Re: Sal, Can we get CPM 15v?

All info and updates certainly are welcome... its definitely getting a lot of us excited about 15V Does this involve a whole new knife design or are you putting 15V in an existing model? I sent Sal a CAD file with a folding knife design I created. Sal made a prototype of the design. This is especia...

Re: Delica K390

I also just picked up the Delica K390 from National Knives. I've ordered from them before.

This will be my 3rd Delica and my 3rd Spyderco K390. Its fantastic steel and I definitely do notice a difference from the S30V level of steels.

We have other models in the works, I can't be specific on which yet, but more are coming.


Hopefully a CruWear Lil Native is in the pipeline.

Re: The Para 3 LW: Features or “Bugs”?

I can't decide which one I like more, especially since I put micarta scales on my G10 Para3. You can't customize the LW like that. With each, they're better for different situations, especially in conjunction with the individual strengths of the two different steels that I own them with. With my Par...

Re: DLT Exclusive - Purple PM2 Cruwear

I've been wanting a black micarta PM2 for awhile. I'm really happy that DLT brought us CruWear. Its a perfect pairing.

I thoroughly enjoy freehand sharpening and CruWear is a dream. These knives are all users and part of my EDC rotation.

I've been struggling to obtain a high high level of sharpness on my SPY27 Para 3 LW. I'm one of those guys that chases bidirectional hair whittling edges. I keep getting close, but i i haven't been able to get my SPY27 edge as crisp clean and keen as I had hoped. Anyone have any SPY27 sharpening fe...

Re: Buying my first PM2: S30V or S110V?

K390 from Bento Box is also my recommendation unless you're convinced that you need stainless. If you live near saltwater, you might need stainless unless you're diligent with maintaining and lubricating your knife. While the intended usage is light, who knows what the future holds. Its comfortable ...

Re: DLT Exclusive - Purple PM2 Cruwear

Purple is certainly not my color, but as delivered it definitely looked nice. The day this knife was announced, I pulled the trigger on these black micarta scales.

Re: Your suggestions please

I'm not sure what's already in your collection but you cant go wrong with the classics such as the Lil Native and/or Dragonfly. If you want a little bigger, definitely the Native 5 or Delica

I missed it... this is a lesson that I thought I had already learned. Just because I dont want or need it now does not mean my opinion on it will be the same in 5 mins.

Re: Rex45 Copper PM2 Patina

Mine just got promoted from Safe Queen to EDC Rotation / Flick Toy and after 2 days I'm starting to notice a slight patina forming.

It does not show in this photo and this is the only photo of it that I have on this device.

I'm eager to get a real patina on it.
