Spyderco Forums

I have several Smocks. My one complaint is that the angle of the choice is just a little snaggy. If that part of the knife was a little less curved it would be perfect.

I do have to say that presenter is a good speaker.

3 large trash bags full of 1/2" to 1" wide strips.

Still cutting smoothly, no snags. Still has some shaving ability left.

Starting to think this is the real deal. Sharpens nicely, killer edge holding, solid corrosion resistance and seems reasonably tough.

I'll see how much more it can cut on ...

Unfortunately Sal has previously indicated that MagnaCut won't be making it to Seki. IIRC that's due to the economics of shipping steel over there. Which is a real shame as the core Seki lines (Delica, Endura, Rescue and the matching Salts) don't really have Golden-made equivalents.


Are all ...

For me it's all about the design rather than country of origin. My favorites are split between golden and seki. street beat,police,manix xl, c95, military 2, temperance 1 & 2, etc.

not the pac salt for you?

Of course if MagnaMax was imminent in Seki, that would work too. K390 is my favorite steel except for the corrosion.

LC 200 is already offered in Seki models

Other than handle color options MC really brings nothing to the table


I respectfully disagree. But actually along those lines I have found that both LC200N and H2 seem rather close in performance (yes I know that H2's edge retention is quite a bit less ...

Hi Hobbyist,

I would suggest you call the store. I would guess they are available separately.

sal

Ok great. I was mainly commenting about them not being sold online. Will call during the week. Thanks, Sal!

• Delica PE (M390 and K390), by far

• Dragonfly SE, PE, Wharncliffe

• Stretch 2 XL SE

• Manbug leaf SE

And list your top choices from that city

I'd love a PE delica and PE endela in magnacut. With their blade shape, not that of the salt or pac salt (yes I know the pac salt is more akin to the endura). I'd also be all over a dragonfly in Magnacut PE, SE, and Wharncliffe PE.

I know getting steel to Japan is an expensive endeavor, but my ...

That base is awesome. Or should I say _was_ awesome. Because I lost mine. My golden stone is in perfect working condition, but I'm sad without the base.

I believe this should be something you sell separately. Please consider it.

I'd love a Native 5 with Chaparral blade thickness.

Wonder if that’s that much different than a chap XL

The gimping on the choil and the thinner blade stock turn the lil native from a knife i wish i could like to a knife i love!

BD1N is… fine, but I’d love to see this thing in SPY27 or even magnacut!

1/ K390 Delica. My cardboard workhorse. I’ve patinad it and I use it with a lanyard and no clip and that makes it the most ergonomic knife I have. I’d love to swap this out with a MagnaMax version (wink wink).

2/ SE Stretch 2XL,VG-10. This is my personal steak knife, I use it in the kitchen daily ...

I would be down for a Delica in Magnamax!


Please this. I would be really sad if the only knives in MagnaMax are the ones in MagnaCut. Seki doesn't have anything here yet, so that would be awesome.

My favorite steel is K390 except for the corrosion aspect, which is why I go with other steels ...

I use a k390 delica for my cardboard cutting. I love it and only need to sharpen it monthly at most. Recently I’ve been wishing for an easier one hand operation. I would like a para 3 LW.

I’m not worried about corrosion. Curious if I’ll see substantial differences in 15V v Magnacut or if both will ...

You really should try the MagnaCut Chief, it's a beast.

I still have a suspicion that 15V would have been awesome in SE.

How did I not know there was an SE version of this??

tl;dr

SE are the bees knees and you need to get with the program. Just as with PE knives, not all SE knives are created equally and different combinations perform better than others. Towards the end there's a bit of why I'm bothering with all this if you'd like to read that.


For ...

Maybe I’m crazy. I know spyderco just discontinued their SE K390. But I love my serrated knives. I primarily have less wear resistant steels in SE: VG-10, BD1N, H1/H2, XHP, and LC200N.

I use the VG-10 manbug leaf for my keychain, the VG-10 stretch 2 XL for a kitchen knife, the BD1N para 3 in the ...
