 in the collection - the DELICA®

If the handle fits your hand and the blade length will handle a majority of your uses … it is likely going to be a winner.

For some, they don’t like it..

And for others… they do.

For me, this…..

Re: What's your interest in the VG XEOS mule?

I've never had any issues with VG-10's corrosion resistance. I'd be more interested in a higher edge retention VG-10 than a higher resistance VG-10. But I suppose that's what SPY27 is for, yeah? Same. Likely not interested but then likely it will turn out to be something special. My preference ...

Re: Native Scout?

Background: I own five Native 5's. I recently picked up a brown G10 / M390 Native Chief because I was wanting something a bit longer. The Chief is great, but it's a bit too long, and by not adding height to scales and blade the proportions are thrown off. I strongly prefer the bias toward closure ...

I’m surprised USA manufacture companies have lasted, but glad they have.

Re: Upping the price.

Could be a blessing in disguise. Chances are if you're on this forum, you've already got more than enough knives in your collection to keep you busy/happy as it is...you just don't know it yet. Based on the poll that was going around a couple weeks ago, the amount of people scooping up 15+ knives a ...

Re: Upping the price.

If it was just Spyderco prices that increased I could handle it fine.

However, after paying taxes, insurances, utilities, groceries, and transportation …

Feels like I won’t be getting any Spyderco ... or anything material that isn’t truly necessary. :sad-but-relieved

Re: Lansky - What am I doing wrong?

With my clamp knife sharpening system I burr the edge to one side (use my fingernail to feel the burr, it will catch slightly. You will develop a better feel for it the more you do it. Also, use light reflecting off the edge to see if the edge is uniform). Then, work the burr side to create a burr ...

Re: How much did you spend on Spyderco brand products in 2023?

I didn’t total my purchases.

Between Native Chiefs, Delicas, UKPks, and mules I estimated $600-$799.

So far 2024, $0.00; but lots of great stuff on the horizon.

Re: Ok, could it be that LC200N fares better against Magnacut than some might think?

For me it is more a matter of “green” or “yellow”.

I do like the green one better and is what I go with.

However, I need a folder in Magnacut so I will pick up a yellow one.

Niggle on….
