Re: Possibly Fake Spin

Looks like my fake spin that I got off eBay. First and only eBay purchase for knives. I’ll see if I can dig mine out and share some pictures in case it’s helpful for others.

Working for Spyderco

As a knife enthusiast I can think of little else that could beat working for my favorite company. Hoping the good folks at Spyderco are willing to give some insight.

What sort of things do you all look for in your employee’s as far as skills and background?

Re: Para 3 exclusive at River's Edge Cutlery

I'm pretty curious about this. I got my wife a Scallion from Kershaw with rainbow PVD finish. I thought it would just be flashy and it is I assure you, but it is way more durable than I imagined. She's **** on tools and she hasn't put a mark on it. It even took a tumble through the wash and dry with...

HAP40 and Hummidity?

Hey folks, Got excited about the Ti native for a minute before I realize they're all gone. Back to that Knife Center Delica with Pakkawood. My only hesitation is that HAP40 has a reputation for developing a patina, but I live in the deep south of Mississippi. Think temperatures and humidity that are...

Re: Found 8 more filet knives

I would love to have a shot at a Spyderco kitchen knife and supporting charity is never a bad idea.

Re: Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

Thank you Sal!

It is very impressive to me that the head of the company welcomes newcomers from time to time. Spyderco is such a great company.

Re: Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

So a funny thing happened on my way home from the local knife shop (which is Scruggs farm supply if you were curious.) I checked them out yesterday while running some errands but they didn't have anything I was considering or even wanted to handle. After a quick stop at the grocery store I decided t...

Re: Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

This is it! Tax money came in the dark of night while I slept. Going to run by the local store when I get off work and see if they have what I want or can maybe order it. I'm fairly certain they have a Native which I want to try for fit in hand. Also want to check out the compression lock on what wi...

No love for stainless scales?

I've been an on again off again lurker at this forum for some time and to my knowledge I haven't seen a single post regarding a stainless handled knife. I find that I enjoy them immensely as my collection only has three specimens without metal scales. I know they are a bit heavier, but I have NEVER ...

Re: Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

I think at this point I'm set on the Native 5, I've been doing some reading and like what I hear. Really it will come down to when the tax man gives my money back. I don't have experience with the high grade steels other than CPM-D2 on the JYD, how would that compare to S30v, S90v, and S110v? Becaus...

Re: Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

Forgot to mention. I'm trying to keep this in the $150 range. I could probably go as high as $200 but it would need to be something extra special.

Native 5 S90v or Sage 5?

I was very responsible last year and did not buy a knife. Now that my taxes are filed and I'm waiting on the refund I've been shopping around for my reward. I've got it narrowed down to two choices (for the most part). I've already got a stainless dragonfly and a nice Case knife for dressy occasions...
