Re: MT32P - SRS13/SUS405 Mule Team - Release Date

I'm fine with the limit of one. The decision is very understandable given the low volume of this run, planned before the current demand was known. The Mule program is such an amazing anomaly to start with!

Re: Para 3 Lightweight

Just to add to the anecdotal samples - mine came with no blade wobble and a free action. Less than a millimeter off center. I tweaked the screws a little to see a slight improvement in centering, but it really wasn't necessary - I have knives with washers on both sides that are further off. The pivo...

Re: The most "standard" spyderco pocket knife in 2022 ?

Depends on your hand size as well as your preference how big of a blade you enjoy using for a variety of tasks, and how much weight you want to carry, I'd say that the Endura, Endela, and Delica are all considered "the standard" by many, but you would have to choose the size you prefer. I...

Re: Warranty woes

Every workplace I have been in, or heard of, is stretched thin after the past 2 years. Everyone is at least a bit burnt out. This goes double for public-facing jobs. I'm not surprised they're behind.

I have a new PM3 I'd like to warranty, but I'll wait a few weeks.

no double wrap, maybe the others have fewer cords inside?

It looks good! I might try this with additional wraps of cord between the holes in the tang (as in your first photo) to see how girthy I can get it.

Nice thick wrap there. Looks twice as wide as other pics here, yet it doesn't appear that you double-wrapped it?

Re: 2022 Knives for 2023

1.) Para 3 lightweight Salt, preferably in bright green with CPM Magnacut blade. I have to imagine this is coming, just a matter of when. 2.) Para 3 G-10 with a wharncliffe blade, preferably in forest green G-10 3.) Para 3 “lightweight” with anodized aluminum handles, sorta similar to the recent bl...

Re: Extra info about the new SRS13/SUS405 steel

I did a search for SRS13 and SRS15 on this forum and came up with some good context. Honestly, the website we are currently posting on may have more info on the steel than anywhere else, at least online in English!

Re: CPM MagnaCut | Edge Performance

The effort that went into this is clear, as are your explanations. Makes sense to say "run it harder" given your own prior experience. Now I'm certainly interested in how much harder they'll treat the production Magnacut PM2's. I agree that this is great stuff, thanks for going to the trou...

Re: Upcoming: GP Knives Native 5 LW DLC Rex 45 white FRN exclusive

Oh man, I’m budgeting for one knife this first half of the year. Deciding between this and the magnacut N5 will give me grey hairs… Maybe the drop dates can decide for me! Can anyone say how the white FRN holds up in use? I remember that was a concern in the Para 3 thread. Those nooks and crannies ...
