Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
Go Mad Max! I’m pleased to see that he made those guys pay for pulling guard (being both a BJJ and Judo practitioner, I hate to see guard-pulling).

Yes, they have them at the Spydero Fatory Outlet in Golden, Olorado.

Re: Anyone own an original Spyderco C01 Worker
This isn’t a true original Worker, but it’s the closest thing I have. The one on the right is technically an original Worker model (sorta kinda). :smlling-eyes https://i.postimg.cc/x1PG5Bvv/F5-F35831-7-A16-4-E28-8184-7507-C0-AA6248.jpg Sorry for the awful picture.

Re: Spyderco Now Makes Cars
Is that a manual or an automatic? I don’t see a stick shift. Maybe this should be posted in the Spydero Restricted Models Discussion.

Re: Learning Martial Arts At Home
I’d recommend checking out Burton Richardson’s Jeet Kune Do Unlimited organization ( https://jkdunlimited.com ). I’ve been training with him since 1999 (mainly in Jeet Kune Do and Jiu-Jitsu, though I’ve studied some Kali, Silat, and Krav Maga with him, too). My training with him was mostly in person...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
Ear Slap - Self-Defense - Paul Vunak Mr. Vunak is 100% correct; in actual physical self-defense, simple is best. IMO, SD skills should be simple and highly-refined, meaning trained almost to the point of over-saturation. And there should not be too many options (for example, types of strikes). This...

Re: Native 5 salt is Magnacut?
Just got mine in the mail today. It's a slicer! I am not worried. It is Spyderco! Besides my Salt 2 wharncliffe in LC200N is serving edc duties like a champ! Screenshot_20220914_182411.jpg Nice! Are the kyber crystals covered by the warranty or are those considered “consumable parts”? :winking-tongue

Re: Salts and Steels
Let me save you some time, not money, just time. In LC200N, get yourself a serrated Pacific Salt and a plain edge Native LW. Or.....a serrated Pacific Salt in H1 and a Native LW plain edge LC200N. My thoughts exactly. I often carry the LC200N Native and a H1 Salt 2 (either the standard blade shape ...

Re: Interest in a Spyderhawk 2?
Just some loud thinking from my side ... A knife with this kind of blade shape is most often going to be held in hammer grip - with the tip pointing down or up. With that line of thought - I would prefer to see the blade implemented in a knife whose handle was designed primarily for that kind of gr...

Hawkbill Caribbean
A while back, I created a thread to discuss the possibility of a Spyderhawk 2: https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=87350 . We got the discussion going again recently and I floated crazy the idea of a Caribbean with a Superhawk-style blade. Specifically, it would have the handle of the...

Re: Interest in a Spyderhawk 2?
Maybe the Superhawk and the Caribbean could be merged to create a Salty Superhawk with a groovy G-10 handle. The Caribbean is one of my favorite Spydercos, so having one with a Superhawk-style LC200N (or MagnaCut) hawkbill blade would be amazing. This I would like to try. Maybe you could launch a n...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
Nice video! We use the jut sao in a similar fashion in Jeet Kune Do. In close range, a double jut sao usually leads to a head butt, a Thai clinch, or an elbow (where the elbow is rolled over the top of the jut sao). On the outside, it makes a good entry into close range. Here’s Burton Richardson usi...

Re: Interest in a Spyderhawk 2?
These are great knives. I'd put the newer handle on it and keep it orange. That's the one I have. I love the orange handle for yard work and it matches the handle of my equally-stylish-and-unlosable ESSE Junglas machete! I wish that I hadn't missed the Sprint Run of the Rock Salt with the orange ha...
