Dear all, quick question I can`t find answer to, does UKPK have the same spinning pivot CQI solution\prevention as Urban has? I am talking about this steel inlay inside the scales preventing main pivot from spinning. I am eyeing UKPK for quite some time, I have two urbans (K390, AEB-L) and both have...

Haha, I know that thread actually and I am a big supporter of your enthusiastic promotion of that idea! As you say, same knife, same blade thinness just longer... That would really be something I would instantly buy

So, for the sake of conversation, on the frn version, whaddayouwant? Colors, Steels or specific combinations? sal - Bright handle, rustproof "outdoor" version (and also marketed as that: A super slim and small, very slicey, but "bombproof - ly" built highly efficient cutting too...

Just felt like posting a pic of this great model - an old one, actually taken when I had my Chap for only a short time. Love this knife and would encourage everyone to try one. It´s something special imo. https://i.postimg.cc/W40cMK8v/Chap-wood.jpg Wow, love to see photo of Chap being used :clappin...

I hope Chap will get better in terms of sales - one of the best small designs from Spyderco, kinda blend of Kopa and Walker C22 - extremely good slicer in small elegant body.

Just to be sure, I need to purchase few pieces in case it would get discontinued, I love my FRN model.

I think 8Cr13Mov is, as mentioned, quite underrated. My first Spyderco was Tenacious, bought two months after it`s release. I remember i was not happy with edge holding but after years, out of nostalgia I purchased LW Tan version and I have to say something either had to change in the HT protocol or...

Uuuuh Salsa return would be awesome, loved colours, size, ergos… I am in

Hi Bernhard, Welcome to the forum, I am from your neighboring country but I, quite regularly, travel to Vienna. I can recommend Lorenzi shop Siebensterngasse 41, 1070 Wien - I was able to purchase Manbug in K390 there on sale of 75 eur last year. If you would have possibility to travel to Brno City ...

Welcome to the forum, enjoy your time here :) it is quite a special place

I am living in a country, where there is no limit on carry and I still do enjoy small knives as well as bigger knives. Older I get (not that I am that old) more I appreciate smaller pocket knives (Urban, Squeak, Manbug). Ideally I carry some kind of duo though - Endura or Delica and Manbug; Manix 2 ...

Hi PMan, not sure if you are much familiar with Sal - he is the founder and owner of the company. He is quite active in Spyderco Forums and he personally reacted with suggestion to contact customer service. I would recommend to do so, you will be treated well and they will do what they can to repair...

Hi Zhyla, I think that you can see that Eric is working with the Chinese makers to learn to work with other steels. But using US steels does raise the price. The downside is sometimes sales? We have to see how it does in the Real World Market. That takes time. eg; the Polestar and Alcyone are very ...

Soooo I was thinking, what kind of jam are you guys putting in PBJ sandwich? Is there some kind of a rule what type has to go in? Grape, Orange Marmalade, Blueberry, or Raspberry for me. Call me weird, it is what it is. As long as it's not Petroleum, I think any jelly or jam people favor is accepta...

Hi Bruce, Fair question. I designed the Gauntlet in about 2000. We made some prototypes. But it still took another decade and a half to bring it to market. We can only do some much? Limited funds, labor limitations, testing time, tooling time, prototyping, etc. We have many ideas and designs that a...

Just reading through all points here I think it would be quite a dream to have crossover between Gauntlet and Sharpmaker, just imagine same stones as on Gauntlet just in various grits as on SM, three to four different angles to match modern steels (most people use 30 inclusive as base degree). All t...

Hey, All: The biggest market for our SLIPITs is Europe. Europeans also have a clear preference for PlainEdge blades and rarely buy knives with serrated edges. It's basically a matter of market preferences. Stay safe, Mike Hi Mike, thank you very much for your reply. This makes sense, even though I ...

Exactly what others have stated already: Find some good video on this topic. Cedric and Ada - https://youtu.be/3M5ubJ8h2cQ 1. Mark your edge with sharpie or any other permanent marker and have some kind of loupe at hand (I use Victorinox with Loupe sufficiently) 2. protect rest of the blade with som...

Hi Spydie folks, quick question I can`t find answer to. Do we know why we don`t have standard (non Salt) Slipits with serrated edges anymore? For example, I can imagine SE on Squeak, Urban and regular line of UKPK. I have a feeling that some will point out that I should stay in imaginary phase for t...
