Spyderco Forums

Hi Incubus and welcome to the forum- I'm a newbie here myself :-) In the US, the acronym "LEO" stands for Law Enforcement Officer. I know that both the models you mentioned are definitely available to the public here in the U.S., but the situation could be different in Denmark(although I d...

I've got another question for my fellow Spyderco owners here. At what angle does Spyderco grind the edges on their blades? I don't know if it's the same for all models, but the Calypso Jr.(VG-10) is the knife I'll be sharpening. Thanks! P.S. I apologize in advance to Mr. "Stare" and his he...

Everything is fine while the blade is open, but it's starting to tap up against the inside of the Zytel handle when I close it. Has anyone had thi...

I've got a question about the blade lockup on my Calypso Jr. When the blade is extended, everything is tight and works great. However, it's quite loose and off to one side when folded. Is this common for Spyderco lockbacks? As far as I know, there's no way to adjust the blade tension on this particu...
