Re: What's your "dream" spyderco? What combo of design/materials would you love to see?

My dream knife would be a PM2 with a sheepsfoot blade similar to the Benchmade Griptilian with the opening hole. If I could really dream, it would also have a second standoff in place of the lanyard tube like the Yojimbo and a button compression lock like the Smock. That is my dream knife. Hopefully...

Re: Lambs Foot Manix

I wish that Spyderco would do more sheepsfoot blades. The Paysan has one, but not many others. I would love a PM2 sheepsfoot that had a blade similar to the Benchmade Griptilian with the opening hole. That would be perfect. Nicely done on your Manix.

Re: Paysan?

I was in the Spyderco outlet store last month talking to the guy in charge of the store and website about the Paysan. It is my grail and I have been waiting for quite awhile for a run of them. He said that they are expecting another run. He was not sure when because they are running behind. He sure ...

Re: My wife's knifes.

My wife does not share my love of Spyderco. She carries a Guardian Tactical OTF and a SAK daily and I just bought her a Uinta fixed blade for deer hunting. She also has a cheap CJRB folder in her hunting pack and that is her whole collection of knives.

Re: Mystery KnifeCenter Exclusive

I could be wrong but I don't think this one's going to be an instant sell out. There should be plenty of time to buy one if you want I hope you are right. Historically Cruwear and P3's go fast. I tried for that DLT Cruwear P3 and it froze their site. I tried for 30 minutes and could not get one. Bu...

Re: Mystery KnifeCenter Exclusive

I would love to have one, but I hate the "Surprise, it is dropping now" method of releasing exclusives. If you can't spend the day refreshing IG every 5 seconds or hoping the notification actually works you don't stand a chance and it is pretty crappy to tell people they have to spend thei...

Re: How many different blade steels do you own?

In folders I have 23 different steels. In Spyderco's I have 15 different steels.

I do not believe the lw Tenacious s35vn has been released in the US, yet. It may sell quickly when it does. When initially announced I was somewhat interested, and thanks to Wartstein with his reviews and photos I will definitely try to get one. I bought mine from the Spyderco website in I believe ...

Re: Colors - Talkin' Story - Marketing

To me color adds personality. I like blue. I currently have 9 blue Spydercos and I also have blue from other companies and have anodized things like clips and backspacers to make others partially blue. I even prefer a medium blue and have dyed and anodized some of my Spydercos to that color. They ju...

Re: Stickers in the box!?

I have several from my orders directly from Spyderco. They usually put one in. Not every time, but usually. I have even been lucky and got a calendar and a coin before. It is nice to get one, but I do not expect companies to send swag with their products.

Re: Just lost my grail M390 PM2.

Sorry for your loss. I lost my first really good knife. When I went into the Army in 1990 the only folders that were really common were belt sheathed Bucks and Gerbers with not so great steels and 2 hand opening. In 1991 after I got back from Iraq I found a place that had Spyderco Enduras and Rescue...
