Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange

looks like the sage LW is becoming the go to steel platform for new applications. I hadn't used a sage LW before I picked up one in M4. Its great, even better with aftermarket scales. Rex 121 is like looking at flight paths of aircraft and then you see the U2 or SR71 flying way above!

Re: Why don't you Baton?

I camp via leave no trace ethic. I've never found a need to baton. I use fuel smaller than my thumb that is dead. I may need to shave down wet wood but I've never been out in the woods or backpacking and thought, wow, I need to baton wood. I did a ton a wilderness travel with a SAK, never felt I lac...

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange

I'm very interested. Are there any knives currently in REX 121? How does it compare to maxamet?

Re: Where Have all the Calys Gone?

I didn't realize that the UKPK came before the Caly 3, thought it was the other way around.
Caly 3 is such a great, thin, working carry I hope for a few sprint runs sometime.

Where Have all the Calys Gone?

I rotate between a sage 5 and Caly 3 in Hap40. I love the compression lock but nothing seems to fit my hand like the Caly 3. As I see some older models (GB2) come out in newer steels I'm wondering when we could see a caly LW in magnacut or K390. I know its hard with a Seki manufacturer but this is s...

Re: MULE TEAM™ Future Predictions

I would still love to see an 80CRv2 steel. It would be a good baseline for testing with steels like 52100

Re: Steel similar to Super Blue but tougher?

I'm scratching my head about HAP-40. I have a caly 3 and it hasn't been my favorite steel. In my experience I can't get it to the same screaming apex of super blue or K390. It does keep my working edge well. I rediscovered my SB caly 3 this summer, wow I love that knife!

Spyderco Southfork is my favorite knife that I own. Great working edge. I have not had problems with it.

This something is also what i feel i received - a Lavaflow PM2 in M4 from SMKW i think and a Bow River i’ve almost no use for fixed Blades and the little need i...

The scales by themselves would cost you around $150.

Re: Spyderco Seconds Sale Scores

I purchased a mystery box for $150 and received a SMKW fat carbon - red PM2 in M4 and a bow river. I feel like I just broke even. Love the M4 steel, not a fan of the scales. I love the bow river but do not like the steel at all. I also purchased a sage in maxamet. Yes, I'd roll the dice again but th...
