Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

Black G10, maybe with some edge bevels to more closely resemble the original? Anything other than black just doesn't seem quite right but who knows. Maybe in M390? S30V?

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!

OpticsPlanet's CS has taken a very sharp turn for the worse since this whole pandemic thing kicked off. They were always slow to fulfill/ship and to respond to emails, but at this point you're lucky if they reply at all.

Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

Sorry if this info is available elsewhere and I just can't find it, but does anybody have a sense of the production numbers for the original Ayoob? I know they only made it for a couple of years, with the G-10 sprint years later, but was just curious how many of the originals are floating around out...

Re: Tell us about your Spyderco Knife of the Year 2020

I can’t say enough good things about my Spydiechef. What a great knife. It’s earned lots of pocket time in 2020.

Re: 2020 Seconds Sale - BREAKING NEWS

Happy to be here. It hasn’t been long - the online seconds sale pulled me in - but in the short time I’ve been here it’s become clear to me that Spyderco is a fascinating, well run, and well loved operation. This community and your active participation in it speak volumes.

Just received my order - para 3 and native in maxamet. Both look surprisingly good. Only thing I could see was each slightly favoured the show side.
With 2 maxamet blades on the way this is the post I was waiting to see. Fingers crossed.

Another popped up on their site, this one a little more reasonably priced.
Aaaand it's gone.

If you bought a Second expecting it to be perfect, well that's all on you. I won't be disappointed at all if my Waterway shows obvious flaws.
Nobody expected perfection, but there’s lots of ground between perfection and a blade that comes back to you when you throw it. :D

Re: How Do Your Factory Seconds Look?

Hmm. That seems like more than a minor aesthetic flaw. My brother got one of those...hoping it’s not quite that for his sake. Agreed, that looks to be more than cosmetic/aesthetic. I grabbed a Maxamet PM 2 from the sale too. This thread ruined my day but I'm still hoping it doesn't look like that w...
