Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
I’m thinking particularly of the Sage2, which, IMO, needs a steel insert on the titanium lockbar so the knife can be a user without worry about wear on the lockbar. The wear on mine is almost 100%. I wouldn't disagree about bringing back the Sage 2 with a steel insert. My daily carry is a Sage 2 bu...

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
I’m happy with the prospect of further steel offerings beyond REX121 in the Sage5, but would prefer the Sage6 and after to return to S30V and new locks. Which locks they should be I am content to be surprised. Any repeat of earlier Sages would have CQI, I hope. I’m thinking particularly of the Sage2...

Re: Is there a quintessential Spyderco?
A quintessential Spydie? I’d say the one with a hole in the blade. You’re welcome. Now you can’t make the wrong choice. Sal’s designs, Eric’s, MJ’s, Ed’s and other Glesserized collaborators, all of them, are fair game. All you need to do is match a Spydie model to your particular need and price-tole...

I’d forgotten that. I have been disregarding coated blades forever. That may change now that Eric is teasing us with an in-house concoction.

Re: Knife that screams liner lock got the compression lock - why?
One thing that always feels a little off with regard to the comp lock is the somewhat unnatural way I have to pinch the knife with basically just my fingertipps when disengaging the lock. When disengaging a liner lock the contact area is much greater since the knife kind of rests on the phalanxes o...

Re: Is this the knife everyone clamors for?
It remains a mystery to me why neither 3V nor 4V has been offered in a Manix.

Re: AI art knows Spyderco
Matt, glad you fleshed-in all the predictive AI I vaguely meant in my reference to “algorithms”. Very scary.
Scarier still is that far too many of us are moths to a flame.

Thanks, Sal, for shedding some light on some decisions that Spyderco has taken. Reasonable and reassuring, as usual.

Re: Chaparral
It seems like Spyderco has given up on introducing new handle materials which was one of the original missions of the Chaparral line. The last Chaparral with a new handle material was Birdseye Maple which was at dealers in January 2021. Perhaps like the Sage line, we’ll soon end up with just FRN sc...

Re: Salt color differences
Just curious, my Salts all come from authorized spyderco dealers so I’m not overly concerned about any of them not being genuine but I noticed my Native 5 SE in Magnacut is a slightly more orangey yellow color. Was there a change in color for the FRN scales on that model? Also I was thinking of pic...

Re: Sal, a handle forward Lil Native?
Perhaps it would be better suited the name lil bodacious? Could it still be bodacious if it is very small? Maybe the Lil' Spunky or Precocious would fit that size. :winking-tongue As for choils, I'm not sure it is a requirement, though it may be preferred by some. As an example, the McBee is much s...

Re: AI art knows Spyderco
So long as AI does not infringe (intellectual property; job opportunities), Job opportunities? Technology always eliminates jobs. Have you seen a car factory lately?
