Spyderco Forums

Great thanks. I had worried that they might have closed doors on their shop, that would have been a big loss.

Hey guys/gals, anyone have trouble getting on Howes Knife Shop website? I can't get on it and wonder if it is on my end or their site is down?

My prediction is that such a knife will be build and it will be the Sage 5.

Very nice work!

That is all that anyone can ask, thanks!

Fished in a Native watercraft ultimate once. It was great! Super stable and roomy. I chartered with a guy out of Milwaukee and the guy's kayak was a tandem that he set up specifically for fishing, it had navigation lights, depth finder, GPS (!), cooler etc. It is an incredibly peaceful way to fish ...

Well, let's see....

I like you, lusted after a Sebenza for some time, then I finally got one. I like it but it was kinda like a let down for me. Don't get me wrong, they are great knives, but at a premium. The knife I chose was the Carbon fiber Sebenza 21, small. It is is really light weight ...

I love the Sage II and next to the GB, probably my favorite Spyderco. I agree that it is kinda "plain jane" but that is part of what is so appealing about it to me, nothing flashy, just all business with some subtle things that a knife afficianado would appreciate. The size for me is great and the ...

Joining the masses...I'm in! And thanks!

I bought one of those CRKT tools, nice but not worth it unless you absolutely need to carry the bits with you. The bit choices are limited and if I recall, last time I wanted to adjust a knive, it did not have the correct bit. If I were to do it again, I'd go to Home Depot, Lowe's etc and get a ...

So I know this is way off topic, but I figured there would most likely be some individuals in the know about these two rifles. I'm considering my first 223 rifle and have narrowed it down to these two. I've done a ton of online research and have seen such polarized opinions one way or another. I ...

Oooh, I'm gonna follow this one as I've been considering a super leaf as well!

I love my GB. I did add some relief to the liner and scale on mine. Makes opening and closing a joy. Access to the Spydie hole and liner lock is much improved. This was my smoothest out-of-the-box Spyderco until the Sage 3 came along. I was getting ready to order a second one at Poorfish, because ...

I feel like I've hit the end of the road for the quest of the "best" Spyderco. I'm referring to the Gayle Bradley. I was initially skeptical about what could be so special about the knife, but then I bought one and found out. The knife is beefy and solid, the blade just the right size and shape and ...

Thanks guys! Let me ask one more question, with the Knifes plus strop, do you add a compound on top of the already green leather?

So I've been very happy with my Sharpsmaker and Knifes Plus strop, both of which I picked up based on the comments of the forum members-- thanks guys! But, I got to thinking, how do I get a 'mirror' finish on the edge of a blade after sharpening? Some of the pics posted on the forum show an insanely ...

Well, I believe that random acts of kindness will usually get paid back in kind and as such each and every day I try every day to share something I have with others who aren't as fortunate. This is a philosophy I learned from my parents and one that I hope to pass on to my children as well! We would ...

So I just need to get on a mailing list for a Spyderco dealer? I always thought there was some secret handshake that I didn't know about or something LOL!

Hmmm... spydie hole = stress riser? I'm going to follow this thread very carefully.

I completely agree. There are many factors which have led me to believe the GB may be one of Spyderco's best knives. For me the best selling points are 1) M4 steel 2) ergonomics and 3) build quality. The size, as previously mentioned, seems to be a non issue once in the pocket. I would love to see a ...
