Re: Spyderco Custom Shop



SE is also going to be a no go for small makers...


Anyone can make serrated knives. You just buy a grinding wheel for it.

I don’t get this custom shop thing that always pops up. Are you going to pony up $2k for a knife? I can’t see how Spyderco would entertain this otherwise.

There are ...

Re: Spyderco Custom Shop

Are there no Japanese makers working with H2?

H1 is basically extinct as far as I recall. SE is also going to be a no go for small makers...

Yeah, I don't see this happening unless Spyderco just decides to make a large SE H2 blade.

Re: Please, help me track a Schempp Bowie

The Gun Crew has one listed for $250 and has a legit brick and mortar in TN (per google streetview)...I don't know if they ship internationally but you can call them.

Good luck.

My first question is how we recovered all scale and clip screws but the pivot bushing eluded us... ',:-|

This is terrible news! Paul is such a source of light; I have full faith that he will grow from this absolute trash situation. Community & family are front and center, Paul I wish you nothing but the utmost favor.

Re: Anybody use a push mower?

Hey Jim,

They are called Reel Mowers, after looking them up, you can find many great options from brands you probably are and are not familiar with and I look forward to hearing what model you settle on.

Other: Fixed Blades

A place to post and praise any fixed blades you may own or come across. There are no maker qualifiers here, if you like it, share it!

Hope to see heirloom, flea-market, forum find, new maker and old faithful designs. The Off-Topic forum needs a place to appreciate any and all fixed blades that you ...

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?

To be fully honest, I'm not sure that I'm going to keep it around. It's beautifully well done, but doesn't do much that the Junction can't, and is much more niche/impractical. I can't love the sheath, and if I were going to carry it often, a replacement would definitely be necessary. A snug fit ...

Re: Random: General Spydie Chat



I still have never even held a DF2, I'm thinking K390 but could be persuaded otherwise. Would y'all recommend Leaf, Wharnie or Other (shape/steel)...I'm leaning towards the K390 Wharnie.

Edit: Patience be damned. I went with the K390 Wharnie. Looking forward to it and the Nightstick's arrival ...

Re: EDC Excellence: A Spyderco Ikuchi Review

I don't know how I just came across this thread. Great write-up Zulu! The Ikuchi is one of the most underrated designs ever put out by Spyderco and Paul Alexander is a genius full-stop. If you don't have one, you need one and if you don't get it, you need to study harder.

All I would ask is for a ...

If you want to destroy knives their are much cheaper solutions availible. You can get glass or granite for cheaper than titanium for sure.
