Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?



A BladeHQ SE Dodo, the Crucible PM2 and a resold, unused Sharpmaker.


Sounds like a really good solid score to me...


It was a pretty sweet deal. I've never owned a Sharpmaker and this one came in for under $50. It arrived yesterday and I've already used it to get very sharp edges on a ...

Re: Para Military® 2 Red/Black G-10 CPM® MagnaCut® Crucible



I went back and it let me put another knife into my cart and start the check-out process. Looks like you can buy more than one but you have to do it one order at a time.


This was an unfortunate challenge with the platform. We are reviewing each order, and anyone who ordered above the limit ...

Sold out and lasted way longer than I expected.
I got one, makes me feel better about missing the MagnaMax mule drop.

Checkout was a breeze. 👍

The collector in me was extremely tempted to grab two but I held out and only got one to save some for the rest of you guys. :winking-tongue
I put two in my cart and it said 'invalid order.' Looks like they're limiting it to one per customer to try and suppress flippers.

Hey, I got one. And only one, as it seems to be one per customer, which is only right. Down with eBay flippers.

Re: Oddball blade steels





One of the biggest travesties of the whole thing with Crucible that I haven't heard anyone talking about is the demise of 3V.


I feel you. I've been picking up knives in 3V lately because they're still cheap, and it's a great steel.

I have heard from one of the biggest proponents of 3V ...

what in the world. I can make PE H1 do what you tried to do and still shave.


Kindly demonstate with a test? Maybe you can teach us something?

Please include edge angle, edge finish, abrasives used and other details.

Perhaps also include a high carbide steel at a similar edge angle and ...

How is Spyderco's serrated H-1 steel compared to the new H-2 steel?
All I know is that H1 is a wear-hardened steel, which means the serrated teeth get stronger and harder with use; H2 steel doesn't have this property, it's already as hard as it's going to get.
