Re: What do you want to see at Shot Show 2024?

I'm looking forward to BBB folder, spymyto and bodacious. For the future, I'm hoping for a mid size thin stock folder, say 3.5" cutting edge, under 0.10" at spine. Other designs that would make me happy: - High end new design or collab (like Nirvana, Paysan) - Mid size button lock folder (...

Re: Red & Black Holiday Sale!

That's a surprise! I'm happy to see it happen again - hopefully less nerve-racking than the last one.
However, being announced so shortly before the event, I won't be able to participate tomorrow. Bummer. Please make it another day than Friday next time.
Good luck to everyone!!

Re: Any interest in a sprint/exclusive crucarta Gayle Bradley 1?

Absolutely! GB1 or GB2 in cruwear, maxamet, 4v or damascus would be an instant buy for me.

Re: Magnacut Paramilitary 2

Personally, I don’t like the yellow stripes on the G-10 scales of the satin model (makes it look like a bumble bee). I think they should’ve put a yellow stripe on the side like they did with the Thin Blue or Red Line Delica, Endura, etc. Much cleaner that way. May be just me and just a guess the Ye...

Re: COMING SOON!!!

Personally, I don't think the Reveal process is achieving its purpose, and I would not be disappointed to see it on the discontinued list. Nah, the Reveals are cool. They're a source of entertainment for me. I like seeing the new knives Spyderco is going to make. But it doesn't matter when the Reve...

Re: Apologies - 2023 Spyderco Online Factory Seconds Sale

Thanx to the entire Spyderco crew! No apologies needed. Living many ths miles away from CO, the online sale is the only way to get seconds for me. After 3 hours almost gave up, but finally I was lucky enough to score a few. If some effort and a bit of frustration is the extra cost then let be. Bette...

Re: Spyderco Online Factory Seconds Sale!

Based on the number of people confused by when the sale starts, I'm concerned that some may be unclear on the concept of a "seconds" knife as well. Indeed. Let me help clarify. The sale begins at 9:00 a.m. sharp. Sharp? Knives? Get it? Bwahahaha! Anyway, after the sale begins, all the bes...

Re: Experience with Spyderco's CBN benchstone?

306CBN is my top favorite benchstone for about 2 years now. I used to sharpen on diamond plated stones which wear out after some use, but this CBN is bonded so it will last forever... In 9 of 10 freehand sharpening sessions it's all I need. The two grits are well balanced, I don't chase mirror polis...

Re: SPK Lamia colab

No offence, but I don't get what's so special about this one. It's very close to the Giantmouse ACE jutland which seems to have even better ergos due to index finger choil and liner lock.

Re: I’m an indecisive giant. Millie vs Chief!

Appreciate all the feedback guys. As for the Stretch 2 XL Cruwear option, the lanyard tube issue people were having is a concern for me, especially considering the knife is pricier than the ones I listed initially. I hadn't thought of the YoJumbo actually. I'll give it a closer look, but it seems t...

Native Chief Cruwear KnifeCenter Exclusive?

KC Cruwear & smooth g10 exclusives' family is growing and I hope that Chief will be the next. A clean steel would be more appealing than DLC, however I'll take any variant. Anybody else is looking forward for this one? What do you think are the chances that it will happen in the next few months?

Re: I just bought an FRN Police 4 in K390…

What a knife! When I got it last summer I wasn't sure it'd see much carry, but man, it's amazing. It carries more comfortably than many smaller blades, being so lightweight and slim in the pocket. And so capable - it cuts anything in half just by one move (ok, two for watermelon). Plus, K390 is curr...

Re: What Spyderco knives do you want to see in ceramic

I'd be in for a mule. Maybe a kitchen blade as well if reasonably prized. However, I don't see any use for a folder in ceramic at all.

Cool survey, thanks.
