Re: CPM Spy27 in a Post-Crucible World

I would imagine that some Spy27 models will be much sought after in the future once no longer in production. The fewer made the more collectible.

Re: Endela inspired Salt

I think it would be cool, especially as a wharncliffe it could fill a gap in the lineup.

Re: China

I don't avoid buying products made in China, I mean I'm typing this on some made in China tech. But knives are sort of a hobby/collectors item for me, and not just a tool where I want to maximize specifications for dollars. When it comes to knives, I'm a Spyderco enthusiast because your designs and ...

Re: The Knife Joker is closing

I liked seeing the Jokers unique exclusives, seeing Travis' chill videos about Spyderco releases, and regret that I never was close enough to visit the shop.

Re: The Stretch 2XL "Experiment"

You truly don't need liners as Spyderco had proven years/decades ago. Have you heard of a Pacific Salt failing?

Re: Salt crusted Salts. Loving it.

There's no perfect steel but with Spyderco having so many amazing steel options, one can come very close to getting the "perfect " steel for your lifestyle. Kayaking and ribeye sounds like a good one!

Re: Before I order from National Knives

I had a bad National Knives experience personally from the one purchase I made there. Reached out to Rob about it and got no response. Would have definitely ordered more from them by now due to the pricing and the fact they often seem to have sprints/exclusives/discontinued items still available ...

Re: Kapara s90v burlap micarta KnifeCenter exclusive

Should sell out sometime tonight or I’d be shocked. I’m going to sit this one out and kick myself later- this is a collectible edc spydie if there ever was one. But I have got to save some $ this summer!

Re: Wonderfully Workmanlike Wharncliffes!

Yessir, I will probably collect any future Delica/Salt 2 wharncliffes. Have 4 so far with my favorite being Salt 2 LC2000n wharnie. It hits all my boxes of being a powerful cutter, precision tip, easy to sharpen, stainless, strong ambidextrous lock, easy opening, closed bias, easy to carry ...

Re: Last Minute Decision

Bolster Sierra Nevadas so variable conditions with some unexpected storms. I got snow on trail twice last August. I have never done a trip with no stove, but I would like to try it sometime. This looks like an interesting solution to sort of warm the food you cold soak: https://www.gossamergear.com ...

Re: Another thread for discussing a Chaparral XL - now that it came one step closer to become a reality

I would have to try one I think. I am happiest with FRN backlocks, but never justified the Chap as I have that size range covered

Re: Delica Carbon Fiber Black Cruwear

Thanks for posting guys. fail on the sellers part not to show off those full liners. Ah, the more I think about it, the more I want one. The only thing is I could get for less money a salt Millie or pm2, a cru wear stretch, or pretty much any spydie I desire. But this one is highly collectible!

Re: keep 1 forever, try 1 out, retire 1...

1. Stretch 2XL Salt - pretty much all I carry
2. Military 2 Salt - just wanna try it
3. SpyMyto - seems like lionsteel already makes it for cheaper
