Re: Much appreciated Stretch...

Oh man, if a HAP40 Stretch comes out, it won't even be an option for me. It will be mine. I hope to get an Endura & DFly as well.

Much appreciated Stretch...

I've been buying and using knives for over 20 years and I suppose Spyderco knives have always intrigued me. I finally purchased my first about two months ago and haven't slowed down much since. I have always preferred things that are older or have a history to them. When I found about Spyderco's SB ...

Re: Best place to find odd/older models?

I recently searched the great oracle for a second Stretch in SB. The only store I came across that actually had one was tricityknifeworks.com. They shipped it the same day I ordered it with 2 day priority. They had a few other models that aren't plentiful elsewhere, so they might be worth a look if ...

Re: Seki City edge bevels....

Thanks for all the input. I've used their website (W&R) system to inquire about the edges so it shouldn't be a matter of spam. I just received a Tenacious (green) today with similar issue. I'm mostly concerned about my Super Blue Stretch, the rest I will try to take care of myself.

Seki City edge bevels....

Hi everyone, I'm hoping some knowledgable people canshed some light on some concerns I have with recent purchases. I've bought quite a few Spydies lately, some being made in Seki City. 4 out of 5 have edge bevels that don't seem to be equal angles. This is affecting sharpness on some, but not on oth...

Re: I've realized I love choils.

The only reason I haven't purchased a delica or endura yet is because I love choils. Although, I will probably end up getting an Endura soon just to see if I can cope without a choil. Lol

Re: Byrd Fixed Blade

I love this thread! (I was just fantasizing about a 1/3 larger, fixed version of the Dragonfly)
I would like to see a wharncliffe or tanto - ish blade, Japanese style, called the Crane or "Tancho".

Re: Sharp Edges on Spyder Hole

I usually wrap some very fine sandpaper around a 1/4 inch dowel and work inside the hole in a circular motion (like stirring coffee). Works great for me.

Strange tint on PM2 blade

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and fairly new to Spyderco knives. I have a question about something I noticed on a new PM2 I recently purchased. I was so impressed with the quality of the knife, fit and finish seemed absolutely perfect. I'm a details guy, so I usually can find something wrong wit...
