Lowest I've seen the GB2 in a while..

Keep in mind, CKW's shipping has not been speedy lately (they have a notice about shipping times right on their homepage ...

I hope to make it to a 2nds sale someday; until then, I live vicariously through these threads, some of my favorites each year.. Thank you all for sharing your pictures and experiences!

I've seen several dealers advertising some variation of "Black Friday MAP Sale 20% Off All Spyderco (except Sprint and recent reveal products) 11/28 - 12/1." Fair to say the MAP holiday is on at this point, I think!

The arrow is pointing to what I would just call the "heel" of a recurve blade. Not sure if the curvature lends itself to more descriptive nomenclature :thinking

Overall blade shape of the OP knife reminds me of the Southard Hanan. I need to carry that little guy more.. every time I do, I find the ...

I don’t love buying Chinese knives in general, but if I really like a design and the designer/manufacturer is transparent about country of origin, I won’t totally discount a knife for being made in China. I have a handful of Chinese Spydercos.. Tenacious, Resilience, UpTern, Astute, come to mind as ...

I'm not 100% it's him, but I'm confident enough this is JD to post it here - based on timeline, location, DOB, basic life details Joe has shared over the ...

What a minefield of a thread..


Orientation matters!

Mantra 4?? Looks more like a Charisma 2, imo. Wait what?

I was immediately excited to see glance through and see a few NEW DESIGNS! My deflation upon zooming in to see "8Cr13MoV/China" stamped on them was.. not insignificant haha.

The Mantra 4 looks like an amazing design, deserving of the Golden treatment. I will probably still buy one..

S90V ...

FrogLube FrogWipes? Advertised as a "cleaning, lubricating, rust prevention product." Seems like it's mostly targeted towards the firearms crowd, but sounds similar to what you're looking for..

I personally have never used the fancy wipes. Some barkeeper's friend (the "soft" liquid stuff) and a rag ...

There are couple brands that have similar designs.. I cringe every time I see them. It's too easy to just keep a dedicated bottle opener by your fridge that the design just seems like a " solution accident in search of a problem" to me.. but hey, they wouldn't be making them if people weren't buying ...

Good luck disengaging the lock with moist fingers in wet environments. Dodo 2, maybe.. Salty with a cage?

I don't dislike the idea, but based on current production and the (semi-?)extinction of the model.. I'd say we have similar chances of seeing an actual Dodo in the wild..

Congrats to the winners, so many great shots! Already looking forward to buying my 2026 calendar!

Legit. They are listed on the Spyderco Dealer Locator page as "Fradon Lock Co, Inc," but sell knives and other items on their safeandlockstore webpage. They've done a handful of Dealer Exclusives with Spyderco. I've ordered from them before with no issues. How any of that translates to international ...

I haven't used this option yet for a Spyderco knife, but was ...

I LOVE that they are re-doing the Starmate. I was instantly excited when I saw that one in the reveal! At $337 though.. it better be perfection.

I’ve wanted one of these since they came out, but could never bring myself to pull the trigger based on high price and reports of the lockbar impacting the blade’s edge. When I saw the “crazy deal” posted at American Edge, I bit, figuring it was worth the risk at $139.99.
