Re: New Spyderco Paysan CQI: defective & disappointing

Where did DLT Trading say that all of their Paysans in this latest run had lock stick? I’d like to see what all they said. Mine came in from them yesterday and, while I haven’t played with it much yet, I didn’t notice anything particularly unusual. Honestly, I’d prefer a bit of lock stick over the a...

Re: M390 Delica Blue FRN Bento Box Shop Exclusive

Re: Spyderco Paysan

The fact that it was an integral was the only thing I found appealing about the Nirvana. This, however, is a different story. Love the blade and handle. The clip isn't quite what I'd have chosen, but it's fine. This thing has great potential.

Re: The Advocate - An Official Statement from Spyderco
