It's too bad Sal lacks your keen intellect otherwise he could have really done something with his life and accomplished something. What took you so long? It seems like a drastically better design than the screwed together stop pin. I have a pretty good selection of knives with both styles of stop pi...

Use a dremel and cut a flat slot in the screw head and use a flathead screw driver to spin it out. You will likely ruin you scale in the process, but since you are replacing it then it likely doesn't matter.

True..

People can, and will, complain about map pricing, but it does help keep the good dealers in business.

Damned if you do and damned if you don't...welcome to business!

I taught Jr. High for 7 years and had a Spydero in my pocket every single day I was there. Only twice did students notice I have a clip in my pocket (I mostly carried something with a wire clip (Manix LW, Caly, or UKPK) Both times I said it's a Spyderco and they both said cool, my dad has one of tho...

I have taken thousands of PM2s apart and 99.999% of the time if a screw strips, it's because the driver used is junk. I use Wiha drivers and pretty much never ever have problems. Also, having seen so many PM2s I would say in general the quality has gone up in the last 3-4 years.

Cute...I like the knives too.

Never used eBay befor is it legit .?

If you want one now is prob. the best time to buy and still get a good price...as dealer inventories deplete then prices will jump as supply dwindles.

In the Spyderco Byte, it says that Spyderco has depleted their inventory of the Techno. So I wouldn't expect any discounts at retailers since the discount typically originates at Spyderco when they are over stocked.

The Spyderco Hoser...I like it.

Here is maybe a bit of proof that when dealers can actually make just a little bit on the brand that you are going to attract a wider and better quality dealer base.

Anyone want to volunteer to be a Dexter sort of character that hunts down bad customers who screw everyone else?

I have sold hundreds of the Domino and Dice and we inspect every knife for function before shipping. Not one single issue have I seen, and no returns from customers based on this. Read/Watch review stuff with a huge grain of salt.

He said "At some point they'd discontinue the Techno" which is a big difference between saying it's being discontinued. Saw Eric Glesser mention in the knifecenter video that the Techno 2 will replace the Techno in the line up and that the Techno will be discontinued. Bit of an own goal if you ask m...

Pretty much.

You know I was just taking time out of my busy day to give a different perspective on things and defend a great company like Spyderco. I am pretty well versed in business and the knife business in particular, but think what you want. About the "If the dealers disappear, Spyderco is toast" argument.....

Did you read any of the other posts in the thread about how Walmart/Amazon gain leverage by controlling a higher percentage of a manufacturer's sales and use that to force lower and lower pricing from the manufacturer and then the manufacturer is forced to compromise quality and outsource offshore a...

5% - I am counting the big $ right now. Think I'll run down and pre-order a bright orange Lambo! Here's what I think will happen: You are going to have more dealers representing the brand, the kind of dealers who treat people right and the perceived value of the brand will go up, not down. You'll ov...
