Re: Lum Tanto...Yes or No

How about a super blue and hap40 laminate?! That with some Carbon Nishijin scales would be absolutely amazing! Or or possible some black/grey or black/blue zome. On a side note, I'd really like to see Vanax used at some point. Not sure how realistic that is, but I really want a Spyderco knife with t...

Re: Complete list of Sal Glesser designs

Thanxx Ken, I really like them all or I never would have run with the design. I'm a bit anal about "getting it right", by my standards, as is Eric. I have noticed that my preferences have evolved as I've matured, but I still carry a different knife every day, usually a proto or concept th...

Re: MT25P - Mule Team Fixed Blade with LC200N

I ordered mine just after 8:00am PST today! What was impressive was that the Spyderco store had sent shipping confirmation with tracking only 45-50 mins later!

I pre-ordered one from knifecenter but they still have it showing in pre-order status. Hopefully will ship out this week to me (along with my urban K390 that Ive been waiting for)

Re: Janisong...

Hey, brj: Peter is a cool guy. I met him when I was with Blackhawk. He was researching a book on tank warfare and was interviewing one of my coworkers who was a retired armor officer. Peter had a thing for knives, so I showed him the JaniSong and Brent Beshara's XSF-1 dagger. He was really impresse...

Re: Slipjoints rock!

Really like that PITS, been wanting one for a while now but the price is holding me back. I got it on a trade (I traded my GB2 for the PITS) Good trade $$ wise, I'm sure I'll end up grabbing one someday, recent/coming drops have been keeping me busy, working that knife fund hard :o I hear that, my ...

Re: Slipjoints rock!

I recently got a P.I.T.S, it has a cool mechanism on the top of the handle to "lock" the knife in place. But it doesnt really lock, kind of rolls into place and makes the knife hold the open position, would that be considered a slipjoint knife? https://www.spyderco.com/pix/products/large/C...

Re: Native 5 is probably my favorite model of Spyderco

I like that it's not too big and not too small. It's small enough not to be scary but big enough to be useful. Not that the df2 isn't useful but I just feel the Native 5 to be spot on. I agree with everything you said! I just picked up a fluted TI version of the Native 5 too, happy to add it to the...

That's a good one! I had the dark blue S110V LW but sold it since I already have S110 in the Green G10. On my list currently is to try and get a fluted TI Native 5 at some point.

I see in the new Byte newsletter that a new Mule Team is being released on April 12th

I'm excited, been waiting for the next one to be released. Has Spyderco announced what steel is going to be used for this Mule yet? Is Spyderco going to be taking orders thru the forum?
