Re: Model request: Enuff in S7 steel

I think he/she is just a pedant. A look at their post history confirms as much. In regards to S7's toughness, I recall that Scott once shot one of his knives with a .41 Magnum. IIRC it bent the blade near the edge, but the second shot at that hit the spine hardly deformed it. Even at the edge though...

Re: Model request: Enuff in S7 steel

Spyderco has already gone to extremes in regards to edge holding and corrosion resistance, I don't see any reason not to do the same with toughness. Just needs to be a design that would benefit from such a steel. S7 is fun to work with. I've abused the **** out of that one I posted, having done thi...

Re: Model request: Enuff in S7 steel

I would love to see a Spyderco knife in S7, but I agree with others that there are better designs it would excel in than the Enuff. I've never seen that Spyderco Forester, but that looks like an excellent candidate. Hopefully, they would use thinner stock though, if they decided to make something in...

Cool to see the Native Chief LW getting so many edge options. I'll be grabbing a blacked out one in PE for sure - I love BD1N. At 3.1oz it must be linerless.
You and me both, brother. I have nothing but high praise for BD1N. It is stupid easy to sharpen and get hair poppin' sharp.

Re: product idea: Spyderco folding wood saw

I'm down for a Spyderco-Silky saw collab. That would be awesome. I'm not sure how it would improve it, but I'd buy one anyway.

Re: product idea: Spyderco folding wood saw

the idea that the blade in that Victorinox is remotely comparable in functionality to a Pacific Salt is a stretch. They both separate matter, but the Victorinox blade is thinner, hollow ground, and it weighs less. Still though, the Pac Salt might cut better, easier, faster, more comfortably and hav...

Re: product idea: Spyderco folding wood saw

Just throwing it out there....if we handled everything with the mentality of "why would I buy that when this exists" there is a very good chance this forum wouldn't exist and we wouldn't be knife enthusiasts since there is usually a better tool for any job a pocket knife can be used for. ...

Re: product idea: Spyderco folding wood saw

I chime in with this every time I see it raised. I have both the Spydersaw and the smaller Silky (as well as many others) with the similar blade length (several, actually). It's not even a close comparison. Everything about a Silky saw is better, and I'm a diehard Spyderco fanboy. I wonder if any of...

Re: Spyderco Mashup

Spyderco Military fixed blade (Rex45)
Spyderco Delica 4 fixed blade (k390)

Change nothing about the blade stock thickness or shape and nothing about the handle other than making it full tang with a distal taper which would require some more material obvs.

Ok first kerrcobra, that knife sounds frickin awesome! I will be looking it up first thing in the morning. Great find!

Second, what is the matter with you people? Salty, Abba, say it ain't so... Not you, not you too.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???

Lately the only thing that's been in my pocket at all is the Hogue Extrak. CPM M4, HRC 62-64, 0.08" blade stock, full flat grind, distal taper - the knife is like a lightsaber. The total handle thickness is only 0.28"; it just disappears into my pocket, and it comes with two sheaths - one ...
