Spyderco Forums

Yeeee-Hawww... I checked out a whole bunch of knives at a local SIR and, of course, nothing felt as good as a Spydie. But, they only carry a few models: -Delica SS serated **drools** -Delica serated -Some BIG knife (I think it was a Chinook) -Co-Pilot -And... ummm... like 2 more I wasn't interested ...

Awsome! Be sure to post an updated pic when the other 2 arrive

Well... I don't have my knife yet, but just yesterday my dad asked me about me buying a knife and thinks it's "very dangerous," because he thinks a guy at 7-11 or something will take it and use it against me. So, I'm not going to bring it to school, and will only take it out around people ...

I've been looking into sharpening techiniques and stuff today, and what I'd love is to be able to just take a stone or 2 and maybe a strop and create a razor sharp edge.



Does anyone around here still do it the old fashioned way? Or is the new stuff far superior?

Awsome <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

I was hoping they didn't... I tried out a demo-knife with a spring kinda deal, and it felt so fake, and it could have just srpungopen in my pocket if I hit some button

youch!

Yah, it's me again... the soon to be, proud owner of a NativeII. But, I still have one final question. Do spydercos (Native II in particular) has some kind of spring mechanism that makes opening a lot faster and automatic? And how about for closing? I hope you know what I mean. <img src="smile....

lol! I just phoned up my local police station and talked to a police officer regarding legalities of knives. He told me: -age does not matter. -you can't conceal a knife, but he said it's fine to carry around a "jack-knife" in your pocket, or whatever. -the size of the knife DOES NOT MATTE...

ok... ok... I'm convinced, I'm going with a straight edge. Hmmmm... I've been looking at pic of the native II and yah, I have noticed the hole is partially covered. Is this a big problem? Once I got comfortable with it, would it still take longer than a different spydie to open it? <img src="sm...

lol

lol, I just realized you wrote "everyday carry"

I got it now

This forum is just too good to be true... or is it? I'm just curious, but isn't it a little fishy that the spyderco website has it's own message board? I'll bet some on here are from the company. But that's just my 2 cents <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> Yah, so... th...

backspring? Does that mean that it could backspring onto my hand by accident?

kurtis... yah, I just checked it out and it's got some funky no-name symbol on it. I got it for a gift when I was like 8 from a mail order novelty shop, and I think I remember them calling it a "swiss army knife." Grrr... if I found that editor, i'd stab him. J/k - of course <img src="...

<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> Charlie: I didn't mean to bad-mouth Swiss Army stuff... in fact, the knife I've owned and liked the most was a $20 Victorinox (spelling?). It was just 2 blades, one was about 1 inch, one was about 2 -2 1/2 inches. But, The regular plast...

Hi! A little background for ya: My name is marc, i'm 15, I've always liked knives. I've had those litte crappy "swiss army" multi tool knives since I was like 8, and little ones I'd buy here and there, and a nice little guy at a "Key Man" So, now... here I am, and I just had a su...
