Perhaps I still have some learning to do as pertains to sprint runs, so please bear with me. Maybe I don't fully understand the sprint run philosophy, but what's the rush? Is the purpose of a sprint run to have the entire run sold and spoken for before Spyderco even gets finished making them? Would...

Folks should remember that the Para 1 CPM-D2 sprint sold so poorly that it actually got closed out at a steeply reduced price. That knife (I own one) deserved treatment much closer to what's going on here, IMO, so I have a lot of sympathy for the folks at Spyderco who have to call the shots on spri...

If you think Spyderco knives have light retention you should check the competition. Sal actually seems reasonably concerned about blade retention most of the time. Some knives have next to nothing holding the blade in. The Military usually has a fairly good detent, it's also tip down only, so theor...

Would it be safe to say that these are sold out already? I am on several pre-order lists, and it looks like I missed out on all of them. Does anybody know how many of these were made? two dealers I've talked to have not gotten their entire supply yet, and there's hardly been any on ebay yet. 600 pi...

I wouldn't be happy with the edge on that one. I'm picky. I know it's always a possibility of getting one like that or getting a knife with other minor issues that don't really affect anything. If I don't ask whoever I'm buying it from to check for the things that might bothere me, I really have not...

Safest for your would be to get paid by the winner, ship it to the winner with tracking, and let the two of them work it out from there. It's also the only way that would not violate eBay rules. this is the only way I'd do it as well. Complete your ebay sale properly, and let them worry about the r...

I will see what sort of detent the Millie has and go from there. I've never understood the concern of tip up carry. I'd be MUCH more concerned about carrying tip down with a weak detent. When I carry a knife tip up with the blade against the outside of my pocket, there's nowhere for the blade to go...

I think that most of the people do not care if knife has cc number or not. In the past quite a few times I saw on e-bay CC knives with random number were catching more $$ than regular. For me personally it doesn't matter, except safe queens- small knives (Kopas, Micro-Dyads), which I prefer without...
