2015 Delica Sprint Run

Delica 4, HAP40 stonewashed hollow/sabre ground blade, brown G10 scales, matching stonewashed clip.

I'm just throwing it out there since the Delica is not a consideration for the 2015 forum knife, so I'll be happy with a Sprint run. :D

Re: 2015 Forum Knife Model Poll

Would like the '15 forum knife to be a Delica 4 with brown G-10 scales, and non-reflective, stone washed, hollow/sabre ground CTS-XHP steel. The clip should also be stonewashed to match the blade.

Re: Your Idea Of the Perfect Mariner's or Fisherman's Spyder

Before I forget, I would love it if Spyderco came out again with the Catcherman...the perfect flexible filet knife in a folder package.

Re: Your Idea Of the Perfect Mariner's or Fisherman's Spyder

I'd like to see a Spyderco filet knife like this Bubba blade. The video is for a 9", I have the 7"....

Re: Country Knives

They do have outrageous prices, even on current models. The Native Tan series are still available in my Navy Exchange, and they're $75.00, not the $175.00 Country Knives is asking. Yes their prices are higher, but you can not go into your NEX and handle several different Spyderco designs (including...

Re: Jimping Poll...

Wish there was jimping on the Rescue 79mm/Saver Salt H1 in the "choil". I quote choil since Spyderco makes no reference to it having one, but there is a choil there.

Re: My First Day This New Year 2015

Sounds like a good day! Were you at Surf Rider? It's been a few years and a few beers since I've been there? Great barter for the Roadie, the little guy seems to have already payed for himself! Dan Yep, now called Vinings Landing. It's where I keep the boat; which reminds me, this marina would be a...

My First Day This New Year 2015

Today, I went to my favorite oyster bar in East Ocean View with a friend, and brought my Spyderco Roadie. Normally, when I dine, I bring my Case Doctor's knife as my go to cutlery for dining outside the home...this time, it was just for beer and oysters...raw oysters and plenty of them. Typically, t...

Re: Roadie - Two Holes or One?

So, is that what it actually looks like? With the Spyder logo proud like Sal mentioned? And with a lanyard hole for sure? I hope so. Sal, can you please let us know? I'm seeing too many different pics. I definitely like the last one. The last picture is the actual knife...proud logo, lanyard hole, ...

You're right, the pivot hole....so there's really three holes. :D

Re: Roadie - Two Holes or One?

Well, I'll have to disagree with Mt. Glesser, the Roadie indeed has two holes...one tiny trademark hole on the blade, and one in the handle for a lanyard tube....hallelujah and Merry Christmas. :)
