Spyderco Forums

I have two from JWKnives and they are amazing. One fixed and one friction. Keep an eye on his site as they go super quick. Reasonable price and great service. And he used vintage scale materials. They hold and keep a fine edge. I’ve hacked wood with them and cut cardboard without needing to touch up...

A chopped up modified Opinel 6 carbon steel. Great for peeling and popping out pits.

Gathering some herbs with a GEC (Tidioute) 562218 Mustard Bone. Sometimes nothing beats a great traditional.

My 2024 Calendar Entry. The Spyderco Hossom Woodlander. Every time someone sees it, they are amazed. The quality, ergonomics, and just plain "vibe" of this fixed blade is unmatched. Not enough people know about it. And the Logo placement ain’t bad for a promo pic like a calendar. So, here ...

Flash Batch 'Lil Nilakka on some Special Edition Pencils:

More inexpensive users. When the work gets rough, time to pull out the old #10 Opinel Carbon Steel with a few tweaks - blade profile enhanced and lanyard hole drilled. It’s unbeatable for those dirty / gnarly tasks.

Old school. S&M File & Wire ATS 34. One of my favourites.

Old school (friction folder) with new school (the sharpest steel!). JW Knives and Tools. Amazing.

OG Umnumzaan - big pivot, weird tool, no lock bar stopper, no big words or logos. Basically perfect.

It’s a stout 3/16” but slices like a dream.

Magnacut Meridian Type S from J Woytaz. Can’t wait to play with this one.

Looks good! How thick is that blade?

Since you can't return, and probably shouldn't give it away if you think it isn't safe, try one last thing: Take it apart and GENTLY bend the frame lock arm inward. That way there will be more pressure into the blade when it's locked. Note: detente will be tighter, so knife may be a little harder to...

If you want old school leather and a great company can’t beat these:

Minimalist carry today. Weight vs Price this is maybe my most expensive: Amsler Mini Razor.

Grabbed something different. Deviant Blades Friction Folder (Spyderco Hole Licensed). Fun to grab older knives you forget about.

Persian for sure.

Peanut butter. Paper towel. Wipe away from edge. Food safe, metal safe, and you can snack while you work. I am really trying to reduce chemical use anywhere I can.

In a jam, if it’s a working knife, lighter fluid can’t be beat.

The original inspiration! Came across while digging for pics. Spot ground into a Swick.

Not a Spyderco (although I’ve done some). But here’s an extreme one:
