If we get a G-10 native with S110V I will buy 2...I will use one as hard as I ever use a knife, and I will put one away for use later on. We get a $300 fancy Ti bolstered Native it will sit there and be useless for me and probably a lot of people. I agree. A knife with that nice of a steel needs to...

I'm with Jackson on most of that. Economical offerings are important. I love my knives but they are tools. If you're gonna crank the msrp do so for functional sake (blade steel). I like the way the both of you think. I am not really into to bling. I would prefer it if my knives were flashy by way o...

I'd like to see more high carbon blade offerings. I really dig the Super Blue. Easy to sharpen and takes a great edge. I agree, especially if paired with a flow through design. Super Blue tends to corrode pretty readily. I have a gyuto in this steel, and if I chop an onion and don't wipe it down wi...

OK, can we clarify? Are you asking how favorite models could be improved, or what new models we'd like to see? I don't understand: If you like the flow-through design of the Para-Military2, then ... what's wrong with the Para-Military2? My response was basically that I love the Para-Military2 and t...

Features you'd like to see on more Spydies?
I am curious as to what features you would like to see on more Spyderco knives? I would personally like to see more knives with flow-though construction a la the Paramilitary. It makes the knife a million times easier to clean when one is out and about. It was also the primary reason I opted for the...

Almost done all my sharpening! I wasn't paying attention and went through all the grits, but still didn't completely remove the chips in my gyuto. Rawrg. Oh well, they'll come out in future sharpenings. I still don't have the bevel completely even on my Caly either, which is weird because I set it u...

What are you sharpening today?
I am taking a break from sharpening a whole bunch of my knives, and I am curious as to what everyone has on the stones/Sharpmaker/microabrasive film/etc. today? My to-do list is as follows: Caly 3.5 in Blue Super (putting a new bevel on it) M390 Para2 (needs a little bit of a touch up) Endura4 (also...

I would not be concerned. It isn't like steel quality has degraded in this generation but for some reason the commonly promoted edge angles are very high. However if you look at older knives, especially very used ones, the sharpening angles were all extremely low - for high cutting ability. Do you ...

Their correspondence is usually pretty fast, and they responded to my emails within hours. My best guess is that they receive batches of finished knives, and your order may be scheduled for another batch? A friend of mine is into paragliding. He says they should call it parawaiting, because you nor...
