Spyderco Forums

I dont know the exact numbers but yes it was limited. IF you can find one I Super-Highly recommend buying it with no hesitation. It is my hands down fave spydie of ALL time. Right up there, if not higher in my regards then my BG42 Millie.

I bought my BG-42 Millie for 280 from SFO late last year. Last one they had. Let me just clarify so you can understand it from someone whos paid the price.....It was worth every penny. Id do it again for 300 if I had to, and the people bidding on E-Bay know that too, hence the 250-280 prices shes ...

Im not trying to be a party pooper, but BST topics usually arent discussed here on our forums. For good reason too. Happy hunting to all of you searching for your blades though, i wish you all good luck. :)

Ive had it in my Sig for a whiile now, H1 Para. Para owners, you know **** right this would be the ultimate. FFG 4mm H1 in para trim? Its a no brainer IMHO. Id even buy one if they made FRN molds of the para's handle and sold it like that.

CLU, this was perfect, thank you.

Tony, is that a peanut?

Oh, and not to hijak, Id also like to know if MDP could make some kydex goodies for me too... :D

Did you round it off? It can be caused by either let tip sliding off stone or concentrated the very tip too much.

If it's only a little bit you can file down the spine to make it sharp again.

Yeah, its just a tad rounded, but definately not pointy anymore. A file, there we go, why didnt i think ...

Thanks for the reply vincent. My tip is just a little less than pointy though, not so much broken. Im afraid the belt sander is gonna do too much, but I'll keep it in mind as its a more viable option as opposed to sending it in to the Mainland. Kinda hoping i could try to hand correct it using the ...

can anyone link the pic in deacons post, my firewall here at work is blocking it! ARGHH.

TSA will let your knives pass through checked baggage. I just got back from San Diego and shipped all my spyders in my checked bags. Also inter Island, so long as its checked Baggage.

Greetings Forumites and Forumistas,

After my latest touch up sesh with my D2 Para and the Sharpmaker, I realized that over the course of time ive managed to lose the perfect point at the tip of my blade. Without using powertools, does anyone here have a method to bringing it back using the ...

I live on Oahu...Are you stopping in at HNL Airport first then flying to Kauai? Or do you have a direct flight? If you are comming in to Honolulu (HNL) First, I know a great store to pick up Spyderco's about a 30 minute drive away from the airport. As far as I know, when I was in Kauai, I didnt know ...

For what its worth, bolsters are more of an adornment IMHO. Tactical tools are more or less utilitarian in nature and tend to lean more towards the less is more idea. Bolsters add weight, additional fastners/adhesives, and bling to a knife (to the best of my limited knowledge). Maybe it could be ...

Were knuts, no doubt about that, but alot of market minded realists hang out here too, so a Katana is prolly the last thing we'd expect from spyderco IMHO. Those blades were mostly used for Killing, not much Utility. Again, IMHO, thats not really the image we want to project. On the other hand ...

Nice Oregon

Just be glad mercury is not in retro :D

I think that a lot of the responses here have been less than welcome. Even if his post might be over dramatizing the issue, give the guy a break-it's up to him whether or not he keeps the knife, and he's perfectly entitled to his opinion. No need to completely alienate him from the community.

I ...

If you follow the instructions for the Sharpmaker, its not likely that you will reuin your sage. I was very skeptical of getting my knives back to lazer sharp, after getting some experience on my sharpmaker I am glad to report that not only do i get it back to lazer sharp, I can do it consistantly ...

Wear and tear like that is normal. If you buy certain carhart brand jeans, they have a leather patch on the lip of the pocket where your clip would sit. Maybe, you can save buying one, and sew some extra denim or leather on your pocket lips so save the thing from fraying.

So far, we just know that they have designed the new para with better ergos, as far as i can recall. The para you are thinking of buying is an excelent knife. If you do decide to wait, you can compare it to the para 2 specs and see which one you like better. I know that even after the new para 2 is ...
