I can’t answer for Sal, but look at pictures of Caribbean fish and you might see the possible inspiration. For me, I would prefer all Salts be yellow.

It turns out people love the current scales and wouldn't dare adding some green and red. Evidently this model is to remain ARBITRARILY named the Caribbean. Lol Nothing arbitrary about it at all. Sal can correct me if I am wrong, but the Salt models are named after Oceans and Seas, not islands, cont...

Big negative for me. I'd rather it were all black or even solid yellow.

This.

Favorite sprint released after join date, that I own: Cruwear Manix 2
Favorite sprint released after join date that I will never own: Cruwear Micarta Shaman
Impulse chase: Polished micarta Caly Jr. in PE & SE, also Baby Jess Horn SE polished micarta.

BladeHQ is still showing it as coming soon, which is weird if they completed their lottery. All the other sold out sprints/exclusives as marked as such.

Was anyone here lucky enough to win a lottery pick at BladeHQ? I was not, as I expected.

Sadly, I expect to see another surge of flippers on Ebay and Bladeforums.

Jeff replied, very quickly I might add. Basically, they have a ton of upcoming projects with Spyderco, so a P4 LW would behind all of those. If you want to make it happen, I would email CS and let them know of your interest.

Well, I emailed CS about it. Let's see what they say.

CTS-PD1, K390 Or 4V all sound like they would be incredible!

While I would still prefer Cruwear do to comfort with that steel, I would happily take PD1 or 4V or 3V. K390 is just a little too far into the rust prone region for my comfort.

This is what we have become as a culture? Pages of complaints about a retailer the majority claim to have never used and never will use? We cannot just note to ourselves that it is not a retailer we want to use and move on to the many, many other ones that are a better fit?

Hi Busybaileymaile, FYI: The first most important value at Spyderco is Honestly. If you are not 100% honest, the conversation is over. The second is reliability. It doesn't matter how good you are if you don't show up. The third is ability. We've learned that we cannot teach the first two. If your ...

I have run across many, many products with large disclaimers in the box of whatever it is I bought saying something along the lines of "Do not return to seller, contact us if there is problem", so this idea is not unique to BBS. While Spyderco does not expressly state that same message in their boxe...

I am pleased to announce that there was a special meeting for management on this thread and they decided to make another run of brown canvas Micarta Shamans. We'll use a different, but complimentary steel and make twice as many as the first sprint. sal Thank you Sal, Eric, and the Spyderco Crew! An...

... Micarta would be really nice too with bolsters, that’s a classic look.

How could I forget bolsters!? Yes to bolsters for me as well, even if they are just another color or texture of Micarta.

We can discuss a higher end Slipit. Maybe something like Carbon fiber, Micarta or? Does the steel make a difference? Hi Michael, I'm not interested in making a nail nick model. We can discuss one hand open, like the UK, or two hand open, like the Double Dents? sal Double Dents please, with Micarta ...

You should contact Cutlery Shoppe since orange is their exclusive signature color. Who knows, maybe it is already in the pipeline?

A Pena with a small hole instead of a nail nick would be awesome.

Hi all ! I was lucky enough to grab this beauty for my fist spyderco (and well… my first value knife). I was not registered on this forum before but I really wanted to thank M. Glesser for this realization. It’s a fantastic  knife! I love everything about it, and it’s definitely a timeless masterpi...

How come some dont have the spyderco logo?

The earlier ones did not have the bug logo on the blade. I believe it was added to protect the brand and to help make fakes easier to spot or less profitable for the fake makers.
