Re: How do YOU define "beater knife"?

I define it as a knife that I wont mind too much if I break it in use.

Re: Favorite EDC steel

Favorite is S90V. What I carry most seems to be Magnacut.

Re: Hiking with Spyderco

Hunting and hiking Colorado’s Continental Divide Trail at Route National Forest. 2 weeks bow hunting some of roughest terrain in Colorado. Hiked almost 90 miles at 11,000 feet. I lost 15 lbs and ate tag soup…2 years in a row.

Re: Real world Magnacut performance. A+


Very nice. Was there any difference in how you sharpened it vs S110V?


I started with the factory edge on both as they were extremely sharp from the factory. S110V is way to brittle to be dinging it off bones and cutting through a sternum. I Had to reprofile the entire edge as it was chipped so ...

Real world Magnacut performance. A+

I was fortunate enough to harvest 2 deer in the past month here in Indiana. I used my new Spyderco Maganacut Mule to field dress the deer. Last year I used a Manix 2 S110V and the result was a disaster as It literally chipped the blade all over. Not this time! I used this new Magnacut Mule on 2 deer ...

Are there any hunters out there?

I love a good big game field dressing/skinning knife. I’ve used a Spyderco Shaman in the past for some of that business. It’s a prefect knife for the job. I primarily used a “custom” S90V Shaman with blaze orange G10 scales in the past with a deep carry clip. It’s an absolutely perfect knife, but I ...

Re: Destroyed Pants

That’s nothing. Try carrying around a Strider full TI Double Gunner Grip. It's basically a cheese grater.

Re: Hunters!

This is the knife I’m using for deer gutting/cleaning. It’s a Spyderco Magnacut Mule with bright blaze orange G10 handles. I’ve had to take apart and clean every folder I’ve used to do the job. It’s a pain. That’s why I’m going fixed blade. The Mule blade length is ideal for the task. The orange ...

Re: Do Chemically Treated Towles/Rags Exist to Wipe Off Rust?

Forget the wipes. I think you'll have a very hard time finding treated towels that will remove surface rust. Just use a soft cotton towel with some Flitz. Its will remove surface rust pretty easily.

Zirconium is corrosion resistant, exotic, and about 5/6 the density of iron/steel.
Yes but have you tried carrying a PM2 with full steel or zirc scales? It just feels like dead, unusable, unnecessary, weight. They look cool though.

I tried Zirconium from Menton Boss once on a PM2. They were just too heavy.

Re: S90V Obsolete?

We seriously need a "LOL" emoji in this forum.

Long live S90V!!! It's been my favorite for years and I have over a dozen S90V Spydercos.

If Magnamax makes S90V obsolete, then every other stainless steel goes down as well. Are you willing to stomach that? I'm starting to realize this stuff is ...
