Spyderco Forums

I'm gonna wait for BBB or another steel aficionado to chime in.

BUT I do think the statement "hardness = how wear resistant a steel is" is clearly false. Hardness = the quality of being hard.

I wouldn't hesitate on buying a linerless knife. I personally hesitate on frn because aesthetics but liners don't matter in my experience.

I'm in!

Good thread idea. Surprised it hasn't taken off. These were my stand outs from this year. The CRK I didn't get this year but it saw a lot of use. I'd recommend any of these knives without a doubt.

Hogue Deka I'm with GMascus handles. Love this knife. And GEC big jack.

So this one doesn’t really qualify as a traditional to me, but it’s a slipjoint so maybe. Real steel Luna, titanium handle, n690 and a pocket clip. Thin blade stock, ground super thin behind the edge. Really liking it so far. B7143B25-4A1E-4D70-B4AA-C5E18E31D195.jpeg Definitely not a traditional bu...

I've been carrying around a Queen stockman recently and its been a pleasure to use. https://files.catbox.moe/63igdv.jpg Three blades is a bit much though. Could you guys recommend a two blade pattern that has one wharncliffe blade? I'd like the main blade to have some belly, so clip point, maybe sp...

I'm really trying to get a Combat Troodon with one side serrated and one side plain. I've a Bladehq exclusive Ultratech with a g10 cover and it's plenty grippy. Mine's with a drop poont blade though. Actually, Bladehq dropped a new g10 Ultratech exclusive today. It's jade g10. Mine's from 2017 when ...

I enjoy my trekker for what it's worth. Not a bad second knife.

Played around with all these guys while processing my deer. :) Takamura Gyuto (R2) Spyderco Southfork (CPM-S90V) Bark River Mountain Man (CPM-3V) Bark River Wilderness Explorer (CPM-Cruwear) Becker BK15 (1095CV) Jeff White Bush One (1095) LT Wright Large Pouter (AEB-L) also had a Mora Flex (1.3mm o...

I prefer the native 5. Better ergos for me, better blade shape for me, easier to carry for me, better steel, better lock. I feel like probs a stronger pivot. Delica is fine. I have 5 or 6. They're very collectible and they do everything they need to do. I've gifted them too. I wish they were ground ...

The Kephart design is my favorite for utility and woods stuff. However, I don't know how spyderco could make it fresh. You can't change the blade shape and you can't change the handle shape. Otherwise it isn't a Kephardt.

Y'all, these lil Hogue autos are amazing. I think I'll be picking up the wharncliffe version.
CPM 154, 2.75 in blade, solid button lock.
Best factory edge I've ever had.

Dang that sucks. Hope they can get it fixed for you. I don't hear about backsprings snapping too often save on custom slip joints that are made with really heavy tension. I wonder if they can mod it so that the new backspring will work.

Do whatcha want. Looks like a pretty decent mini collection. Jhot Singh for self defense and a cool looking blade, older Native (Native 3? Or 4?) For edc, and a small fixed blade for small fixed blade uses ( EDC plus T (t for tang lol). I'd clean em up.

Yes give me a blacked out native 5 salt. Will buy so quick.

I want the knife Doc is asking for not for hunting but just because I like small fixed blades like that for edc and to just leave around.

Personally, I would go with the EAA/Tangfolio Witness in 10mm (or 38 super) but I can't stand Glocks. Am interested in reflex sights. Well, I forgot I was interested in them until this thread. I will be checking them out now. You mind me asking why you can't stand Glocks? I've personally been on a ...
