Re: Opinions on the combo edge

thanks for the input everyone, thanks for your time does anyone have a pic of how the black coating on a combo edge holds up ( thinking endura / delica) Here's a post I made on another thread, showing off my CE Delica. Admittedly, most of the wear near the edge came from me giving it a bit of a rep...

Re: What would it take to get a Forum Knife?

It would be most realistic i.e. achievable, to restrict choices to a Golden made model in a USA made steel, and no really exotic features. Resurrecting a discontinued model might also be too big an ask. We’ve had N5, N5 lw, & PM2 in recent history. Personally, I think all the Golden models are ...

Speak freely Share, give your 2¢ about how you feel between these choices. No other steels or options, just these as they are with what you can...

Re: Best Edge Performance Steel between these choices?

out of the 4 ive only used cruwear so i may skew the numbers - however i do use it ALOT - i use a para3 for edc and i can complete 90% of my tasks with it - the other 10% go to a fixed blade. my daily chores will see the usual card/ zip ties etc but i also cut fish/ meat/fruit/polystyrene/ balsa woo...

Re: Design details that are deal breakers

this is a really interesting thread, i hadnt really thought about alot of the points raised, probably as i subconciously 'reject' some designs as not for me but not thinking about the why i tend to use folders for more detail 'small' work - i always use a fixed blade for heavy duty so my folders are...

Opinions on the combo edge

I was ‘playing’ with my old edc Gerber multitool and remembered how useful the serrated blade was. I very rarely carry more than 1 knife ( it’s a Europe thing) so was thinking about trying a combo edge- in particular the all black delica ( my Gerber is black) If there was a para3 in CE I’d jump on i...

Re: 2020 Spyderco Product Guide

It's disappointing that the release of the product catalog has become so anti-climactic. I don't fault Spyderco for switching to their reveal catalog system for new releases, but I wish the first reveal of the year would coincide with the catalog release so the occasion had a little more wow factor...
