Re: MAXAMET Questions and Discussion

This discussion is way over my head but here goes...
My question is, how corrosion resistant is Maxamet? How does it compare with other steels, say, VG-10?
Thanks all and please excuse my ignorance. :)

Re: Any new maxamet knives in the que?

How about a manbug in maxamet? Is Spyderco planning on introducing something like this any time soon? I'd love to try out this steel. And a Manbug might be easier for those of us who have already spent too much on knives. :)

Re: How am I supposed to post pictures?

Can someone help me? I'm trying to post a picture on the forum, but it keeps saying the picture file is too large even though my device says it's only 655 KB. Am I doing something wrong? That allowable size for attachment images on the forum is pretty small. Most of us use a third-party hosting sit...

Re: Just Bitten by the Spyder!

My thoughts as well, whiteeagle58! I bought a Dragonfly 2 Salt (SE) last week, my first Spyderco, and it's rapidly becoming my favorite EDC. Plus I've already got another Spyderco, a Manbug in ZDP-189 coming in the mail. I love the sharpness and quality of these knives!

Re: Fake Dragonfly 2 Salt

Thanks for the info, PeaCent. I've also read on some other threads that most Dragonflies have a teeny bit of up and down in the locked position, so all things considered I'm confident mine is legit. It's rapidly becoming my favorite EDC. :) I love the razor sharp serrations!

Re: DF2 blade play question

Okay that makes me feel better...I just got a brand new Dfly 2 salt, and noticed a little bit of up-and-down movement in the locked position. (Everything else about the knife is top-notch and rock solid) I think too it's just an attribute of linerless back lock FRN knives. I have an AG Russell K93 f...

I should have a Police 4 shipped tomorrow as my first knife of 2018 :spyder:
Thanks! It's great to be involved. I've always been into knives - I especially like trying out new/different steels.

Re: First Knife of 2018

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum and to Spyderco in general. First Spyderco knife period I ordered new year's day - a Dragonfly 2 salt SE. And before it even arrived I "accidentally" ordered a manbug in ZDP-189. :) Guess I'm hooked! The Salt came yesterday and I love it! Lightweight an...

Re: Fake Dragonfly 2 Salt

Hello, I'm new to the forum and to Spyderco in general. I just bought a Dragonfly 2 SE salt (off of Amazon, third party seller) and reading these posts is making me wonder if I got a real or fake one. I don't really have any reason to think it's fake but like I said I'm new to Spyderco and inexperie...
