Re: Spyderco Standard Clip vs. Lynch vs. MXG Gear

I’ve had plenty of both mxg and lynch clips. Mxg clips are slightly stiffer in my opinion. I prefer lynch however because he makes left handed clips and customer service is among the best I’ve ever seen.

Re: New Knife Steel Ratings by Knife Steel Nerds

Me too, thanks. A cursory look and it seems that I was right in questioning whether I needed an S110V N5 since I already have an S90V. Spyderco's s110v has been substantially more stain resistant than Spyderco's s90v, in my uses. I prefer s90v for general use, but if I'm doing something where corro...

Re: Replacement scales Chap birdseye

My suggestion would be to contact the Spyderco warranty department. They may be able to help you out since this model is still in production.

Re: Thoughts on CRK Sebenza, help me spend $500!

These necro threads from new people the past few weeks are out of control. Love me some CRK!! I can't type much more as my hand is about to fall of off my body and I feel my brain turning into mush....sh*t, there's Neegan! I don't mind it so much when people come back to add new information that co...

Re: Lynch NW

I put Lynch clips on almost all of my Spydercos except for the ones that come with wire clips. I prefer the deeper carry. Also I’m glad he makes a left hand version of the para 3 clip, whereas mxg doesn’t. The only downside is that it seems he never has the black cerakote versions in stock.

Re: Micarta texture

Welcome to the forum. I have a Z-Wear Shaman with micarta scales and I think the texture is pretty smooth. I don’t feel like the scales will cause my grip to slip though.

Re: Who's grabbing the blacked out para3 cruwear?

I bought one. I wanted a DLC para 3 and would rather have a coated tool steel than a coated stainless steel. I decided to swap my bento box blue g10 scales on to it. I think it came out pretty nice. Just waiting for the black lynch clips to come back in stock. https://i.postimg.cc/y8MgTMX1/1-F1408-F...

Re: Mystery KnifeCenter Exclusive

If it is a para 3 then I’m in. I’ve been waiting on the right tool steel to try DLC. I missed out on the last one from DLT.

Re: Right hand knife, left hand carry

I’m left handed and carry in my left pocket. I tend to avoid knives where I can’t switch the clip to left hand carry. I haven’t had a problem yet.

Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4

Hey, All: The black-bladed Smock Exclusive for Blade HQ is not a DLC coating; it's titanium carbonitride (TiCN). I wrote the letter and the error in it was mine. I have corrected it and future shipments of knives from Spyderco will contain the corrected letter. I apologize for the error and any con...

Maybe people are realizing it's just another PM2 with a M390-class steel and different colored scales, or that the exclusive is being milked in just a DLC-coated variant...whatever it is, I hope dealers will wake up and take risks with the less popular models, like what DLT and BladeHQ are doing!

Re: Just for fun (pole) Are you a righty or a lefty?

I’m also left handed. For spyderco I typically use back locks and compression locks. The one thing I really like about my CRK Sebenza is that they make a lefty version. I would really like a lefty frame lock from spyderco like the spydiechef.
