Re: Poor experience with LC200N edge?

I had a similarly unimpressive intro to LC200N when I got my Serrated Caribbean. I carved into some fairly soft wood a bit and the edge folded over pretty significantly. I wasn't sure if it was the steel or the nature of a SE blade since it was my first in many years. After fixing it on the sharpmak...

Re: Caribbean at last

I have a sheepsfoot SE and a leaf PE. Both are highly functional but I think the SE gets the nod for cutting power. It just tears through material. It's become my favored landscaping knife. Makes me want more SE knives in my collection. The LC200N steel definitely seems to roll easier than something...

Re: Knifejoy Exclusive SMOCK!

I suppose i'm late to the party but it is a really fun knife to play around with. fit and finish are great. I really hope spyderco can i...
