NEED MINOR HELP? As in years past, if anybody needs help with formatting the resolution, aspect ratio and DPI to meet the requirements, I'm happy to help. I'll even help with minor things, such as if you took a picture that's awesome and only noticed later that there's a tiny piece of garbage or so...

I've thought about a larger one?

Please call it the (Giant) Wētā if you do.

Few more details from DLT Tradings Instagram account - https://i.imgur.com/qaQh52u.jpg July 17th - 11 am Central - 2 per household limit Too bad they're not telling production run quantities anymore. Spyderco, for the most part, stopped listing sprint run sizes a few years back. I don't get it. It'...

I like the Junior and always thought it would be a good Super Blue (solid, not laminated) sprint run candidate.

If someone threatened me with a knife, I'd bore them to death by explaining the ins and outs of edge geometry, how the steel they chose isn't the best choice for stabbing humans (along with an in-depth explanation on how carbides, chemistry, and heat treat affect those properties), and then use the ...

Here's one from 1998

Nice find! It looks like that fits the description of commercial #2: camping.

I was looking at some archived spyderco.com pages on the Internet Archive wayback machine and ran across a page from 1999, where a page talks about three 30-second television spots that Spyderco did. Does anybody know of a way to see them? I couldn't find anything online. https://live.staticflickr.c...

I didn't think I'd like square handles. Then I got a Chokwe. :p Overall, I prefer generically rounded and contoured. And by "generic", I mean ones that aren't overly sculpted to lock in only one particular hand size and grip. As you mention, it can be overdone to the point where a handle doesn't acc...

A few that I passed on when they were cheap:

Gen 1 R
Tuff
Barong
More Q variants (especially the Jolly Roger and multi-color demo set)
Kopa with Abalone and black pearl

For the most part I have so many knives that in some ways the thrill is gone. If it is meant to be then it will find it's way into the hoard. That's where I am. There are a lot of new designs that I like, but I'm finding it harder and harder to get me excited enough to spend the money, as I have so...

He's a witch, he's a witch. See if he floats.

Or we could build a bridge out of him.

Every time this get bumped, I get excited that maybe there's news on a Jester.

Thanks for sharing Sharp Guy!

I just wanted to bump this because it's still annoying. After I initiate a search, I have to wait 30 seconds before I can navigate to subsequent pages of results. It will then let me click through a few pages, then makes me wait 30 seconds to look more. This is really annoying, especially when I'm t...

As of 10 minutes ago, 695 of 1200 sold already! Where did you get the 1200 piece run info? I didn't see any mention of the size of the production run on their website, Facebook page, or Instagram. I asked them over the ‘phone when paying for my pre-order. Great, thanks for sharing the info! :)

If somebody that gets one wouldn't mind sharing the second half of the letter that comes with it, I'd appreciate it. All the pictures on eBay show it folded over, ending right when it starts to talk about the steel used, so I'm curious what the Spyderco literature has to say about Super Gold.

Where is the number 600 coming from for the production run size? The first post I see mentioning 600 pieces says he saw it "somewhere on the internet," and then I keep seeing that number repeated. Has this been verified by a reliable source?

It would not be a Damasteel blade if it’s to be a true 3.5 inch version of the original. The original is VG-10-based Damascus. Do you know if it was truly layered or the kind of wrap around Damascus that Spyderco uses now?? I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "truly layered" vs. "wrap around," bu...

I was out of cell service for 9 minutes and missed out? That is just stupid!

If anybody can help a brother out it would be appreciated.

The inevitable blacked out Jade Shaman is the one you're really going to want anyway.
