Re: Spyderco Seconds Sale Scores

It's okay to be critical of Spyderco here. Yes, it is. But this guy has just been negative on every post about the sale. We get it dude, you're unhappy about it. Don't have to keep saying the same thing over and over again giving pointless notifications. Not quite sure why you're all on my *** late...

Re: Calendar Contest

I was drawn to #5 when you posted it earlier in another thread, but #8 looks slightly better. Good pics overall, shame they didn't make the deadline. Perhaps we were all distracted by the seconds sale and its aftermath?

Re: Sprint vs Exclusive vs etc

^what riclaw said. Also, Sprints are directly commissioned by Spyderco (not any dealer/distributor), and maybe sold only thru the Spyderco website, or sold thru dealers in small batches.

Re: Apologies - 2023 Spyderco Online Factory Seconds Sale

Thank you for doing the sale. No matter how it played out, I don’t evaluate my purchases with your company based on an online seconds sale. I wasn’t able to score through the sale, but did make another purchase at a dealer that day to make up for it. The mere fact that you think of those who can’t ...

As an enthusiastic fisherman, my chosen photo for this year showcases the Spyderco USN Catcherman in H1 steel, Scoring the skin of a beautiful fillet of wild sockeye salmon, all atop a bed of fresh parsley with a black poplar wood cookie, adding a touch of rustic charm. With this image, I'm hoping ...

Re: Spyderco Seconds Sale Scores

Got my $150 box delivered. Knife 1 = LIL' NATIVE® PINK G-10 CPM S45VN EXCLUSIVE Knife 2 = Para 3 Black FRN CTS BD1N . I believe the seconds lil native exclusives were selling for around $75 at the most recent seconds sale. There weren't any Lil' Native exclusives during the online seconds sale...

Wow, looks great and functions perfectly! Should be perfectly functional also for left-side carry, I assume?

Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

I'm excited to receive mine and it will be my first SE that's not H1. Based on experience, this blade loves strooping. I have been using 4 micron diamond paste on a home made stroop with thick (3-4mm) leather. I loaded up the stroop with paste (both the top and side of the leather), then drag the b...

Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

Thanks for all the responses here. I'll definitely lower my expectations for the seconds that I'll be getting. Probably why there were so many seconds sold is due to this issue, not passing QC standards. Nevertheless, I'm excited to receive mine and it will be my first SE that's not H1.

Re: Has Spyderco ever made a Spoon?

I used to eat snacks like jelly in a cup that came with a plastic spoon that had serrations on one edge, definitely not that sharp but enough to pierce thru the cup's plastic seal.

Re: Yojimbo 2 Lightweight

A lot of Spydercos are ugly knives that feel great in the hand. I've seen a lot of people that just got into knives avoid them in favor of other brands, then over the years gravitate more towards Spyderco. They know what they're doing. Most won't win beauty contests but they'll sure do a fine job a...

MUCH APPRECIATION to Sal and you Ms Kristi, and the rest of the Spyderco management, for holding the sale again, and for acknowledging the shortcomings of the whole event - and despite all the challenges, are still working hard to pack and ship all the orders, as well as promising improvements. In a...

Re: Yojimbo 2 Lightweight

I'm also in for rounded FRN edges, like those in Seki knives (Delica, Endura, etc). They make a world of difference in comfort compared to the Golden FRN models, with the exception of the Para 3 LW.

Re: Spyderco Seconds Sale Scores

Already have shipping confirmation on 2 of my 3 orders, so that's great. Weird though that the bug stickers that I ordered before the sale still haven't shipped yet. I guess they're prioritizing the seconds to have them shipped out ASAP. Kudos to the folks at Golden for expediting the packing and sh...

Re: Spyderco Seconds Sale Scores

You can’t be serious. This was the worst internet customer experience I’ve ever encountered. This was not their first rodeo, yet Spydie fans allow this to repeatedly happen. I believe this was the first online 2nds sale. This isn't a black friday sale, this is the company doing us a solid instead o...
