Spyderco Forums

The opinion of the current knife also seems to hinge on the size of peoples hands. People with small/medium size hands like mine seem to find the grip on the Lum secure enough; but for people with larger hands the design does not fit as well.

I love my Lum in ZDP-189 and it feels like I am ...

I believe the next Lum Chinese folder will be a very special carbon fiber.

A classic casual bombshell, I am looking forward to that one. I love carbon fiber as a handle material and think it would be a great match for the classy Lum Chinese. It would also retain the lightweight feel of the ...

I am a huge fan of the Chinese Lum and believe it to be the best Spyderco collaboration model ever, yet I agree that the foilage green is not my preference. I had both a black and foilage green Lum but now only have the black

The coated blade though ruins one of the great things of the Lum, the ...

This sounds oh so very interesting.

A very nice father and son design combo .

Hi Dd,

The Caly3, while popular with some afi's, it seems to be too sophisticated for the general market where the higher volume sales are found.

Seems like the same issue with the Caly Jr lightweight unfortunately.

It is really too bad because Sal's Calypso designs are some of my favorite ...

:eek: :eek:

First I have seen or heard of this upcoming.

The description said it has a carbon fiber backspacer as well as handle! I think that will be nice having the backspacer match the handles.

Excellent to hear, I cannot wait for some Terzuola goodness.

Imagine a ZDP-189 Centofante 4 :eek: . That would slice like nobody's business!

Other than that the Calypso in ZDP sounds amazing

I caught that ad too, seems to me that the release is close.

Just to remind everyone why this is such a cool knife....

I did understand from the Spydercrew that the Leafstorm has a bushing system. I did tweak the pivot and from my experience I can verify that no matter how hard you twist the pivot, the action remained smooth.

Thanks for confirming. It definitely sounds like it does have a bushing pivot ...

Wait did you say bushing pivot?? I knew that was part of the custom but did not know if it was going to transfer over to the production model.

I am still trying to warm up to the slip-its, but this Terzuola makes it easy. Looks great and would be a nice edc for the office and when out socially. I am huge CF fan and have always liked Terzuola designs.

Can't wait for it to come out.

My dirty little Spyderco secret and one that even confuses me is that I just cannot warm up to the Paramilitary. I love the Military and think it is one of the best folding knife designs and execution among production folders; but despite my best efforts I just cannot like the Parmilitary.

I hate ...

Just ordered one up, the first time I have ever bought a back-up for a knife I already own. I love my Black Lum and carry it all the time and do not want to be without one again. With the limited availability of the Lum Chinese in general I just had to get one and it was nice to get it at a great ...

Wow this sounds great

Please post pictures when the carbon fibers come in. I am very interested in how those carbon fiber handles come out also.

Happy birthday Sal!

It's also my first anniversary!!

23 for me, its my lucky number so why not.
