Spyderco Forums

I've done this in the past just by removing them to locktite the screws. I could barely get them in tight again. Has anybody else had this horrid problem?

I don't see sand being too much more of an issue for the Manix than the Paramilitary. You'd have to almost try to get sand in the ball bearing to really cause any issues.

Aha, nice pun.

Whatever happened to the introvert project?

It's more of a hole to put your finger in for grip.

Both, you should get her to EDC a decent knife and have good kitchen knives :D

That's great!!!

I'd be up for glow in the dark FRN.

Hi Swedeman, Welcome to our forum. Sorry for your frusration. Sometimes familiarity creates habits for which you are unaware? There are only 3 reasons why the Sharpmaker will not work well. 1) the stones re not clean and will take no more steel. Clean the stones with a course kitchen scrath pad and...

I stay away from the Southard because of the other things you can get at that price point. Nothing against the knife except for only being tapped for righties.

What if this were done to a Manix or Sage?

Speaking of cuts with the XL, I've closed the blade on my middle finger, the nail barely stopped it and the flesh it did land on was cleanly sliced. That's the only Spyderco I've done anything like that with.

I'm more interested in the price point, it seems to have been made more affordable than the other Southard.

Then there's some people that don't know what a sharp edge feels like, and when they see your crazy sharp knife they think it's dull.

No, that wouldn't be needed. I'd just tape up the areas I don't want painted.

If I add paint to the G10 or FRN of my knife scales, IE to the pores and crevices of the said g-10 or frn for cosmetic reasons (or in some cases practical) would that affect the warranty at all? Especially if it in no way affects the function of the blade?

More like thicker Dyads is what I'd say, hope that answers the question.

So kind of like a SAK, okay.

If anybody can answer me, are the multitools Balisong Style or done like the Byrd tool/other Spyderco multitools?

Haha, yeah, me too.
