Spyderco Forums

Although I'm not a fan of Facebook... The knife groups on there are legit. I have bought, sold and traded dozens of knives. You can join the Spyderco group, but I highly recommend: "Every Day Blades", and "Knife Trading Sales & Feedback". Just be sure if you're buying from so...

A part of me was going to try for one as I love the chase... But I had an amazing night last night and jist woke up haha. I hope some people who really wanted one scored, and if not Shabbaz confirmed there will be more. DON'T FEED THE SCALPERS!

Correct me if I'm wrong... But wasn't the original MSRP of the Bowie in the 200s? I've only known the crazy exuberant aftermarket prices. In 2014 which was a long time ago and before MAP and all the price increases it had about a $280 street price. I think MSRP was $500. I have handled the Slysz mu...

It is overhyped in my opinion. I never understood it. When it was available it received a decent amount of criticism. Obviously if it was a great seller it wouldn’t have been discontinued. The main complaint was price which is interesting because this will obviously cost way more. It just goes to s...

Matriarch 2 forsure just based off of cutting performance and the light package it's in.

I'm down to see this happen... I bought the Bushcraft when it was discontinued. It's still my outdoor woods / camping knife and I've been nothing but impressed. It was lightsaber sharp out the box... And even after doing wood work / general tasks. She's still really sharp... I got a light patina goi...

Before relase the Smock was SUPER hyped. There were a lot of delays and some folks got impatient... But once it released it blew eveeyonyes expectations out the water. I ended up selling mine to a coworker far below msrp. He really liked it and I wanted him to have his first high end Spyderco. To th...

Boys... It's freaking happening. This is a day I thought I'd never see. I'm baffled but excited this is awesome!

Nooo freaking way!

I really got into Spyderco in 2017 and at that time the Slysz Bowie was ultimate hype. They were selling for 700 to 800 bucks easily... If this is true... this will literally be the drop of the 21st century. Websites will crash, monitors smashed and cities burned...

Shaman is twice the knife the Para 2 is. Change MY mind. Support your claim. My mind isn't changed. If the Shaman was 180 Id probably buy one. Do you mean to say you'd spend 300 on a s30v Shaman? Whoops :rolleyes: The Shaman in my opinion is worth it because it handles every cutting task flawlessly...

Also.... I will say a knife fight, or any street fight is the the last thing you want. As the old saying goes: "The winner of a knife fight goes to the ER, and the loser get's buried". As a fellow Californian I do carry a knife for many reasons, and it's nice to know I have it as a backup ...

I will say anything can be used as a lethal weapon if you are creative... This reminds me Musashi's famous duel that he showed up 3 hours late to with only a "Carved spare oar", and won. "The blood drained from Kojiro’s face as Musashi slowly stood up in the boat. The insolence, it wa...

I love it when exclusives are available for more than 5 minutes. Wish they all sold like this. I have no doubt they will sell all of them, and everyone who really wanted one has had a chance. I hope this is a sign of companies taking Spyderco's urging to place larger orders. 👍🏻 It is nice when a dr...

Will have to wait and see how it’s received in the North American market, but it’s worth pointing out that it’s the most expensive “value folder” (at least that I’m aware of) and overlaps in price with some non-value models. Granted, the non-value pieces are mostly in S30V or VG-10 but an S110V UKP...

I won't be surprised if Sal lives to be over 100 :cool: Sal and Eric are pretty much the faces / spokespersons for the company (to me). They have the upmost passion for their products, and the knowledge to back it up. For all we know the lil red Spyder will still be running around after we're all lo...

I'm surprised life isn't illegal in California because it eventually leads to death. :confused:

Happy I had the Sharpmaker shipped to me, I'll try not to eat the brass.

Eyyy another local Spyerhead, hello to you good sir! I'm a contractor born and raised in the Silicon Valley. My grandparents owned a dairy in the South Bay long before any tech was in the area. Nope! Unfortunately I left Silicon Valley in the 1st quarter of 2002, and drove to Stockton, where I live...

-Variety is the spice of life- I think that's the main reason I like colors, but I don't actively seek them out... BUT with that said I do own some pretty colorful knives lol. I agree it makes them more pleasing to the eye, and some instances less intimidating BUT the function doesn't change. My pur...

This could be the result of a CQI change where the PM2 and some others are changing from S30V to S45VN. **** I really must of been under a rock during the pandemic... I didn't know they were transitioning! To be fair I'm still really happy with s30v and I think the change is mostly to appease the &...

I haven't even tried to take apart my Shaman..makes me nervous to try. The last US made knives I've bought were all Native 5's and they've come apart fine. I wonder if this is just an individual getting a little over excited during assembly? My Caribbeans were absolutely caked with white colored th...
