Spyderco Forums

I just bought a Spyderco D'Allera knife online, requested it to be shipped to Canada from the US. Canada Customs calls me and says it's been seized because they have determined it to be a prohibited weapon. They said that because they can open it with centrifical force by flicking it in a circular ...

Thanks to all that replied. I have bought a D'Alara and should get it in the mail next week. Sounds like a great knife, I can't wait. Cheers!! :)

:) Thanks to all. :) That's a beautiful knife, 4 s ter, very cool. I love the engraving work. :spyder:

I feel as though with tip up the knife comes straight out of the pocket and into my hand more naturally than tip down. Also, on most knives I've seen the pivot end of the knife when folded is slightly heavier than the the butt end and would logically want to help itself stay inside your pocket ...

I'm interested in getting my now adult sons a knife for a gift and would like to, but not have to, have them engraved. Both sons have had good success with Swiss Army knives, but I want something with more jam. This knife is going to be an heirloom so it has to last 'forever'. The knife I've chosen ...
