From what I'm getting here it sounds like everyone wants a G-10 Delica with a new lock mechanism. Personally I like the size of the current Para2. In public it may seem like a large knife but that may also be due to the colors of the Para2. Black and Digicam (in the stock models) are not the most fr...

For me it's the Pacific Salt with a leatherman super tool 300. It's the perfect go to knife for the rainy day that I may just leave my EDC at home.

Dodo

I know everyone has been crazed over the sprint orange DODO. What is it about that design is so attractive? Are the ergonomics just that good? I keep watching reviews and other videos on it but I just can't get the feel of it. Maybe someone here can help me understand the craze.

Today the Para 2 cut about 25 IBP Beef cardboard boxes. This stuff is just about 1/4" thick. I hate to say it but I almost feel letdown. Cut the first 4 or 5 just great but after that I had to really work to cut them open. On the last box of the day I had to make a sawing motion to cut it. I'm ...

I bought the ambitious just to find out what all the hype was about with spyderco. I carried it twice then put it in a box and went back to my Benchmades. Then after seeing the blue Delica FFG I just had to pick that up. Since then the Delica has left my pocket a total of 2 times and those were beca...

Yeah I'm just not gonna buy knives there anymore. Sharpening/ supplies and occasional pepper spray for female family members and that would be it. Yesterday I went in just to kinda check on the prices for the para 2 and right off the bat they asked me if I needed anything sharpened or lubed/ tighten...

My local shop had a manix for $159. The knife just does not have that huge attraction for me like the para 2. If I'm correct it is just 154CM? I agree I need a new shop but they are quite loyal to me, just really rough with knife prices.

$90? I saw it listed on the spyderco website for $219. Was I looking at a special model? Where can I find it for $90, I'll pick on up tomorrow at that price.

Paramilitary

I'm pretty new to spyderco, I recently bought a ambitious then I have a Delica on it's way. I was really interested in the Paramilitary. I started doing some research and hear pretty great things about it. I just have a hard time with the pricetag. So my question is, is it worth it? Does it stand ou...
