Re: Spyderco Name Recognition?

“People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it.” Simon Sinek

Applies to exactly what Lance said! They want to operate in the way that they believe business should be conducted. Then “if you build it, they will come!”

I got confirmation of CQI changes a little bit ago: a bushing pivot system and a more recessed tip.

Hope that helps folks with their decisions,

Re: Shaman Cru-Wear Sprint Run release ?

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 Man, I LOVE THIS COMPANY!!! This is so awesome...

Re: Shaman Cru-Wear Sprint Run release ?

Hi Hamilton, I'm mostly a Broncos fan, when time allows. To try to fit a lock-back into the Shaman pattern would be challenging without making many mods. there isn't enough room for the big blade and a back-lock. sal Awesome! My grandad was one of the original season ticket holders when the Broncos...

Can someone help educate me to what Flattening actually is? I'm reading this as I need to purchase some products to help sharpen my knives!

Re: Sal the Micarta Man - Shaman flavors poll

OD Micarta and either Cruwear or K390! After all the K390 hype, I'd love to try it!

Re: Shaman Cru-Wear Sprint Run release ?

Maybe this a bad time, but what do you guys think of a green Micarta Cruwear Shaman, or maybe a green Micarta with another exotic steel? I could argue for a larger quantity. sal Sal, Yes to OD Micarta! And Either Cruwear or K390! Cruwear is my favorite steel so far, but I've been itching for K390! ...

Re: So what's your top 3 favorite steels? and why?

Sal,

I only have S30V and Cruwear, but I would definitely take Cruwear all day long! It sharpens much easier for me, in my inexperienced sharpening ability and seems to hold it longer than S30V for me at least!

Re: Mantra 3 vs Sliverax which one to get?

I vote the Sliverax! It is literally my most carried knife. I carry it over my Manix 2 and PM2. The weight is crazy light, it has a longer blade than the Mantra 3 and the overall profile looks a lot better IMHO. And Paul Alexander, the designer, is an outstanding dude! I also love that I have the fi...

Paul, Thanks for the feedback! I'm eagerly awaiting mine to be shipped to my local dealer! I've never owned a back lock, just handled them at the stores, so this will somewhat be a first!

Re: Parata Finally

When looking at the stop lock realize it is not just a matter of pulling it up but you have to pull it forward as well. I did figure out how to close it one handed but it is not what I consider safe or practical, one handed opening however is a breeze. I am well pleased with the retail price I paid...
