Spyderco Forums

I appreciate the warm welcome from you and everyone else. I know I left pretty abruptly around Christmas. Wasn't sure how I'd be received if I came back. Checked in a few times over the first half of 2020 and was surprised I was missed. I guess in between being argumentative I made a decent post on...

His other auction is fishy, says his PM2 came with green scales and he swapped them to camo. I'm not aware of a green s30v PM2 ever existing. The box indicates a black PM2, either way, I'd avoid this seller. Agreed on the "fishy". I didn't even check to see if the seller had any other listings. The...

I know the counterfeits, or fakes, out there can be really, really hard to tell apart from legit/real ones. What catches my eyes on this, are two things. 1) Knife is listed at "brand new", but there is no pocket clip. 2) The padding in the package/box (looks like some kind of cotton balls). Link: ht...

Gotcha, Thanks. That's what I was thinking.

Though I did have the passing thought of, "I wonder if the dyslexic person who 'got' etched the steel type, is still employed?"

V10 steel! I laughed right out loud when I read it

u.w.

I suspect that this is someone selling a fake. Can anyone confirm that?

Pretty cool how many of us are like, "where's Vivi? This is one of his favorite knives. I hope he gets one of these."

Me being among one of those many. And I hope he lays that bevel back with an extra-course, de-burrs it, and leaves it at that - which was one of his preferred ways.

Stretch 1

Yes, absolutely, Stretch 1!

( can't help but think a fully serrated blade would be SUCH An Excellent cutter too ).

I’m really interested.. but can anyone explain who’s going to be manufacturing it? Spyderco or lionsteel? I’m particularly interested in who’s heat treating the blade... Good point. I imagine that LionSteel is doing everything including heat treat. The knife is made in Italy and the steel used is f...

100% Agreed, lol. I'm putting it up here, NOT because I'm considering buying it, but because I want to make aware. I'm 99% positive it's all garbage/counterfeit/fake - again - I agree with what you wrote. I recently read where, I think it was TazKristi, posted about putting the links up to fakes/sus...

Did someone buy it, or did the seller just end/move it? I ask because right under the original "ended" listing is the EXACT same thing. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SPYDERCO-Delica-4-Assisted-Flipper-Flat-Ground2-7-8-BLUE-0350-Plain-JAPAN-NEW/313044518202?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%...

On "the bay". Even the title seems "a little off". What says you? Spyderco Delica 4 Assisted Flipper? Fake? https://www.ebay.com/itm/SPYDERCO-Delica-4-Assisted-Flipper-Flat-Ground2-7-8-BLUE-0350-Plain-JAPAN-NEW/313044023628?hash=item48e2e0b94c&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&enc=AQAEAAADYHl0671ZiiuY8oSQwgFYvrUNz...

Subject line says it. Is this a fake Rubicon? To me, it looks like it is based on the bit of looking I've done on-line.

Definitely got my attention

I enjoy his videos very much, and have turned everyone I know who is curious about sharpening, or already hand sharpens, on to his videos. I hope he makes his videos for a long time to come.

Being somebody who has always been a huge fan of dystopian and post apocalyptic movies this one is golden.

Wait... What?!

You mean you don't already dress like that?

u.w.

"Interesting" video Talks all about how they visited the Golden store and factory, got a tour of it, how the quality & quality control is off the charts, made in the USA, etc... - then shows the Persistence, and never mentions that it isn't made in Golden, CO... I wonder if anyone gets that "mission...

Folding, for me, definitely the Stretch I, man I love how that knife fits/feels in my hand, and works so well.
Fixed, I'll second the: Bushcraft. Such a great knife to hold and use, and also works so dang well.

'course there's quite a few I've never put hands on too though...

u.w.

Another issue for me is that BM runs their steel soft. Wow, that made me laugh out loud. I know they (Benchmade) have run SOME of their steels "soft", but their S30V? I have not ever heard that, nor have I experienced it with the few (yes, bugouts) Benchmade knives I own. In fact, I've experienced ...

Looks like a great job on that spoon. Are you sanding it smooth? What grit? Thanks! I don't plan on sanding this one, no. That said, if the woman says she'd prefer it sanded - I'll sand it. I have some 320 grit that would smooth it up quite a bit and nicely. I could go up to 1K or 2K if there was a...

Had the Cruwear Delica in my pocket today. Went out on the back porch with a cup of fresh ground, french press coffee. There was frost on the grass. Deceided to carve a spoon for a lady I work with. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49256176977_8cdf2ebdaa_k.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...
