Spyderco Forums

Here in canada, our laws have basically the same interpretations as yours do.... being old England's colonies... :rolleyes: Anyway, here in canada, the centrifugal situation means if a Custom Officer is able to open a knife without touching the blade, it is considered centrifugal force. And we all ...

Figured I throw in a pic of the Centofante, made back in the beginning days of the Golden factory.

I've also been carrying a SS Cricket daily for several years, mine is a PE and it doubles as a money clip. I like the slim profile of the SS.

I will also include in the package something to ship the bad one back in with pre-paid postage on it so that you will not be out anything.

Now that is awesome service right there, two thumbs up to Jon!!!

Greyb, I don't blame you at all for being disappointed, but hang in there and I'm sure either Jon or Spyderco will make it right. Good luck and welcome to the forum.

Greyb, I would send it in. Did you buy it new, and if so did you contact the dealer? Are those screws stripped out or is it just look that way to me in the pictures? Looks like someone used an impact wrench on it :)

Great collection! And in response to your question below, my answer would be YES!!! My lil Temp and Original Manix hoarding was way way out of control. "Anyone else look around and find that they have way too many of the same knife or just like a knife so much you buy everyone you can get your ...

I recognize your screen name and I'm glad to see you posting in this forum Bapple! Nice pics, show off

Look forward to seeing your future posts and pictures!

That's an easy one, Para-Military was a great decision!

Nice collection! I'm just glad they slowed down a bit cause I was having a hard time trying to collect them all myself. I was always an original Manix fan so of course I had to have these as well, I did get rid of a couple after finally collecting them all including both Pilot variants but still hav...

Sorry can't help with the number since I have never needed or look for it, but I have ordered several times form Bento and he always replies promptly on email in case you haven't tried that yet.

Don't give up on your lost Dyad, many a lost spydie have found there way back home so I wish you the best of luck. I sold one recently or I would help you out, they are pretty hard to find and fetch a good price.

You must have some hard ice cream if you have to cut it.

Good luck with your Para and thanks for sharing.

I can only comment on the one black bladed knife I owned which was the first version Para and it did show a lot of scratches, It didn't hamper it's use as an EDC however. I have read that it can indeed cause more harm then good to the blade like you mentioned but I did not see that on mine.

There was also a handful of D2 serrated.

Congrats on the new, 2nd Stretch for your collection. So how did your first Stretch hold up? I take it that was the VG-10 model. I am contemplating which one I should order, I am not sure I want to put the time in maintaining another ZDP blade but I do want to try the Stretch. I will use it mainly f...

I pull out a knife in public every time I pull cash out of my pocket. The cricket hasn't failed me yet :)

I agree that production knives can't all be sharp, but 99% of them should be, shouldn’t they? Of course when you think about someone sitting there sharpening some 20,000 plus Manix 2's I am sure mistakes can be made. Not sure if anyone inspects that work or if they go straight to the box? My experie...

Right now, I've actually had an interest in the Perrin Street Beat. Seems like it would have a nice feel in the hand--and it's attractive to boot. Peace, -S. Hi Starmate, I EDC a Street Beat and can't say one bad word about it, love the feel of that knife in hand. I actually had a custom boot sheat...
