Re: What Is Your Favorite Go-To Spyderco?

My beloved GB1. It’s just right. From the blade shape to blade steel, it checks all the boxes for me.

Re: Spydercos REX 45: How similar is it really to cladded HAP 40, how far is it from S30V?

I’ve had it since they were available. I got it as soon as my local dealer got them in. It has taken my beloved GB1 out of my pocket for now. I’m not completely sold on the blade shape but it’s growing on me.

Re: Spydercos REX 45: How similar is it really to cladded HAP 40, how far is it from S30V?

I have been using a spyderco in rex 45 for quite a while. Either a PM2 or manix2. Great steel for what I use it for (farm life,cutting all sorts of stuff on a daily basis and using the knife to process game.) from my experience s30v doesn’t come close. Granted I use my knives for things a knife shou...

I picked up mine today. Got it home sharpened it up on the edge pro and dropped the pocket clip in some pcb board acid to darken it up. It’s ready to go in the pocket for tomorrow.

Re: How much longer for rex 45 models to be available

I was going to get a manix g10 in rex 45 but I believe I’ve changed my mind to a native 5. Better yet I may just get both.

Re: What Spyderco do you think was your best value?

My GB1. It’s such an awesome knife. Second would be the manix 2 they are what I usually have in my pocket on the off chance I’m not carrying the GB1.

Re: Best Edge Performance Steel between these choices?

I have everything except k390. My choice is rex45. I probably use a knife differently than most lol. I don’t rotate out knives for edc I use one for a very long time and use it for everything. A rex45 PM2 replaced my old trusted GB1 some time ago. It has cleaned deer,fish,been on a elk hunt and nume...

Thanks everyone!! I believe when my Rex 45 PM2 needs sharpening I’ll take it to 15dps and see how it does.

What angle do you sharpen at?

I just curious what angle folks sharpen their knives. Not counting on a sharpmaker. I use an edge pro to sharpen my knives, some I sharpen at a 15 dps while others like my GB1 I sharpen at around 17.5 dps for a more all purpose edge. The PM2 I just received appears to have 20ish dps factory bevel on...
