Like i said before,mine locks up fine.It's the best 35 dollar knife I have ever owned.It sounds like the person who made the video was using his knife beyond what it was designed for.Any kind of tool will fail if you use it beyond what it was designed for. He sounds like the kind of guy who needs a ...

All I can say is use the knife the way it was designed,and you shouldn't have a problem. I have a tenacious, and it locks up tighter than any of my other spydies.A liner lock is not the strongest lock ever made anyway. :)

I have no problem with SS handle knives.Most of my meager collection is SS handled.I think they look classier, and a little less "Tactical".I have a SS handled Police in full se that I carry quite frequently that i don't believe is too heavy.I am 6 ' 2'' and weigh 220 so I guess weight is ...

Wow I didn't realize it was that small. I own a Lum tanto and just assumed it would be the same size.I recently purchased a Adventura and thought it would be larger also,but it's the size of a delica.I wonder if a scorpius is the same size as a delica? :confused:

I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago with two knives I sent in. I sent in my ss native pe, and my old ss copilot se. The native had been ground severely so that the lower grind line was a .125 above the upper swedge grind. :eek: I was angry, because this knife was in very good condition when...

H1 Mariner

Does anyone have one? What are your impressions? Do you carry it everyday? It looks like a very useable design. It appears there is more of a unsharpened area on the tip of the blade than the old Mariners ,that I have to admit would be great for sharpening pencils,whittling etc.I also like the fact ...

I have a Kimber custom II that I shot a 250 with on my CC license.Don't much like a Glock (not that it isn't a great handgun) they just don't feel right in my hand. They feel too much like I am holding a 2x2 in my hand,and the grip angle seems all wrong.A 1911 just points more natural to me.A buddy ...

I have a C46 Ti and i have to say it is one of the more classy looking spyderco knives there is.It is a very elegant design. Very classy looking for a tanto blade, yet not too "Tactical" looking.I vote for a stainless or aluminium handle, and some jimping on the thumb ramp and liner lock.I...

I'm game, how about a combo edge,best of both worlds. :p joking. if H-1 work hardens like you guys say it does,sounds goo to me.As far as a sharpened edge coming at your face,don't really think thats a problem.People use claw hammers all the time , a claw in the eye wouldn't be any more forgiving. ;)
