Re: Chaparral

I really like my Chap since I got custom (a bit thicker than the original ones) carbon fiber handles for the FRN model. But I don't understand what the 'laser beam edge' is supposed the mean. The Thickness BTE is very comparable to most other EDC-oriented Spydercos. Yes, as far as I can tell with m...

Re: Is there a quintessential Spyderco?

Dragonfly.

It has so many elevated features like a choil, wire clip. Legal most everywhere and the definition of Little Big Knife. I don’t care what brand someone is a Homer for, when you hold and use a Dfly you can see a place in your EDC immediately

Re: Chaparral

Hi Wrdwrght, Interesting observation. Yes, the market has spoketh, and we work for you. The Kopa, Sage and Chaparral series were all ideas of mine that I thought might have had longer term success. The Kopa series ran into problems with the maker not being confident to use all of the handle materia...

Re: Roadie: Tell Me About This Knife

It is neutered by design and unless you need a knife to meet those legalities I would go with a Manbug or a Ladybug Hawkbill

Re: Got this email about the Emerson CQC - 7, Ernie smiled, and share his philosophy.

I like Emerson’s as about an $85 knife. If that’s what they cost I would own a few. I sold all the ones I had but like the Elvia a good bit

Don't have one. Little small for my preferences and the ergonomics don't work well for me.

Kinda bummed out that the new rex steel will again be in that burned Orange.
It makes spydies look like something that was put in a display in the sun for 20 years that nobody ever wanted to buy…
Respect your opinion but burnt orange is my favorite handle color ever.
