Spyderco Forums

Looking forward to the Special MT Forum when it goes live, and looking forward to the Z-Max Muleteam.

Well... just great!!! - Salt ffg ? Both in drop point and wharnie? At just 1.9 oz? - Finally a BM bugout challenger concerning weight (and for me the clearly better choice) - Micarta/Cruwear PM2... Yes - We are Definitely of Like Mind on this! I will get the Salt 2, and mod the blade shape, into wh...

Great mod, Dan. I always liked the Stretch handle better than the Endura for this reason. Swell over points, all day every day. I took the jimping off of the handle of my Manix 2 LW with just a bit of sandpaper wrapped around a drill bit (didn't have a power sander at the time). Much more comfortab...

I've been doing this "mod" to my Enduras, and Delicas for years. To me, it greatly improves the "in hand feel/use" of the knife, having a more neutral handle shape (i.e. without the bumps). Though, I just use a bit of sand paper when I do it. ETA: I'm fine with doing this "mod" myself, personally. O...

Of the many Spydies I have, and have tried, one of my absolute favorites is the Stretch I (there are MANY Spydies I have not tried admittedly). I know too, that I am not the only fan of the Stretch I. So, I am surprised to see no one has listed it in this tread, as there was indeed a fully serrated ...

Just came home and totally surprisingly found a package from Slovakia with my first Spyderco of 2021...A Waterway and gift by forum brother Pancake, and of such unbelievable generosity and kindness that I am actually a bit out of words at the moment.. In the pic you can see it with another (!!) kni...

Always a pleasure to read a well written story,
Thank you for taking the time

Did the prices get bumped up again?? Last year (2020), I spent less money on, and bought less Spydercos because of the price increases. Who's loss?? Now here we are in 2021... did the prices get bumped up again?!?... I've always wondered too, How long ago did the knives that the prices got bumped up...

Yes, quite happy, and comfortable with VG-10 @ 15° per side. I keep my knives (reprofiled) at ~11°- ~15° inclusive, with a BTE (behind the edge) thickness of anywhere from 0.012" to 0.005". I have numerous VG-10 knives (Delica 4s, Endura 4, and Stretch I's) that I keep "thin" like that - all are tru...

That’s a jellyfish frozen solid

WOW!! That's super cool!! (pun not intended) Thanks for posting that photo, and I'm looking forward to next years!

I like it, and thank you for taking the time to put it all together and share.
Very cool!

Again, I am not an expert here, BUT both of these look like fake PM2's. Same seller, shipping from Florida according to the listings... 1) https://www.ebay.com/itm/SPYDERCO-S30v-Carbon-Fiber-Handle-Knife-Free-Shipping/233813771422?hash=item367063049e:g:B2EAAOSwrNBfz6S4 2) https://www.ebay.com/itm/SP...

I am, and have been, a fan of VG-10, for many years now.

u.w.

While I am sure not an expert, this one does seem to me to be a fake. The price, lack of jimping, screws, etc... Camo "PM2". Seller straight up calls it a Spyderco PM2. and this seller is state side, https://www.ebay.com/itm/Spyderco-Para-Military-2-G-10-Folding-Knife-Digital-Camo-cpm-s30v-knive/224...

Wow. That's ahead of schedule right? Nice job Spyderco!

u.w.

While blue isn't one of my favorite colors by a bit, I do seem to have a growing number of blue Spydercos, including a blue ZDP-189 Stretch (though I don't have any SPY27's to compare), blue UKPK in S110V, blue BentoBox Delica 4 in M390, and a couple of blue Dragonflys - one the turquoise blue with ...

Clearly a counterfeit or fake orange handled PM2. The description says "Spyderco Paramilitary 2 stylle", and the description clearly states it IS NOT a Spyderco knife. The photos do show it as a Spyderco PM2, Golden Colorado USA Earth CPM-S30V... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tactical-Folding-Knife-Spyde...

Congratulations! Glad yours turned up. I recently found my own ZDP Dragonfly II, after having put it in a jacket pocket early last spring, one chilly day. Fast forward till mid November, and some chilly days again. No doubt you know very well just how :D :D I was when I put my hand in my pocket and ...

STILL one of my Very favorite Spyderco's. The Stretch I
With a very crisp 400 grit edge on it, it effortlessly fell through that quite soft & ripe tomato, plus some cucumber, a lil'bit of onion, and that avocado too


u.w.

That looks fantastic Vivi! Seeing that thing at only 71 grams makes me hopeful that whenever the Delica sized one is released it'll be ≤ 56 grams. You can bet your bottom dollar I'll be getting one and promptly modding it into what I've been calling the "Hyker" mod for over a year or more now. u.w....
