Re: Got my Para Military 2!

Beautiful! Might be the best utility folder ever made imo. I just got 2 para 3's, and they are wonderful. I still would like to try pm1&2. Thanks for the pics, I love seeing knives being used.

Re: What do Spyderco’s Distributor’s do?

Here's pretty much the answer, from a typical business perspective. I would imagine spyderco follows this line of action as well. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.businessinsider.com/distribution-harnessing-the-enormous-power-of-convenience-2013-10 I pretty much think it's because they sell in bulk ...

Re: Shipping of internal parts

I posted once, but it dissappeared. In summary; Is it possible to some extent standardize parts? Why is it so hard to obtain hardware for a typical person? There must be places that sell them. Does spyderco custom fabricate everything they use?

Delica, regrind, heat colored hardware, burgundy scales, acid washed blade. Maybe getting a deep carry clip for it. I plan on putting ironwood scales on it from g10.it

Re: Caly3 Sprint Run Questions/Help Needed

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Do you have access to an air compressor? I used one with just my blow gun attachment on it for my last caly. I blew the crap out of it. Mine arrived very gritty. I was shocked how many metal shavings came out of the pivot. Flushed with water, hit ...

Re: Choils feel unnecessary

I find it interesting that everyone cites precision" as the reason why choils offer utility. To me it's the opposite. In push cutting it offers a closer grip to the axis, thus more security of the knife pivoting during hard use. And during slashing cuts, gives more distance the the butt of the ...

Kahr Arms Para 3

I'm a sucker for blade shapes. It's in top 3 for why I love Spyderco. I really like the para 3 design, and I think the Kahr Arms shape would suit it well. How would I mod one to have it? Thanks. :spyder:

Re: Spyderco patches

I would obviously buy one patch, but I would be super into collecting them. Just the logo in infinite color combos would be cool. I have some empty spots for morale patches. Velcro option please.

Para 3 cruwear, para 3 s30v dlc+ signet ring/ Emerson "fang" because everyone needs one tacticool knife. be sure and post a pic of those when you get them! Sure! How do some post such hi res pics? I always have to knock mine down about 50% in size and clarity before the forum accepts it.

Re: Choils feel unnecessary

The lw manix is the best fitting knife to my hand that I've ever owned thanks to its regular grip and the choil. One of probably 3 main reasons I buy spyderco!
