Re: What knife steel and handle are best for cold weather high altitude hiking?
Sorry. The 1991 worker with Pro-venator inserts was used on everest iirc. The knife was to commemorate a Swedish climbing team reaching the top of Mt. Everest. It features a stainless steel handle with Pro-Venator (Pro-Grip) inserts. Stainless won't be affected by very low temperature but it will gi...

Re: Spyderco knockoffs or just a possible scam?
The bi-fold was deemed illegal due to US weapon laws considering the bi fold an automatic knife. They stopped producing the knife.

Re: Travelling with Knife in Mexico
Don't go camping in Mexico. If they see someone unknown looking like a gringo they will assume you are a DEA agent or informer. If you are lucky they will only skin you alive before they shoot you. Don't think the states close to the USA are safer then the one's in the South. If you want to enjoy ca...

Re: Defensive Fixed Blade Suggestions
Swick is also a good option. The fact that you have to wiggle your finger in the hole does makes it slower. But also provides very positive purchase on the blade. You can also use your hands with a swick to open doors, use an o.c. spray or even shoot a gun. Emerson made the la griffe with Perrin. Or...

Re: Defensive Fixed Blade Suggestions
The Ronin 2. I carry a clinch pick in pikal front center horizontal on a daily base. Can reach it with both hands. other options are Fred Perrin's designs. Or Bastinelli . Have you thought about a push dagger? Very instinctive, if legal.

Re: Annual Spyderco Product Guide (Catalog)
No, i strongly dislike digital catalogs. I love the smell and feel of the Spyderco catalogs. The fact that the knives are 1/1 so you can have a feeling of their dimension.
I am saddened they discontinued the catalogs. Saying that most customers prefer it is b.s. imho.

Re: Question for Sal, Crew, or Forumites
I think Quality control only works after all steps have been taken so i think a cc can fail final inspection. Even beeing a second i can't really anything wrong with it. Maybe they dropped it or hit it in the kitchen making a dent? If you don't mind, didn't overpay and it works why bother? The only ...

Re: Reveal 14 Live!
I like the pink para 3. Hopefully i can buy one for my wife's collection of pink Spyderco knives.
Hopefully i can also buy the military 2 this year. Funds are tight so plain S30V and black G10 works for me. Didn't dare to check the prices.

Re: Knife trends you just don't understand?
I have no use in steel that forces me to send my knife back for factory resharpening, or forces me to buy an expensive sharpening system and regrind the angle to increase the performance say 100%. I want something i can sharpen on my sharpmaker. It's like buying an expensive motorcycle that goes 200...

Re: Knives: Don't Make a Fatal Mistake
Or people live in the rest of the world where carrying a simple pocket knife is looked upon as a weapon by the Governement. I live in Europe and basically nothing can be carried in self defense. And if you defend yourself, you can only do it a) when you can't escape or call the police b) the use of ...
