Spyderco Forums

I know the original post was about Golden, but I got one of the PD#1 Endelas, and the bevel wanders a bit on both sides. It's not terrible, and the knife will be a user, so I'm not losing sleep, but the Seki ones have been good to me in the past.


Same with my Para3 PS but it ain't getting ...

Thank you.

What am I hearing? Spyderco hardens magnacut lower just for increased corrosion resistance?

Is this a fact?

Yes we DO actually need to Magnacut ALL the knives.

/thread

Agreed.

Agreed my para 3 PS in S45VN came in sharp as all be done get out!

I am not aware of any differences.



Because there really aren't any differences. :rofl

In the steels that CRK uses/used people would not really notice any difference in real use.

S30V, S35VN, and now Magacut are so all in the same category so noticing what steel is which in real use would ...

I recently purchased a Magnacut Inkosi Insingo large blade from a Chris Reeve listed Dealer.

When comparing it to the same model in S45Vn they have made allot of changes you can really tell in the way it cuts I have owned many Chris Reeve Sebenza Inkosi etc and this is the sharpest I have ever came ...

Oops G-10 it is.

I cast my current vote as a Magnacut DLC fully blacked out Military 2 with a Wharncliffe blade. And a nice Spider emblem in the handle like they did long ago with another Military Forum knife, not the PM2.

...

If they come out as salt which in my mind equals lightweight in Magnacut then no thanks.

To my mind I do not like the salt series construction even though I own a few Salt series and seeing the PM2 coming out in that construction using Magnacut is not something I want, Yeah I get it ...

I had 2 and sold one because I realized as well built as this thing is it is liable to outlive me so why have 2?

If you like a Wharncliffe blade this is a good one to get.

The CTS-XHP is allot like S30V but a bit less edge retention and a bit easier to sharpen corrosion resistance also quite good ...

These are the only two on my radar and will likely be the last Spyderco purchase unless they come out in Magnacut then it will be a purchase all over again.

If all you want to accomplish is keep them sharp then purchase a Spyderco Gauntlet with both CBN & Ceramic rods. Once I got this I never had a need for the sharpmaker again. Just remember a sharpie is your friend, with a sharpie you can get more out of these rods than you might believe.

The ...

I have been using my Military 2 since mid August.

I own several of the liner lock versions in different steels.

In my opinion this is how the Military should have been with the comp lock for a long time, when I pick up an older version I keep hunting for the comp lock to close it... No joke the ...

Yeah, it appears that the change of steel on those two (Native & UKPK) were almost considered a CQI change rather than a new product reveal.

Would a steel-change, especially to the heralded MagnaCut, be considered CQI?

I wonder if MagnaCut’s heat-treat (warping?) is making Spyderco proceed ...

Honestly I always saw the liner lock on the military as less than ideal even though I own several of them in different steels but it was perfect for it's time of development and the comp lock should be just fine in fact better even in many ways. I have been carrying a S30V PM2 DLC Wharncliffe ...

I have had my preorder in for a while now and whenever it hits is fine by me, no hurry.

For those knocking S30V or bored with it you probably are not sharpening it correctly to it's full potential, it took me years to figure it out and now it is what I carry every day. S30V PM2 DLC Wharncliffe to ...

It's the stones guys, not the systems.

Buy the system that gets you the most access to high performance stones.

Don't put the cart before the horse.

Well said, gimmicks are just gimmicks.

This from my purchases is a gimmick company by and large not another dollar from my wallet so says I.

Does the shirt com with a Job at Golden?

We still on for that beer Sal?

Meh! over 20CV and the M390 equivalents a few years back lets stop screwing around and drop more Magnacut already eh?
