Re: Spyderco is like a horrible disease

Re: Community Sharpening Journal

I want to get a Work Sharp Precision Adjust but don't know which one to get. Is the base model good enough or is the elite model worth the extra money? I know there is also a pro version but I don't think I want to spend that much.

Re: Advice on my first Spyderco

Thanks everyone I have made my decision. I am going with the Sage 5 LW. After reading the advice here and searching around the internet it seemed like there was an advantage to the Sage 5 LW compared to the Para 3 LW.

Re: Advice on my first Spyderco

So to update my possible knife choices the following is what I'm now considering

Para 3 LW SPY27
Para 3 G-10 s110v, Maxamet, or K390
Sage 5 LW
Delica 4 M390 or K390 Wharncliffe

Thanks for all of the help so far.

Since you are blade restricted, why not just try a Delica ( many color options) , decent all around steel , or a Salt for use in any type of weather ? If you have...

Re: Advice on my first Spyderco

@spyderwebs Yea i would get a pm2 but unfortunately, the blade length is illegal where i live. I could probably get one and never have it taken but i don't really want to worry about it. @wandering_about Looking through some forums i have seen that a lot of people like the native 5. I'll check it ou...

So I have 2 questions that will help me determine which Para 3 to get. 1. Lightweight or regular? 2. Which steel to choose and why? I am currently thinking about getti...
