Spyderco Forums

Well this actually just arrived in the mail, but I've wanted a Lum Chinese as long as I've been on the forum! Finally got one, so very happy mail call!

Welcome back, fellow Midwesterner!

That Slayback was a tough one for me to pass on I have never seen that before until now. If that were available, I would have just ordered it in a heartbeat. That knife is beautiful! Julia...I know a guy, just in case you think it will end up on eBay someday! ;) The MBK website says more are coming...

About to start my workout... Not sure how I feel about these Guardian scales... Might sand them down. The blade is neat tho. [img]https://i.ibb.co/WHLYFHH/20210823-201219.jpg[/img I've seen those flat scales and wondered about them. But the contoured ones are so nice that I've stuck with them. I de...

Midday switch, I’m quickly falling in love with the DEK1. The FK2 is still my do everything and abuse knife.

That's a gorgeous sheath, Josh!

Mini-Onslaught. I like Benchmade knives with the Spydiehole.

Love the Lum designs!

Happy birthday!

I don't why I'm a sucker for all these Laconico designs https://montereybayknives.com/product/ezc-15-green-canvas-micarta They had red paper micarta but I decided to pass on that one. I'm pretty sure it'll be hard like the G10 one I just bought. I prefer the feel of the canvas micarta https://monte...

I also would like to see anything Phil Wilson. One of my biggest regrets is not picking up a Sprig. I'm in the same boat. At the time, finances only allowed me to pick up a South Fork. If given the chance now, I'd pick up a few of each to last me a lifetime :winking-tongue Boy the SOUTHFORK in a ne...

Funny you bring this knife up. A friend of mine at work got one a couple weeks back and brought it in to show me. It's a pretty nice knife for sure, great quality and action just from handling it for a few minutes. I'm thinking it doesn't seem to get talked about or seen all that much because of th...

Thx! Will do. Here's a thread I made a few months back. https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=85386 Yes, I definitely remember that thread - silly of me not to think of it when I noticed these dlc "scratches". I just saw the metalic look of them and assumed it'd scratched to ...

Question for Sal, or anybody who has an original smock to compare with. Did the design change in this with the 2nd detent? I found my spring and put it all back together but now I'm not sure if I somehow did it wrong? I had an original smock that I sold after I bought this one. With that one I coul...

I've got some awesome laser engraved scales on the way, but in the meantime this looks pretty great... https://i.imgur.com/PsyDGUf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Sgzm2Xo.jpg This is beautiful Julia. That's so murdered out cool. Is that the 20cv scales? Yep, they are. But I found some laser engraved ones t...

Nice pair! What can you tell me about the Manix scales? Do like.

Ditto what Rick said about those scales. He and I both really love them. I like them so much, in fact, that I bought a set for my pm2 and for my Shaman.

One of 2 of my Native Chief's seem to slide into my pocket at least once a week. The Chief has really surprised and impressed me.

One of these days I think I'll have to get a Chief. Just waiting for the right exclusive/sprint to really grab me. Maybe if DLT does a purple/cruwear...

Spartan Harsey today, trying to finish the wife’s table today. (That’s the bottom of the table top, need to stain the top and fasten it to the legs still.)

Gorgeous work on the table, Josh!

I've got one on the way and also a set of black carbon fiber scales, so that I'll have an "all-black" Smock.

Hmm...good idea. Until I find the exact scales I want I think I'll put the smooth black g10 ones from my other Smock on this one.
