I really hope the SPY27 Military Sal mentioned he carries in his pocket makes it into production, that's a definite buy for me. What if it is a lightweight? :winking-tongue Sorry, but after G10, CF, Ti/Flutted Ti, CF + Ti I'm not gonna buy a Light cheapweight Military, I'll buy the G10 SPY27 Milita...

My 1st was the Elk Mountain and then a few more followed. Haven't got a 31 yet. I was still more attracted by 21s because they were done when The Man himself was still in the company. Might get one, especially now that they are getting cheaper and cheaper, I mean for the price of a couple of Spyderc...

Urban looks OK but the price is out of this world, in EU you can buy 2-3 M390/Ti/Micarta/Wood slipjoints from Lionsteel or Viper for the price of that Urban. Stovepipe can be used as a multitool just as I figured but the we felt that it doesn't need a steel insert story is absolutely not OK. In this...

I hope that SPY27 Military makes it thru that significant discussion into production,
Please don't make it exclusive so people from the other sides of the pond will be able buy it.

Hi Gsg9, We have to QC in golden. We've tried 3 times to set up distribution in Europe to try to save the consumer money and it failed each time. even this model needed attention in Golden before we could ship it. Our prices are based on our costs to build the model. We cannot compete with a Chines...

1. When we work with a vendor. They give us a price for a finished piece to which we add costs for shipping, QC + any work we have to do, plus our margins. The designs and standards are specified y us. 2. Costs of doing business I guess would be similar in most industries. Materials plus labor plus...

So, as I suspected from the silence, it doesn't... Is not that the lock would not function and fail but in this day and age I don't see why you would not add one, especially at this price point, how much would it cost and does it really matter 450 instead of 420. Sebenza moved to ceramic ball, Hinde...

In none of the pictures I am able to figure out if there's a steel lockbar insert in there.
Great that they added a flat head screwdriver, maybe a Philips would have been a better one ?

279.9999999999$ in The Wild West translates to 300+ EUR here in Eucrapland.
300+ EUR for an Urban that's not too bad

Can't really say from the picture, since the blade has been shortened was the tip lowered a a bit, as promised?

Can be used as a screwdriver so it's a multi-tool.

I don't see the steel insert, is there any?

That Stovewhatever is so ugly it's getting really attractive to me. At 420$ will be 5 to 600EUR in Europencrapland... Titanium clip, custom pivot, no lanyard craphole, no extra 20 holes in the scales, nice. It looks rather small, maybe just a bit larger overall would have been a bit better? I see th...

Another datapoint: CRK Knives start at $425 and sell out every release. Someone has money and is spending it. I think we can see the future of Spyderco. They’ll have to move up market now or later. I don't think the future of Spyderco is at 400+ Speaking of Sebenza, first that has a different targe...

SOG Knives has been acquired by GSM Outdoor s, the same company that acquired Cold Steel . Whatever that means... https://www.knivesillustrated.com/gsm-outdoors-acquires-sog-knives/ I have a SOG TomCat 3 , excellent folder, the original TomCat won Blade Magazine knife of the year award in 1988, now...

Marcin had a larger SpydieChef 2 prototype quite a while ago https://www.instagram.com/p/BfGw29Lh-s_/ Don't think Spyderco would make it,,, Larger would appeal to fewer people, although Spyderco advertises them for kitchen for rock jumping etc they are made to appeal to general EDC category to sell ...

I didn't believe they will go up by 15% but it looks like Ramzar was right. And dealers renewed the stock only after the prices went up. It also looks like 200$ is a mild psychological threshold for zee americanzzz... We've crossed that threshold in effing EU some years ago and we complained about t...
