With such a small knife you should put one of those thingies on it that makes a noice when you whistle.

I tested 2 Customs in M390 like 5 years ago, one was reviewed, the other was tested and sent back to the maker. That was before I standardized the SIC stones I was using at 400 grit for the coarse edge section. Both were .006" behind the edge and 62 HRC. Ah, ok... now we are on the same page I...

Hi Mikael Andersson! And welcome to the Spyderco Forums. :spyder: Do you have an idea about the blade shape / intended use for the Sphinx? :) Hello LC Kid and thank you.

The blade shape would be similar to that of the Spyderco Sprig but with an even more acute point. Well... I think that S35VN would ...
