Spyderco Forums

Simona, great pics. The steel you couldn't remember the name of is Coldsteel's San Mai III. I'll quote from the brochure."San Mai means 3 layers and is given to the traditional laminated Japanese blades.Laminated construction is important for it allows different grades of steel to be combined i...

I wish I could go but for the price of the trip I can buy me a whole bunch of very nice spyders. If such a show will ever be in Holland and I can , I will most certainly go. Have fun!!!

I have a gunting and I intended to EDC it but it turned out not to be that practical. First half of the knife sticks out of you pocket I found that uncomfortable when seated(I have a little bit of a belly). Second, it happened to me twice that I pulled the knife half opened out of my pocket an almos...

Thank you very much for the info. The calypso I have is a big one. It came in a white box with a little brochure of 1998 in it with former models; very nice.

Hi,

I would like to know what the difference is in quality between G10/Micarta/Carbonfiber or FRN as handlematerial. And what is the best.
I have a Calypso with a micarta handle with no extra liners and the knifehandle doesn't appear very durable or sturdy to me but maybe I'm wrong.

Hi,

I have 2 Harpy's; one older model ATS55/G10 and the new one VG10/SS. I prefer the G10 over the SS because of it's grip and looks(fittings, finish)

Thanks for sharing. And I thought I was the only knut to spend so much money on knives. Since I am on this forum I know better. Enjoy.

Thank you for your opinion. I think I will contact my retailer today and see if they have one in stock.

Hi,

I am looking at a picture of a cricketSS/PE right now and I was wondering if this knife, because of it's size, is any useful or just a nice collector's item.I maybe planning to buy it this week.

Thanks, Deacon for the info and the beautiful pics. We'll see when the Harpy is ready(can't wait)

What about the Harpy G10. One of my all time favourites, the knife I carry the most.

just like my old ATS55 Harpy.I like carbon fiber over steel because of it's grip. If that new Harpy has an adjustable pivot pin too, I will most certainly buy it.
Thank you for the info

Thanks for the info but I would like to know what CF means.

Very nice, wish it was my knife.

If I had your craftman's skills I would have made an adjustable pivotpit( I can't stand even the slightest blade play) However, I think you did a great job.

I am a big fan of the Harpy(the knife a carry the most) Who can tell me more about the HarpyCF.

Hi, I have the Dodo and it fits my rather big hands like a glove. The only minor I can think of is a little freeplay(Both up and down and a little sideways) I am allergic to knives with freeplay(even the slightest) so I won't buy a knive wthout an adjustable pivotpin very fast. About the Yoyimbo; Th...

Greetings, I'm Arend and I live in Assen(Dutch TT) I have been a nut about knives for as long I can remember. Since last year I have begun to really collect knives. My first knife was a gator(gerber, very bad lockup and a lot of free play)Then I bought 2 Foxes and after that 8 CRKT's.I had a brochur...
