I love that you didn't put no as an option!

No is the default state! To find the number of people that it's assumed would answer No, do some simple math :)

(Population of Earth) - (# who answered YES) = (# who would answer NO)

Should Spyderco make this? Would you buy it?

Edit: there's no No option because it's the default state. To find the number of people who default to No, do some simple math :)

Um... no? This is my only account. And I don't see the relevance of when my last post was.

Being a metrics guy I should enjoy this topic, but honestly never understood the significance of it, especially when taking about a knife you love. Do you want them to change the DF2? Yes. I hope the Dragonfly 3 will either have more cutting edge, be more compact, or both. The DF2 is a great little...

Your metric picked three backlocks and a knife with a choil. Spyderco likes both. You will want to look at knives that lack those features.

Popular Spyderco knives tend to fall short on edge/overall length ratio. That is, they pack less cutting edge in a relatively larger package. Some might say it's worth giving up some cutting edge for improved ergonomics, but I would argue that a good folder design maximizes both! Here are 11 popular...

Oh Dear Lord. Offcourse this is not normal my friend. Spyderco has excelent manufacture controll, unfortunately something like that happen to every company.

Received my first ever Spyderco Knife today which I've been wanting for a long long time... sadly it might be my last. The Street Beat has always been my favorite fixed blade design, but for a knife of this price I expected much better finish. I'm disappointed. The issues: Most obvious flaw: the gim...
