Re: Is Spyderco missing out on the fixed blade market?

As mentioned, I, like possibly many others, prefer traditional styles and materials in fixed blades. Burls, bone, leather sheaths and I even rescale my folders with natural materials. But a fixed Salt knife with a Spyderedge is a great offering and I would especially like a rerun of the Whale Rescue...

Re: Salt steels for pool/chlorinated water.?

Exposed to lots of sweat and chlorine in saunas, steam chambers and pools but my H1 SE Dragonfly is doing fine. Although I EDC a Magnacut Native now, I think it's a bit too big for spa carry - I want my spa knife concealed :-) BTW, I wouldn't mind a Magnacut Salt Dragonfly with less aggressively tex...

Re: Spyderco Groom carry suggestions

If I was fortunate enough to find a soulmate in this turbulent time I would only carry some of Spyderco's finest to that big day. My two suggestions right of the top of my head would be the Cruwear C-60 Ayoob or one of the more recent Para2 models. I don't think you could go wrong with either one o...

Re: Spyderco 50th Anniversary Knife?

Some folks might not like me for pointing this out, but there's a Military 2 which will likely sell much better than the Military "1". So, I figure the original Military's days are likely numbered. A special 50th anniversary model would be a good send off for the original Military. My tho...

Re: Spyderco 50th Anniversary Knife?

A lot of good suggestions, thanx. I also thought about a new model? I haven't had an opportunity to speak with Eric about any plans he might have for the 50th. sal A new model would be really nice indeed. Another option would be "new version / size of already popular model" Can´t help, bu...

Re: 52100 Native Chief?

I know that Golden is at capacity limits in pushing knives through but I wonder if there is a chance that we will see a 52100 Chief? I know that a lot of people have their issues with it but it’s my favorite steel that Spyderco puts out and it’s the perfect platform for it. On the opposite end of t...

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?

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 :-)
