Spyderco Forums

I've given my son in law a few Spydies over the years to include an engraved H1 Dragonfly that lives in his tackle box and a Delica that sees general use but the first one was a blue handled Endura.

He works in flooring and used it a lot to cut carpet,...

So while shopping for a birthday present (brothers 50th), I came across a Mantra 2 (NOS) at a local retailer. Price was $215, I think.

I'm a fan my Southard and was tempted to pick up the Mantra for myself, having already picked out my brother a...

Any word on the progress being made yet? Very excited to see what's in store once it's all up and running. Not intending to pry or ask for TMI, but I am curious what kind of capacity difference there will be after it is completed as I can't remember...

I swung by the official Spyderco website and saw a product reveal for the Endura 4 Wharncliffe in K390 steel. It appears to only be available in PE for now. If I hadn't just picked up an Endela in the same configuration I'd be all over this! Who's...

The last two Golden knives I’ve gotten (the REC Manix and the M4 shaman) have had unbelievable, razor sharp, reflective factory edges.

I’m trying to think back…I don’t remember them being like this before. I seem to remember my Z-wear Shaman and M390...

Today for me it the G-10 Cat!! John

If this is a duplicate thread.. Please delete..

As promised, here's your chance to scoop up my calendar contest prize. All you have to do is guess what knives are in my pic in the correct order (from left to right) and it's yours! I took pics of the process showing how I got the pic, so if you guess...

First off, I love LC200N. It is just amazing. I love the way the edge holds up due to toughness and how easy it is to tune up and it strops up like a dream. Secondly, it carrie’s well in my waistband. Tricely, It is an awesome design. I do pine for 1/2”...

New exclusive.

If you've been waiting for a K390 Delica in SpyderEdge... Your wait may be over. :party-face

Edit: gone for now

I would buy a S110V Shaman and a S110V Para 3 Lightweight.
Is there interest in these things?
Are there plans for these things, even if very far away?

Every week I see some really great pics on this forum so I thought we could have a weekly competition. The competition will last from Monday to Sunday and the winner and runner up will be announced on Sunday evening. The winner will be the judge for the...

Im starting this thread as an easy way to track my own findings/uses, and to maybe benefit others on the fence about which “big” Native brother to purchase.

I’ve always liked slicey knives for my folders and left the “hard” use up to my fixed blades....

Hello everyone. I'm Mike Blue. I mostly lurk here but after a discussion with Sal, I've been asked to post this subject and collect the thoughts of everyone willing to share.

Those of you who know Sal, may or may not know that he shaved with a straight...

Quick question. Loving my PITS. Can't get it out of my pocket. Has anyone put a Lynch clip on it yet? Really thinking about it. I typically love the wire clips but after getting a couple of the Lynch clip replacements, have been really impressed with how...

Hey guys, I found this auction; but I have no idea which model it is. It looks like Squeak, but it says it was made in United States, has compression lock and different clip than your regular Squeak. Or perhaps it is a fake? Please help me out identifying...

After 7 minuts shaking without soap

Chaparral will next 🙃

With deer season coming up its about all I can think about. I was wondering if anyone has ever used a Spyderco folder for any game prep/field dressing. Obviously a fixed blade would be the best for that kind of task, but let’s hear your stories about game...

Just what the title states. Is the Maxamet Military still in the works (or even a Maxamet Military 2)? Then, I'd also suppose I'd like to ask why or why not and how long or whether it will ever happen, but I don't want this to sound like I'm demanding...

I recently acquired a used, early Domino, with the funky cf pattern, fully anticipating the need for attention to the bearings etc. so this isn’t a complaint thread. The Domino design has long appealed to me.

Sure enough, the thrust washers are dished...

Would anyone be interested in Maxamet with DLC? It seems I can't carry it without small black spots showing up after a few hours. Bar keepers friend takes off most of what's visible but it always shows back up. My PM2 hasn't spotted since I polished it so...

I recently purchased a Delica and I am really enjoying how the thin blade cuts through objects with ease. It has really made me re-examine blade thickness for EDC tasks. I want to try some other thin spyderco blades. I read that the chaparral is thin and...

Hey yall! I was perusing on BHQ and came across a fully serrated Persistence lightweight in S35VN. According to the description, it was supposed to be made available in June of this year, but it appears it is still not available. Anyone know if and when...

Most of us are owning more then one knife and watch.Lets see the combo you realy love.
For me is the D4 and classic G Shock.
P.S.for the lucky ones who are enjoying the 2nd amendment from the most great Constitution on this planet- feel free to add your...

Hi all,

I've recently purchased a second hand Native 5 Fluted Carbon Fiber S90v. I'd like to clean the pivot and washers to smoothen the action a bit. I've removed the screws but I can't seem to pry apart the scales. While watching the Nick Shabazz...

Anyone else have multiple versions of the same model, one for use at work, another for personal carry? 90% of my folding knife use occurs at my job, so when I like a model, I will try to get a version of it for dedicated work use, often in a steel (such...

Trying to find a P'kal for months now. Nowhere to find. Can any send me the link where i can buy a new or like new?

Thx

Hey guys, I bought a Meerkat several years ago as a gift for a buddy and he loved that knife. Unfortunately he lost it last year and has mentioned several times how much he would like to replace it. I don’t really spend any time perusing the retailers...

With the recent return of the C-60 Ayoob model we all have a lot to be very thankful for. Because there are actually quite a few of us who love the old School Spyderco models. Personally I tend to focus on the time slot I like to refer to as the GOLDEN...

Recently I launched a thread asking you folks which 3 of the older models you all would like to see in a Sprint Run. The one model that just kept coming up over and over again was the C-60 Ayoob model. It just makes perfect sense to take a hard look at a...

I've been sharpening knives for about 30 years.

Most that time I took my edges to a high polish, generally finishing with highest grit I had available to me. I'd finish my edges with a Spyderco ultrafine benchstone or sharpmaker rods, then strop....

Surely a wharnie pac salt has to be on the horizon. Seems like the only hole in the salt line up right now, and IMO would probably be the best ounce for ounce cutting machine in the group. Would love a nice hollow ground h-2 in spyderedge..
Who's with...

Hi,

I'm looking into another Spydie. I have the PM2 and Manix XL which are flickable and a new sprint run of the Ayoob which is not. I have seen different youtube videos saying and showing that the Yojumbo is flickable and others saying it's not. Can I...
