Spyderco Forums

I don't watch much YouTube reviews. The one's that I watched were not very knowledgeable about knives, at least by my standards. I found Cedric & Ada and a few others good as well. I find that many reviewers that have an "opinion" seem to believe that their "opinion" is someh...

Hi Scandi Grind, I had a small number of them made a while ago for professional chefs. A large knife, MBS-26 blade steel. Exceptional quality. Didn't do well in sales. Very expensive. It's kind funny, I've had chefs contacting me since, trying to find one. Hard to beat, about 12" long blade. sal

Thanx Jason, but we have plenty of steel.

Hi Spydergoat,

I'm pretty sure that they'll get back into production when the expansion is compete.

Hi Kiwigunguy,

My apologies for your frustration. We have Totems, a telephone and an email. I don't understand what's happening. Please Email Kristi, khunter@spyderco.com

Welcome o our forum.

Hi Steeltoes, Was if finished? Did you use it? sal Sal, I'll just make ya one and you can test it. Love to Shawn. Almost like a new steel, and one that I chose for our introduction of powdered metals into the production market. I'd like to pay for it or trade you something. If it works well, we mig...

Hey Jas,

Already 9 pages of chat about it. You may want to begin at page 1 and catch up on the conversation.

I'd like to see s60v get a redemption run. I've only used Shawn's heat treat with s60v so I've been spoiled in that regard.

Hey Steeltoes,

What knife did you use with Shawn's heat treat of S60V?

sal

Hi Joel,

I pretty much do what Mushroom does.

Hi Tucson Tom. Sorry for your disappointment. But as Yab said, there are likely other advantages. We made them to see what we all can learn. Gail and I played round with Ceramic knives as possible dive knife use 20+ years ago. We made a number of prototypes with a ceramic company in the US. So far w...

Hi TkoK83Spy,

I guess we'll see in time?

Hey Jason,

Interesting history. I would guess most folks here have an interesting history. Life is a "Long and winding road".

Hope Mike' gets well quickly.

I guess we're getting a bit off topic here?

But I still would like the chap in some high edge retention steel.

Hi Mat_ski,

That might come to pass with the FRN version. Do you have any particular steel in mind?

sal

Thanx Shawn,

That's good to hear. How hard do you recommend for S60V? Do you have any special heat treat? Do you think it's worth making a run of S60V?

Hey Synov,

Thanx for the info. Combined with Shawn's comments, that makes sense.

Larrin sure is an asset.
