Spyderco Forums

Yeah, sort of. To me, the quintessential Spyderco styling is evident in the lightweight Delica/Endela/Endura/Police knives. They have the handle, blade, lock, and ergonomics, that shout, "Spyderco!" The primarily differences are the size of each knife. But from afar, they look alike. What...

There have already been some nice suggestions my thoughts go towards an entry level Manix 2 Lwt . Hey, Joelc73 , I've got to agree here. The Manix 2 is very different with its caged ball bearing lock. It's super easy to use one handed, and is good in either the right or left hand. The blade is usef...

Stop being a tease. For a moment I was all excited thinking
Tom Hanks might have landed a role playing Nicolaus Otto.

Working on Sunday? Easter Sunday?
Good golly, you kids are a dedicated bunch!

I just discovered the BEST feature of the new Forum Update. We no longer need to futz around resizing images before we upload them!!! We can just upload the images as they are, no muss, no fuss. This is going to be GREAT for mobile phone users who might not have image editing tools at their fingert...

I'm carrying the same knife that I've been carrying for many weeks, a Stretch 2 XL in Cruwear. There's nothing fancy about it, it's just an all-around awesome knife. And in the spirit of the holiday, I'll share with you a picture of a sociopathic bunny named Bun Bun who carries a switchblade. I can...

A total of 13 new Spyderco Knife Models (see Post #1) have been delivered so far in 2024

Thanks! I didn't realize you were keeping a running update.
Nice work.

You guys got me curious about forum speeds on mobile devices. I browsed on over to the form using Safari on my iPhone. The speeds were fast, equal to what I get on my desktop computer. Then I tried the Firefox browser, and the results were the same. No problems from Behind The Orange Curtain.

I don't know if it is durable enough for a knife handle that would get used. It isn't like lacquer or polyurethane. Still, it would look really good. I know! But it's so "old school" that it's hard to resist. Most of my wood projects are finished in natural finishes: linseed oil, tung oil...

Thanks. That video has been in my YouTube suggestions, but I didn't watch it until just now. I like the Business Insider videos. Shellac intrigues me, but I've not used it on anything since I was a little kid. How do you think it would work out on wood scales for my next Mule?

[img]Our first bloom ! Dan Very nice. That one doesn't waste any time between poking up from the dirt and flowering. I shot some flowers in the yard last week. This one is my favorite. The foliage of the blue flax is tiny and subtle, as are the flowers, but they're spectacular if you take the time ...

Stick around. You'll get plenty of notice if you watch the forum.

I have one SPY27 OG Mule, but it's not in the field. It's in the kitchen. It's my go-to when I want a small knife. I have a couple other Mules that could assume that role, but there's nothing not-to-like about the SPY27.

My name is Bernhard, I'm from a small European country named Austria. I've been into knives my whole life, Welcome, Bernhard from Austria. We have another gentleman from Austria here, and he's an ok sort of bloke. I'm from a small city in a small county in a state on the West Coast of the U.S., and...

Microserrated blades are not my cuppa tea. just these are my serrated knives and my experience with them you could give anyone and they'd never have to sharpen it. You mind elaborating on why you dislike small serrations That's ok if they work well for you and you like them. You asked for our opini...

Microserrated blades are not my cuppa tea.
I need a plain edge for most things, and normal serrations when the need calls for it.

It's prettier the way it comes from the factory, but I can see why you would want to give it the "Delica Treatment." Or you could just wait until you push it too far, and it Delicas itself. Then you could just touch it up when you get home.

What is the best stuff I can apply to tool steel for long term storage? Something that wont break down, evaporate, or leave me with a rusted edge. Maybe some sort of heavier wax? Cosmoline. It's too messy for my purposes, but you asked. I've had guns that were coated many decades earlier, and they ...

The scales are lovely, but that iron table is pretty cool, too.
