Re: Back lock Military achieved...Thanks Sal

Guys, these are very interesting observations I honestly never really noticed in detail. When just quickly looking at the blades of Endura and Stretch (I have them both in front of me while typing this), one could easily think that the Stretch has more belly than the Endura. Not entirely true, as y...

Re: Spyderco Stretch in action

I’d suggest watching Michael Christy and Shawn (Deadboxhero) videos. From them, one will get good educated guess about the difference between V-Toku2 and HAP-40.

Re: Back Lock Question Re: Disassembly

I see people saying put the blade in last and fumbling with 3 hands. How I learned it. 1. Assemble half 2. Put in the spring, the blade, and washers and pivot 3. Add other scales/liners and loosely tighten up screws except the one that goes through the lockbar. 4. Tape the blade for safety 5. Place...

Re: Which endura?

I forgot that Cara Cara 2 comes in Ti if you’re also considering Ti handles. The ergos is closest to Pac Salt, as it was ‘derived’ from older Enduras.

Re: Spyderco Stretch in action

Jon, Thank you for sharing! There was an Aogami Super Stretch in the past ... as you probably know already ;). We can dream about shirogami but according to Murray Carter, the HT is tricky to get it right (and why many does aogami but not shirogami), I’m not sure a factory setting that runs it in l...

Re: Spyderco Stretch in action

Very well said. And very thoughtful explanation. Thank you. I can see Endela is very likely the best all around knife, Thank YOU for actually reading that long winded post, written in my somewhat crude English... ;) I think you need to let go the notion about your English. It’s as well written as m...

Re: Spyderco Stretch in action

Wartstein, The Endela lacks the deep belly and the handle hook. And the fingochoil. It’s nice but definitely not Stretch 1. You are right, and as stated, for me personally the Stretch 1 will probably remain the best all-around-do-everything- EDC-knife anyway . But I am a somewhat experienced knife-...

Re: First free hand sharpening

Very well done on your first!

For further learning, I’d suggest going over to BF Maintenance subforum and check the stickies. Lots of good info there.

Re: Byrd Harrier (2019)

The original is beautiful! What’s the blade length, i.e. Are the two of same category?
H2 is FFG and is it linerless G10?
