Re: The most reliable locking mechanism Spyderco uses?
I am not interested in arguing this assertion, but for a reality check I and perhaps for newcomers to the knife world who may read this thread, I would like to point out: Oh well, the new Aristotle; this forum lacked a pedagogue Which is to say that it is only opinion. This is an opinion. Well, no....

Re: The most reliable locking mechanism Spyderco uses?
And you know that for a fact because... That liner locks suck or that they exist only for flip your blade out? The first by my experience and the second it's an obviousness. When i was a collector i bought a lot of liner/frame lock knives, and i was fine with them until the day that i tried to use ...

Liner locks are just a mess. The only motive why liner locks are still on the market is because you can't flip your knife with a back lock.

Re: LC200N or BD1N
The only thing that M390 and namesakes gain over S90V/S110V is a slightly higher corrosion resistance (obviously with the right HT); S90V has double the wear resistance of M390 at the same toughness level. i want back Aus-8, with a good HT. If all the S30V/VG10 Spydies were redone tomorrow with Aus-...

Re: Spyderco Bushcraft Vs. Sustain
What do you want to use it for? If you want a woodcarving tool the only answer should be the Bushcraft, but the low saber grind is a suboptimal choice If you want a slicer the Proficient should be good, it has the best geometry but the steel isn't "hard use", especially if you lower the be...

Re: Different edge angles?
Zero grind on all high carbide steel knives and they have the primary grind in the 2.5/5 dps.
If you do that they continue to tear things even when they have the edge like a ball bearing

Re: Is this edge wear normal?
Some people advocate that using abrasives softer than VC you can't have a good edge on high Vanadium steels. This isn't true. I thought the same thing before trying it. I sharpen all my knives on Alox sandpaper or on Alox/SiC stones and i can attain a better edge than that with diamond plates; there...
