What is it?

Is the ATS-55 of lesser quality? Would it be suitable quality for rescue work?

I've got a machette that needs sharpening. How do you sharpen it? It's too big for my 204. Do I put it on a grinding wheel like my mower blades? File? Stone?

Thanks,

Gary

Does anyone here know if the pink Delica's are still avaialble from John F Jensen? If so, can anyone comment upon their specific blade style?

OK, this is what I'm wondering. Do they ALL have the old serrated blade pattern, where there is an equal...

A couple of weeks ago I purchased a Calypso

Hello all,

I just read a post from ScottK on BF:

He was inquiring about the availability of the highly anticipated Ocelot and stumbled upon some info about the Spyderco Tracker due out in May, apparently confirmed by Wegner's camp.

Carlos or Sal,...

I guess these are supposedly out, but every source I've seen only has the ATS-55 bladed version available. Does anyone know of a source for the VG-10 Civvie? By the way, is ATS-55 a better choice for this knife anyway?

I know this has been touched on in another thread, but I thought it deserved a heading of it's own

Yup, I finally got to go down to Texas. My sister graduated from school down there yesterday, so my family and myself drove down Wednesday night at 10:00 pm and got to Dallas around 4:00 pm on Thrusday. Not bad for a couple of teenagers, eh? We just got...

Hi

Anybody else from SA on this Forum?

Pertinax

I picked one up from a dealer on the web and it arrived a few days ago - brand new, SE, a version discontinued by while the PE is still available. That is one impressive folder!

Why did I get it? It was a bargain and I'm cheap. For under $50, I figured...

Hi Samo,

Where do you get them all? I was under the impression that many would be illegal in KL. Do you travel to other countries to add to your...

Hello guys I just bugth my 1st spyderco.

I have to say it was very hard to decide but I finally did. I got an endura II 50/50 hope I made a good choice.

Can anyone tell me if this is a good knife to own, I want a multi purpose knife thanks.

How cool is this one.I just found it in nearly excellent condition,but there's a little blade play closed(rattling),from repeated opening the coating or bushing wore,is there anything Spyderco could do for me.I found a great ENC with very minimal coating...

I was just curious...Does the SPyderco Military fit the bill as a MBC knife? It seems to go way beyond just being a high-quality EDC utility knife. Thanks.

Is there any difference b/w my older 203 and the new 204 other than the base? Just curious...Thanks in advance.

it's fun to do this every once and a while... just to see what kind of junk everyone has...

Hello everybody. I've been following the knife forums for quite some times, incl. Spyderco's. They're all very informative. Yes, I'm new in this posting business.

It seems to have everything: Nested G-10, compression lock, 440V blade, tip up or down carry, etc. Does anyone have one? I don't seem to see it mentioned much. Any prefernces for the spearpoint vs upswept trailing point? Any comparison points vs. the...

Dear Forumites,

I have a problem that is posted on the other Spyderco forum. If you would please take the time to respond, or just look it over, I would greatly appreciate any input. Thanks for your time. Here is the link:

Hey guys I wanted to ask what is a fair price for an endura 50/50 SS..

I paid $79.99 for mine and wanted to know if I paid too much..

Botachtactical.com has some good deals on Wegner's (PE & CE) for $59, Calypso Jr. FRN (PE & SE) for $29. You might want to call to check stock availability. These show up in their Clearance section.

MAN this is a sweet knife.PE would have been better but I am happy with it.It is the only ats 34 and the only G10 I currantly have.It is alot like haddleing a stone,it is alot more solid than any of my others and has a differant sound opening.I don't...

Can anyone tell me if one or more of the files in this set is the correct size to redo the standard serrations in a Spydie blade? I am of course referring to the Spydero model 400F set, listed in the 2001 PDR.

Do any of you have any good cut stories. My Rookie just bit my finger, that booger is SHARP. I don't have the 204 but a tungsten V sharpener. It seems to do the job very nicely. I can get it shaving sharp on it.... Back to cuts. I was playing around with...

Well, they under-estimated me... I took a dull(2 knife to show them handling, and the delica to show sharpness(not the sharpest one...).
