Re: PRICING
I obviously like the knives they make. Otherwise I wouldn't own some of the most expensive ones they make, fixed(darn dao, respect) and folding(paysan). My logic with respect to pricing mostly comes down to handle materials used and complexity of designs. It's just really difficult to break down and...

PRICING
IS NOT in-line with inflation. Less the price of chicken or pork due to coronavirus issues Haven't bought a spyderco in months Sorry for rant and post, just had to let you know I understand there're many hands in the cookie jar. But, unless something is done I won't be buying For example $168 for si...

Re: BHQ Shaman Exclusive DLC/M4
Well it does match my native 5. Giving the shaman another chance to put a spell on me. Pretty expensive considering simple design and materials used.

Re: Rusted liners after fresh water clean.
Stainless doesn't mean rustless. You could use a good oil to control it.

Re: BHQ Shaman Exclusive DLC/M4
BHQ has their marketing and exclusive niche absolutely down. I just wish that they didn't charge sales tax to my state. I think they charge all states? I buy most my blades elsewhere just to save on tax. 8% on about $3000 I've spent this year=a really nice blade. I wasn't crazy about the red one an...

Re: Disappointed with M4 Mule Performance
Test another (decent)steel with similar(mule) geometry on the material you're using the m4 on. That would be the real test.

https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=85492&p=1384163&hilit=elmax#p1383529 There was another thread recently. Its not a bad steel but had acquired a bad reputation. To sum up the thread there are some other steels that are more easily available that perform just as well. I like...

What ever happened to Elmax
I thought it was a premium "super steel". Too many haters like jdspydo (John Davis, yt rope cut test guy)or whatever his name is crapped on it years ago, so now it's not popular enough to use anymore? Please say it ain't so. I've recently reacquired a large lionspy and gonna see what I rem...

Re: Cruwear Native Chief ????
Isn't 3v more corrosion resistant than cru and 4v? Think I'm actually leaning towards 3v as the go to all around semi-stainless steel thus far. Have recently purchased a few nice barkies in 3v. Would like to see more spydies in 3v. Probably wishful thinking though due to m390, 90v, xhp, and everyth...

Hmmm.. well, that's.. different.. Haha, I somehow love it and hate it all at once. Took the words right out my mouth. Think I have enough 20cv and para 2's. Otherwise I would probably pick one up. Think some NY jet fans would enjoy it...that is if they're allowed to carry that size where they live ...

Re: Black Friday cyber Monday DEALs?!?
I just got bit by a spyder again. BHQ bundle deals. Finally grabbed a province. Came with a mantra 2 almost free at 290.
Also magnitude was only 180. Guess they've been discounted for awhile just never payed it much attention. Looks preety nice to add to collection.

Are you guys serious about this? Is it that dangerous to go shopping where you live? YES IT IS! maybe you been living in a glass house?

Re: Discussion: What do you think is the best size for an EDC folder?
All depends. I usually try to stay away from Walmart. But, some items are kinda hard to find elsewhere at a decent price. Usually socks and underwear and such are typical items. So, longer folding blade is a must as crazy people like to target Walmart for some reason. I prefer not to be a victim if ...
