Spyderco Forums

Like SharpGuy and Bloke, I have the Hapstone (V7) for re-profiling and a sharpmaker for maintenance. I've only used them once for a blade over 5" so I can't speak for anything longer, but it's a great combination for my needs. No experience with the kme, but I do have a cheap clamp style sharpener f...

JD, I'd really love to try a MuleTeam in SE.

Now I feel silly. But I think Larry is on to something. I usually feel silly as a rule of thumb, but there's no reason too :p I have paid a good chunk for a discontinued 4V MuleTeam at around 2 1/2 times what they cost new and a couple flipper prices for some folders. I "had" to have them though :D...

MuleTeam knives can only be purchased from Spyderco direct, they don't go to dealers! They've not even been released yet!

Maybe I'm missing something

Wow! I mean Yikes!

oh we're not talking about Sir-mix alot?

One of my favorite comfort foods. "cathead biscuit", lil dab of honey and fried chicken or sausage gravy and fried bologna with a lot of black pepper..

Happy birthday ABX!

You can't get a good feel for how a knife steel behaves without using it enough to need to sharpen it multiple times. You can't get a really good feel for how a knife steel behaves without experimenting with edge angles. You can't get an extremely good feel for how a knife steel behaves without doi...

Prayers Doc! My brother-in-law survived a widow maker two years ago as he stopped for a red light. With foot on the brake he slumped over and my sister had the presence of mind to put the car in park. Until that point he had no previous health issues and was rarely sick, worked as a respiratory ther...

I really like the "Shaman/Cables" shot Rick!

If the Superhawk had a little more curve/hook to it and SE it would be incredible. As it is (was) it really needed more hook, it was almost like a wharncliffe with a negative blade angle. Interesting timing on this topic, I've been playing around with my Spyderhawk a lot lately and to my surprise (...

I'd be in! https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=86113&p=1404064&hilit=...a+FFG+hawkbill#p1404064 Sorry Connor, I didn't catch this thread but I'd love to have M4 or K390 SE if they could do it. Would you still prefer plain edge even if the edge retention was higher with the super steels? ...

The Superhawk was a terrific knife and had the curve been deeper, I would prefer it to my Spyderhawk. That being said, many of the reverse-s knives have been done in FFG so I don't think the limiting factor is the manufacturing. Sales are unfortunately what tend to drive obscure and unconventional ...

This thread needs inspiration

That would be very nice! Did they ever make it with serrations? I'm not sure I'd want one in PE but I'd be happy for those who would

Unless I'm mistaken Spyderco doesn't have anything like this, maybe the P'Kal but I wouldn't call that a hawkbill. I think they're all hollow grind! I know I've voiced my desire for a FFG Spyderhawk in SE LC200N Sprint or even VG10 or S30V and I'd instantly purchase one or more...Shoot, FFG SE Spyde...

And I use my finger to open envelopes.

Fingers have a high carbon content and are rustproof! Edge holding ability is not great tho Lol

They make great picks too! A little taboo for public, but what do I know.

I think I've said this before, but the scales on your PD1 mule are so beautiful! I've got the blank PD1 mule, just waiting to find scales I love that much.

Thank you Julia! Are you referring to the red pearl Kirinite?

I've only had experience with Kirinite GITD and this Raffir uranium:



It only lasts for 10 minutes or so...Kirinite about the same. I'm going to have to try Spyderco's.

I can confirm this statement.

I keep mine beside my bed for this reason.

If the real "reason" is because there may be monsters under the bed, I totally understand

It is, but they deny they are there

Great, monsters with an existential crisis
