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...
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...
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...
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...
Since the beginning of this year I've been carrying both a Manix LW in Rex45 and a KnifeCenter Cruwear Lil' Native. Given that the Lil' Native has a sub-2.5 blade, I am surprised at how often I find that it performs better at a given job than the Manix...
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...
Why is it I can buy this knife from a variety of third parties but the spyderco website doesn’t even list it as a product. They only have the plain edge.
I have been carrying my new Chaparral LW SE for the last week or so and cannot get over what a fantastic little knife it is. I was trying to think of what (if anything) I would change about it if given the choice. The only thing I could think of was “this...
Yesterday we had our annual Have a Knives day here in the Netherlands and this was organised by Knives and Tools from Apeldoorn.
There was an old collection for sale from a person who died and the family didn't know what to do with...
Which one do you prefer and why. Please share your experiences with both these steels. The cobalt blue G10 Sage 5 in SPY27 will be my next purchase btw.
I know plain edge sheepsfoots have never been big sellers for Spyderco, but was wondering with the discontinuation of the LC200N PE Atlantic Salts, if there are any plans to bring the model back in another steel. I have a specific need that requires a FRN...
I’ve decided on picking up an Endura since I often carry a Swiss army Tinker, the 3.75 Endura blade will be a good balance of a larger blade. Can’t decide between the K390 and PD1 sprint. Any large cons to either of of those?
Just realized that my favorite Spydercos are all designed by Sal Glesser. Actually I was not fully aware of that, since generally it really does not matter to me at all who the designer is, as long as I love the knife.
I need a self defense knife under 3.5” for my wife. Preferably a backlock because that’s what she knows how to use. The matriarch is too long at 3.57”. I was considering a serrated delica wharncliffe. Thoughts?
One of the things that makes the similar closed size Dragonfly FRN so great is that it is linerless and super light weight. It should be possible, and even desirable to make the Chaparral linerless and that light in weight. It would be the ultimate...
I don't normally worry about late lockup and I caution people to not freak out about it, but my Crucarta Military 2 that I've had for about 5 months is honestly giving me some concern. The lockup has moved a fair bit across the tang already, and more...
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...
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?
Easily my most used knife in the summer is my SE Sprint Syderhawk and is one of my can't do without blades. I know, JD and others, would agree with me in that a SE hawkbill is the perfect yard/pruning knife and I'd love a 2nd with a different steel to...
I finally found a second hand P´kal.
The knife looks like NIB but the sharpness is not blistering.
I was wondering if i could sharpen the P´kal on the Sharpmaker? Anyone know what angle would be best?
I think stropping wouldn´t be feasable due to the...
I recently purchased a Spyderco Cat off of AMZN. The knife arrived with a strong chemical smell that I isolated to the handle. I started to notice that my hands and my pocket smelled of the chemical odor as well. I ended up washing the handle and...
