Spyderco Forums

I'm a life-long pocket stone user. I have the Pro-Files, but don't use them much. My most used are a 4" Eze-Lap and the Fallkniven DC-4. I maintain the edges on mt EDC's with a 4" homemade strop.

I need to get a Spyderco pocket stone...

The Manbug seems to have taken up residence in my pocket.

From what info I've found, it is a HSS and NOT stainless. That rules it out for me. I'll just keep pressing for a plain ol' orange FRN Manbug.

I'm not familiar with HAP40...how's the stain resistance?

Of all the knives shown, the ARK and colored Roadies are calling to me. I really like the orange and grey Roadies, and the blue and red ain't too bad either. :cool:

Did I mention how cool an orange Manbug would be? :D :spyder:

I tried a fob again today.....and it still gets in my way. I have no trouble opening it one handed without one.
That's the beauty of having a lanyard hole. You can use it, or not. Regardless, this is one sweet little knife. :spyder:

About 1/2". The Urban is smaller.

...and I'd like to take this opportunity to lobby for the Manbug in orange FRN... :cool:

I have a love/hate thing going with fobs...I love the idea of being able to pull it from a watch pocket easier, but hate that it hinders maneuvering the knife in my hand. I usually go fobless.

Thanks for posting the link. :cool:

My experience with ZDP-189 (DFly2) has shown me that it's not a great steel option for me. I prefer something a little easier to touch up (when needed) and with more corrosion resistance. I do love the BRG color though. :D

I have been carrying the Manbug (black FRN/PE) since receiving it a week ago. To say it has impressed me is an understatement. I have always been a fan of smaller knives. The Ladybug is a modern classic. I could never warm up to it completely. There are a few things about it that are a little "...

Manbug and Dragonfly.

Liking the Roadie colors. I might have to pick up 1 or 2 (or 3) of them somewhere down the line.

Plain edged and sharp. :D

I don't have a lot of experience with N690Co...yet. But from what I've seen so far, it's a top notch performer.

I've had no issues with Seki made knives.

The Manbug....it is proving to be everything I wanted the Ladybug to be. It's truly amazing how some very slight differences can make all the difference in the world.

I can only say good things about VG-10. :spyder:
