Re: Spyderco Natural G-10 Manix 2 M4 Blade HQ Exclusives

Just pre ordered that gorgeous DLC version......I figured 6 assorted Manix 2s had me covered.....I guess not!!
I'm carrying the s90v Cutlery Shoppe exclusive along with the Cruwear version! Guess I just can't get enough of this model!!

Re: Where Spyderco Knives Fall Short

Never really understood why so many complain about the blade to handle 'problem' with the Para 2.
I carry and use one quite a bit, and have NEVER wished for 1/8" more blade.
Come to think of it......that knife cuts pretty darn well with that extremely short blade and that huge handle!!

Re: Back After a Few Years... Thoughts on LW Knives.

After a few years away from the forum I'm back. The Kris, Persians and Shabaria all gone to cover vet bills. Some days I regret it, but it bought me more time with my faithful companion. On a brighter note, I just received my first Spyderco knife after many years. Two in fact; an orange Native LW a...

Re: Quick silly question about the Sharpmaker video..

I kinda remember reading here that they are hired actors.
Was a while ago though.

Watched that vid a bunch of times and I'm really glad I did.......Spydie serrations sharpen up nicely with Sal's way.

Re: Why does Spyderco pin certain knives?

I felt the same way for quite a while......until I got a couple of pinned Spydies. I have a Pac Salt, a Native LW, a few pinned Manix 2s and a Caly CF ZDP. I can say they are some of my smoothest Spydie's and none of them have ever needed any adjustments. All arrived centered and have stayed that wa...

Re: The Advocate - An Official Statement from Spyderco

I have had the un re vamped version for around 6 months. The knife has been amazing from day one.....truly. It flips most excellently. Locks up stupid tight. And best of all it slices like a laser. I haven't adjusted anything and have carried and used it plenty. The knife is a joy and you guys are ...

Re: Time for New, More Advanced Spyderco Pocket Clips

The only thing that bothers me in regards to the clips is the black painted ones......like on the Domino.
After a couple
Weeks of carry the clip looks 10 years old.
A better and longer lasting finish would make me happy.

Re: what screwdriver to use?

Hmmmm. Pretty sure my common sense is ok, but I'll check it to make sure.
The one I had from HD twisted the bit in the driver the first time I used it.
But again, maybe my common sense wasn't functioning that day.
