Re: Initial impressions of new pm2 micarta/cruwear

I'm a lot happier with the micarta scales than I thought I'd be. I was ready to oder g10 scales but once I held it. I was sold. It's probably my favorite spyderco, surpassing my manix 2 m390. I prefer how the pm2sits in the picket. I can see another pm2 in my future.

Re: First time buyer… which model would you choose?

Welcome! Go for a para military2 in s45v. Worth every penny. Light, great steel, very good slicer etc. Highly doubt you would regret it. Its widely considered one of the best folding knives ever made. Good luck in choosing! I've got to go with my Alberta brother here. If you're going to own one, I'...

Re: Help me pick a spyderco

Agree with JSumm. S90V will be more corrosion resistant. Having said that, I've had no problem with knives like the esee 6 in the pacific northwest as long as they are taken care of. Now a folder may be a little more susceptible because if you close it up wet, it won't dry properly. Just curious if ...

It's not home yet but tracking shows it's at my FFL. Winter weather here will delay my being able to pick it up. This one should be a really good shooter as well as a nice looker

Re: crucarta pm2 now shipping

Same thing happened to me. Ordered a manix2 m390 and a nativechief rex45 and a month later pm2 crucarta notification. Couldn't pass on it this time though.

Re: Manix 2 Question

I changed out the ball lock and added a Ceramic bearing but left the factory spring in. If you are going to open her up, PM me and I'll send you a great video and if you give me your mailing address I'll send you a Ceramic bearing as I could only get a pack of 10 at that time. PS tape your blade if ...

Re: Question about posting

Naperville, were you wanting a bearing? If yes please pm me with your address. Cheers No, sorry, just trying to help. I saw the thread falling and wanted to bump it. I know a lot of members talk about their Manix 2's and it is a nice gesture. No apology needed. I’m not sure I posted in the right pl...

Question about posting

Hopefully I've put this in the right place. I just did a ball lock mod on my Manix 2 and I had to buy a pack of 10 ceramic bearings. As a result, I wanted to offer them to anyone who was going to change the lock on their Manix 2. Not sure how to go about this.

Thank you,

Chris

Manix 2 M390 with new flytanium ball lock and ceramic bearing. If you've been thinking about doing this, it's easy.

Re: Taking apart knives - part 2

In the last week I ventured into knife disassembly. Started with an easy one - Caly 3.5 as only the blade comes out. 10 minutes, cleaned and lightly lubed. 2nd on was the Delica 4. I was nervous because all the videos and forum readthroughs made it sound daunting. It was very simple apart from a lit...

Re: Crucarta PM2 master thread

I agree with you 100% mine arrived last week and I was ready to order some scales for it. As soon as I opened the box, I knew I didn't want new scales, the Micarta look great and feel great. Almost wish my manix 2 in M390 had the same scales. quote=kennethsime post_id=1596716 time=1643430570 user_id...

Still waiting for my carbon fiber Chaparral. Shipped on the 21st and apparently arriving next week. Ahhh!! Snail mail.
