Also bear in mind that our obtuse and idiotic laws distinguish between carry and transportation . Carry is very restricted. You Can ca...

Re: Discontinued For 2018 - OFFICIAL List

They will also need to push over new high end flagship, I understand the decision:I guess the bowie sells well but they cannot have new model that are very similar in the destination market, it will kill The new product.

Happy to see new models. But now my expecations went up!

Re: Hi Sal, please DO NOT FORGET EUROPE for the best Sprint Runs

I dont know why, my local retailer is very competitive on benchmade and zero-tolerance compared to USA. I mean they are like 20% more and that is fine. But a delica is 115 euro Vs 60 euro shipped to my door from the us. Sad to say I have to buy away. I am in italy, and I would love to support more m...

Re: Time for New, More Advanced Spyderco Pocket Clips

Am I the only one that thinks that it will be quite smart to add other functions to the clip besides the clip function?
I mean... It will be stupidly easy to have a clip that is also a bottle opener for example. I mean that piece of metal can become much more.

Re: Do you use the brass guard rods with the sharpmaker?

Always use them, allthough I never run my knives against it. My biggest concern with the sharpmaker is when I am refinishing to ultra fine and I am very light I might loose hold of the knife and accidentaly cut me while hurring to recover hold of the knife... Funny..
