Stumbled across MagnaCut recently on Send Cut Send -

Hello All,
I recently picked up the Manix 2 salt black G10 (model C101GMCBKP2), and I put a Lynch deep carry pocket clip on it. The Factory Pan Head screws catch on my jeans. I would like to try to find some flat head torx screws to replace the factory...

I’d love one. We know golden can make para 3 salt, para 3 lw serrated, and magnacut serrated.

This one in the cards? Satin would be great but a black blade yellow body would be amazing.

My first Spyderco was the m4 Tenacious. I gave it a lemon acid wash. I loved the steel but the action and brown g10 wasn’t really my thing, so I bought the distributor exclusive carbon fiber/g10 and swapped the m4 into it! Loving it!

Do you all think we will see a wave of new knives made with quality budget alloys like AUS10 and Sandvik 14C28N as 2026 travels along?

I want to see more Linerless FRN and G10 folders with those alloys and with TriAd locks, CrossBar locks, and Button or...

With the New Year almost here, I'll offer a quick review of the Knife Rights' accomplishments that your generous support has enabled this year. And, just a reminder that if you haven't done so already, we could really use your TAX-DEDUCTIBLE donation to...

Same as the general discussion thread, but for non spyderco knives.

Left to right:

1. Kiwi #21
2. Recon Tanto OD green stripped and polished
3. 3V SRK reprofiled to convex saber grind
4. Winkler Belt Knife green micarta
5. Leatherman Half Micra I...

I saw an ad for a folding knife with what looked like a high hollow ground drop point blade and a thumb stud. Has anyone heard of this brand? It used the names James in it.

I have had a multiple Spydercos for years and I recently bought one of their budget line, a Persistence, which I really like. I lost a clip screw changing around the clip orientation and I'm trying to replace it. I've tried to contact the company and the...

Is there a knife retailer in existence thst has the ability to literally sell us any knife or cutlery item made by any knife company in the world or is that not possible?

Notice I did not say that keeps in stock knives from every knife manufacturer. That...

Question for Socom Elite Auto owners: how do the 3M traction tape inlays feel? More like rubber or more like sandpaper? Are they rough on other materials, and can they wear out jeans pockets over time? Thanks!

Delete this plz.

Just wondering.
Since alloys like LC200N, H1, H2 are now on the market for some years, how come we are not seeing a wave of knives made from them increasing? I do see MagnaCut from many companies but only a few lc200n and other than Spyderco, not many H1...

First off, I'd like to say thanks to the Glesser's and the rest of the Crew at Spyderco for having another great Factory Seconds Sale.

While waiting in line I was able to talk to a couple of other folks that had never been to a Sale. They weren't...

OLFA has been making replacable blade knives for years. Their shears are great, too. Now they have entered the Bush Craft Knife market.

Sal, here is more proof that your Byrd line is good.
Some years ago I gave two friends each a Byrd Cara Cara 2.

Both told me the blades are still sharp without any new honing. The factory edge has stood well after constant use.

Thank you

I thought this was kinda strange. I noticed that a reply I had written wasn't in the thread after posting it. I assumed that something happened to the post in transit and that I would need to rewrite it, but then later noticed that the user (GarageBoy)...

Do any of you remember those fixed blade Japanese fishing knives?

They were generally fixed bladed and had a single edged stainless steel blade with a fish scaler pattern on the back or top edge, where later hollow handled survival knives had a saw back,...

Not so long ago, I became seriously interested in knives. I started reading thematic forums. I got acquainted and even knives!
It seems to me that it would be funny if the main community of spiderko would say hi - a small chat in which I am a member and...

Samsung Android OS Update. After the update be sure to update all of your apps.

Pointy simple lil things!

I bought a fixed blade Gladius-L a while back and thought that I would mention it.

It is very amazing how they do this.
Their use of stainless steel is also superb but that is not in this video which focuses on traditional carbon steel blades:

Okay everyone, Larrin, sal, and all of you great folks, when you can, let's see how fantasy and fictional materials can be made with real world materials and processes.
Remember, MagnaCut and H1 were once fantasy until made real.

Let's start with the...

And the red and black packing material is a great classy touch! Can't wait to start putting it to use. Oh and my dressed up Mantra in pocket to open it up.

The truth is, this has been a difficult fundraising year. I hate to beg, but we could really, really use your help. Like many non-profits, we are down thousands of dollars as folks tighten their belts, which I understand. And, for those who have donated,...

The Dragonfly remains my favorite, most used, and most carried model. Even when not featured in my carry pics, it's often there as as a backup. Heck, two now live permanently in the pockets of favorite jackets. I was happy to score a SPY27 version but...

I haven't seen one of these in a bit, but they haven't gone away.

I want to start by saying this: I am personally 100 percent satisfied and content with the Spyderco Endura as it is. So much so, infact, that I am now blessed with another one: plain edged Endura 4.

I do prefer the old style handle but I am fine with...

What are some of the strangest and most unique modifications of Spyderco knives you have seen or done?
Has anyone seen Jazz, the forum member? He loved mods I recall.

I saw a Waved Caly and a modified Atlantic Salt made into a Wharnie.
