What kind of wood are these made of?

I have seen Bob Lum's knives, but they are not produced by Spyderco.

So, just like the title says, how come the Spyderco factory does not have any Tanto offerings?

Another request for an update. I am thinking of dying some G10 scales black and am curious as to how the dye job held up over time.

There are pros and cons for each. Sadly for SE there are half again as many cons which are driven by unsubstantiated opinions. *cough* *rumors*
Go over to M4Carbine.net and look through their edged section.

There are a multitude of posts over there stating people stay away from serrated or ...

IMO the biggest thing that keeps people from going serrated is that is is a PIA to sharpen them compared to a plain edge.

Also, I agree, , CE is pretty much a waste of two otherwise good edges.

For those of looking for a Spyderedge it is sometimes the only option.
Nothing cuts through rope and rubber like a Spyderedge. I'd be lost without that option.
Those two examples are EXACTLY the reason I want a Spyderedge ...

I can understand making products people will buy, but to me that means making more of one type of blade and less of another. The combo blades are a good compromise and are fairly popular and I do not see any of those being offered either.

I can remember when Spyderco first started out and that edge was like one of their trademarks.

Now it seems like a lot of the newer knives that come out are only available with a plain edge.

What is the deal?
