This. Better living through chemistry.

Niagra Steel.
We don't make a lot of the products you buy, we make a lot of the products you buy better.

I wasn't waiting with bated breath for the straight razor, but if it's called the Occam I'm automatically a buyer.

The only steel that the Sage 5 comes in that I'd say is easier to sharpen than S30V is probably SPY27.
If you find S30V difficult to sharpen, I'd recommend getting CBN or diamond stones, then it should not be difficult anymore.


This x2

If you're having trouble with s30v any diamond style ...

There's no way what distributors are paying on bulk wholesale orders is more profit per knife than what Spyderco makes by selling direct to customers even with the opsfocus discount. Selling direct to customers for any company is always the best profit. Spyderco would love to sell as many knives as ...

I feel unworthy with how many truly excellent photos were submitted this year. Congrats to everyone else that won and a big thanks to Kristi and everyone at Spyderco for continuing this fun project. It was awesome to see so many people cranking out amazing photos after Kristi's post expressing ...

If we can get it with teeth in 3v I'm all in. If we can't get it with teeth but still 3v, I'm all in.

As a 90s kid I'm all for more glow in the dark everything. A GITD Pacific Salt SE in lc200n would shoot to the top of my must have list.

The number of times I've seen a photo and thought "that's definitely the cover" is getting out of hand. So many great submissions this year!

Or probably a machete with a full tang, and then on your death bed you can will a fillet knife to whomever you wish to bequeath.

It's a lot easier to buy way too many ...

Idk if GP ships international or not.

Excellent write up! Thanks for taking the time to put it together it was a fun read!

Taking advantage of the wild fire smoke and window blinds playing with the ambient light. Just a Spyderco UKPK Titanium resting on a sedum that hangs out next to a window. UKPK Titanium chosen as I aquired it this year second hand as a grail of mine.

I'm struggling to find time this year and being without a camera and computer, worried that my submission taken and edited with a phone might look like a grift for a free calender. I personally don't care if people join the forum just for the contest, you don't have to be a regular member here to ...

For me I include s110v as a salt steel even if the knives aren't made as such. I think the steel peaks with the UKPK. The UKPK design doesn't encourage any hard use and s110v combined with the blade shape and geometry of the UKPK leaf is a monster. Ive never had any issues with chipping. Even though ...

Please tell me I'm not the only one who read the title in this voice.

All mine are packed up from a move but currently willing to buy more UKPK's to go with S30v Titanium, S30v Hennie g10 drop point, Spy27 g10, s110v, lc200n SE ...

The 113V on the blade means that it was originally designated to a collector club member. There's different tiers of collector club but they're all pretty serious expense wise. One of the tiers will give you not just any new model but any sprints and exclusives. Basically that's not a DLT knife, and ...

It's from a Spyderco Collector Club.

I do love my Temperance CruWear SE, so much so I bought 2. It would be so much fun to try 3V SE in conjunction with the Temperance's gorgeous serrations and a good Spyderco heat treat.

Sal, stuff like this is what makes this company amazing!

I've been hoping for the same. Manix XL would be the dream but I'd be interested in any model just to try 3v with a Spyderco heat treat.
