Re: Military...so much handle

Waaaaaaay too much handle was the intention of the design.
It's a Military knife. Can be handled with a pair of gloves on and with two hands on if need be.

Re: Spyderco Screw vs Pinned issue again.

IF ?? that statement is true or close to true- then the pinned Spydercos would be less likely to have the material break,
hence the pins.
Hands up ! all those whose pinned Spydercos have had cracked or broken scales.

Re: Vote: SMOCK v.s. IKUCHI

The innovations on/of the Smock far outweigh the Ikuchi.
It's quite obvious to me !!

For self defense I carry my Roman Gladius, hidden down the right leg of my pants.
I walk a bit funny, but that's normal for me.

Re: M4 Shaman Exclusive

I just received my M4 Shaman and it is currently submerged in boiling water.
About two or three hours boiling and it should be safe and germ free - I hope ?

Re: 4 new knives all very dry.

I run all my IPSC Competition Glocks WET (with oil) and I like my Spydies the same.
Of course I refer to the working parts, not the "handles".

Re: M4 Shaman Exclusive

For reference, less than 2% of the orders bought 3 or 4 knives, 11% bought 2 and the rest bought one knife. So, in other words, everyone had a fair shot. Absolutely amazed about the amount of crying in this thread and yet here are the stats. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease!!!!"

Re: M4 Shaman Exclusive

I will now NOT buy anymore Spydercos from BHQ until I receive my pre ordered Smock ,approx 8 months ago.
And I think all Shamans should be recalled and start the process again.
