Re: Forum Update/Maintenance & Move - PLEASE READ

Images from a Samsung also need to be resized. It's hard to get mine small enough. Oh well.

Re: Forum Update/Maintenance & Move - PLEASE READ

I just discovered the BEST feature of the new Forum Update. We no longer need to futz around resizing images before we upload them!!! We can just upload the images as they are, no muss, no fuss. This is going to be GREAT for mobile phone users who might not have image editing tools at their fingert...

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

Lightening the tension on the clip, just slightly, will help. All is not lost. This is still a great design, and knife.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

I'm surprised it happened, but I think you could just bend the clip out a little.

I'm sure the Lil Native is a nice knife, but the Dragonfly is legendary. Everyone should at least try one.
RustyIron, the Chaparral is a back lock.
Uhhhh....

Re: Seki City back lock quality in 2022?

I recently purchased a new Pacific Salt H2 SE. It's perfect. Lock up, centering, edge, all perfect. I'm still confident in back lock Seki Spydies.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

Well, sadly, zhyla is right about the clip. It grabs and bunches at your pocket, because the clip should be longer, and the pivot is way too tight to even slow roll. The pivot is an easier fix, and the clip could be bent and it might help, but I'm not sure if I should. The blade and ergos are incred...

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

I always bend my clips out a little, so I hope that will suffice. I won't be sanding, using epoxy or buying a clip for my new knife though.

Again, not trying to doubt you, but I sure hope the one I get is better. I doubt I'll keep it if it has the issues yours has.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

That's what I was thinking too, from looking at the pictures. I don't want to doubt anyone who actually has the knife in hand, but it would be surprising for Spyderco to goof that up. I have one on the way, so I'll find out soon.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

I wonder if there is a longer clip from another model that would work.

Re: Endela (-sized "middle ground" knife) in the "Pac Salt family"?!

Yes to Endela Salt. Can a Salt with liners be done now to save tooling costs? Maybe it would make the knife too expensive.

Sharpen your knife, go out and cut stuff, be happy.

Thanks! It's my day off. I'm taking this advice.

Re: Spyderco Models We Need In FULL SE

Unfortunately, some of the SE Ayoobs were more like wavy PE. I know mine was. Otherwise, yeah, they would have been great.
