P S. I seriously doubt that you are in the majority. My guess is 85% of the knives Spyderco sells are used just the way they came from the factory.

It's isopropyl alcohol. We use it at work, lol. I've brought some empty spray containers home and added my own alcohol in them because it's a pretty handy way to use it.

Never met a warranty I didn't break

So if you're like me, you like your blade to be unique. A little touch here and there that make it stand out from the rest. Unfortunately once you crack a spidey open you void the warranty.
That's a risk I'm willing to take.
Spyderco's are some of the most customizable blades on the planet. They ...

I swapped the scales on my Maximet PM3 for Green linen micarta with a diamond plate pattern. Before putting them on, I "polished" the tops of the diamonds but left the rest natural linen finish. The scales soak up oils very well for that patina look while ...

I do think we will see some popular models released with a button lock version to see the market reaction.



I think there would be a positive response from the 10% of Spyderco users who are left handed. Even if I was right handed, I prefer a knife that can be operated in either hand. God gave ...
