Spyderco Forums

This is all super helpful. Except now I want to buy five more knives! I’ll use for general purpose. Cutting boxes, rope, etc. I wear jeans and shorts a lot - so I need something that would fit in my pocket. I’d like to spend $125-150 I'm biased, but I'd point you in the direction of a dragonfly per...

a fish scale frn 'larger dragonfly' is the knife that would make me spend money i don't have. go forest/blue-green for the handle and i'm a lock in, basically regardless of the steel. s90v, cruwear, hap40, k390 would all be equally nice, as would a dozen others in the 4v and above range. i love this...

Here it sits next to my previous EDC, a Nontron Violon Slipjoint from France. i lose my mind every time i see someone else's nontron. they've been at the top of my most wanted list for at least half a decade now and the import prices are so steep i can never justify pulling the trigger, and they're...

Hi all, I’m new here. I just picked up a Pacific Salt 2 for boating and really love it. Now I’ve got the bug and want an EDC. What’s the right second knife? I was looking at a Delica 4 SG or maybe Para 3. Would love any recommendations. Thanks! hi joel, you've got water environments covered with th...

At a $260 street price this is pretty firmly out of the “working tool” category. It does look nice though. agreed in spirit. it's a matter of assumptions: i'm referring to evident design intent (vs, say, knives explicitly designed as weapons, or for decor/collecting/accessorizing). you're referring...

Just wanted to share that I think this is a really beautiful design for a working tool. The diagonal grind taper over the opening hole is such a nice touch. The handle-forward on this one looks like the most well executed of any model yet. I'm excited to see them out there. I cannot justify the cost...

Great thread windward, super fun to read and learn from. I was interested in understanding more about your opinion of LC200N vs. H1/2 in SE. Is the key difference that you've found H1 cuts longer in SE, setting it apart as the better steel? Or is it that plus the small amount of rust you found once,...

I did not have the fortune of disposable income to spend on this mule, which I've looked forward to for some time. This is one of the most interesting objects Spyderco's released, and I imagine it was challenging to manufacture. I think it's fantastic it was developed and offered for testing, and ho...

Looking for recommendations - I know I have seen small sheaths with pocket clips for carrying traditional folders in the past. I haven't been able to find anything I remember now, however, and only have seen one or two makers. Who/where am I missing? Second, is there anywhere besides theebay or AAPK...

outstanding. thanks for sharing, very useful as a guide beyond being nice to look at.

edit: where would one look to find similar quality burl? other than knife supply sites i guess, or is that the simplest place

correct take. but what drum machine is your favorite is the question i want answered

For me, the GB2 may be the best general knife Spyderco makes. I didn't realize how much I appreciate and apparently prefer a semi-neutral handle until I owned it. It's the most comfortable Spyderco knife I own, all of its angles/lines work to make using the blade intuitive and effective. The hollow ...

this is disappointing news. the wolfspyder remains my #1 pocket knife of all, and was very excited to see what a v2 would involve.

i wrote them in february and got this reply: "At the moment there are no updates to the release. We are also very keen to see the knife back on the website. All I can suggest is to keep an eye on social media and the website for further updates. Please also use the notification service to recei...

This is very appealing. Handle forward as a design principle is really doing it for me, and managing to get no spine gap in the closed position is even more impressive as an overall package. This is tempting itself, would love to get a chance to hold one in person. I'd be interested to see further m...

If it's in A2, I'd be willing to put a modest amount of money on this being the updated wolfspyder. From this angle it looks right, or at least plausible, and the blade could be scandi from what I can see.

Ok this can't happen. At least yet. I HAVE to have a RockJumper in K390. THEN they can discontinue the knife. I've been looking for a good yardwork and gardening serrated knife for a while, esp. wharnies. The price of the rockjumper rn is difficult to beat, but I'd hold out for a K390. No word on o...

$60 vg10 rockjumper in black, or continue to wait for the inevitable k390 with scales i love the color of for twice (more?) what i'd pay now? decisions...

a few very large branches came down from a pair of silver maples after a big storm a couple weeks ago, while i was away. mix of live and dead/dry. to deal with them when i got back, brought out the loppers, pruners, bahco hand saw, council phantom bevel jersey axe, swedish forest axe, and bk9. i hav...
