Spyderco Forums

Stretch XL is at the top of my list.

Hey Lance, I guess you could buy some, sign them and sell them? Or have customers send them to you to sign, but being where you are, that could be problematic. I use an engraver that Tim Leatherman gave me to sign blades. sal Hey Sal, I’ve done that a few times for friends on this forum but yeah, i...

Thanks for sharing , my thoughts are exactly in line with yours . I’m glad they introduced this version so in the future there should be more demand in another saltwater variation . MG2 I know some people might think it weird (given that the Siren is a Salt knife) but my second most desired sprint ...

ETA?

Man, I have ZERO idea on that. I do know that this was an early sample so it could be awhile yet. Hopefully not months or anything or I might get in trouble for posting pics.

Sooo, I received an early sample of the S90v Sprint and thought I would share a few initial impressions and a photo. I’ll try to do my best to set aside any bias and offer some objective thoughts. First though, here’s a quick photo in the wild. https://i.imgur.com/twYrnDu.jpg First thing I noticed w...

If I’m carrying a single serrated knife as a dedicated EDC then I prefer slightly less pointy/aggressive for the versatility. If I’m carrying a serrated blade as a secondary blade for a few very specific tasks I might prefer the pointier tips.

I cut real things...not paper I'm not quite sure why you're so against making the scallops work to your advantage? That's kind of like saying I'd rather use a dull knife than a sharp knife. Would you say a rope, a strap, a catgut or a fresh bread are real things ? Just curious… Sometimes grabbing t...

How corrosive is zombie blood? Do we really know? Maybe Rock Salt or Waterway. Modified whale release blade?

He does when he's drunk.

I microbevel all my edges. The main reason is ease of sharpening and edge maintenance. Once I have my primary bevel set, I can bring my edge back to hair popping sharp in about 10-20 seconds on the Sharpmaker. If you are hitting a true microbevel then it only takes 6-8 passes to bring a edge back t...

I couldn’t even figure it out with the red marks showing me what I was supposed to be looking at.

That photo was a lot of work. Glad it made the calendar. Like I said earlier, that’s one of the most “syderco-ey” photos I’ve seen submitted. Tight work!

My Manix is about 11-12 degrees per side with a tiny 15dps microbevel. I’ve used it off and on as my regular edc for a couple of years and have never seen ANY edge damage. Very easy steel to sharpen too. The edge retention to ease of sharpening ratio of this steel is excellent.

For my uses (fishing, beach, kayaking) the only ways to improve the Siren are to make the scales a bright color , and the steel MagnaCut. I'm not even sure I'd prefer that over LC200N. The linerless, checkered G-10 of the current model is perfect, except that it's too dark. I can see how this new m...

Call me crazy, but I don't get an S90V Siren. Yeah, I know all about S90V, so someone explain the logic in this to me. Please. Magnacut I could understand. S90V...nah. I think anybody who uses one is going to find corrosion, and probably sooner rather than later. The edge will hold a long time, but...

So, did the friend order one?

He didn’t. He might have thought I was going to take a hint and get him another since I’m the “Spyderco guy”. Unfortunately his gift did not come with loss replacement insurance.

I had another look and this is harder than I thought. I’m posting my guesses just for fun but I’m really spitballing on most of them. Again, NOT AN ENTRY, just wanted to play.

Spyderhawk
Military
Caribbean
Subvert
Shaman
Manix?

Congrats to Mushroom and everyone else who participated. Thank you Spyderco for giving us the chance to be involved and enjoy this every year!

I’ve got some pretty good guesses based on both blade shapes and the knives I know you own. I’m not playing but I’ll write mine down just to see if I was close. Congrats on the great photo. That’s a how to say Spyderco without saying Spyderco photo if I’ve ever seen one.
