Spyderco Forums

To be honest, I love using my plain edge endura4 in vg-10. The knife fits my hand so well and I find the blade shape to be really useful. I like how maintenance free vg-10 is, and it holds a very sharp edge well. Happiness in the form of a knife. :)

Did the tip just snap off? or had the tip been rounded before from previous wear? Sorry about your knife buddy.

well using Teflon tape has worked for me, but the purple locktite is good advice.

Instead of using locktite for my screws I use Teflon tape to hold them in place. Seems to work well and is definitely less "permanent", the screws stay in place and can be taken out with less force than required for locktite. May help you out with screw problems in the future!

I've been eyeing the worker for a while now, looks like a really quality knife. I think the green handles look really attractive on this knife. I just wish I could afford one; just a little bit out of my price range. Maybe when I graduate from nursing school next year, ill pick one up for myself ...

I agree this is a great forum, and yeah I can definitely see this being a long term kinda thing haha :)

hahah I wish I was good with cars, just a matter of learning I suppose!

I love my manbug in superblue, it is an excellent little knife, I hope you continue to enjoy yours!

Do you work on them yourself?

Wow thats impressive, congratulations on your 666th post hehehe :D

hahaha thanks for the responses guys. Sorry bearfacedkiller I should have used the search function before posting, my apologies!

hahah It just happens I have an opinel no 9 In carbon. I love that knife, I heard they dont make them anymore, is that true?

I see I see, maybe one day ill be good at free hand sharpening, I can do it, but I get better results with a guided system

How do you like your edge? Plain or serrated? Toothy or polished? Please feel free to describe how you finish your edges. I like to finish my edges on the sharpmaker with the the fine rods on a 30 degree setting and then stropped lightly on denim. I find this gives me a "refined" toothy edge that ...

Gotta take advantage of the frn handles and their ability to take dyes. Plus rit dye is like $3 and you dont need to take your knife apart to do it; so no worries about voiding the warranty

My favorite pair of spydercos, the endura4 in vg-10 and manbug in superblue!
