Spyderco Counterfeits, Clones, Replicas, etc. A place to list and reference all Spyderco counterfeits, clones, and replicas that are found. Anything that isn't a legitimate Spyderco fits in this area.
SE are the bees knees and you need to get with the program. Just as with PE knives, not all SE knives are created equally and different combinations perform better than others. Towards the end there's a bit of why I'm bothering with all this if...
I’d like to thank all of you for the great information on the issue mentioned. My primary purpose for the thread was more to raise awareness that it is a problem and hope that just the greater awareness would help contribute...
This forum has some of the most kindhearted people that I have ever met . So many of you are always willing to help someone in need. It is for that reason that I felt I had to post this.
Recently there was someone who posted about challenges they were...
There has been some discussion and fair amount of frustration on the question of Spyderco choosing not to ship internal parts. The subject is far more complicated than it might appear on the surface. Some of the questions that...
Although not earth shattering, a quick mod to my Yojimbo made it “just right:” not too light, not too heavy, not too grippy (pocket shredding) and not too slippy. I used it with both original scales and both Flytanium Copper scales, but this half and half...
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...
Due to significant increases in material and operational costs, earlier this year, Spyderco found it necessary to make adjustments to all our pricing policies. As part of this restructuring, we will also...
What are the Spyderco CTS XHP knives? I recently pulled out my Bowie and so enjoyed using it. With all the new steels out there I kind forgot about it.
I read it likes a polish, going to try that.😀
To kick off this thread, I'm going to use 10V from the rivers edge run on the pm2. I tested the more recent Para 3 and it matched the pm2 in terms of wear resistance. The 10V runs have been compared to the bento...
I'm wondering how many people use a lanyard on a pocket knife. To me, it's a useless ugly hole that in many cases interferes with the position of the pocket clip so the knife cannot be deep carried. A lanyard is useful on a fixed blade for retention when...
I'm starting a new series of threads and I'm hoping that others will share my desires. The Title i.e. It's About Time For: indicates the desire for the return of certain past models that have gained cult status or consistent popularity as time has gone...
Still, whenever I use my Chap FRN I wish there would be a longer version of it, or just any model in the Endela / Stretch size with both such a thin, slicey ffg blade (2mm) and such a thin handle and by that...
With the implementation of the Endela, the Endura family got a middle ground model sized between Endura and Delica (though as a matter of fact closer to the Endura than the Delica)
I think it would be great if in the (backlock) Salt line the gap between...
I noticed a little bit of rust underneath the scale on my H2 Dragonfly salt, so I decided to take it apart and see how bad it was. I saw that the back lock has several spots of rust on it. This knife hasn’t been exposed to any chemicals and it’s only been...
I’m confused by the Chinook line, have several questions. If you can answer any, grateful am I.
1) Why did this model have so many iterations - what was being changed or improved over time?
2) C1 seems to be sought after. Just rareity, or steel, or...
I wish Spyderco would send a YouTuber one of these to film a tutorial. Has it been a year since it came out? The method they describe in the manual seems designed to cut your off-hand when you switch sides, so I switch holding the knife between right and...
I haven't been on this forum much for a while and very honestly it was because the S90V para 3 Lightweight had become my one and done knife. I had found my perfect edc knife so I didn't really feel as much need to learn and talk about knives.
So wanted to hear some input on this. I’ve been completely enamored with the Stretch XL since I first saw the prototype at the Blade show a few years ago. Wonderful design and IMHO a more refined design than any of the previous Stretches. I didn’t need...
Curious to hear if anyone else is up for a Resilience in CPM-M4?
I'm up for at least a pair. The M4 Tenacious has a wonderfully thin grind behind-the-edge, and has been a joy to use, without having to modify. M4 is a killer steel, to boot, and surely...
I just received my Stretch 2 XL Salt serrated from GP Knives, and I'm loving it. I can't help but think that it would be a near perfect folding hunter. It has:
1) Excellent ergonomics for a secure, comfortable grip.
2) Grippy texturing, which also...
I have been looking around for a new flattening technique for my whetstones and I was hoping to pick the brains of anyone who has used any of the various methods I'm considering.
The first method is adhesive backed sandpaper on glass. I have used Wet or...
I’m sorry but in my opinion these prices are getting a little too high. Spyderco is one of the best and they have to make a profit. However when the Chinese s35 tenacious is going for $120 I think that’s a little much. In 2018 I bought my DLC PM2 for...
Well, I feel like a little kid right now just waiting for Santa, in this case the Mail person. I am waiting on 3 Spydercos: a Delica super blue, Cat G10, and Pacific salt spyderedge. What's in the mail on your side of the woods?
I recently purchased Ripp’s Garage Tech scales for my two Spyderco Shamans. The scales are the “Spyderco Shaman Skinny Tero Tuf Scale Set”, one in gray and one in OD green for my stonewash blade and my DLC blade, respectively.
Post about your sharpenings. Brand, grit, abrasives, grit progression, desired edge finish, decision making in sharpening, whatever you want. Might be interesting to see what people use for certain tasks, and will give insight into the results of others'...
Hello friends!Special respect to Sal for the great knives! I've been using Military for a long time - this is my favorite EDC. I'm a doctor and knives are my hobby.I recently got a Civilian but without a clip. What are the options to purchase an original...
here's a look at the tip profile & a comparison with a pe pacific salt 2 tip. this pacific salt has a thinned out edge but the tip is otherwise stock, not one of my thinned out...
Presentation
The box and packaging here leave a great first impression. You get the sense you've purchased something that's very high quality. Custom fit box so the knife doesn't move...
Does quality of back lock in Japanese Spyderco improved? Around 2008-2010, I bought Police SS and Endura 4 FRN, both of them got very disappointing vertical blade play very quickly, without even abusing it. Some guys who purchased Endura at the same time,...
I've got a Manix 2, one of the 15V BBB sprint runs. I noticed that it has some vertical blade-play/lock-rock, and I can't figure out why. I have thoroughly cleaned it out and everything, but it doesn't seem to go away.
I was inquiring about getting one of my fixed blades DLC coated and received an unexpected response from the maker. This got me thinking, is there any impact to the performance of Spyderco's DLC coated blades due to the high temperatures of the DLC...
