Re: Can we get some Ultem scaled Sekis please?
There's a reason you never see a used knife pic with it, including in this thread. It scratches and looks horrible (not what you want for a transparent material), and it cracks easily. For example: https://www.reddit.com/r/EDC/comments/125rws1/pretty_bummed_anyone_else_have_this_issue_with/ https://...

Re: What year Police Model is my lefty??
Spydiewiki has some info https://www.spydiewiki.com/index.php?title=C07_Police though unfortunately the "POLICE MODEL" labeled gen 1s don't have a count. I'd wonder if the 20% lefty number continued from the PIG though

Re: Microjimbo
Hey, Bolster: I designed the MicroJimbo with the potential of being able to use it as a defensive knife. As such, I wanted to maintain a subtle integral guard to keep the hand from sliding forward if used to thrust. When used for cutting, the lack of a choil also eliminates the possibility of snagg...

Re: Upping the price.
You can argue Kershaw sells more so scale prices that way, but small makers also are beating Spyderco in pricing. Some examples, Dead Reconing Knives offers an American made titanium integral with (optional) sculpted handles and MagnaCut blade for $425; compare that to the $644 for the Taiwan made i...

Re: Upping the price.
I like 14cr28n over 8cr because of the much better corrosion resistance. Secondarily the fine edge holding tends to be better (there's a lot of overlap depending on the manufacturer in my experience, but the better 14cr beats the better 8cr from what I've had).

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Knifecenter has some Spydies on clearance, mostly but not all discontinued stuff. The Rock Jumper for just under, $60 stands out though, about where it should be priced (IMO)

Re: Parata cruwear ffg and superlock
With the curve on the top of the handle, I'm not sure the superlock would fit(?). I don't think I've seen any superlock designs with a lock bar short enough to hit before the handle curves down and away, including knives with any of the ripoff lock designs like the Shark and Atlas. Designs with a su...

Re: Price increases for 2024
SpydieChef was $191.97 when it first came out in October 2016. At the time, MAP was 40% off MSRP of $319.95. Since then the MSRP has increased to $404.00 and with MAP being 25% off MSRP means the dealer price will be $303.00 tomorrow. It's worse when you go back pre MAP as well. I paid $98.99 from ...

That makes more sense. I was wondering why it seemed so reasonable :pRadioactiveSpyder wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 3:31 pmYeah no — the MAP price is 449.95, making the MSRP $600 or north of that (whichever MAP % you want to use).

Re: Knifejoy Exclusive...Slysz Bowie??!!
Assuming they bump MAP to 75% before release (it appears they haven't yet though), that's $337.46 street. $314.97 if it stays at 70%

Re: Lil' Native Magnacut
In my use… neither offer anything over s110v…. I don’t seem to have issues sharpening s110v that others do, never chipped or broken on any of them (I did manage to micro chip one of my XHP blades)… sadly for me, it seems s110v will disappear from the catalog with the proliferation of magnacut. S110...

Re: Sharpmaker Elite Edition
Given how much the molded plastic base is already, I'm guessing I wouldn't pay what the adjustable one would cost.
An elastic band or a hair band on the stones to make it a bit more acute at each setting is good enough.

Re: MicroJimbo?
^Adding to that list, outside the US are places with a 60mm (~2.36") limit. The Micro is just over. I was really hoping it'd serve as a Dragonfly replacement for me abroad since a Yo2 is my normal carry.
It'll work well for federal government buildings though.

Re: Can We Get Better Clip Screws?
Asking Spyderco to change screws because an aftermarket clip company doesn't provide countersunk screws seems like it's a question being asked in the wrong direction. MXG/Lynch/etc. should be countersinking and providing the right screws. Good on Civivi for doing it right for almost the same price a...
