Spyderco Forums

Members: Looking for ideas for my next Spyderco. I have a small knife box with six slots and I already have the following: - Tenacious M4 - Endura 4 (combo saber) VG-10 - Delica 4 (plain saber) VG-10 - Para 3 (digital camo scales with DLC blade) S45VN - Paramilitary 2 (digital camo scales with sati...

I’m still not a big cheap plastic fan personally. Steel bolsters, bone, micarta and pins options would look excellent on this knife imo I am not a cheap plastic fan either ... but supertough and still light hightech fibreglass compound material like FRN on the other hand is practically speaking pro...

Very nice review! :clinking-mugs And glad you found out what linerless FRN really is: In relation to its weight imo the best, most sophisticated and actually very sturdy handle material (and I DO use my linerless FRN knives hard). Add the grippy texture but smooth logo the clip lands on and on many ...

I own a ton of Spydercos and this $220 knife might be the highest quality knife out all of them except for the Drunken (minus the clip). Fit and finish is phenomenal. The smoothing of the blade spine and spydie hole is better than on any knife I’ve ever seen. This knife reminds me of an updated hig...

Little hike with one of my top favorites and true cutting monsters...

For a second I thought the Native Salt was actually featured in that magazine...

As said, I really hope it´ll turn up again, Jim. Still a tip for the future: I often detach the pocket clips of my Spydies and then bend them "down" a bit so the tension gets higher when reattached again and the knife is more secure in pocket. I do this since I lost a Stretch 1 (still no i...

If the market options with the "cross bar" lock post patent expiration are representative, I'd say the answer is a big yes. Much better versions of that lock came out after the patent expired. -- It seems the market isn't flooded with comp locks like it became post patent with "cross...

Yeah, although i agree with Wartstein that there are still some special use cases where pe might be preferred for extreme corrosion resistance/toughness, I think your assessment pretty much nails it. I think I’m probably an extreme outlier when it comes to what I demand of my rust proof knives and ...

Sorry to hear that, even more so since it was a special knife for for you.

But don´t give up hope yet, as others have said: It might still turn up again - did you check all the gaps of couch, car seats...?

Best of luck in any case!

What we really need is a siren with yellow or green G10 and Magnacut..! ... Almost perfect, but make it FRN instead of G10... ;) (and add an SE option!) FRN for a Siren XL Slim model, and G10 for new and improved magnacut Siren. I’m not a big fan of serrations, personally, but if Spyderco made both...

I am getting a dozen or two false updates every day from some threads to which I have contributed. Malware has probably infected the forum or the forum host servers. Good luck, Spyderco. These notifications- at least in my case - are not actually "false" but just too late. After the forum...

I like combo edges. I find them very useful and the best of both worlds, in many ways. Yep, for me my "comboedge journey" has been funny: - Rather new to folders I thought comboedges just had to be "best of both worlds" without actually knowing much and just little experience. -...

Same here.
Not "hundreds" a day though in my case, more like ten or so.
Does not bother me much though as long as it does not go on forever like that (which it technically can't anyway)

Not to mention CE salts. I know I’ll sound like a broken record in this regard, but the total absence of CE in the salt production lineup is both surprising and a little disappointing. Of the Golden salts I think a Manix CE would be my preference, but ideally I’d also like to see backlock in the 3....

I would put it more as “too much money for any knife”. $265?!? Too much. Well, I got mine for clearly less money back when the Kapara was pretty new on the market - but going by todays general prices I think it is worth even the current price, when I consider the perfect execution and really high e...

OCD4EDC.com makes compression tab extenders for various models. He calls them CMEs (compression made easy). With the tab extender, even a lefty should have no problem manipulating the compression lock. I started a thread about this device once - I think in my first post I linked a vid where one can...

For me, i think it is. Well, maybe receiving the first Siren and Waterway topped this but nothing else! I haven’t felt this kind of excitement over a new knife in YEARS! https://i.imgur.com/UAVn3Tt.jpg I’ll offer some very brief initial observations on both knives. Catcherman: I was a Spyderco fan ...

My focus here is less on "Salt", but specifically on "Manix LW" when it comes to SE. I was really hoping that the Manix 2 LW Salt would finally give us a fully serrated ffg Manix (as far as I know there was only one fully serrated version so far, but in hollow grind and G10). I n...
