Spyderco Forums

I'm pretty ambivalent about the Tenacious, primarily due to the size. It's not quite small enough and not quite big enough, all at the same time if that makes sense. But put a Resilience in my hand and I'm a very happy camper.

Lovin' this mostly good-natured thread. Spyderco is walking the fine line between "give 'em something" and "give 'em nothing". There will be frustration either way.

Do they include micarta backspacers?

Crickets...

I would love to hear Sal weigh in on expanded use of the CBBL. This subject is frustrating for me because I love the Manix line and these requests for new CBBL models never seem to go anywhere. They just never seem to get any traction or attention.

Chief LW in SPY27 , Caly LW, and Lil Native LW

What the heck was in everyone's coffee this morning?

Eager to compare it with the G10 version. I've been holding off on trying SPY27 until this one drops. However, the recent release of the SPY27 UKPK has got me tempted...

Give that Super Blue some room to run. Longer edge on a Stretch XL would be about right.

But what if you're hunting both toads and cicadas? Combo edge? Need a group shot.

Nah, you just need another spiderpac.

K390 Delica Wharnie

Can't shake the mental image of a dozen or more forum members, Spydies firmly in hand, headlamps shining brightly, out for an evening toad hunt.

The Byrd SEs are going for a song on some discontinued sales right now. Saw Harrier 2 SE Wharnies for $26 or $27 at a couple of sites. Be a crime not to stash a couple away.

That's the one. It's a real beaver on cardboard. Takes an edge fairly easily and holds it for a decent amount of time. Vines and small green limbs are easy fodder.

Either a PE 3"-4" folder with a SE Manbug, or a SE 3"-4" folder with a PE Manbug. Plus there is always a Leatherman Skeletool in a kydex sheath on my left side, always.

I was holding off on my first SPY27 until the Native Chief LW release, but that UKPK in SPY27 is mighty tempting. I feel like suppressing these feelings might be unhealthy...

I've had good experience with S110V in multiple models. Once I've established the desired edge angle it becomes relatively easy to re-sharpen and I really haven't had any issues with chipping. Of course, I use my knives the way they were intended to be used.

Can't go wrong with the Spyderco Medium and Fine benchstones. The Ultrafine gets a little pricey though. Some diamond emulsion on a strop may get you the finished edge you want.

Really want to try M4 and I love the Endura platform, but that mint is like fingernails on a chalkboard for me. But still may pick one up for the denim micarta scales I've got coming from Ukraine.
