Spyderco Forums

Man I love “Vivi’s Observations” threads!! You really offer this forum a lot of knowledge on Spyderco knives- keep up the good work!

Should you do the mod, I´d be really interested in your opinion on it if you like to share it. Move that lock bar spring and it will be like a new knife. Hey Wartstein- I did this mod with my FRN Chaparral and I agree with MichaelScott, it really made it like a whole new knife for me that I thoroug...

Anyone from the Fargo area planning on going and want to pick up some goodies for me??

That's a looker

Thanks, I really like that knife! I would love to see Spyderco use those materials on a Chaparral and make a “modern” knife to go with my GEC

Wish I could go but won’t be able to.. I’d love to pick up a few models, especially when I see all the prices that they go for :/

I would love it if they made a Chap along the lines of my GEC 77 Barlow.. micarta with a bolster and everything with a nice subtle radius.

I would prefer a linen micarta over a canvas micarta for the Chap- green, natural, or maroon would all be nice colors. Wood would look nice on this knife too, and I’m kind of surprised they haven’t used pakkawood yet.. I think either wood or linen micarta handles may also look nice with a titanium b...

taking a leap on this one, Manix backlock!!!

Ooo I like this one! I missed out on the Manix Backlock when it was out.. I would also say Mantra 2, and Chap

I can’t wait for this one to come out! I’m very excited to try this design and the fact that it’s in LC200N will be killer!

I would love a Manix 2 LW, Chap LW, Para 3 LW, Ladybug FRN, and a Dragonfly 2 FRN in LC200N! I wouldn’t be opposed to any other models as well but those are on the top of my wish list.

As I was one of those (or even the only one?) who said he does so (or better just CAN do so, for I iactually never really use this method. It's definitely not practical by any means) let me repeat: Of course in a reverse grip!! I’m not doubting you, I just want to see it!! Can you put up a video of...

I still want to see how people are flicking their back locks with their pinkies... ;) As I was one of those (or even the only one?) who said he does so (or better just CAN do so, for I iactually never really use this method.

They don't. They use the thumb like any sensible adult

I’m with you on this one

Just remember to be smart about it. Go slow, take a little off and put it back to together and try it. You can even set the lock bar & ball on the hole to see how it's changed as you're doing it. I'll be interested to hear how you do. What I don't want to hear is that you got carried away trying to...

Yep, after fixing my Sliverax I took my Mantra apart with the intent to open the detent hole a little on that one. Turns out the detent ball was just really flat. I flipped it around and it much improved. I ended up putting it back together without opening the hole. No need for it at this point. I’...

I bought one recently too because of the price and I LOVE the design on this one. The action on my example is mediocre, the detent is on the weak side and it is easy to fail when flipping. I can get it to fire hard if I load up the flipper tab though. Do other people have this issue? If I could make...

I would love a combo of the Vesuvius with the Centofante 4- WHARNCLIFFE COMPRESSION LOCK!!! Keep the 2mm blade stock and the hollow grind, change to screw construction and wire clip! It would be cool to have ivory FRN with an abalone inlay to keep it classy, and I would also like to see the above co...

I’m in for a Delica, Dragonfly, and Ladybug no matter if it’s solid or laminated. That being said I find that I do like the look of the lamination line and I don’t mind scratches..
