Spyderco Forums

I've been holding out on a Manix waiting for a sprint/exclusive that would fit in with my collection. On the GP knives website you can do an email notification for the M390 versions. Thats what I'm doing as of now.

Can anyone confirm, was it ever in stock on the spyderco website? Maybe its still en route.

aaannnnddd its already out of stock, man I hope they are cranking out a bunch of these I would hate to have missed it before I knew it was out.

I wish they would do a lefty military in some special steel or sprint.

I can use my compression lock knives left handed but there are a few like the military that just won't work unless you get a dedicated left hand model.

Spyderco does do a pretty good job overall think of us lefties though.

looks like bentobox shop has some stretch 1's if people want them before they're gone. I'm personally holding out with hope for a new steel or sprint this year or next.

Para 3 in CTS-CHP and Orange FRN and black blade from cutlery shoppe. This is my lounging around the house knife and with the polar vortex MN has seen the coldest temps in 15 years or so. Lots of time in the house and lots of sweatpants carry with the little guy. Still loving it

I noticed throughout 2018 that knives on BHQ would come in and out of pre order then show no pre order then out of stock. Bow river has been yo-yoing like this all year. I think there is something goofy with their pre order stuff.

I have a knife on me 100% of the time unless I am on an airplane. It is an EDC and backup self defense tool. If I am not carrying a gun I will usually pack my waved Matriarch paired with a small leatherman squirt. Normally I carry a big enough blade that I keep very sharp. It is my EDC or last ditch...

Patrol in my department is issued the Spyderco assist in all black. I know the marine unit uses the original jumpmaster as well. Many officers I’ve talked to over the years carry a Delica. I wish we were issued nice knives. I have heard some depts specifically ban carrying a knife or discourage it ...

Thanks for all the info, I'm going to experiment with some stropping paste on the rough side and keep the smooth side clean. mostly for between sharpening touch ups and experimenting with finishing.

are these only at BHQ? Doesn't really matter to me as I like BHQ but if they are widely distributed I don't have to watch them like a hawk if they sell out in 30 seconds.

The one in the video looks like the lum tanto blade shape, if they keep that I would 100% be buying one

its kind of a MEH for me. Interesting design but doesn't speak to me personally

watch the shot show video from knife center, Eric talks about it and the new release plan. Should be delivered this quarter. They didn't show the sheath yet anywhere that I have seen.

Eric said in the bladehq and knife center videos that they are shipping this week.

I was skeptical when the first announced it and a little disappointed when the 2019 catalog came out in Dec and nothing really new was in it. Now that the first reveal dropped I'm liking it. I think having steady product drops through the year will keep the excitement and discussion up.

love the look of it, I'm normally not a tanto guy but that looks slick. I hope it has the japanese style tanto blade shape like the lum tanto.

I don't typically buy duplicates of knives but the wharncliff endura and Tanto PM 2 are different enough that I'm really interested. Can't wait to see what steels/scale options they come in.

I've handled the Damascus Endura that a friend owns, it is beautiful. I don't think he heavy uses it by any means but it had no noticeable issues. I thought about it when I purchased my delica but it was more $$ than I wanted to spend on that particular knife.

I just got a paddle style strop for my b-day. Rough on one side, smoother on the other. There is no abrasive included or on the leather. My current sharpening is done with the sharp maker standard stones +ultra fine stones following the standard recommended guidelines in the manual and video. I had ...
