Spyderco Forums

I challenge all of you to try a Harpy as a companion blade to your main EDC folder. The G-10 Harpy is truly a near perfect companion SE folder. Next on my list as I try to resurrect my collection. The G-10 Harpy is the Grail. Don't know if I'll ever be able to find one again. (Still don't understan...

Just think of a PE hawkbill as one large single serration scallop.

"Teeth" is plural, as in, more than one.

Well, there is now. A Meadowlark Hawkbill SE. My first Byrd knife. :party-face I've owned many Spyderco knives in the past and still have a small batch (around 15-18?), but I never got around to pulling the trigger on a Byrd (another deal on a Spyderco always seemed to pop up each time I thought abo...

It's funny, no matter how much you pay for a knife, there is always a pricier one out there. I just saw one for sale (used) on another forum with a starting asking price of $3.2K. For a USED knife. And it will probably never leave the safe. And I'm sure there ARE pricier ones out there. Personally, ...

But I also would love to see the rebirth of the Superhawk with a G-10 handle as well. At least give one or two of them a Sprint Run with those handles.

WITH teeth, please! ALL hawkbill knives should have an SE option!

Getting back into actively adding Spydercos by trying out the Byrd line (for starters). Byrd Meadowlark Hawkbill SE.

I STILL think a G-10 Spyderhawk/G-10 Harpy set is a good idea (it will never see fruition, but it's a good idea). I'm up for whatever we can get. When hawkbills first started coming out, I think it was an idea before its time. Now there are a lot more people who know how useful hawkbills actually ar...

I would love to see a new Cricket!

I think you should leave the blade shape as is. To me, that's part of what makes it a Cricket. As for the handle, I agree that it needs something "grippier" than SS, maybe G-10 or FRN or...?

I know this is resurrecting an old thread, but I remember reading somewhere that the actual knife used in the movie was a rubber one - based on an actual Harpy (they thought using the real thing was too dangerous/accident prone). Don't recall if the real one they based it on was SE or PE.

Matriarch
Rescue 93mm
Native III SE
Ladybug Hawkbill
Harpy G-10

Too easy. Opening the latest Amazon/Walmart (I forget which) box.

I keep a Ladybug Hawkbill in my keychain and it can handle 90-95 percent of day-to-day cutting chores. And if it can't, it just calls out one of its big brothers.

It's funny. Most of the first twenty-five years of my life, I thought there were only PE blades. Oh sure, I had seen some SE bladed knives, but I subconsciously categorized them as saws or 'survival' knives when I saw one. Then, one day I was walking along and I kicked up something in the grass. Whe...

This one makes a GREAT all-around user due to the 25%-75% PE/SE ratio!


Same knife - another view

I have to applaud Sal and all the crew for coming through with another knife requested from/by forum members. I won't be getting this one, as the only version of this model that I liked was the fully serrated one. I don't know why, but this model just never appealed to me very much. I can't understa...

Needless to say it, but I would definitely be in for a Delica-sized version of these:

I think the Superhawk would have sold better if there had been an SE version available.

But the two that I would really like to see in SE are the two Breedan models, the Captain and the Rescue (I still don't understand calling it a Rescue without the option for an SE version!).

I have to agree with this.

I haven't spoken up yet, cause I hadn't really seen a FB Hawkbill that I liked yet (Although that Boomerang is starting to grow on me!). Then I saw this. Personally, I like this design. The bonus 'wire/rope/cable cutter' on the back of the blade seems like it would be a real plus! (Plus, there's eve...

Hawkbill knives have been the traditional style for roofers, flooring, carpet workers for a very long time! http://www.spyderco.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=24&pictureid=1287 http://www.spyderco.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=24&pictureid=1288 http://www.spyderco.com/forums/picture.php?alb...
