I have noticed this on many Spyderco models over the years.Huge price spike then a fast drop off.Seems lately the newly disc. models bring the highest price then quickly drop in price over time.

I put 375 rds. through her already and cleaned it once. No problems. Every shot fired perfectly. No stovepipes, No FTE, No FTF, nothing. Perfect. I shoot Federal 180gr FMJ's. In the pictures you see Speer Gold Dot 180gr. JHP's. I chose the Gen 3 over the Gen 4 because I couldn't warm up to the back...

I just picked one up last week.Traded my Colt defender in on it,with boot to me.I really like 1911s and still have a full size Kimber but with shooting left handed I felt the Glock would be a much more reliable carry gun. I just put night sights and a grip plug on mine,I will most likely put a SS gu...

For my liking Spyderco is going to thin on many knives.
I was very excited about the CF Native but after having it in hand I found it to be to thin.
Please think about bulking up a few models.

I think I have found a new favorite knife.I know its Benchmade and this is Spyderco's forum,I am not a huge fan of BM but the Ritter Grip is a nice knife. My reason for posting is finding myself thinking of what Wilkins cou...

Knifeforums and Candlepower are great free ones.

IMO Bladeforums is best.
USN is good but they have a higher member fee and only other paying members can look at the cove.
People do not have to pay to buy from you on bladeforums.

Take it to a auto body shop and ask them to bead blast it for you.

Use 1 part bleach to 32 parts water.That will kill anything on it and not hurt anything.
