Let me explain the problem. As a big fan of BG-42 I ordered a CF Military w/ BG-42 (the newest sprint run) by Feuerzeugszentrale in Munich. The lady there asked their provider, but the answer was 'No chance, alles ausverkauft (all sold)'. Firstly, I was disappointed. Then I realized that lady said ...

ABCruz, First off, welcome to the forums! As for submittal, it's extremely important to note that Spyderco receives upwards of 100 submittals every year. That's in addition to ideas that come up in house. Being a company of less than 50 people, everyone here has multiple responsibilities. So, to be ...

Kristi, can you verify the 0.15%C from the Spyderco Steel chart? Roman Landes has wondered if this is true, since the steel allegdly reaches such high RC hardness :confused: Discussion (in German) here, if anyone cares: http://www.messerforum.net/showthread.php?t=34482 Thanks, Keno Keno, That is co...

Regards, Keno

Absolutely Keno. I've posted that info in several forums now, so please feel free.

Take care!

Hi Sal, I've got a couple of questions about H1: - What Rc hardness is Spyderco using? - Did you do any tests with X15TN before choosing H1? If yes, how does it compare? Regards, Keno Keno, Sal is out of the office for Blade... we did test X-15TN, H1 met our standards better so we chose it. Here is...

Please Taz...say it's a typo. Help me Tazkristi...you're my only hope... *Bzzzzzt* Help me Tazkristi...your my only hope...*Bzzzzzt* Help me Tazkristi... Hopefully this will clear the disturbance in the force... it is ambidextrous tip-up. :D It's just a misprint. Step away from the pitchforks and p...

No, we will receive them in two shipments (600 / 600), so that is how we will ship them out.

Kristi

Within the next 2-3 weeks, you'll start seeing them. :)

[quote="Pete1977"] :) they couldn't have picked a better company for the job I don't think. again, off the subject a tiny bit, but the USCG is issued a folding myerchin knife IIRC. I'd think one of the salt series would be a better choice. it is definately less expensive. lighter, has a cl...

Peter,
We're actually in touch with them. I believe they've been copied on all of the progress by my contact in Australia. It was the Center for Coastal Studies that actually referred the folks in Australia to us.

Small world. :)

A couple of notes, the gentleman that I am in contact with has been kind enough to include me on all of his email reports regarding entanglements over the past 4 weeks. In each case, it has been a fishing boat that has spotted the whale. Each of the three success stories were in part possible becaus...

Serrated by hand? That is amazing. How long is that thing, 6-7 inches? And 440c to boot. Just goes to show what an amazing company can do when given a unique proposition. Did they go to any other companies, or was it :spyder: all the way? The blade is actually 340mm long, nearly 13.5". And yes...

Man, those are some magic words: "Corrosion resistance is similar to VG-10" and "abrasion resistance is comparable to CPM-S30v". Oh, wait, here's my favorite part, "Sharpening is relatively simple with the Sharpmaker system" YES! :D Thanks for this little jem, Kristi! ...

Edited posts as needed...I'm hoping this thread will go somewhere good. Please keep it civil... and it will stay open...

This is a heated discussion, but there is no need to add fuel to the fire here.

Thanks!

Kristi

[quote="smcfalls13"]Any updates??? ]

Geeeeez, you are inpatient. :rolleyes:

You know I'll share when I can. :p

HoB wrote:Very cool, Taz, but even if steel was no concern....lemme guess....H-1 maybe... :) .

No, since it was made here, H1 wasn't an option. Sal chose 440C.

Good guess though, that was our initial reaction too! :D
