.... I will say this, if you wear slacks, or thin pants, this may be an issue. I wear thicker pants almost exclusively, and this is a non issue. If this is your primary knife that you will utilize and deploy multiple times per day, this could perhaps become an issue regardless, though I don't alway...

Sounds like too much pressure leading to an overexaggerated burr being formed and ultimately crumbling your edge. Weaken the burr before jumping to your next stone, ending with alternating passes per side on each stone before moving on in your progression, and see if that doesn't lead to a sharp ed...

I have a question concerning sharpening Super Blue blades. I have a Dragonfly sprint run with that blade steel as a laminate with another steel. I don’t recall the other steel but that is not the problem. Is there any trick or special sharpening equipment to sharpen the Super Blue steel? I have sha...

I am hoping once the clip length issue is brought to the attention of Spyderco, they will produce a longer clip... ? I think the best option is to have someone make a custom titanium clip if you really want this knife. Or some permanent modification of the knife. I'm opting to get rid of it and buy...

I've been carrying the NC LW for nearly a month now, and have had no issue with pocketing, nor retrieving the knife from pocket. I saw this "issue" discussed when photos came out about the knife, but that was still when the model was pending release. Kind of hard to take a data point beyon...

I really lost my appreciation for the tenacious family after I tried to take both an 8cr and a s35vn model apart. After 3 hours of searching, reading, attempting, neither went back together. Taken dozens and dozens of knives, cheap and expensive, apart and never had an issue. The M4 Tenacious was w...

I've been holding off on the Tenacious with this exact in mind! I hope the Resilience get's the same treatment, would be a joy to have that huge blade in M4! Absolutely! I picked up the Tenacious over the recent sale and that sealed the deal! The Tenacious is on the absolute edge of being too small...

My brand new XL Stretch Salt has gaps between the scales and lock https://i.imgur.com/mJkJ6aX.jpg and the blade slightly rubs against the left scale. On the bright side there is no bladeplay and that's more important to me so I haven't played with the pivot yet. I wouldn't consider this faulty qual...

Curious to hear if anyone else is up for a Resilience in CPM-M4? I'm up for at least a pair. The M4 Tenacious has a wonderfully thin grind behind-the-edge, and has been a joy to use, without having to modify. M4 is a killer steel, to boot, and surely benefits from such geometry. The heat-treatment i...

https://youtu.be/jXt_dXhpCAs?si=oQ17vRPGqEQb2kzl Interesting comparison and very close up videos of cuts. The grit progression didn’t matter as much. More about getting a correct apex with the coarse stone. Stropping is optional but can be good . Stropping gives that extra "Zing" to the Z...

I recently purchased a new Pacific Salt H2 SE. It's perfect. Lock up, centering, edge, all perfect. I'm still confident in back lock Seki Spydies.

I recently got me a pair of K390 Enduras and they're perfect. Spyderco/Seki-City are listening, no doubt.

I ultimately skipped this Mule. Looking forward to hearing what you think of it, Steeltoez.

I wonder when the 15V will come out. Can't wait to get it to pair with my S110V Mili2 :D

The upcoming 15th Reveal (with the ton of 15V in it, as per Eric), hasn't been revealed yet. I'd say sometime this Summer at the earliest.

FWIW, It looks as though Chicago Knife Works is still listing their Spyderco sale prices.

Thanks! Stretch 2 K390 inbound.

!

I like it. If they´ll ever do the Bodacious (more my kind of "Shaman") in that combo I´ll definitely be tempted... I agree with your sentiments, though I most-likely wouldn't be a purchaser at the price point. I think it would be worth the investment for Spyderco to do a run, for those wh...

I’ve heard that xhp is no longer being made, so this could be a pretty special exclusive. Do you happen to have a source for reference? I heard it on Mark of the Maker podcast. I can’t recall the episode number. Interesting. I suppose I'll have to check out the podcast, as I wasn't aware of it. Tha...

I don't mean to be impatient (which is exactly what someone would say who was being impatient) but is there any hope that these will be out soon? Thanks in advance sal will usually post somewhere (sometimes) when he has received a production sample. That should give a decent estimation of a month o...

FWIW, It looks as though Chicago Knife Works is still listing their Spyderco sale prices. Thank you for the heads up. I missed their deal on the wharncliffe Lil Native yesterday and I was still able to pick one up for $121 today. I appreciate it. Nice score! I'm glad you were able to grab something...

Having enough wear resistance to complete a full day of work/chores to me is the most important feature. I find it ironic that the muffin man behind the camera often promotes vg10 in a negative manner. I think spydercos vg10 pairs very well with the sharpmaker too. You thought he was a man, but he ...
