Para3LW is on the way!

Just checked and mine shipped already. However I did get billed twice but the email I got from CS at BladeHQ said that this might happen. Shouldn't be an issue getting it fixed.

Love my Yo2's. I would love a Yojumbo....3.75~4 inch blade would be perfect.

I'm lucky to live close to New Graham. Great shop.
I've also spent a lot of money at pretty much every online shop and only had a bad experience with knifecenter (they sent the wrong knife once, but wasn't too bad getting it corrected). Cutlery Shoppe, DLT, knivesshipfree, and knifeworks have all ...

I only recently started to appreciate the PM2. So many more variants I want, and hopefully will be able to add to my little collection.

My only Endura currently.

Yes! A Cara Cara sized hawkbill would definitely be a great addition to the line.

My running/hiking/deep-woods-multi-day-hike folder has been a Bugout. Previously an older Delica. I'm really looking forward to the LW Para 3. I'd love to see a PM2 or the Para3 LW with orange FRN scales.

Is it wrong that I like all three equally?
The newest to me is the Yo2. I only have two variants so far, but my Para 3 hasn't seen my pocket in a while, with the PM2 making an appearance occasionally. Then again, I'm sure the Yojimbos will get booted once the LW Para 3 comes out.

I'm really looking forward to this Yo2 version. The only other jade G10 I own is the PM2 with DLC M4. I keep waffling on getting the 20CV CF version but I think I'll hold out until this one is available.

This is a cool tip, thanks for sharing. Do you notice any warping of the scales at all when sticking them into a pot at rolling boil?

No, I have not noticed any warping.


I tried this today with a set of PM2 scales.
Amazing results! The pocket clip indentation was completely gone, and the area ...

Oh my, a Para 3 with a wire clip??? Yes please!
And the wharnie Endura will be mine too!

Wanting to share a few tips that I find useful for routine maintenance of my Spyderco knives. I kindly ask for you to post/share/discuss your methods as well. The intent is to help new Spyderco owners gain the confidence to perform similar tasks.

3. Refreshen G10 scales: Boiling water ...

My first 'real' folding knife was the FRN clip AUS-8 Delica that I purchased in the early 90's. Carried that knife for years and it served me well. Prior to the Delica I only carried a SAK. the Delica started my downward spiral.

My sister in law got me a plain edge wharnie salt for Christmas. It should arrive tomorrow.

I've noticed on my 2018, the blade seems not as tall as my other PM2's, like more steel was ground at the edge.

Mine was supposed to arrive today, but never came. Tonight USPS tracking said my package will arrive later than expected but still on its way.

I finally got around to grinding down the back lock to make it more flush with the handle. Also the distal edge where it contacts the tang of the blade was a bit sharp so it needed smoothed down as well. Here's what it looked like before:

My Spyderco experience has always been with Delicas and the various hawkbills.
I didn't buy into the PM2 hype until recently, despite owning a few over the years. Now I absolutely love it.
Also in the same vein I have been very surprised at how much I love the Para 3. I got my first one only a few ...

I got the same message. woo hoo!
