Re: Thoughts on locking models as Slipit versions

Sounds interesting, one thing I have to mention can I please get an Urban and/or UKPK with backlock? UKPK is a straight up slipit Caly 3, or you can take it reverse, Caly 3 is a backlock UKPK. Voila. Urban to me is more of like a slipit Cat. Although Delica 4 is an acceptable backlock alternative t...

Re: PM2 - Real or Fake?

I just ordered the same exact knife from Amazon, and got it a few days ago. Mine looks EXACTLY like yours. I watched some videos on Youtube, and the only thing I was worried about with mine was that the pocket clip's edges look a little rough and those weird divot things on the handle liners, right...

You know what actually I just came up with a perfect solution―let's propose Sal and Eric to make a Sage 6 in slip joint, done! ;)

Re: Thoughts on locking models as Slipit versions

Wow great job that's a very detailed list Deacon! I can't think of many more to add to it. The Clipi Tools and Byrd Tern maybe? I believe both are still in production.

Re: Thoughts on locking models as Slipit versions

I fully recommend the SpyDK and Pingo as the back springs always seemed tighter than the UKPKs I have handled Yep, and I forgot to mention Roadie, which is a pure European blade on itself by means of blade steel and COO. It's also a slipit but without pocket clip. Grinding off the flippers of Posit...

Re: Thoughts on locking models as Slipit versions

Instead, I think some fan favorites reconstructed as Slipits would be quite popular. Because that would not only be for one market (the German, in this case), but for quite a few! All of the UK, for example. Exactly. The more markets a single design can fit in, the more payback it can bring, and th...

Re: Thoughts on locking models as Slipit versions

The difficulty on this topic for Spyderco is how you convert a folding knife from one-handed to two-handed, while still sell it well enough to keep this line in business. For most other competitors in the knife industry who are widely utilizing thumb studs, that's super simple: remove the studs. And...

Re: Another Para 3 Defect?

There has already been a topic around talking about this, you might want to check it out://forum.spyderco.com/viewto ... =2&t=73272

And as a brief conclusion, yes there are other Para 3s like this; no it is not a defect but an improvement.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2017 Report

And not to mention on Para 3 how the lanyard tube took over the perfect place for tip-up clip installation. If the configure was similar to that on Manix 2 G10 it could have provided much better carrying experience... Now I'm just having an endless fight deep inside, arguing if I should stick with J...

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2017 Report

I just noticed there's no lanyard tube on the new Manix. Maybe they've realized a lot of us take that tube out anyway lol. I took mine out of my Southard and Mantra. I think you mean, most Taichung Ti frame locks? :D So did I on my K2, and a while ago Domino as well. Same story with one of my frien...

You just did. Thanks for looking out for us. I'm going to move this into the counterfeits area. Kristi Glad that helps.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2017 Report

That new Manix 2 lock back tho, it is a surprise! Seems like Para 3, Manix 2 BBL, and Native 5 just had a child (and yes biologically that is totally doable ;) ) Would be so nice if there is minimal or no liners at all just like Manix 2 LW or Native LW, but I understand it is hard with the floating ...

How do I report multiple counterfeits from a single eBay seller?

http://www.ebay.com/sch/nanthawadee199/ ... pg=&_from=
None of them is real. Why can't eBay offer an option of reporting a fake-selling seller without actually the action of bidding or buying? What a shame.
