Spyderco Forums

Sprints are never a bad idea. And the Ikuchi is amongst my favourite Spydies. So elegant. So special.

How about a larger Ikuchi though? Still slim, yet say 20% larger? I'd dig that....

Muleheads?

Wait - you made 200 sheaths??

You do this for a living, right?

It's no official thread run and controlled by staff. Not sure if they'd do it. But I'm sure Kristi is reading this, and might check this... it is a good idea.

Question: to bring the kydex into the shape I want, is heating = softening it and then cutting it with regular scissors an option? Have you tried this? Or does fitting it while it's cold and stiff bring any benefits? Yes, heating=softening=shaping. You need to press it to form it. If you form it pr...

Does anybody know how ceramic blades are being produced? Wouldn't Spyderco need new machinery or tools or whatever to be able to produce a mule from this stuff?

How is a ceramic blade being produced? I have no idea. But I can imagine that Spyderco would need to invest in different / new machinery maybe in order to be able to produce say a mule with this?

Make it a good day for everybody! I hope you have the right people around you that make it a great day for you, too!

I had the feeling that lately Michael Janich took over Sal's mission to welcome each new forum member. Well not take it over, just support Sal. :) I don't know if I've ever seen a forum post by Eric. Eric's for sure super busy with the business side of Spyderco, so that's why, and it's totally ok! I...

There are other "Shaman" designs in-the-works, including a thinner lighter one with a thinner blade stock. sal Looking forward... Such a great design the Shaman, but will look perfect in the "little bit lighter" version Will look good, maybe even great in the "little bit lighter" version, but is pe...

Boy, CK... Post Of The Year Award nomination. Thank You!

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!!

Also, LOL Jon that's a good one!

I don't own one (I wish I would) but I'd vote for the fluted CF of the N5.

Of the ones I own, I like the Para3 52100 CF scales the most. Very grippy, yet not aggressive.

Hear me out: Here is my proposal. Make a thinned out Shaman. Thinner scales and blade stock. Fix the nub everyone hates. This creates a knife that for all intents and purposes makes the PM2 obsolete. The Shaman basically fixed all the mechanical issues with the PM2. Got rid of the standoffs that ma...

I strongly second that.

Cause this was the only part that I really could not have done, pressing in the ...

How much longer?

Working with Kydex really is easy. ... Nice work! :) It's really good to see you did this yourself and experienced just how possible it is to make your own kydex sheath at home. I hope this inspires more people to give it a try. Well done! That's why I posted this. Again, I did not do it all myself...
