Spyderco Forums

I very much enjoy reading everyones opinions....many of you are so knowledgeable. Specifically I wouldn't want to say what I think is Spyderco's best....there really are so many good ones. What does strike me about the line in general is just that.... nearly all of them make for more than just "...

I would vote a no on this one. My CF walker is one of my favourites, but as a collector its nice to have a difficult to get model. I treasure this knife and would prefer it stays collectable and difficult to obtain. I know this sounds selfish but sometimes its nice to have something others cant hav...

Here's my dream...re-issue the Rookie and Police...with navy blue G-10 handles. The stainless blade against a dark blue handle would look very "cop-like" and I believe folks would "sprint" to be first in line to buy the pair. I would probably buy two ! I think it would make for s...

This is amazing. There was a time when it was common for the JD Smith knives to trade between $45 & $65 (I'm thinking late 03 into 04). I actually landed a NIB SE version for $39 plus shipping at one point. ............yes, I did a forum search going back to 2003 on the JD Smith and you fellas ...

Assuming the knife is "new old stock" and pristine, then by my logic, yes, you are somewhat off base. More precisely, I would say your "level of desire" for the JD Smith is relatively low. The price being asked is still below original MSRP and the PE version of the JD Smith is t...

[quote="zenheretic"]Diamondback]..that would work...thanks !

Yes. If they were falling from the trees you would find them for $50; but "after much searching found one" you are fairly stuck on what the seller asks. Being patient and looking on the usual suspects (ebay, bladeforums, knifeforums) you might find a much better deal, but then again you m...

VERY handsome photos, Slatts......VERY handsome indeed !

-My best

Being rather new to the forum, I keep my desires small......I would be thrilled if the Foliage Green Delica and Endura get a PE option. I'm sure my Spyderco wish list will swell in the weeks and months to come, however !

-Cheers

I very much like this model....so much so I would be happy just to have an exact replica reissued. I have been trying to purchase a plain edge JD Smith....and after much searching found one. However, the seller wants $155 ! Now........ I don't expect to pay 2003 close out prices, but somewhere betwe...

Regarding aficionados and the caly III ... it's not exactly the Caly III, but I gave the original micarta-handled Caly Jr's as groomsman's gifts to all my groomsmen. One of the guys was not a knife guy, but at some point he cut with the thing and he was convinced. I really think this series sells i...

Thanks JaM, catamount, messer454, The Mastiff, and edrose, and everyone..... ...I appreciate your help getting me "up to speed" on the Goddard. I can easily see the "in-between the delica and Endura" nature of this model. Again, it's nice to be able to get some direction from som...

OUTSTANDING photos, fellyjr. Had your images been available when the Vesuvius was first introduced, the knife would still be in production and selling like hot-cakes !

-My regards !

So everything we discuss concerning knives is a skewed/biased view on how We perceive knives....so our views / criticisms of knives will never "register" as an issue for a Non Knife Person...but for us OCD/perfectionistic types..... ....you forgot to mention......"and just a little b...

Was this knife ever done with a plain edge or do they all have partial serrations ?

-regards

I bought a new in box Lil' Temp not long ago and began to use it immediately. I have fallen for it head-over-heels....in my opinion it is much too good a folding knife to lock away. Another one will come to me some day for my collection.......or won't ! However, in the mean time I get to enjoy the p...

If a new member could weigh in on this topic.........most folks I know who are not "into" knives either don't carry one and borrow mine for a quick stint when they need to cut something, or have one knife that they "go with" until they lose it or the knife needs replacing. Just l...
