What about 30 with a microbevel at 40?

I'm approaching sharpening my caly 3 for the first time, and it's still fairly sharp (shaves well with a little pressure). Is it unwise for me to approach this on the sharpmaker without diamond stones? If you are referring to the Spyderco Sharpmaker Model 204 optional diamond triangles (which I hav...

Would there be any purpose in creating a mirror finish cutting edge if most of the cutting you do is slice cutting and not push cutting? OK, then, with Sharpmaker 204 with diamond, grey and white triangle stones, assuming I want to attempt something close to a mirror finish, is that even possible? I...

I would much rather see a standard production s90v Para 2 and see far fewer sprints so the production efforts spent on the high wear stuff could be focused on something readily available that everyone could enjoy. + 10! The s90v steel is used in the standard production Phil Wilson fixed blade colla...

jtoler_9 isn't coming off too well on this thread. When a person make a personal character comment, then learns he didn't have his facts straight, generally an apology is in order.

you could always pick up the laminated zt 560 in s110v... if you don't mind an RC 58 in your 110v.

No

southard in k390 or s110v

Wow its allmost perfect t.sal should hirem to help fill all the backorders.lol.never buy anything from alliexpress ever its all fakes. this wasn't from the bay .wow how do you tell thebox even the paper work.how much was it? No, but where do you think these knives are sold after they're shipped int...

I think everyone crying for blood should try and comission their own sprint runs and sell as low as they can. Would be fun to compare what everyones markup would be. Actually, that's really the point. BBS *should* sell it for as much as they can get, as long as Spyderco lets their Exclusives be use...

who is left to take the risk and comission a special S90V Millie? . Risk?? Is that a joke or something? It is a license to print money. A license that should not have been granted. Like I wrote in my post way up there... I would personally put down, upfront, the cost of a 300 knife exclusive of s11...

So, your suggestion is...what, that we boycott Spyderco? :confused: No, as another poster suggested, Spyderco should include contract language in "Exclusive" production runs that prohibit the reseller from charging more than list price. If they can't agree to that, then they don't deserve...

We are also free to rally for a cause and Ill make a stink about it in hopes that something gets done. +1. But only if Sal will not give *me* an Exclusive on an s110v Military and allow me to auction off every one of them at exhorbitant profit. In that case, you can all shut up and let me realize m...

this is not about BBS. It is about Spyderco accepting an order for an EXCLUSIVE in a hard to produce blade steel. It is about Spyderco taking production capacity from non-auction-to-the-highest-bidder dealers and giving it to an auction-to-the-highest-bidder dealer. That production run of s90v Mili...

Off topic a bit - I am looking for an orange Para Military, I think they would fly if a sprint were to be done. :D they don't have production capacity in Golden to do a Sprint of orange Para 2... they used that capacity up producing the Exclusive Military s90v which is the subject of another thread...

Well, it had to happen. An institutionalized flipper.... to those who advocate for a free market, I agree. However, this practice does nothing but piss people off toward Spyderco. Essentially Spyderco is supplying a flipper, when they COULD BE producing these same knives FOR THEIR OWN CUSTOMERS, vi...

that's funny cuz I was thinking about that same question this morning. I don't actually know anything, so I'm going to try to fake it :) - shaving is push cutting, which in my view represents a minority of the cutting tasks outside the kitchen. I'm not sure, outside the kitchen, whether push cutting...

http://www.crucible.com/PDFs%5CDataSheets2010%5CDatasheet%20CPM%20S110Vv12010.pdf According to Crucible, the wear resistance [of s110v] is less than S90V. Incorrect! You're reading the chart backwards . Charts can be tricky that way. The chart vertical axis is Material LOSS, not wear resistance. Th...

yeah, keep telling yourself that! Maybe eventually you'll believe yourself.
