Of course you're really best off handling them both in a store. You will really know which one you like once you see them IRL side by side. But as far as your topic here my vote is PM2 for you. The extra cutting edge length of the pm2 is a functional updgrade, knife will cut better for longer in be...

I came on time, but nothing of interest to find. No issues with the site though, so kudos for improving the experience in that regard. Mystery boxes aren't my jam, so that made it pretty easy to opt out this time around. As far as individual knives go, I think the only current model that could have ...

Of all the popular EDC items, the prybar and the pen were the ones I needed most time to see how they could fit in and be useful. The pen/pencil still doesn't enjoy permanent residence in my pockets, it's more on a day by day basis depending on what I'm doing. The prybar found its place and stuck. I...

The only knife I brought on this trip. Does well for how small it is, but I do miss a longer blade especially for food prep on hikes or in the accomodations with their notoriously superdull kitchen knives... https://i.postimg.cc/KzPNKKwb/20231118-183117.jpg For the weight, it's hard to find a bette...

I’m confused by your observation. That’s neither very cold nor very high.

Not saying you’re wrong, maybe you’re more of an edge junkie than I am, but I’ve never made such observations.
High altitude or not, I’d still let the tasks and need for corrosion resistance dictate my choice of steel.

a seven hours flight farther south. Seven hours farther south :O man, it must almost be getting colder again :winking-tongue It's a brisk one down here today :rofl https://files.catbox.moe/y4wpny.jpg Speaking about brisk, wanna guess where this spydernut lives? You only got one try, so spend it wis...

Seven hours farther south man, it must almost be getting colder again

8< ----- Aicolainen obviously really likes his thin line Endela with its comboedge too and got a thin line Endura too quite recently as far as I know. Indeed I do and indeed I have. I like them both, but I've used the Endura more extensively since I got it, just so I can get acquainted with it. Bei...

A LB or MB could easily be my EDC knife on most workdays and to some degree on my spare time, it's just that the DF2 is even better for me. A Manbug Salt was my primary EDC for over a year and I had no issues with the size. In the end I found the blade to be too specialized. It was utterly fantastic...

I was totally decoyed by the subject title, or maybe not. Anticipated an interesting thread about camping, and that's what I got. Kind of. Just different :) I love camping and backpacking, at all seasons, but this stuff I find too extreme. Don't think I could ever do it, but that makes it even more ...

If my memory serves me right, I've never disliked Spydercos for their esthetics. I can vaguely remember around 8 years back when my interest in knives was gaining traction, I browsed many knife stores and to someone very fresh in the game the Spydercos had a very distinctive look. I was more intrigu...

If I only knew. On a superficial level I’d say when design, materials and quality comes together in a package that is fit for purpose. What those are, I still often don’t know until I’ve tried the right knife in the particular use case I need it for. It’s easier to identify what doesn’t make a good ...

I remember with agony passing up a good deal on a BNIB S1 in Hap40 thinking it would be too big in the handle for me. This was a few years ago before I’ve had a chance to hold/try one.
Now I know better.
It won’t happen again.

I hardly use Facebook and Instagram, but my impression from those few posts that reaches my attention (probably a laughable sample size) it seems like they keep a sensible ratio between old and current. I guess I’ll never know for sure. This week Meta threatened me with an ultimatum to pay for their...

Ohh.. It’s been a while, but I think my priorities would be pretty similar to my current outdoor and SAR situation. I’d want a utilitarian folding knife that could do a variety of tasks from food prep to assisting with first aid work and be as lightweight, unnoticeable and maintenance free as possib...

... For being such a specialized knife there seems to be quite some interest for it, at least on this forum. Hope it doesn't catch on amongst the Instagram crowd and that there's enough for everyone who really "needs" one. Oh man... I´ve never, ever been on Instagram, Facebook or the like...

I'd be happy with one. Do sprint ever make it to Europe? Luckily they do! :smlling-eyes (Differently too - of course - exclusives (I am pretty certain that there has been no European dealer Exclusive so far - hope this will change some day... https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=95535...

I'm very happy that this sprint coincides with me having embraced CE. I don't think I've would have passed on this knife if it was released earlier, but just a year or two back it certainly would't have been such a clear cut decision. Probably similar to how I would have assessed a SE variant today;...

I still have hopes for the Alistair Phillips slip joint, that I would assume would be made in Taichung like the Kapara. https://i.postimg.cc/RFKBRr1Y/IMG-4204.jpg I get the fuzzies everytime I see that picture :smiling-hearts The Kapara never really spoke to me, but if Spyderco makes a production v...
