Re: A knife designed by steelcity16 and Evil D

Live in a state - can't buy/own/carry :) - Having serrated edge on a ballisong would be the first I've ever seen it. What is the primary purpose of such a blade on a ballisong? Wild? yes? practical? .....hmmmmm

Re: [Pics Request] Thickness comparison, Native 5 family.

Nice now I wish they made some more models with the liners. I like heft in G10. If you want light weight just get the FRN.

Re: Time for new models?

Maybe a collab with Arcteryx :) - named after the Archaeopteryx - the Byrd Archaeopteryx. According to the brand description "It made an evolutionary leap forward to escape the horizontal world of dinosaurs and developed the feathers for flight." So what evolutionary leap forward will Bryd...

Re: Glock and Spyderco collaberation

I do like Glocks for what they are (I have 2 Glocks + 2 "Glock patterned" custom builds), but they don't have the same vibe as a Spyderco IMO. As far as Glock grip angles are concerned there are several remedies, including going to aftermarket frames or using back spacers to achieve a grip...

Re: Elastic Ceramic. Wow!

Fairly new here - browsing various posts/threads to see what's new in the knife world. Are the mules available for anyone to purchase? Or do you need to be part of a special group?

Re: Hawkbill/Meadowlark byrd Colors?

Not sure if you could swap scales out with the regular meadowlark? They come in Blue, Brown, Grey, and G10. I think stainless/titanium too. If I had 1 I would give it a try. Most likely you would need to move the lock bar and the blade together as they are usually fitted together. In fact I may just...

Anyone modify or improve their Byrds?

Thought I'd share a little with what I do with my Byrds after I get them new. I realize Byrds may be for the budget conscious folks, but it doesn't mean that they need to look/feel budget. When I get a new Byrd Meadowlark, FRN/G10, there are several areas where I do a little fine tuning to freshen t...

Re: Pacific Salt talk

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51828534356_d306f80cd2_z.jpg I just gifted a full SE Pacific Salt 1 H1 from my collection, with older style scales that had a more squared back end. The knife stays on the boat, so I get to use it too. :) Comes in handy for the myriads of ropes and fishing lines ...

Re: Spyderco knives

For me, blade shapes, bevel, material all play a big part, but under 3" is usually more for convenience, utility, and control. I fish on a boat and use lots of ropes, on more than one occasion, a combo or full serrated under 3" blade gave me the control and correct pressures needed to cut ...

Hi Yogibearal,

Welcome to our forum.

sal
Thank you Sal. I've been viewing unregistered for a bit. Never really collected until recently, when I started trying some new steels after getting into a sharpening system. The Byrd line has been my go-to, so thought I'd chime in.

Re: StNicksKnives Native Chief in Black CPM 4V and Red G10

Usually more of a Native 5 guy, but I guess that boat has sailed - Will be my first CPM 4V knife. Hope to find a matching Native 5.

Usually a Native 5 guy but that ship has sailed on the St Nicks, so giving this a try. Something about Red and Black works for me. Will also be my first 4v.

Re: What would you like to see next from Byrd?

New here, but not to Spyderco/Byrd. I rotate a meadowlark in either as primary or secondary carry, at least once per week of which I have 3, (FRN in blue, G10 black x2) My Spyderco's include Delica's, Native 5, Military, pacific salt (Full SE). I lost my first meadowlark in black FRN, w/ combo edge....
