Re: The Last Gun You Bought

Thanks, It has the Larue MBT in there. I have a few others with those and for $100 is hard to beat.

Re: The Last Gun You Bought

I did a retro Larue Tactical build after I got a good deal on a Larue lower. I did go with a PredATAR barrel instead of the traditional stealth barrel to save some weight. Balances pretty good, finding all the older parts was fun, but spendy, and I run quad rails on pretty much all working guns. Tha...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

I'll go ahead and say I'm on the other end of the spectrum. I'm pretty ecstatic with both my HIC Mules. No they are not the sharpest Mules I own, but they are sharp enough for a good pack knife, and I love the fact I'm able to test these out. I'll have one in the water for the entire weekend this we...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

My 2nd HIC showed up today, and it's sharper than the 1st one, sharp enough I'll likely leave it alone for now. Appreciate all the info here, and I also watched the torture testing. I think this material was never meant to be a replacement for a steel knife. Not for my use anyways. It will be an exc...

Re: MT40P HIC testing (Warning extreme testing)

Well I guess I won't be chopping up bricks with the new mule. I don't really social media, but did he explain the performance up until breakage?

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

Beautiful scales you guys are making, I took my first HIC and wanted to get it functional and yet keep it lightweight. I used Yablanowitz's paracord wrapping guide again as I've done a few times before, but this mule quickly presented me some new challenges. Please ensure you tape your blades up rea...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

Anyone that picked up in store from SFO be willing to post up some pics? Would love to see a closeup of the edge. Thanks in advance! My first one ( I broke down and ordered another after the initial rush lol) will be here this afternoon along with the proprietary sheath, I'll try to get some pics o...

Re: How many Spyderco Knives did you buy in 2023?

I'm over 15, but a dozen of those were for the kitchen for the wife. Grabbed a few 2nds for gifts and stuff.
Already have 2 MT40 Mules coming this week so starting the new year off right.

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

Looks like 201 left as of a minute ago. I picked up 2 and a sheath, might grab another as a backup... Checkout was really delayed and I had 8 in the cast at one point, patience though and it looks like the site is back to being pretty responsive. Thanks again to the Spyderco team for this opportunity.

Re: Anyone else talk crap about how many Mules they were going to buy? And then life caught up...

I'm late to the mule game and Spyderco addiction in general, but have bought 5 so far, gifted 2 to a few of my friends. Gave a SP to a buddy when he got his captains license. Oldest daughter got one setup for her hunting pack. I used one for breaking down a couple deer this year too. I have 7 folder...

Re: Red & Black Holiday Sale!

My Manix and Native in Maxamet both arrived today! The Native I've gone over twice and have yet to find a blem. My Manix has like 4 tiny off colored darker spots on the blade which also took me twice to find. Very happy with my order and looking forward to trying out my first exposure with Maxamet.

I never received any order confirmation to my email, but I did leave the order status page up on my laptop which changed to shipped and I just received shipping info.

Re: Red & Black Holiday Sale!

Very smooth transaction for me as well. I got both a native and manix in maxamet to try out. My 3rd Manix and I think I have a favorite... One minor thing was I did not get an order receipt emailed to me despite saying my order was successful. Maybe just a delay as all the orders are being processed...

Re: Elastic Ceramic. Wow!

Does anyone know how long it takes from "Coming Soon" to in stock?

Fingers crossed this doesn't hit while I'm out of service area in the woods, but that would be my luck...
