Spyderco Forums

I just got a Urban in safety orange. It has a number next to the spyder, it says 061V. I was wondering what that number means.

Can you flick open a UK pen knife, or a Urban? I was thinking about gettin one but don't want one if you can not flick it open.

I am looking to add a new knife to my collection.

I have settled on either:

Urban Safety Orange

or

Meerkat

or

Manix 2 Blue or Carpenter steel

anybody have experience with these and can give me some insight.

Sage 1
Stretch 2 Carbon Fiber
Caly 3 Carbon Fiber

Anybody have any tips on sharpening a ZDP-189 Stretch 2, or touch ups? The knife is sharp from the factory, but I would like it to be hair popping sharp. I do have a sharpmaker.

I am using the lansky sharpening kit.

How do you go about sharpening a Meadowlark since it has the edge only on one side. I have read that it is a Hollow ground blade. I have only had blades that is sharpened on both sides of the blade. So how do you sharpen a blade with an edge on one side.
