Re: S45VN Shaman

Forrest green to match the other S45VN sprints seems like the natural choice.

Re: Are you interested in a new run of Spyderhawk hawkbill?

I know I’m in the minority on this thread, but for my uses having the PE option is a must. For harder use I’ve always preferred liners as well.

Re: The Jester 2023 Sprint Run POLL SERIES PART: 1

Unless I’m mistaken, doesn’t the ladybug use the same scales as the jester? Shouldn’t that mean the fully lined P-wood from the KC exclusives would be a ready made option?

I’d be in for one.

Re: What's your favorite model to OPEN?

S90V CF Shaman. Something about the CF vs the standard G-10, makes the most satisfying double click of anything I own.

Re: Anyone ever accidentally launch your knife?

I have twice, while pulling wire in a tight space. Turns out if the apprentice takes up the slack on the twine at just the right angle it can half hook your exposed pocket clip and arc out nicely. Fortunately both times it stayed closed…

The black liners are a nice touch. Would it be weird to buy it just for the liners? /s
If it’s just for the liners, the latest runs of DLC s30v have the blacked out liners as well.

Re: Shipping to Canada

Are one handed knives an issue in Canada? I'm traveling to Ontario for work soon and plan on bringing a knife or two with me. If customs is going to give me trouble I might have to buy something when I get there (I'll have plenty time to browse online, unless they drop the silly two week quarantine)...

Re: Shipping to Canada

DLT ships quick, but sometimes stuff sits at the border for a couple days, especially if it comes in through Mississauga. I’ve never had anything worse than damaged packaging and fingerprints on back locks like the Dfly, shouldn’t be a problem.

As much as I love hawkbill blades, I'm not sure how excited I'd be to sharpen an s90v or k390 one. My m4 dodo is enough of a challenge...
I tend to agree, but something like CPM Cruwear would be ideal.

Re: What’s your best made Spydie?

I have 2 that stand out, a CF s90v Shaman because of its solid feel and loud two stage click when the lock engages, and a Knife Joy Damascus Endura 4 which had perfect centring combined the smoothest action out of the box I’ve ever experienced.

I would definitely grab a Lil’ Matriarch and likely a Tasman if they happened.

Re: Para 3 Tanto??

I’d get in line for one if they happen. I have a slightly smaller Kershaw tanto and have found the secondary tip extremely useful with my index finger straight down the spine for scoring plastic. Figure having a more robust build and more comfortable scales would be ideal.

Re: Still looking for UKPK in new steels and colors

Given the choice I’d definitely prefer forest green G-10 on some 204P. If only there was someone known for that combo...

I'd love to buy Enduras in M390, Cruwear, and S90V.

Have the K390 on order already.

Black blades, not a big thing for me. Do like the black clips.
I’d definitely be interested in all three of these as well.
