Re: The Spyderco CULT CLASSICS Survey

If the two folks (out of 133) who took the survey multiple times are reading this: Your attempt to game the results is unethical, as well as unsuccessful. It was the Russians and the North Koreans creating fake accounts and trying to influence voters. They tried to steal the survey! What were they ...

Re: "Talkin' Story" with Mr. Sal Glesser

Sep 14, 2002 From the bladeforums.com Talkin' Story; I think one of the key words in Matriarch discussion is "last ditch". If you cut someone with a knife, you are more than likely going to go to jail. Whether or not you stay there is the question. Serg is offering sound advice. The Matri...

Re: 2023 Spyderco Product Guide - Now Live!

Awesome Catalog! Thank you Spyderco! :bug-red-white I'm just curious if anyone noticed that the same models in the same blade steels and handle materials sometimes have a bit different weight and blade length in the Catalog. And the ones with a bit shorter blades have a bit more weight, not the oth...

Re: Obscure But Yet Extremely Cool Past Models

The predecessors of the C90 Stretch are the C13 ProVenator and C33 ProGrip (later both - ProGrip). They are already back in an updated form, but they are beautiful in their own right. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52046567800_f8ee6c3505_o.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52046054151_fc4...

Re: Flatbyrd 2?

The disadvantage of polymer washers is their fragility. That's why I prefer bronze.

But polymers are different. I repeat, on my old school Military for 10 years, the washers have changed little.

Re: Flatbyrd 2?

Washers add 1 mm. If you abandon them and sink the caps of the axial screw into the handle, you can get a thickness of 5 mm. What if we add the washers but reduce the thickness of the handles ? :thinking The thickness of the dies of the Flatbyrd handle is 1.5 mm. If they have a thickness of 1 mm, t...
