Re: Gayle Bradley 2

It may be worth noting that not all of Gayles knives are in m4. In fact, I don’t think any of his fixed blades are in m4. Even the nightstick is in s30v. So I don’t see why using a different steal would be an issue. But, seeing that they cant even keep the m4 ones in stock, spyderco doesn’t really h...

Anyway, i fixed it by simply removing the tube. Doesn’t need to be there. I will say it does take a fair bit of finagling to separate it from the liners as the ends are flared out.
Did this require full disassembly?
Yes

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!

After seeing others with the lanyard tube issue, I was shocked to notice that my example was doing the same thing! Not really a huge deal since it was a simple fix, but at the same time it kind of is a big deal considering the price. Anyway, i fixed it by simply removing the tube. Doesn’t need to be...

Re: Military 2

Just to to offer a little perspective of when it might come out, the frn native chief was announced something like a year or so before the military 2 and we have yet to see that come to market. I feel the m2 is still pretty far out from production unless they bump it up in the queue.

Re: Stretch 2 XL Cru-Wear vs Ayoob Cru-Wear

Are you able to measure the thickness behind the edge bevel for both knives? I should be getting my Cruwear Stretch on Monday but I’m curious how thin they are leaving the factory. I love thin slivers, and the Cruwear Stretch XL seems to fit the bill well. The stretch 2 xl is plenty thin begind the...

Re: Stretch 2 XL Cru-Wear vs Ayoob Cru-Wear

I also have both and have disassembled them. While fit and finnish is good on both, i can tell that the factory from which the Ayoob came pays more attention to the little details. For example, on the stretch and all other seki city backlocks they leave the inside of the knife unfinished. The backsp...

Re: Tip Up Military Mod

I would like to do this mod but I don’t have any knife handles I’m willing to harvest for inserts. Is there someone that knows which size threaded screw inserts I will need for this? These are what I used... Quick and easy mod. Thank you. Can these be installed from the opposite side so the clip sc...

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!

It will be very interesting to see how these will sell. I am a big fan of this combination but the price could be the downfall of this knife. The price just does not compete with anything else in the models category. We will see. (I ordered one, btw)

Re: Para 3 Blade wiggle when closed - how to resolve?

I have Military that has detent play as well. I’ve decided to ignore it but if there is a simple fix I would be interested in fixing it. It’s the only knife I’ve ever had with this issue.

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!

The price is a healthy reminder of why we don’t see a lot of G10 variants come out of Japan but this model definitely deserves it!

Re: What do you se people think about crks serrations?

Lol! I’m a little surprised by the type of reaction this got. But, then again, I’m not big into serrations myself so I don’t really know what to look for. I guess that explains why crk is not currently producing any serrated folders.
