Re: Just put my last Spyderco in a Zipper bag ...

Edit: after 1 hour research, with given dimensions above, no washers found either in Europe or us.. It may be harder than I thought

Re: Just put my last Spyderco in a Zipper bag ...

Thanks for help and consideration. Sal, I received your shipping yesterday. That is the reason why I was upset. In the shipping, there were 2 T6 screws and No washers. I was hoping for washers and was disappointed. If there was 2 different shippings from you, it may arrive but I doubt. I certainly c...

Re: Just put my last Spyderco in a Zipper bag ...

I don't claim warranty. I know this is my fault, but I'm disabled with very few strength in hands, as I explained to customer service. I just asked for pb washers dimension: No answer And asked for buying washers: another no. Why not providing washers dimension? For security, it is better to provide...

Re: Just put my last Spyderco in a Zipper bag ...

Thanks for your help and comprehension, friends. Found on the forum dimension for Ti Chaparral : OD = 10 mm ID = 4.5 mm Thickness = .12 mm I'll try with those measurements .... it's too bad information doesn't come from Spyderco when requested... As you say, washers are not that expensive. Neither a...

Re: Choosing the Chaparral

Nice review, very informative for size comparisons ... As I have a FRN Chaparral, I was hesitating buying a DF2. I was afraid of a too short grip for 4 fingers. It seems that the grip length of the DF2 is very similar to the Chap's one... I made my choice, I will definitely try the upcoming DF2 Salt...

Re: Hope for a Chaparral with upgraded steel?

.... a rather unique model like the Chap got some more variants too. So people who just happen to prefer other steels or even more so who´d like to experiment with different steels in this uniquely thin blade stock could try the Chap too.... Hi there, I totally agree Wartstein ... Chaparral could b...

At least, eating apples allows me to use my knives ;) I particularly like Golden Delicious (!) Apples - soft ang classicand Pink Lady -more cri...
