Spyderco Forums

Martial arts has been a lifelong hobby for me.

I competed in full contact karate tournaments as a kid, wrestled in high school, took a few boxing & muay thai classes in my 20's, trained with some pro MMA fighters for a bit in my 30's, and bounced...

Is it common practice for Byrd scales to be glued to the liners? :confused: I just took my Cara Cara 2 apart and both scales are glued. I can't see how this is beneficial in anyway. I bought it new at an authorized dealer.

This will be available on 4/20 at 11am central for $197.40.

I remembered there's a super Kydex thread..... :p

I saw the regular old PE para 3 was back in stock at SFO. It had been out of stock for a while & I assumed they let the stock of S30V ones run out and were just waiting on the new S45VN ones to complete production and be ready to ship.

Just like the title says, I'm looking for someone to reblade a Spyderco Delica Wharncliffe. I have a piece of 1.25 x .1 x 4 of Vinland Damasteel for the project. If you think you know of someone who would be able to do this, or are able to do this...

Good afternoon,

Does anyone know if there are any aftermarket modifications for the autonomy 2?

Do you believe that the backspacer from a para 2 will fit the autonomy 2

Remember when that engraver used some of the older Police models to make some commemorative knives (sold commercially) for the different Teams?

Again, I no longer have the original box for this Police folder, but I vaguely remember coming across it,...

One of the primary virtues of Spyderco is that they do so many different things well. This comes out in many arenas-- from working with an astounding number of collaborators and making products with a huge range of designs and then on to processing and...

A Texas bill, HB 4415 , has been introduced that would require “retail establishments” to display knives “in a locked transparent case accessible only with the assistance of an employee of the establishment.”

For purposes of this bill,”knife” is very...

can anyone point me in the right direction for good after market scales. I just installed the flytanium titanium scales on my M390 Manix 2 but I'm on the fence about them. I'd like to look into other options but I keep striking out on finding reputable...

I’m like a cat on a hot tin roof waiting for this release, any one have a clue as to how long I’ll have to wait?

Been fighting the urge to temporarily satisfy my urge with the yojimbo 2 all black instead, but I know I’ll only cough up for the Yojumbo...

I created an account just to post this seemingly fake Spyderco Street Beat on ebay:

The markings are off and the fact that this seller has more than ten available of a knife that's been discontinued and is extremely popular seems very suspicious. I...

Does anybody have a photo comparison of the size difference between a Boker DW1, Boker Keycom, and Spyderco Ladybug?

Personally I want an all black Ronin 2. I EDC a Yojimbo 2 and love it and just may buy all black Yojimbo 2 only because I currently reside in the Peoples Republic of California. I have resided in other free states where their citizens had the right to...

I would very much like to thank whoever is responsible for the translucent gray background for zoomed in images of knives in your online product guide. Such a simple thing, but the images pop as opposed to the previous shiny blade against a white...

For those who haven’t seen the video yet-
BHQ is dropping their signature M4/Jade handle variant in the new PM 2 Tanto model :D

OK, OK, I know this is far below Spyderco's ability and reputation. BUT, I find this $19 knife really useful .

As you prolly already know, a hacking knife is used for applications where the spine is hammered into material; typically to remove old putty...

This Brother has been here at Spyderville for a long, long time. The guy is a well spring of good information on knives and metallurgy. Haven't seen him here in a while and I do hope he chimes in today. I do want to wish Thombrogan a very Happy Birthday...

Made an impulse buy several months ago and picked up a Lil' Native Rex 45 Sprint. It's my first Lil' Native and I love it! I didn't think I would like it as much as I do.

I know I'm not alone in wanting this knife in LC200N, BUT I would love to see it...

The New Hampshire Second Amendment State Preemption Act, HB 307 , has been introduced by Representatives Norman Silber, Michael Yakubovich, Barbara Comtois and Linda Gould. This bill adds teeth to the state's existing preemption law for knives (as well as...

I saw this pair of Police models on ebay and they seem fake. The tiny boye dent, the clips not ending flat and the wrong font on the P in police, as well as shipping with a pouch.
Can't stand people taking advantage of others.

Long time Texas Knife Rights sponsor Representative Harold Dutton has introduced HB 956 that would remove from statute a number of places where Location-Restricted Knives are banned. The locations being removed includes restaurants and bars that derive...

Hello all, my name is Jeff. I’m new to the collector game so I was wondering if anyone could help me out in tracking down a spyderco citadel all black 83mm or 92mm. Also been looking for an embassy all black partial serrated. If anyone has any...

Hi,

I just purchased a Mantra 3 and was handling it today and noticed that when it is closed there is a fair bit of blade exposed along the compression lock. I actually cut a line along my thumb nail accidentally and am surprised I have not cut my...

Seasons Greetings All!

My small but much appreciated Spyderco collection has grown over the past few months while my sharpening skills are still lacking.

I was lucky enough to score a maxamet PM2 in the online factory sale. (Huge thank you to those...

Anybody own both the teal and newer Delica green FRN scales that can post a side by side photo? They look pretty close in a lot of photos I've found. Thanks!

Does anybody own a teal sprint run and the newer green FRN scales that can post a side by side photo? The grren loookes very teal/turquoise in many photos I've seen.

Thanks!

I bought a used Hawkbill and took it apart to clean it. I don't know if it was assembled this way from the factory. It looks like the liners have burrs around the clip holes on one side. It doesn't interfere with the one side but the other side pinches...

Here are a couple i would have. Along with many others especially every carbon fiber Seki city japan model lol

I'm sure this has been asked before, but how exactly does one get removed from this group? I am tired of waiting to have my replies approved, which often takes hours.

I appreciate any help.

I was very fortunate in the 2nds sale to get both the Genzow Hatchet Hawk and Warrior Hawk.

Being both are seconds I will not get a sheath for either. So was wondering if anyone has had any luck using other sheathes or could point me in a direction to...

I love carbon fiber and couldn't help myself lol. My fradon lock Delica 4 is display only and I do carry the carbon fiber tenacious but I do not use it. I hate when I buy one and I like it so much that I don't want to use it lol. Plus I have bad luck with...
