Re: Price increases 2023?

Well I just noticed the prices for the soon to be released Benchmade knives. Bugout in grivory is $180 and the new Tagouts in CF and G-10 are $337.50 and $270. I don't buy Benchmade for my own reasons, however, just wanted to point out that it appears or favorite EDC items are going up all over the...

I'm (perhaps unrealistically) hopeful that the K390 versions drops first. Spyderco does like to listen to us and they do like to spring surprises on us as well.
Well this brightened my outlook, unrealistically or not. thanks.

Re: enuff 2!!!

I want to be excited about the Enuff 2 in K390, but, they have yet to get the first Enuff 2 in VG10 to market. I love the releases and I know they try to get the knives out in 3-4 months after a release, but . . . . Honestly both of the K390 releases, Enuff 2 and Lil' Temperance, are soooooooo tempt...

Re: Is it getting close to a new Goddard sprint run?

I have a feeling that Micarta is going to be the odds on favorite, however, I love G-10. That said if you are making this in Japan I realize the price is going to be high like the new Stretch 2 XL. That said, the new Stretch is my favorite Spyderco in my albeit limited collection. If Micarta was che...

Re: Men's Belts?

Best belt I ever owned was made by Rafter S Gun Leather. Unfortunately they are no longer in business. I live in Florida and after 15 or so years of constant wear and sweat it finally gave up the ghost. I now have a 1.5" leather belt by El Paso Saddlery and a 1.5" nylon Ciguera Emissary be...

Re: The Lil' Temperance 3 Lightweight: A comprehensive review

At first I was thinking the Shaman in 15v would a great knife for me to grab as I like hard use or beefier folders, however, saw the LTLW in K390 and was intrigued. So I went and read through this thread on the original LTLW and having done son I think I am fully in this camp as a hard use folder an...

So is the lanyard tube hitting the blade on literally all of them as they're just made like that? Or is it just a qc issue on some?
Does not effect my blade at all. I have checked a couple of times now.

Re: Reveal 12 Live!

The Enuff 2 in K390 really jumps out at me. Maybe it is time to get a Shaman too if I can snag one in 15v. And if I am being honest with myself I have never had a truly gentleman's folder and that damascus and carbon fiber Spyopera is so temptingly beautiful . . . but I will probably talk myself out...

Re: College Football 2022

The national championship game was so one sided that it was boring. It was joyless murderball. Yeah man. I thought it was over midway thru the 1st quarter. Georgia only had 17 points but, I could see that they were just having fun.....no stress. Those points were not hard to get. Knew TCU was in ve...

Re: New Sprint Drop Coming Soon!

At first I liked the black blade but it is stainless so no coating is attractive . . . both? Something tells me these might go fast as they are cool looking in a popular steel and price right.

Re: Ti/G10 RIL Military with CPM M4

Someday I hope to stumble upon one used that needs a new home. Might be the best Military made. You and me both, friend. I’d love to slap a piece of Micarta on there too. Talk about a grail! I'd think the KW S90V version has surpassed this one as the best Millie made. I don't know, maybe I need bot...

To clarify, we usually put up product a bit later because we wait to receive our full batch from Spyderco and distributors before uploading them, it helps makes the releases much smoother.
That is a great idea, to wait and release them when you have more than 5 in hand, hence why many like DLT.
