Re: Here's a Manix 2 XL Copy

still it’s total garbage, a friend showed me his new „toy“ and told me he paid 18$ for it - not even worth half of the money!
we killed it while testing - after some recommendations from me he now owns a real manix2

Re: S90V, S110V, Maxamet?

i own different models in all the steels above and i really like them! but my overall performer would be the s110v (i’ve the military model and that’s my favourite spyderco model) (maybe that’s the point! but at a more objective viewpoint i like the very stainless s110v more over s90v because of edg...

Re: Spyderco LIONSPY

i’ve the full size lionspy too and i seriously love the feel of this knife! the steel is ok, maybe a bit less edge holding as for example s30v but the shape of the blade really is very impractical for my uses - i prefer thinner and pointier blades! still i’m happy i have one but if i would have paid...

Re: So Is Maxamet Dead Now?

i’m certainly no expert in sharpening, but i get my maxamet blades scary sharp all the time! i had marginal issues before to get a good edge on them but since i converted my sharpening equipment to diamond and cbn there are no problems anymore - also saves me a lot of time getting s110v elmax and al...

Re: Which Spyderco to Get a None Knife Person?

maybe my judgement is blurred by knives like the military, manix or lionspy - i wouldn’t consider a para a big n scary blade - but a lot of my non knife peers sure do! so my suggestion would be a dragonfly or maybe a delica and even the native5 would be an option! for me a delica is the smalles knif...

Re: Premium delica?

there was the damascus version in titanium and jigged bone

i think the delica is rather a worker and not a show piece.

if you want a premium delica check out the mantra 1 ;)

Re: Re-Sprinting the Super Blue Caly 3/3.5?

i have a caly 3.5 sb sprint and i really love the aesthetics and the look but somehow it’s my least carried spyderco - no idea why but if i fell like carrying a bigger blade i always reach for one of my militaries or the lionspy even the endura gets slightly more pocket time. maybe i’ve to just carr...

golden made k390 spydies... the thought alone makes me drool! i’d really like a manix sprint with the skeletonized liners in k390 but what i desire is a k390 military - don’t care about the handle color if it’s g10 i‘m in need of a tool steel military and k390 is an european - especially an austrian...

Re: Found a pile of fakes on EBay

i got a fake dragonfly2 years ago by accident!
i bought it as a real one and payed full price!
it was terrible! it wasn’t even worth $5,-
real bad, let me tell you!
we ground the whole thing down to dust on an industrial grinder!
