Spyderco Forums

I can second the recommendation for Blade Runner Knives -- awesome place, awesome owners, able to order knives for you if they don't have them in stock, bought several Spydies from them. Don't remember what they carry in the way of kitchen knives because I never pay attention to kitchen knives anywa...

Hello and welcome to the knife scene! :) eBay is a bit iffy when it comes to the more popular models -- there are fake Polices and Enduras on there, for example (made in China with low-quality steel and unauthorized by Spyderco). But AFAIK no one bothers to clone the sprint runs (usually), so you sh...

I would also like to thank the mods for running this great place and hosting the yearly calendar contest. :) And Sal for paying attention to it and commenting here as often as he does, and answering questions about knives sometimes. And all of you guys for the knowledge and pretty photos you share. ...

They're out already Then why are they not listed on Spyderco's website along with their other stock :confused: I'm pretty sure they didn't change the model number so sites might not know exactly which version they have. If you want one you might have to call and check if it's the saber ground or FF...

At one point, I could've sworn there was a flat-ground Rescue featured in a "coming soon" entry on Spyderco's official site, and also it's listed in this page in a Spyderco official magazine. I can no longer find the entry for it on Spyderco's website. Did it get canceled or something? Am I just ima...

I have a proper but the grind is too thick, it’s not a great slicer.

Ah really? That sucks, I really like sheepsfoots and the Proper is one sleek-looking knife.

If Spyderco made a similar-shaped thing, I'd probably buy it. Sheepsfoot blades are great, and I'm always looking to try out more.

Wow. Didn't know the brick-and-mortar store situation was so dire out there, that kinda sucks. Sure it's great that online stores have made it easy to buy things, but it would be even awesomer to have both at once. Where I live, there's a knife store run by some friendly people, and a sporting goods...

Can confirm that the https version of these forums is still not working in Firefox. I am currently using the unsecure plain-http version.

https://i.imgur.com/UWYKu4j.jpg My favorite knife, the Rescue, clipped inside right sock for cutting zip ties, most food, and most other things that need cutting. Endura clipped inside waistband or in a zipped jacket pocket for anything that a plain edge or a pointy tip would be better for. Does an...

Small: Native, Delica. Don't carry the Natives much anymore, looking to buy a Delica to keep in the garage as a box cutter. Not knives I prefer to EDC, but awesome for some tasks. Too small: anything smaller than the Native and Delica Medium: Rescue (old lightweight version without liners), Endura 3...

I like the current version of the Endura very much. Aesthetically, I prefer the pointy tip of earlier versions, but for practical purposes I like the tip on the current version. It's wider and better for spreading peanut butter on bread. And if I ever decide I really want a pointy Endura, it'll be ...

Finally have a good pic of the pair that's replaced the Natives I posted above as my favorites.

Endura 3, and the second major CQI edition of the Rescue (which didn't get an official name change or different model number than the previous one for some reason)

Both with ATS-55 blade steel. Made in the mid-to-late 90s as far as I can tell.

Yeah, I wasn't thinking so much of a clear FRN knife but rather something that's about the same shade of grayish light green as the G-10 jade knives. But clear would be pretty epic -- unlimited dyeing potential, or just leave it clear to have a super cool clear knife that lets you see all the inner ...

Oh these photos are pretty cool. I don't get the reference but I like the knives

Has there ever been an FRN knife with the jade handle / DLC M4 blade combo? I really like that combination of color but I prefer lightweight knives over the G10 models.

Oh,, the joke is on me then
*Blush*

Ricocheting zing? lol

Easy mistake to make though, most of the regulars here are dudes after all *shrug*

Serrated Worker, 'cause it's very small and kind of weird-looking and has that narrow delicate tip. Seems like a good fit for a kinda weird, scrawny and very short person :) No offence m8,, but i wouldn' t boast my "narrow delicate tip" like that. 😋 ZING!!!!!!! Haha nice one :rolleyes: :D I am fema...
