It will be available for purchase soon. The SpyMyto was featured in Reveal 14 only, because it is a Flash Batch. It’s not a regular production model, so there’s no reason to put it in the Annual Product Guide.
Well, hmm, I didn’t think about it like that, but it does make sense. Thanks, bud!

Re: 2024 Product Guide - Now Live!

The SpyMoto wasn't listed in this catalog. I hope it's still in the queue. I love my SpyOpera so much, and I am super excited about the new SpyMoto.

Re: SNK Manix 2 LW is coming!!!

I fully intended to buy this one, but I was busy doing something at work and forgot to buy it. It stinks that I missed it, but the White FRCP/Satin Rex45 Manix 2 LW GPKnives exclusive dropping soon will make up for it. I have some of the other 4V exclusives of SNK's, and they're great, but I almost ...

Re: SNK Manix 2 LW is coming!!!

I have a few of SNK's 4v exclusives, but I skipped the previous manix 2 and native chief in the hopes that they'll do the LW models. I am greatly pleased to see the manix 2 lw as it is one of my favorites. I do hope they revisit the delica one day with this combo since we've already seen the jester ...

Re: What "others" are in the mail?

I have a Bastinelli Creations Grumpy and one of the Reaper Tacs on the way. I have no idea what I would ever use them for, but I'm definitely going to carry one around and feel like the cool guy that I know I am.

Re: A copper spyderco

Never understood the attraction, Cu is (very) heavy, soft and poisonous. Now, Cu anodized Titanium or Aluminum are very nice. Roland. Is it poisonous to humans if they do not put it in their mouth? There are certain metals that kill bacteria and are used for door handles. Copper may be one of those...

Re: Why Do Seki Models Have Lock Rock??!!

I have a ton of Delicas, and I don't notice lock rock on any but 1 of them. I have several Golden lockbacks too, and there is lock rock on at least 2-3 of them. In my personal experience, it's been hit or miss but still very rare, and I seem to mostly have good luck with them. I don't understand the...

Re: Rex 45 vs K390?

I'm going to reply again with another anecdote, because I love both of these steels so much. Regardless, to JoviAl's point above, I also think K390 is excellent. I used my PE K390 Police to cut the fiberglass insulation when installing it above my garage ceiling. Typical double car garage size, so I...

Re: Rex 45 vs K390?

Rex45 and K390 are both fantastic steels, and I love them both. Rex45 is my favorite, and anecdotally, my Rex45 outperforms any of my M4 and performs far better (in my unscientific opinion) than Larrin's KSN results would indicate. Also, I've never chipped it nor rolled an edge, but I have chipped t...

Re: So excited for this drop!!!!

I'm definitely stoked for this. I love the Para 3 I have, and I want the manix even more, because it's thinner stock with a wider blade. The white FRN is awesome too. I don't normally go for DLC/TiCN coatings, but it just looks too good on this platform. I'll end up buying the satin one too whenever...

Hands down the Manix 2 or 2 XL. I would definitely choose one of them. Buy both.

Re: Will they ever have full Superblue again?

Super Blue kind of sucks for anything besides light use, such as for food. In that case, get a sweet kitchen knife instead of a folder. Which is made for food anyways. Respectfully, I'm gonna have to disagree with you here. My anecdotal experience is that if you take superblue down to sub-10° per s...

Re: Will they ever have full Superblue again?

I would by an unclad SuperBlue or unclad v-toku-2 Delica in an instant. I'd buy 3. I picked up the Caly Jr in the unclad superblue, but it just doesn't jive with me; the Delica is so much better in just about every way - except where it comes to the liners. Liner-less FRN with screw inserts (barrel ...

Re: Spymyto is hot!

This one is my top pick from the new reveal. This and the HIC Mule are "must haves". The Cru-carta Military 2 will be a future purchase as well, but it'll be regular production, so I can grab it later on.

I'm going to second the suggestion that a K390 Delica (regular version, not that wharncliffe nonsense :p ) is the perfect companion. Although, I went with the k390 Enuff 2 as well, and I love it. I have no question about its capability to do what I need it to which includes some light batoning (one ...
