Re: Lum Tanto...Yes or No

Hap40 seems like a great steel choice. As for handle color I'm down for most picks. I do really like the grey used on the Cruwear runs.

Re: Spyderco/Phil Wilson Bow River

I have one of Phil's B&T models in CPM154 and it performs really, really well. Obviously it is a combo of Phil's expert geometry and heat treat, but I've long been a huge fan of CPM154 in other blades. I've wondered why Spyderco hasn't used it more. Probably because S30V is more the flagstaff in...

Re: PM2 Carbon Fiber S30V - clone

It doesn't look right to me either. Jimping doesn't look right, markings don't look placed properly, blade grind near the ricasso looks off versus how almost every Para 2 I've had looks.

Re: Paramilitary 2 HAP40?

I could be wrong (and probably am), but I can't recall Spyderco ever putting Japanese specific steels into US made models? I believe it's due to Japan having export policies on their steel, again I could be wrong there, but I seem to recall reading that somewhere a while back. If that is the case, w...

Forgot I'm also psyched for the "blacked out" Karahawk. I loved mine, but that super shiny ring hanging out of my pocket garnered more attention than I cared for :D.

Composition wise it is very similar to like AEB-L, 14C28n, ect. So I would expect similar edge retention.

Mine sharpened up to a razors edge easily, reminded me of like N690co on the stones.

Because you are supporting a theif. And I can tell you from having disassembled my Spydies, they aren't fragile, and it's nothing to be scared of. Just don't over tighten anything, and get a good Torx bit set. Like some Wihas.

Re: Spydiechef dropping

Any idea why it's not stonewashed the same as the Techno and Slysz Bowie? Abbazabba said its grippier...guess for traction in wet environments? It is much gripper than say like the Techno for comparison. It feels similar to a Sebenza's blasted feel, but not as aggressive because of the stonewash on...

Re: Spydiechef dropping

I really like mine. My only gripe is that the lockup on mine is at about 80% already, and when dis-engaging the lock it's a little gritty almost. However, it's very smooth, and rock solid lockup still. So I am just going to use it until something develops then I will send it in. I don't think it wil...
