Got a splinter out of my finger with this scalpel of a knife. What a great little blade it is

Maxamet Sage 5 LW
how do you like it?
post some pictures!

Bought 6 Spydercos in 2023:

Endura4 k390 SE
Endura4 VG10 PE
Chaparral LW
Manix2 15V
Enuff2 k390 PE
Endela k390 SE

Gifted first 3 off the list and kept the other 3.

Besides Spyderco I bought Manly Peak s90v as a present as well :)

Amazing knife, i just put a second edge on it since new, fresh off the stones, no stropping
My favorite trio

PE & SE along with enuff2

You can get your blades coated with DLC at hvm.cz (by HVM Plasma) they charge $8usd per blade plus shipping. They can coat your liners if you desire so. You can check out their work on facebook group Spyderco CZ/SK, due to relatively low cost, lots of the blades in Czech are being coated there

Hey, I'm planning a small road trip to Washington and Oregon state and was wondering, if you guys can recommend any brick and mortar knife stores carrying spyderco knives I could visit along the way? Many thanks

Since my wife is away this weekend, I've decided to touch up my favourite users on Venev stones. I particularly enjoyed the feedback of F150, F240 and F400. Thanks to Vivis teachings Manix2lw REX45 got 15dps F240 finish. Its the 3rd time I'm rocking low grit finish and absolutely love it. My K390 En...

The stone has some mileage and was kept clean using nagura stone. I want to use 90 Sic lapping grit on float glass to refresh F100 side. Is the lapping grit too fine? Would 46grit sic powder be better?

Did Endela k390 SE survive the purge? I can't see it being on discontinued list

Endela k390
Manix2 LW Rex45
Endura4 k390 SE
Sage5 LW Maxamet
Chaparral k390

First 3 are my EDC's

Sage5 LW in Maxamet and Chaparral in K390 would be the next thing I will be asking Santa to bring next xmas

I've tried many strops, soft fluffy leather with aluminum oxide green compound, hard skin with spray on ceramic compound, paint mixing sticks with diamond compounds, nothing works as good as the stropping book I made. Pages are labeled with their respective grits and use blank pages to clean the bla...

man they are screaming sharp. Probably one of the reasons it's still my favorite steel out there. I know there's "better" but this stuff is great. https://i.postimg.cc/Sxf9gvyh/20230803-174515.jpg Yes! 🙌 my favorite too! I might just have to try some of that Rex stuff cause I love Cruwear...

My apologies for being misleading, the 3D printed base is for sharpmaker, i wonder if there is one for gauntlet anywhere on the internet?

Sal, Please can we get a Gauntlet for 15 Dps? I’ll be glad to buy a second one. I’m loving the one I have with the cbn stones. Best results I’ve gotten from sharpening so far. For me it is much better than my Sharpmaker. Even doing a few strokes on it after my KME, or Precision Adjust produces a go...

Hey Jeff, i dropped the bevel angle to 15degrees on endura4 k390 gifted by Dan while ago (thanks Dan!!!). I used chainsaw file conveniently positioned in the brown rod groove
