Spyderco Forums

I was just looking at the description of the SpyderHawk on Spyderco's website, and it says the knife can be retrieved from a pocket- opened- used- closed- and returned to a pocket all with one hand.

So how does a person close a lockback with one hand?...

Fellow Spyderfolks...

I would like to now if it is possible to upgrade an SS handle with thin gold sheets, or how would you guys engolden your SS handle

Well,today was a good day for me. Got my New Grahams order. Picked up an Endurahawk and completed my CF Police set with a pair of lefthanders. I was pretty well chuffed when I popped open the PE's blade and saw it was serial #001! W00t! Not sure if I got...

I recently washed my jeans with my knife in them and when they were in the dryer the screws came loose and the clip came off my knife. I was able to find the clip and two screws but I am still missing one. I tried going to the hardware store but they...

The Spyderbug has bit again as I've just aquired a NIB Centofante with the secure lock. What do you all think of this model...I'm sure loving it!

Dear Spyderfolks,

Anyone familiar with such kits? I'm sure that they are fun to fiddle around with. If Spyderco is to produce a DIY kit, which is the knife of your choice?

I'm looking at buying a Salsa Ti

Does the Salsa Ti have the salsa on the one side just like the other salsa models?

All the photo's I see of the Ti show the lock side.

I don't know anything about titanium.

Thanks,...

I was thinking about which Spyder I use the most....and almost thought about selling/trading off all of the others in my collection since I use my Military CE so much.

The Military is so well constructed, IMHO, that actually using it for real cutting...

I just received a LNIB Starmate from a trade(thanks, Jeff ), and although I really love(and ALWAYS carry) my Military CE, I'd like to carry my new Starmate for occasional EDC as well. BUT,...how can a SpyderKnut possibly decide between these two excellent...

Sal,

I adore your knives. The only problems I encounter is the fact that a lot of your smaller knives don't have thumb ramps and that makes them somewhat slippery. My Endura and Navigator have those curves on the back of the blade for my thumb but, it's...

I've been keeping an eye out for a G10 Harpy for some time now. I tried Linda, then most other sources - no luck. Finally one appeared, NIB on EBay.

I expected good bidding, but the SpyderHawks must be taking all of the action. As it was, NOBODY bid on...

Tired of big folders? Here's a suggestion - the Gentlebug My smallest folder so far. Fitted with an oversized hole (almost as big as a Delica's), compression lock, backspacers, G10 scales and steel of your choice It may come even with a clip!

Hi all

What is the heat treating proces for VG-10?

I'm looking at buying a Catcherman.

I would like to buy a yellow. The only yellow one I have seen so far was on ebay and the starting price was just about double of what I can buy a black one for.

Are yellow ones that much harder to find?

Thanks,...

Looks like I will be getting a Spdyerco Goddard Lightweight in a trade.
