Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!

I don’t think I’ve submitted this one. Disregard if I have. In any event it needed posted again. Lol

Re: This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

I use a deep carry on this knife for a very specific reason and its not to conceal the knife. When wearing my rifle on a shoulder sling, I found the butt end of my rifle stock would tap against the top of the exposed portion of the knife when using a regular clip. Using this deep carry clip elimina...

Re: This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

Nice knife indeed (except I personally am not into deep carry clips), thanks for sharing! :clinking-mugs But for hunting: Wouldn´t the thinner Bodacious blade be even better? (I am not a hunter (harder to become here in middle Europe than in most of the US), so this is really more a question than a...

This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

I finally had the time, patience and money to put together what I have in my mind as the best all around folding hunting knife. I had to have a Shaman because of its perfect ergos and thick robust blade. S90V is my favorite steel to work with and this knife had to be blaze orange, so I Frankensteine...

Re: Catcherman LC200N Sprint Run

I just got back from a trip to Florida where I got to do a lot of surf fishing. I absolutely killed the Pampano in Destin, FL. I have had an OG Catcherman that was just collecting dust as I always just default to my regular fixed blade AFTCO 7” filet knife, so I decided to see how it actually worked...

Re: Your Favorite Slysz Design And Why

The blade finish on the Techno 2 is the best i've ever seen. Why this wasn't used on the Drunken is beyond me.

What is the best application to tool steel for long term storage?

I have a lot of knives, specifically a lot of Spyderco tool steel blades. I store my "safe queens" in their original boxes, usually with OEM desiccant bags in the boxes. I also have larger desiccant bags in the safe to help prevent corrosion. Although I take these precautions, I from time ...

Sal, I was lucky enough to find one on sale for $49.99 at DLT Trading. I quickly snatched that deal. Can't wait to try it out in the kitchen or maybe anywhere!

Re: Jende Spyderco stones for guided sharpeners.

Ive never used their stones, but I have used their Nanocloth strops and diamond emulsions. I also use their nano-oil. All have performed very well. Id like to hear from someone who has used the stones as well.

Re: Sharpening my Spydercos. A simple question...

I find a dual grit edge good for this sort of conundrum - you can do the show side to tickle your super shiny mirror edge proclivities, and the back side which you don’t look at very often is kept very coarse. Often discussed in relation to maximising Magnacut performance, but works well on most st...
