Re: New to the forum and Spyderco

Funny I have said for years, if I had my time in Spyderco buying again instead of buying a range of knife designs like I did. I would just buy Delicas in a variety of steels, blade shapes and colours.
So often I pull a Delica out of a bowl with 5-6 more expensive Spyderco knives

Re: Anyone else talk crap about how many Mules they were going to buy? And then life caught up...

I have been making them slowly, but that’s my Spyderco buzz nowadays. Have all but given up the folder game as I have too many for 5 lifetimes. Been making knives myself, but still love the Mules for testing and throwing a handle on. Mules got me started on the journey. Funny as I am making a choppe...

I would try a Dremel with a cut off disk. I mean the disk will cut hardened steel cleanly so I think it would work on a stone.
This :up-index-finger

You can buy diamond cutting wheels also for a Dremel.

Re: Hitachi White Steel

Would love to see and test a knife in Hitachi White Steel in a Mule. Have recent received a friction folder with a nice thick Hitachi White #1 blade and it’s a beast of a slicer that holds a nice edge for a great length. https://files.catbox.moe/eimoy9.jpeg Have a few chef knives half the thickness...

Re: S30V or SPY27

The SPY27 would be my pick.

Having several S30V knives I find the SPY27 a better steel to sharpen.

Re: If laws and public perception were no issue, would you carry a different knife?

Yes, I'd carry any of my 3-4 inch folders in public that I now carry at home. In my part of Aus it is not lawful to carry any folder (not even a tiny Vic Classic) unless "for a good and specific reason". "General utility" is not a good reason. :eye-roll Come up to Northern Austr...

Re: I don't care about stainless *Edited

When you have Bar Keepers as a friend, it doesn’t matter what steel you use….. ;)


The steel that is blowing me away lately is not Magnacut it’s SPY27 and I live in tropical Northern Australia where I have to cut through the humidity to get out the front door this time of the year.

Re: Your Ideal Folder for Hiking & Backpacking is....

I’m a fixed blade, if I’m hiking or backpacking. One of many Mules I have put a handle on or even a junction. Have plenty of smaller fixed blades that are the size of a folder and even lighter skeleton blades. https://files.catbox.moe/4fdds0.jpeg I LIKE that knife. I like skeleton handles too. What...
