Re: New Black Karahawk- Fit & Finish?

Hi Mike, Thank you for the confirmation and explaination. But honestly, the fit on the two Karahawks I had were so bad that I had to return them. And having a black coating on the Karahawk could be done by doing the fitting first and the coating after that. Sure one extra step in the manufacturing p...

Re: New Black Karahawk- Fit & Finish?

Hi jstrange, Yes, a very obvious difference in production quality between the new black Karahawk and the first generation Karahawk. Looking at close up picture on Internet of the new non-coated Karahawk, it seems to have the same great fit as the first generation. In case I just got a bad knife, I j...

New Black Karahawk- Fit & Finish?

Hi there, I have just received the new black Karahawk and while the finish is great, the fit- not so much . Since I have the first generation Karahawk, it's very obvious to me that the black Karahawk I received is not of the same quality- as can be seen of the pictures below. But the worse part is t...

The Improved Karahawk?

Hi there,

In the April Spyderco byte it was stated that the new improved Karahawk is shipping in April. But I have not seen it anywhere!
Anyone knows what happened and when it will be available?

Thanks,

Re: Manix titanium ball bearing cage

Ok so I just heard back from the guy. My price estimate was spot on. Price is 25$ shipped via western union. 45$ shipped via paypal. He has to pay a lot extra for paypal for some reason. That's why the paypal is higher. He tried to explain but I wasn't getting what he said due to the language barri...

Re: Evolution of the Spyderco Yojimbo 2

Thank you very much Scroop for positing this video!!! Very interesting information!!! Yojimbo 2 is my all-time favorite knife and I have 8 of them in both S30V and S90V steels. Yes it's designed for self-defense, but it's also fantastic as an EDC utility knife!!! What we now need is a Yojimbo 2 (fol...

Re: Spyderco’s CPM® S110V® Family

The more knives in S110V- the better. But is there any news if Yojimbo and P'Kal will be members of the S110V Blurple family?

I got mine today and WOW! It's fantastic! The quality of the knife and the sharpness of the blade is perfect! That is serious value for the money!
