Would or could you use other types of steel, such as Lc200n, or N690?

As others on here posted and from articles I have read there is an ongoing wave of car thefts and break-ins. This has always happened but it has increased in recent years with soft on crime policies. My question: What are methods and ways (legal, no booby trap stuff!) for people to thief-proof or ma...

Everyone, whether you are into metallurgy or not, can you please give me your sincere comments on these two knives? One is this Marbles (Made in China) VG10 lock back with brass handle. It lists the steel as VG10. Do you think this is real VG10 and is there anyone who has tested it? That is very coo...

Sunscreen prevents cancer. HOWEVER, sunscreen absorbs through the skin and into the blood stream and they don't really know what it does, then. This is one reason that it concerns me. I appreciate the valuable insight into the quality sunscreens by the others on here, though. I was wearing some SPF...

Personally, I'd like to see 14C28N in some knives. It is tough like AEB-L/13C26, but is a stainless nitrogen steel. I agree 100 percent Doc. I"ve seen 14C28N in other company"s knives and I'm confident Spyderco can do well with it. Works very well in Kitchen Knives. Ankerson it is good to...

Buy a sunscreen made to European standards, even if you have to buy online. Most, if not all, American made sunscreens, wouldn't hold up to European standards. Most people will get plenty of vitamin D in 15-30 minutes outdoors. Of course, sunscreen will lessen how much you get. Thank you. Are there...

What occupations will super AI effect vs not?

I ask because I read and hear both sides. Medical doctors claim sun exposure causes skin cancer. But others say sunblock blocks sunlight from the skin which prevents Vitamin D production and vitamin d protects against cancer. Doctors counter respond by saying a proven correlation exists between sun ...

Please? And maybe in 14C28N steel? AND tanto point?

I imagine that we'll be able to entertain these "dreams" when the expansion is complete and the new machinery is operative.

Sal it's so great to see you here.
A Pacific Salt Tanto in both SE and Combo or PE would be great.

Bill and anyone else, a fisherman told me plain edges work best for filleting and butchering fish but serrated work best for cords and line. Is that true?

Always go to legitimate knife stores and verify that the item is coming direct from Spyderco. We must all stand together against these criminals who make and sell fakes.

Essentially what happens? The counterfeiters get one of the originals and then back at wherever they have factories, they somehow use their machinery and molds to make a knock-off from lesser quality materials and then these companies like Wal Mart and Ebay Sellers purchase and resell them to the pu...

Hi, SEF: Yes, definitely a counterfeit. Can you post a link to the site you found it on? Thank you! Kristi Yes. It is sadly on multiple sites. Here we go: I used Tiny Url to shorten the web link. This is from the Wal Mart site: https://tinyurl.com/5dhjfrks This is from the Zoro.com site: https://ti...

It is definitely a very real problem. I am and have been an advocate for plastics/polymers but I am for safe plastics that do not harm people and the enviroment and animals and plants. If we could move to diamond polymers which are nothing but carbon arranged into a diamond like structure, perhaps w...

As all of you know we have now had 3d printers capable of producing objects from polymers, metals, glass, ceramics, and various materials for some time now, and some of you on the forum even have them and have used them. I'm just curious: Based on what you know and see, what are your predictions as ...

I know I'm late to the party, too but HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
