someone will probably correct me but the CF is the caly 3 the superblue is the caly 3.5 i have both, and prefer the size and ergos of the caly 3. mainly because i am restricted to 3" blades. but the longer handle of the caly 3 just doesnt really work for me with how slim it is, feels like im ho...

poliwog is slipit in disguise????

so ive had my poliwog for some time now and have always appreciated and loved its uniqueness as far as shaping and ergonomics go. in fact it is in my opinion the most comfortable grip and im surprised more full "four finger choils" arent implemented in designs. however today for the first ...

you must realize that the sprint runs being sold for more money has nothing to do with spyderco. it is the dirty capitalizing jerks who buy them and turn them around on ebay for double.

spyderco sprints can be had for the same price as a prodo model at most online retailers.

The gray para 2 was my first sprint, and I have been using it hard ever since I got it. Mainly because of the steel, I did not pay for an amazing steel so I could say I have it and look at it in my drawer. I payed for the awesome performance, which I get to enjoy every day :cool: :cool: PS the gray ...

wow, i cant believe no one has said poliwog
fits a few bills folded very squarely within the shape of the knife

to me, the poliwog is one of spydercos most underrated designs. besides making a great moneyclip, i believe the ergos are the best of any knife ive held :eek:
