SUPER BLUE/SUPER STEELS AND RUST?
I've been carrying a new Dragonfly Super Blue as an EDC for the past 4-6 weeks. It's had considerable pocket time but not a whole lot of actual blade use. I noticed today that there are two small spots of corrosion on different parts of the blade. I never had this issue with any of my Spyderco EDC k...

BIG thanks to all for their helpful comments, except for Mjc1973's about sending the wounded Techno to him--although the free shipping offer was thoughtful :) I tried the simplest approach first and it worked. That was to loosen the pivot screws on opposite sides. The first time I did it the blade w...

Techno Technical Help
I always disliked the blue backspacer on my Techno--thought that particular shade of blue cheapened a superb knife. Just personal taste... Anyway, I got a Cuscadi backspacer (kind of a clear jade yellow/green) and swapped it out with the blue one. The Cuscadi fit perfectly and I only had the knife a...

The Caly Jrs (and 3s) are my all-time favorite Spyderco knives. I think the Sprint run of gray FRN Jrs a few years back were incredible, and the vintage micarta version is still total class. Re a Sprint run: I would love to see a toxic/lime green H1 version in both PE and SE--especially because of t...

+1 on all the above stores. Also add Martin B. Retting, a gun shop on Washington Blvd (near Sepulveda) in Culver City. Not a huge selection but a pretty good one. I've never been downtown to Ross but it's going to be a field trip soon. Remember they just moved down the block and are no longer in the...

I have a SE Cricket Tuffram in my EDC rotation and I like it a lot. It disappears in my pocket and excels at opening clamshell packaging and cartons. As much as I'd like to carry a hawkbill like a Tasman or a Byrd G-10 Crossbill (if I actually could find one), I also live in LA county and am a bit u...

I can't imagine why the G-10 Crossbill was discontinued either--other than maybe SS is less expensive to produce. Hard to second-guess Spyderco, but it would seem to me that in a knife with a blade shape best suited for marine use non-slip grip would be of utmost importance. And G-10 is considerably...

Very late to the Amsterdam party, but I'd like to add my thanks to Wouter for what has become my most anticipated thread of the year. Also, thanks to Jazz for the condensed version of Wouter's fantastic photos--makes it easier to drool only in one place. And I thought I was swearing off buying any n...
