Re: Holy Crap re Siren

Twelchlen, the answer is yes. I wasn't whining; just amazed at the speed at which this knife is being gobbled up. Pretty common thing with Spyderco Knives. The price they pay for excellence. :D

Re: 2020 Spyderco Product Guide

Congratulations once again Team Spyderco! The new Product Guide is quite the publication. If there was a product guide/catalog annual award Spyderco would have yet another trophy under their belt. I realize the Guide is a collective offering of what Spyderco is producing, however; the design, compos...

Re: Serration Disappointment

While the OP is certainly entitled to his opinion I feel compelled to say that from my experience(s) I've learned to do my research before buying a tool. Once purchased, if the tool does not function as I deem appropriate I look at it, still in hand; and realize I'm attached to it...…...More often t...

Re: Byrd Hawkbill

Received my Hawkbill Byrd today and just as expected, extremely pleased! Looked it over, opened and closed it several times, wiped it down, clipped it on and assumed the ready to cut something posture. Like others have said, whole lotta knife for an extremely reasonable cost. No buyer's remorse here...

Re: Byrd Hawkbill

Just gotta say that as a result of all the positive hype (which I know to be true) I have one inbound at this time with an ETA of March 16. It is being escorted by a Native FRN Maxamet, and a Salt 2 FRN Wharncliffe. I plan on unboxing the Byrd first, that's how much I am looking forward to getting t...

SFO Shout Out To Kyle

What happens to the remaining unsold knives (if any) on the shelves of the Spyderco Factory Outlet Store once the demand for them ceases (if this is possible)? If this is proprietary info please fuhgeddaboudit. :D

Re: Spyderco’s For Law Enforcement?

Thank you for what you do Zatx! I was a Deputy Sheriff in Kern County, California for a while. My knife preference was the Spyderco Delica, combination edge. An extremely versatile tool with the capability to handle a myriad of situations (which it did). I have also been a Parole Officer here in No...

Re: Ignore feature?

The "Ignore Feature" (aka Add Foe) has eliminated the referenced Bovine Scat and it's originator from my forum viewing. My Dad once told me that no individual is totally useless, if nothing else they can be used as a bad example. :D

Re: Bombshell Flash Batch

I'm definitely in for at least one. Agree with SpyderNut, the Bombshell will be a nice mate to the Chubby. I really like 20CV blade steel, and the "no-nonsense" finish looks great with the OD scales. With any kind of luck this knife will spark demand for a larger version. I plan on admirin...
