Re: Stretch 2 pivot screw washer size

The Delica, Endela, and Endura all use the same washers. I'd bet the Stretch 2 does too. There are replacements available in the aftermarket. I'm sure Spyderco can supply a replacement, but it's an internal part, so you'd probably need to send your knife in for service. I believe their policy is th...

Re: Crucarta Manix 2

according to Spyderco's website, the Crucarta Manix 2 weighs the same as the S30v Manix 2, so I'm assuming the liners aren't skeletonized. does anyone have one yet?

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

For a tiny three-finger knife, the Dragonfly ergonomics line up a lot better for my hand. So it does end up being my most-carried knife, often as a secondary in a shirt or jacket pocket, etc.. What I'd really like to see is improvements on the Dragonfly LW. The big one is just offering it (especial...

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

This thread inspired me to carry my Dragonfly for a day and then carry my Lil’ Native for a day and compare them. The Dragonfly seems to fill almost all of the boxes. That point on the spine is the big turn off for me. The Lil’ Native checks off almost all of the same boxes but the smooth contours ...

Re: aftermarket Pivot replacement pm2 and others

Ya, I guess people don't want to send their knife in to warranty or deal with the hoops. I remember needing screws for a Yo2, and for what ever reason, I think they wanted pictures of the knife? It was in pieces because I was doing a swap so I didn't bother. People don't want the third degree as to...

Re: Golden Serrated Salts

Not to mention CE salts. I know I’ll sound like a broken record in this regard, but the total absence of CE in the salt production lineup is both surprising and a little disappointing. Of the Golden salts I think a Manix CE would be my preference, but ideally I’d also like to see backlock in the 3....

Golden Serrated Salts

For a lot if not most, there's both a plain edge and serrated version of each of the Seki Salts.

For the Native 5 Salts and for the Native Chief Salts, there are both PE and SE.

Will there be SE versions of the PM2, Para 3, or Manix 2 Salts?


Just wondering,

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

There’s an upcoming lil Native lightweight with blade stock the same as a Dragonfly or Delica. Looking forward, I’d expect that turns into a Salt version eventually. The Emerson opener Dragonfly is really cute. 🥰 Edit: I’m pretty biased in that my most used knife lately is a serrated lil Native. I c...

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

I prefer the Lil Native to the dragonfly, but they don't get jealous, so you can have both. for me, the lil Native is better. The lil Native is available in a compression lock, mid back lock, or a slip joint. There's also a wharncliffe version. If I'm going to clip it, I''ll take the compression loc...

Before I read this thread, I mistook the title to be a request for a non-locking/slipjoint version of the PM2 in G10.

Re: PM2 Slippy G10

There was a forest green g-10 s45vn sprint with diamond arc (?) texture which was very very grippy. Too much for a lot of people.

The new PM2 Salt would probably be a good thing to try.

Re: Lil' Temp 3 & Short Thick Blades

... They entire Military line is a bit odd in that they have a very thick blade stock (0.145" or 3.7mm for all of them), but taper to a pretty fine point. I guess it is just a unique design feature. It is more apparent in person, but the Para 3 has a fairly stout tip compared to the others in ...

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?

Sometimes, I covet those Sage 4s. If any one needs a "comeback", it's that one. I can always wish. replace the Ti bolster with smooth polished grey G-10 and the wood with jigged brown G-10 with a little black dye. Go for something similar to this in appearance: https://blogger.googleuserco...
