Re: Blade hq dlc Manix 2 ordered!

That is so insane!
(1) What was the total # in this run?
(2) Has there been a Spyderco to sell out that fast before?

Any potential for Bohler S693 Microclean in a Spyderco?

I noticed that Bohler-Uddenholm has a S693 Microclean process steel, that is supposed to be their equivalent of M4 high speed tool steel with a slightly higher carbon content. I am curious how this Microclean PM steel would perform against the CPM steel, like a Microclean M390 vs CPM-20CV. Two diffe...

Re: Spyderco Maxamet Status Check

So..Word is the Paramilitary 2 Maxamet purposely isn't listed in the 2018 catalog. They are working out some issues with production, and the date of the next run is unknown. Source? I called Spyderco and asked them. It was the Factory Outlet that I spoke with. I don't like the sound of this. Especi...

Re: Trimmed a 16lb Brisket with my PMA11 Mule

Wow, when you said it hit ceramic and chipped, I was thinking it would be much worse. That is impressive that it only ended up with a tiny chip.

Re: Spyderco Maxamet Status Check

It has to be a mistake. There are multiple sources that have confirmed that it is a production model.

Re: Trimmed a 16lb Brisket with my PMA11 Mule

Yes, thanks for the feedback. I have a mule 26 that I haven't tested out yet, other than cardboard etc. I am going to try it out on my next deer. I have a friend who offered to sell me his maxamet mule, but for fixed blade uses, I think the pma11 will suit me better due to higher toughness.

Re: Maxamet PM2

Found some time today and reprofiled to 17dps... I'm far from an expert (mostly a novice), but I gotta say that this is some of the easiest steel to reprofile that I've sharpened. Reprofiled with 400 grit and ended with 3000 just cause it was so enjoyable. Seriously, S30v is harder to sharpen. The ...

Re: Spyderco Natural G-10 Manix 2 M4 Blade HQ Exclusives

I wonder if these will drop this year? I have only purchased one of the BHQ exclusives, Military M4 natural g10. Do you guys find there is a typical time range once BHQ exclusives are posted as a notify me option? 2 weeks to 12 months? Lol.
