Re: Lil' Temp 3 & Short Thick Blades
https://i.ibb.co/2Fcvzws/20240414-144151.jpg Note: all thoughts here pertain to SE blades, as I mostly carry SE and do not own a PE LT3. That being said, the LT3LW is one of my favorite folders. While the blade stock is obviously quite thick, the blade is also tall enough that (at least in SE) it's...

Re: CRUWEAR Is now my Favorite SE blade steel
The steels I most frequently carry in SE are: 1. K390 2. VG10 3. H1/H2 4. LC200N 5. 8cr13MOV I love the combo of wear resistance and relatively good toughness K390 offers, but it would be cool to have a more "middle ground" premium PM steel that trades a bit of K390's wear resistance for m...

Re: Tip Up vs Tip Down Poll
For me it totally depends on the knife. I prefer tip up as long as the knife is both (1) small enough that I can easily access the hole in tip up configuration without "scooching up" the handle after drawing the knife, and (2) has a strong enough detent/closing bias that I don't need to wo...

Re: Experienced Serrated Edge K390 users wanted.
From the sound of it, it looks like you guys would still choose K390 over VG-10 or LC200N? I have a Salt 2 in H2 and to me that is a different beast. I think it is way too thick for my uses, but I bought that model for beach and lake time. Corrosion notwithstanding, I do prefer SE K390 to SE LC200N...

Re: Solar Eclipse!
Very cool! We had a similar experience - it was incredible to live in the path of totality and notice all the little ways the environment changed for a few minutes. I noticed the birds in our valley seemingly disappearing too - all our animals were also visibly weirded out gor about 30 minutes. It w...

Re: Experienced Serrated Edge K390 users wanted.
I'm a big K390 fan in both SE and PE - for most of this year an SE Delica has been my most used/carried knife. I love SE K390 for a couple reasons: 1. They have (IMO) the thinnest blade and serration geometry of any SE knives spyderco offers. 2. For my uses, (mostly fibrous abrasive material like ca...

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
https://i.ibb.co/3RTqyKd/20240325-174820.jpg K390 Delica SE I love the aesthetics of aftermarket micarta/G10 scales, but the bidirectional FRN is unbeatable in actual use IMO. I've been using aftermarket micarta Delica scales for about two years and love the way they look, but every time I use thos...

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
https://i.ibb.co/d4MBRTj/20240311-140059.jpg I've really been enjoying this Siren more and more as I carry it. In addition to the S90V version I have a pre-CQI LC200N one I bought right as they came out. I had a couple issues with it but loved the design of the knife. Got the S90V version a bit ove...

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2024 Report
Thank you so much for these photos and summaries! I'm super excited to see these regular production 15V models coming down the pipeline out of Golden. I've yet to use 15V, but two of my favorite steels are K390 and Maxamet so it would be really interesting to try a steel that bridges the gap between...

Re: k390 serrated discontinued?
I'll echo the comments that serrated K390 is pretty amazing. It holds up great in SE, and is easy enough to touch up on ceramic rods although you definitely want diamond or CBN to repair damage or reprofile. The serration grinds and blade geometry on the two models I have (endela and delica) are rea...
