Has super blue ever been done just by itself? High carbon steel not stainless correct hence the cladding?

Thanks that is kind of what I was thinking the PS on my Military is really nice but it is a much longer blade.

It could be a glitch but, both edges just went In stock at Smokey Mountain Knifeworks SpyderEdge... https://www.smkw.com/spyderco-massad-ayoob-sprint-run-serrated PlainEdge... https://www.smkw.com/spyderco-massad-ayoob-folding-knife-plain-edge I just wanted to say thank you for posting :hundred-poi...

Has anyone here tried the Para 3 combo blade? If so how do you like it.

I am also looking at buying a new Para3 Full SE in S45VN to see how it compares to my SE in S30V.

Any input on S45VN in Serrated edge?

CF/S90V Military 2 is an insta-buy for me

Ditto.

Well what do you know? Turns out there are differences betwixt the three after all! EDC today will be Para3 and Manix2 Please see pics below and my new super cooks knife by Spyderco. https://i.imgur.com/hhkYphG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8jyp0rI.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gWmlWLA.jpg The last two picture...

The serrations as I recall are nearly identical in pattern and depth as I recall I will pull all 3 out when I get home and take a picture, maybe it will reveal something? I know all three are different blades with the Para3 being essentially a shortened PM2. To my thinking it has allot to do with th...

I've coated both blades with Slip 2000 EWL dry silicone lube and it makes the flip silky smooth, and has also prevented any more surface rust from developing. Thats great. CruWear after silicone lube soak seems pretty darn stain resistant. But when I first got my PE something got on it and it ruste...

Thinking about trying out an SE knife. I’ve narrowed it down to a Shaman or pm2 but more inclined towards the pm2. My question is: how good are the serrations on these, which one is better? Is s30v a good steel choice for SE? It seems it would chip in that form easily? Apologize if it’s been asked ...

This is already being done on another sites where Sal himself is a moderator. Perhaps someone can clarify. Does Sal actually moderate the "For Sale" area of that web site? Or is his involvement limited to just one of the hundred-or-so subforums that deals specifically with the Spyderco br...

Geez thanks! Now I am considering a light weight Manix 2 for the first time wonder if DLC Combo blade was made? Great Video, Michael Janich reminds me of some of the Rangers that came in to train us in the Army back in 1986 when my basic training got extended from 8 to 11 weeks when they thought we ...

This is already being done on another sites where Sal himself is a moderator. This site has a modest membership fee and I can affirm having bought there it is a true gem for the knife community. It is my opinion since Sal is well aware of this other site / forum that has to do with blades "Hint...

About the old I mean very old Byrd Diamond webfoot....

Ducking...

I liked mine so much I threw it in the trash last week for the space in my toolbox.

If the CBN version is anything like the rods it should be great.

Perhaps Spyderco would do well to observe what sells like this and make them actual standard production runs instead of sprint runs? Sure keep the sprints and exclusives in different steels but when you clearly have a winning design as proven out by sales then it is pretty much a no brainer what to ...

I'm going to keep posting this until maybe someday it gets made, but with the scarcity of any serrated Militaries it may just be a pipe dream. https://live.staticflickr.com/887/39359510240_13bc74c3cb_z.jpg I know I just posted this recently, there was just a combo edge topic. Seems to be coming up ...

..... It's kinda crazy the Manix 2 doesn't come in full SE. I really hope they do one in SE MagnaCut. I only have one Shaman in SE and I don't use it too often but I definitely can recommend it if someone already likes the Shaman. Yes, I really wonder why this is - no SE for the Manix 2! Especially...

Thanks JD Now I just have to find a serrated version that is not close to $00.00 Yesh the nerve of some people!

I happen to like, even prefer combo edges on knives with 3" and larger blades. I find them to be very useful. I just can't figure out if I like the PE part fore or aft on the blade. I have thought about this as well.Coseidering a PE on a combo either fore or aft I would love it to be chisel gr...

I,,,,,,, So no protecting of the blade is necessary when using the SM. .... As said I personally don´t mind scratches of whatever origin on my blades at all anyway. But when sharpening SE, the Sharpmaker can scratch up one side of the blade, when using certain methods - like the one I use, where I ...
