The Cricket is a winner for opening packages. I have a black nishijin PE Cricket in my pocket today.

Re: Spydercos you sold, only to purchase again?
GB1
I thought it was too heavy and gave it to a friend. About a year later, I saw a deal on one and picked it up. Glad to have it.

Re: What was your first Spyderco?
In the mid 90's I had a harpy which lived in my left rear pocket. Normally carried it with a BM Boguszewski Mini Spike. I remember losing it while riding my bike on Broad Street in Philadelphia during rush hour when it pulled out my pocket and was gone forever. I carried the MiniSpike for about a de...

Re: Input on which salt knife
Unless legally bound to shorter knives, I would go with the larger PacSalt knife over the Salt 2.

Re: 2019 Catalog Live!
This is the first time I have been really disappointed with the catalog.
At least Spyderco won't have to raise the price of the new release knives in the catalog with the large annual increase before they are available to the public.

Re: 52100 vs other tool steels
I really like 52100. The only issue I have with it, just like super blue and other carbon steels, is that the edge starts to corrode and degrade very quickly after use (food etc). I gave up polishing it for a nice toothy edge (chosera 800). It isn't as laser sharp, but it holds a good working edge l...

Re: Your Spyderco Thanksgiving EDC
Most likely it will be my HAP40 Caly 3.
It has been hogging most of the pocket time recently. It will be a low key day.

Re: Spyderco Caly: I admit it, The Caly is superb.
As long as the FRN doesn't make it too portly, I am all for the FRN Caly.
I honestly hope it is integrated in the whole Endura, Stretch, Delica, Dragonfly, et al... posse. It would be nice to have some sprints down the road.

Re: Models That Absolutely DESERVE Sprint Runs
There are few others that I think would be nice to have available. JD Smith - K390 or 52100 would be great, but solid HAP40 would be alright as well. Denim micarta scales to finish it off. Breeden Captain - Not overly picky about the blade steel or G10 color, but I would like to see it with an SE re...

Re: Models That Absolutely DESERVE Sprint Runs
A HAP40 Caly 3.5 with the same green G10 from the 3" model would make me happy.

Not a crazy deal, but the sliverax has been 146 on amazon the last few days. About as cheap as I have seen them.

Re: Lightweight frn caly 3 & 3.5
I haven't seen any mention of a FRN Caly 3, just that Sal was testing a pre-production prototype to try and figure things out.
Hope it is brought to market, but nothing concrete yet.

Re: What's your favorite little-big Spyderco?
The Light Weight Chapparal wins for me. The k390 Urban is another good one. I have a few, but have never been a big fan of the dragonfly.

Re: Combo Edges Truly Getting A Bad Rap IMO
I carried a number of combo edged knives in the 90s when that seemed like it was all I could get. I still have a CE Stretch that belonged to my father, but I am not a fan of the CE. I would rather it be full SE or PE, not both. In my opinion, this is a case where the whole (CE) is less than the sum ...

Re: Just placed my order for my Military.
Congrats. The Military is a great knife.
When I first received mine, I was shocked at how big it was. After a while it doesn't seem so bad.
Enjoy.
