Thanks for the direction, Sal, I'll be sure to do that.

I've had my Sage Liner-Lock for a few years now and the other day I broke the wire pocket clip getting out of a car. The way I got out I ended up snagging the clip on the steering-wheel and actually snapped it!
I've bent it a few times already getting it caught on the types of things pocket clips ...

Yeah.

I was initially happier with it. I'll have to see if I can get a better point on it or just send it in to SC.


What the ****, I'm only out $5 and the broken tip is gone...



I'd rather not drop the spine on it, but it looks like quite a bit of material would have to come off the blade edge ...

Yeah. Mayble I'll just donate the cheap Remington knife I keep in my glove-box. I have a better Kershaw living in the truck anyway.

A minute on the mill-file, a few swirls on the soft Arkansas, and a minute or two on the hard Arkansas.

More even side/side, a little more relief edge, will cut paper but wont really pop hair (good enough for a utility blade), but NO MORE CHIP! :D ...

Luckily I have a handy P-bar with my keys all the time. :D


Those are sweet, where can I get one? Or did you "make" it out of a larger prybar?


Anyway, coming home work today I passed a store that did knife/scissor/shear/tool sharpening and I stopped in. Showed the man behind the counter the ...

Thanks for all the replies.

Before we even knew Spyderco would reprofile it, he did say something similar to "I guess I'm out $125...".
He did offer to pay for the service and shipping to and from SC to get it fixed.

He is a very good friend, and if not a knife enthusiast typically knows what a ...

This is a good reason to carry a second knife as a loaner. A SAK might have done the job for him.

Yeah...

A screwdriver did the job... A screwdriver one of us had in our tool boxes...


I don't like multi-tools. In my experience a SAK or a Leatherman or whatever might do a lot of things but does ...

That's an idea, but as much as I want a brand new PM2 to replace it, or multiple PM2s, I simply can't afford another $100+ blade right now.

The PM2 was my first "good" knife, up until that one my best blade was a Kershaw Skyline. I actually have one in Alabama Damascus folded steel that I used to ...

So I'm over at my best friend's place helping him change the fork seals on his Yamaha. I am busy reading the book for some help and he has one of the forks in his lap.
He says "Hey man, can I use your knife for a sec?"

I say "Sure," pull out my trusty ParaMilitary2, open it, hand it to him, and go ...

Also, to the OP, don't forget that disassembling your knife voids your warranty, just FYI.

Good to know.

I guess that means if I ever want to get new scales I'll take one side off at a time ;)

Haha, if only it were that easy :rolleyes:


Actually, that is kind of unfortunate as I typically ...

Does anyone know of any kind of aftermarket source for PM2, or other style, G10 grip scales?

Anyone make their own?


Just a topic of curiosity.

Well, for the past 2 months or so I've been trying to scrounge away as much as possible to pay off my Ruger 77/22, and it certainly didn't help that I bought a PM2...
And now my clutch master and/or slave cylinder is starting to go out so I need to replace them.

Yay for PB+J!

Bonus is I'm getting ...

The Para 2 is imo already the perfect size. I wouldn`t want a smaller one.

Yes, the PM2 is **** near perfect, even in my hands. If I don't use the choil my hand fills the grip as intended and molded, and if I use the choil I'm just choked up a little bit.
However, in day to day cutting tasks a ...

After recently becoming a Spyderco addict after getting my second blade in the mail just today, I am scouring the catalog for other high quality blades.

I do see a lack of something in particular, a blade with the compression lock that is of a smaller build. It seems like the Junior is the smallest ...

Reading your post reminds me a lot of me. Wants a smaller PM2, doesn't dig lockbacks, prefers USA, not a fan of CF, owns a Jeep. You could be a long lost brother. :D

Haha, maybe! I drive a Cherokee, if you happen to drive a Wrangler or something even cooler, but I have an awesome Cherokee that ...

I've always carried tip-down until recently because it seems cheaper knives only let you configure them tip-down. My first "good" knife (a Kershaw Salvo combo-edge) allowed me to try tip-up, and I've since been convinced it is a superior configuration.

Main reason for me is basic ergonomics. I ...

... the 440C IMO is superior to Sandvik. Looking at Kershaw's steel chart (Spyderco only included 12c27 not 14c28) it has a higher carbon and higher chromium. I would also expect Spyderco's heat treat for 440C to be on par or better. I actually liked the 8cr13mov (Persistence) better than the 14c28 ...

I don't know anything about CPD S30V.

I've used these steels,.. CPM-S30V...

Jack

That's what I meant, sorry...

I've been hearing awesome things about the S30V, I can't wait to try it out on my Para2.



I try not to be brand/type myopic, but when I find something I like I tend to stick with ...
