I was thinking today about this steel, what do you think the handle color designation will be?

Should we expect this steel to also get designated as a Salt steel?

Honestly I would love to see it in the DLC/grooved G10 theme, I can't get enough of that combo.

Hard-copy catalogs are still around, and 2026 mailings should start going out very soon.

Thanks for your interest!

Any idea if Reveal #20 will be included if you requested the 2026 Catalog? I have requested the catalog, but I have not seen a place to request Reveal #20.

Its a little ...

As always thanks for all the input. I ended up going with the Endura CE VG10 Saberground and I love it. Extremely tough knife that will do anything I need plus take some abuse if needed.

It will indeed!!

Imo what a true "extreme" hard use blade should look like (concerning folders ...

It pairs nicely with my original Endura PE I got 30+ years ago.

I dropped it in Ed's lap. I couldn't make it work, but Ed's quite the genius when it comes to the Ethnic series models. Check out his Kris. Brilliant.

Sal,

Out of curiosity do you know where the name Kris came from? Seems an odd name for a knife.

I’m just hoping for textured scales of some sort for Magnamax

Agree, I love the texture of the black salt series MagnaCut. It would be great to bring that to MagnaMax.

It's tough hearing Maxamet is also going to be hard to get, it's one of my favorite steels on a smaller/mid-sized knife. Might have to pick up a Manix LW Maxamet if i see one at the right price.

2026 is turning into a tough year, so many nice Spyderco's are coming out. Hard to get them all plus old ...

Brian offered some wise advice in that; Any color might be offensive and a deal breaker for some ELU's. So any color would be good, but also offer black?

sal

I would not say any color would be good, but no color would be horrible. I would stay more muted, natural, neutral. I love the idea of a ...

anthracite grey

So darker than the "Maxamet-grey"?
That'd be cool indeed...

Not going to lie, the Maxamet G-10 grey is pretty great, it would be my second choice after a dark forest green.

Cool idea, never thought of it.

The show side of mine, that sits against my body in my pocket it now much darker, I am guessing from moisture.

We're getting ready to open Shot Show tomorrow, so it will be interesting to see what happens.

Now all we need is a ton of MagnaMax.

Excited to see what color scales you plan to pair with it. Maybe a very deep hunter green.

Even if I complain and cringe on this forum, and when I push the ‘buy’ button, it is pretty unlikely that I will miss out on the REX121 Chap. Ultimately, I personally don’t know of another company that has the kind of access to the owner like this forum. Sal takes some pretty good shots and stays ...

Hi Larrin,

Thanx for dropping in. Always appreciate your cmments.

By virtual, I mean by the numbers rather than by the machine test. Have you compared 14C28N to CTS-BS1N on CATRA tests?

If Niagara is rolling MagnaCut, Please ask them to send us some?

Someone posted that all of the early ...

I also look at this topic in two ways:

-OMG the $570 price on the Sage 6 REX-122 is pretty high.

But also:

OMG the $221 price on the Manix 2 Salt DLC Magnact seems so low for what you’re getting.

My point being, as I mentioned before, Spyderco does a great job at making a great knife at most ...

I agree with everyone, the prices on some of these models seem a bit crazy. I thought the Sage 5 REX-121 LW at $340 MSRP was a bit steep, but awesome steel and probably worth it. Then the Starmate at $450 MSRP seemed even higher. And now the Sage 6 REX-121 came out with a $570 MSRP.

These knives ...

My only question is why a PM2 REX-121 is $265, while the Sage 6 REX-121 is $427? That’s a large price difference and not sure why.

I have a Sage 5 LW REX-121 and it’s well with the price for that steel.


Because the PM2 is a dealer exclusive and dealers get to set those table prices. Dealers ...

Another great job, the PM2 LW in 15V definitely caught my eye. It's also nice to see more REX-121, I guess Sal bought everything they had before it was too late.



Hi WilliamMunny,

Actually, it was Eric that had the foresight to buy everything before it was too late.
