Re: Tax day MAP sale!
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...

Re: VG10 HRC
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 ...

Re: Tax day MAP sale!
I recently had some new expenses crop up to financially support a significant change for my family (all good, but different), and as a result I have decided to significantly reduce my knife expenditures. Yesterday was probably the first sale in quite awhile that I didn't get anything, and it was de...

Re: Tax day MAP sale!
Indiana Knives has the Sage 5 LW Maxamet for $180 Great price for a killer knife. I picked up a couple back-ups from this sale for similar pricing. Yeah I have the Sage 1 Maxamet so figured I should grab one of these too. Unfortunately for me, I bought one at $200 from REC early this morning :rofl ...

Re: Chaparral Slipit?
Chap SlipIt in SPY27 would be incredible. I find XHP to be a great steel as well, and have no issues with it as some have, but SPY27 further solidifies the "Spyderco-eyness" (thanks Gernot!) of the model. Taichung is starting to work with SPY27, as was softly revealed in this years SHOT Sh...

Re: St Nicks UKPK?
Even though I don't always understand the specific steels asked for certain models, I'm always a proponent for more UKPK variants. Obviously, folks want this, and it's yet another sale for Spyderco and St. Nick's (eventually). The UKPK is highly slept on as a model, and truly one of, if not the best...

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
both sal Nuclear bombshell :exploding-head. The Sage 5 LW is one of my favorite folders, especially within the small pocket knife arena. Can't wait to see what other lock y'all will be using; and I'm equally excited for the SPY27 and REX 121 variants of the 5 LW coming soon. I know I had my fair sp...

Re: Building a Custom Knife for Sal: CPM S60V
Agreed; thank you Shawn. This really puts into a different perspective on why the prices of knives are what they are, and especially so at a custom level. I'm looking forward to what sal thinks of this S60V sample, and also with what you're doing with the 19C27 heat-treat. Cheers brother :clinking-m...

Re: UKPK Magnacut?
I read something that they were going to use SPY27 on the Endura line. Which would be awesome Where did you get this information ? I like the idea but strange Delica and Endela are not included ? MG2 sal mentioned this ~2 years ago regarding upcoming variants of the Stretch 2 XL. sal also mentioned...

Re: Which Past Mule Teams Would You Like to See Repeated?
I put in for Maxamet and S45VN. Taichung is doing an excellent heat-treatment of Maxamet. I'd be really stoked for the opportunity to pick up and use a nice piece of Maxamet in a fixed blade, at a decent price. This would make a killer comparison piece up against a REX 121 Mule. I'd also like a piec...

Re: Native Scout?
I for one really hope the 3.5" Native comes to pass and I'd certainly buy it. Saying there is no place for a Native this size between the Native 5 and Chief is surely the same as saying there is no place for the PM2 between the Para 3 and the Military? Dan I think much dissention towards this ...

Re: Is there a quintessential Spyderco?
The Stretch 2 XL is a great knife, too, but I feel the Military 2 is in a class above the S2XL. The S2XL is not a knife that you can push as hard as you can the M2, and not just because of the handle material, or construction otherwise. We can reference the FRN handled version since you brought up ...
