I am waiting for aftermarket scales for my FRN MagnaCut Native which include PB washers, the absence of which is my perennial and main complaint re FRN Spydercos. I found them on Etsy (HiPolyDesigns), for nearly half the price of the ones offered by AWT and should be also lighter. In burgundy red :-)

oops, wrong thread!

Thanks! :-)

Is the HRC known for this knife? I don't see it in the catalog nor on the dealer pages.

I also don't "like" pocket clips and I removed them from my Chaps and some Natives, but kept them on other ones, because deep pocket carry is not always possible and I must do IWB instead.

I use long red lanyards on knives when I carry them outdoors in the winter and there is snow, so when I drop them and they disappear in the snow, the lanyard is still visible. I use lanyards holding some kind of small float, in case I drop the knife in the water when I am on a boat or kayaking. I us...

Salt or no salt, I would still buy a SE liner lock Millie.

Hi Fireman, So what you want is a Spyderco Machete? With teeth? sal This would be also the optimal serrated sickle outperforming and complementing the Tasman Salt SE in those delicate spots where I can't use a weedwhacker without a danger of damaging useful plants.. ideally perhaps with kama style ...

I think the Spydiechef is more suitable. But there is also the Catcherman and possibly others.

For me it is its compression lock. Not only I prefer other locks or even no lock to a compression lock, but IME Taichung compression locks are simply unusable, ie pressing the tab combined with a wrist action won't close the blade. This was the case with the Sage which after failing to break it in I...

Made raised beds, sliced open 60+ bags of soil and cow manure, delimbed a bunch of bamboo and cane. https://i.postimg.cc/4dppQGPx/20240428-100238.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Y9hRwTt6/20240428-164550.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/NGpkJsYK/image.png Three days later, my microconvexed Spy27 Native can still sl...

For a short hike.

I am perfectly happy with my two Chaparrals and two Dragonflies, so I can be picky and just wait for the "perfect" lil Native. It must have a back-lock, scales that are not black, a steel I want to try/use and it can't be an exclusive run. But more to the point, I am not even sure I need a...

Could not let this opportunity pass by me. Fluted TI Military acquirred ! Blade is warped but it's in excellent shape. I wonder if an older pre-stepped pivot Military could be a candidate for a blade swap. I think this is gonna be a mission of mine for the upcoming year ! https://i.imgur.com/Ht4eZG...

Sage 2 in MagnaCut and Cruwear please or better yet maybe reintroduce the Domino in those steels. YES!!! Another vote for a Domino re-release! I’ve asked about this several times recently, either in its original form or the Domino 2 which has been mentioned previously. The Sage is a very nice model...

Any new Sage variety is great! Would love a K390, but honestly will probably happily settle for the SPY27. Though a new lock variety would be best. And for those that missed out, I would most enjoy a Sage 2 re-release like they did with the Sage 1. Even if it is a Sprint run. My most desired Sage a...

Linerlock Military..
and a 3.5" Native SE.

No photo, but it was the Native 5 Salt SE LC200N performing gardening duty.
