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?

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 :-)

Native 5 Salt Yellow FRN MagnaCut HRC?

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

Re: Question about lanyard holes.........

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.

Re: Question about lanyard holes.........

I use long (2ft) 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...

Re: Another run of Whale Rescue Blade is needed.

Hi Fireman, So what you want is a Spyderco Machete?

Re: Ikuchi, the best Spyderco folding filet knife?

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