Spyderco Forums

Does your starmate have the issues that most seem to? I just got one in a trade and it has all the usual suspects. Rattling lanyard hole, unfinished ricasso, no bug on the clip. Fit and finish are poor, but it's still a solid knife. I'm glad I got it. I had one when they first came out that had no ...

I just got confirmation that my Double Bevel is shipping today :D Anyone else have one on the way? I can't wait to test this out. It looks like a refined CQC7 with the rectangular grip and American tanto blade style. Not sure if I'll like the two different grinds or not yet. I've been carrying my St...

With all the increased interest in the "Survival" and "Prepper" groups currently growing at an exponential rate I'm wondering if Spyderco has possibly considered a sharpening tool or kit for that market. I'm mainly taking about a possible sharpening product that would be great f...

The other Bob T's were Teflon I think. You hoping not Teflon? I think that the Starmate has Nylatron washers, like Bob T made popular. I don't really like the paper thin bronze washers that come on the Endura and Delica and Police III and Lava etc. but it's better than no washer I guess. I really l...

Sal,

Can you please share what kind of washers will be on the soon-to-be-released (I hope :D ) Double Bevel?

Thanks,

Matt

I've been looking at tactical folding knives from various manufacturers recently and I'm wondering why Spyderco hasn't made any inroads into this area! I'm thinking of Stretch Blade Profile, at least at the rear portion of the blade, with a flipper! I have a Southard, but the Stretch profile would ...

Anyone else interested in a Blackhawk 2? I've never seen one, before googleimaging it due to this thread. I would definately get one, or two, if there were a Blackhawk sprint run, so long as they leave it alone. I don't think that the Native handle would work, the reason it goes so well on the Nati...

Does anyone legitimately feel they need more than VG-10 or s30v for their daily use? I'm guilty of getting caught up in the sprint run shuffle, but I'll be the first to admit that I don't "need" s90v edge retention or 3v strength in my daily knife use. What are your thoughts on this topic...

Anyone primarily keep to one brand for sharpening reasons? Not this, but... If you're worried about being able to use your Sharpmaker, there are several companies whose knives will work just fine with it. Al Mar, Benchmade, Zero Tolerance, Kershaw, and many other production folders should all be ab...

It took me a long, frustrating time to realize that I was pushing to hard on the sharpmaker...

Anyone else share this mentality? When I was broke I found that I could get by with a Ladybug, Delica, and Endura. Times are better now, and I regret selling almost every knife I've ever had the pleasure of owning. I didn't use them all, but being able to take them out and play with them whenever I...

So I'm planning on sanding the scales of my camo/satin PM2 to get that awesome naked G10 look Are you just going to remove the texturing on the G10? Sounds interesting, please share pictures when you're done! I'm not sure you'll even need to drill the G10 at all, the Para2 I'm wearing today shows t...

Anyone know when these are supposed to be available?

I was handling my other Terzuola designs (Starmate, M30, CQB1) and am really looking forward to this one :o

Aren't S30V and S35vn VERY similiar? As I understand it, S35VN is the solution to S30V's chippiness. I have chipped a thinned out S30V edge carving wood, while my S35VN Bravo 1 has been absolutely abused and has never given cause for concern. Maybe it's in my head, but I like S35VN more. I think it...

A month with the dyed G10 and still no blue is showing. There's a few scratches, from dropping it while opening packages or from something metal in my pocket (probably another knife :D ) but it is still as black as black can be.

1. Tim Zowada, could be pink, I don't care I just want one
2. Lava with black G10
3. Worker wtih black G10
4. Para 2 with S35vn blade and black G10

Are all variants a little different? Due to size? Due to "budget" materials/processes of Tenacious? G10 "feel" is dependent on the finishing. The criss cross and other textures that many manufacturers, I assume, are done by machine. Raw G10 can be flat but grippy or flat and sli...

MachSchnell wrote:I'm interested in the design, but not in the price point. The g10 delicas, enduras, and the brown calypso sprint were all under $180 street price.

Weren't they right around $100?

Does anyone know how much these should cost? I think MSRP was $280, and I've seen pre-orders for $180ish which seems very high for a sub 3" folder made out of G10 and VG10. I imagine that this is due to the weak dollar vs the yen? It looks pinned and I'm thinking this sprint will be made by the...

Thanks for all the help guys :)

I'll update when I get something....
