Spyderco Forums

Alright everyone, we had another week fat with great submissions. A nice variety of both blades and perspectives. I’m going to give the First Place honors to Mushroom for this creative and finely crafted shot. I’m a sucker for fungi and the two rather unique Spydercos with similar blades in dramatic...

My Jeans are all shredded from carrying and more or less frequently putting my Spydies in and out of the pocket (at some point I always have to have a patch sewn on that shredded part of the pocket) and I´d really not like a clip/handle design that actually accelerates that wear. Man, sewing a litt...

Noticed that as well. It suffers the same problem the Native Chief LW has that is being talked about in that thread. The clip is too short so that doesn't actually sit in the flat spot so fabric grabs the ridges. Debating grabbing one of the longer MXG clips mentioned in that thread, but for now I ...

Alright, I've now been carrying and using my fresh black-on-black-murder-at-midnight-in-a-black-hole magnacut PM2 for a solid week. First impressions out of the box and after a week: Beautifully constructed, perfect action and fitment straight away Wow, this knife is the blackest black pocket knife ...

Well this was the toughest judging ive done yet. Well done everyone, each picture had a case to be #1, but i had to it down. In first place is @barnaclesonaboat and his monochome shot. Its really a tasteful picture and striking even without really any color. Well done https://i.postimg.cc/FRVCVyxz/...

Awesome choice. Let us know how you like it. Was debating between the one you got, PM3 crucarta or the mules. Went with the mules. Because I waited too long on the T15 mule and it sold out. Decided I shouldn’t wait on the K294 because it was getting low in numbers. Next I’m going to get another AEB...

Monochrome Maxamet Monday, today (color photo though )

What will be my first piece of magnacut should arrive in a day or two. In the form of the all-black PM2. Excitement level is high!

Great images last week, you guys! To get things rolling for this week: here's a shot of my current go-to carry, as I've been pretty smitten lately. I noticed the work sofa has a micarta-like texture, so figured I'd take the fiber-look to the max with this shot that also shows the look of the LynchNW...

A micarta-on-crucarta sort of day.

Thanks you guys!

Trying some new perspectives lately.

Sounds like an interesting chemistry to me - I'm fond of the high-HRC mules and would be interested in testing/use if the opportunity arises down the road.

Smashed the bumper on our new truck... and so got a new plate bumper shipped freight in an absolutely huge box with tons of packaging. The packaging didn't stand a chance with my Rex45 Manix2 LW on-hand, even though they sort of matched. Absolutely crushed the job! https://i.postimg.cc/mggMPDrb/IMG-...

Thanks Josh.

Did a smooth set today that really show off the Birdseye in the maple. About 15 minutes of light sanding aff the cnc and a quick coat of BLO and ready to go.

Oh man, those look fantastic with the grain revealed!

I'm planning on testing out some of the techniques and tools I have from my stone carving experience. I am thinking it will act more like stone than steel when sharpening so I am thinking very fine diamond on various materials. I have soft backed diamond wheels going up to 50k as well as diamond pa...

Bought a cheap ceramic knife to practice sharpening on in anticipation of the HIC Mule. First time trying to sharpen a ceramic knife. Out of the box it wouldn't slice a paper towel and barely sliced into a regular piece of paper. Sharpening it was an interesting experience. Initially started on my ...

As far as the forum goes, there are many , all over the world, that have an interest in knives and edges, to some degree, that have no persons in their world with whom they can have a serious conversation about knives. All too true. I joined this forum exactly because of this fact, and I'm quite th...
