Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped

I placed my pre-order with KC the day it was available on that website. I have not yet received any info from them. I called them a couple weeks ago and all I got was basically that they have my pre-order but they dont have any idea if I will receive my order before the run is up. Needless to say I ...

Re: Spyderco Official Discussion Facebook page is up

This makes me very happy. The group called "Spyderco" on fb was turning a lot of people off, especially because they thought it was the official page.

The Bushcraft

I realize this is probably a dumb question before I even ask it but I need to verify. Does the Bushcraft throw sparks off a firesteel?

Wasn't there going to be a 3" blade compression lock that was based on the Native called the Shaman?

Re: PM2s, just how many...

I have 3 PM2s but about 35 Spydercos total. I have no backups. I use the **** out of them. I enjoy every minute of it. If I break or lose a knife... I move on. I hate it but that is the beauty of Spyderco, there is always something to look forward to!

Re: Evil D

These topics always make me wonder why VG10 doesn't get the respect it should. If you want a do it all steel that's corrosion resistant, tough, easy to sharpen, that takes a very fine edge, it just about can't be beat for being a jack of all trades steel. It's easy to find other steels that out per...

Re: Composite Manix?

What exactly was this again? A 90V core layered with 154 and carbon handles. It sounds like a great knife to me. I am excited that there is still going to be a release.

Re: If you had $400, what would you buy?

A Domino and a Military. Somehow I would save the money for a Pac Salt and a Sharpmaker. With those 3 knives and a SM I would be good if I wasn't such a junkie.

Re: Sal's favorite steel

I don't remember where it was, but I do remember Sal saying that S90V was the king of EDC steels. This was before S110V was tested and there have been others that have come out since. And honestly just because he said that doesn't mean that it is his favorite. It could have meant a lot of things, li...

Blurple g10 s110v Boar-gen I already have a s110v blurple knife, that seems to be the most popular idea so far though, and Spyderco is already geared to go on those materials, and if they made one i'd buy it, but i hope for a sprint run of something unique. (they should totally make an s110v standa...
