I just got the Spyderco 2002 Catalog in the mail today. After looking through it about 50 times, I realized that the ATR and the Ocelot aren't in it. What's going on?

Thanks,

Jeff

HI knife nuts,my father is totally mad and he cannot talk normally(when he talks to me, he is always angry)but today i've did anything wrong and he went in my room and started to talk about a portable CD player that was broken.Like each time he was angry...

Ever pull out your Spydie and have someone exclaim: Oh! Is that a tick logo on the pocket clip? . Sheesh! In my mind I'm thinking: NO, that's NOT a tick!! Of course, I answer very nicely that it is the company's 'icon' that they put on all their knives...

Sorry to bring this up.

But as I was looking at the back of the 2002 Catalog, I saw an error!

For the Bob Lum Tanto FB the type Spyderco AUS-8 and the Bob Lum logo are offset and misplaced.

*chuckles*

A few weeks ago, I picked up a Spyderco Endura for daily carry. Later on, I discovered that the Endura is illegal for me to carry - as it has a 3.75 blade length (legal length is 3.5" . While I love the Endura, I think the Delica is too small for my...

Hey there knife knuts! My grandfather recently passed away, and I got one of his knives. I'm not sure what it is. The blade looks like the civilian blade and the scales(?) are the carbon fiber ones. Is this a civilian?, or is it something else? the blade...

Hi guys and gals,

I bought a Chinook a few days ago and thought I'd share a few of my initial thoughts with you all.

First off, this is a big knife. It's been described as looking bigger than it is; that's because it IS big!

It's not, however, too...

It would be great if your site listed all Spyderco knives whether or not they are sold at the Spydie store. Maybe you could list/show them under the products category. If it is a new knife and not yet sold at the company store you can say

See your...

You wouldn't have any of the old natives with SS clips and gin 1 steel would you .If so how much?

THANKS.

Or if anyone else on the forum has one we might be able to work out a trade.

Jeff

i own an older model military, the one with

only 2 screws in the clip but in cpm440v.

after honing it hairshavingsharp it loses that sharpness after only 1 cardboard box so to shave again i have to hone again.

maybe older models have lower hardness?

I was looking for something to watch on tv and I came across a show selling 172 knives for $200. They were made by Frost. I realized that each of those knives is less than $2. Then I thought that the cheapest spydie there is, ladybug, usually goes for...

Unfortunately, it sounds too expensive for me... Have any of you tried lansky product? Can it sharpen serrated edge?

A friend and I were remarking on how the lock on the endura is deceptively strong when you look at the overall package. I had mentioned that it had been tested as quite strong at Spyderco which brought up the thought. What of lateral forces? How much...

I've got my TENTH spydie today it is stainless serrated police model ats55 bladed,without boye's locking bar,and without the lanyard hole(D'OH!) it is effective and i think is the most beautiful stainless design.Can i use it like a defensive weapon?

Which grade should I use?

Knife Knut on a shoestring budget.

I have but a few scant moments to make a decision on what may be my very next Spyderco.

I know that Clay is the Folder King ,

and that the Blue Lum is more rare than the Imperial Jade Green Lum.

What I need to know is, what do YOU think I should...

Yesterday for the first time I handled a Salsa at the shop. When I first saw photos of it online I was underwhelmed and not really interested, quite frankly. But upon handling one in person it was pretty darn impressive. Compression lock, extra-strong...

I went to the hardware store today to buy som ultra fine sandpaper for my ss rookie. I was amazing, I have almost a mirror finish handle. It worked great on clip(it had gotton ground into the cemet in a basketball game). I got the 600 grit, maybe I should...

I just received the 2002 catalog. It was quite a surprise to see the spirit of the full size Calypso folder reborn as the fixed blade Temperance ! Anyone know where they are available now?

Hi SPYDERCREW,i am very curious about you favorites knives and your carry configuration. thanx for A lot of inputs!

PS:I'm planning for a knife design(Civv gunting hybrid)which i can submit you after

Ok I have three knives that have been upgraded to a better steel IMO (The Harpy, Merlin, and Endura (FRN)).

I was wondering if I were to send these knives in could the blades be exchanged for the new ones?

If so how much would it cost?

Or should...

I hear a lot about the mouse and the Meercat, but I have never seen either of them. Does anyone have a picture? I assume the mouse has been discontinued, but is the Meercat new?

On the new Salsa, can a regular Spyderco clip be mounted, since it has what appears to be the barrel screw mount? I don't like the flimsy Q style clip. That was the main reason I sold our Q model, actually the only reason. I know that sounds silly, but on...

I just noticed, while looking through my new PDR, that the Millie and the Police models are now both available with 50/50 blades. And that's just groovy, baby .

Not that I really want one, but you know...somebody might.

Jeff/1911.

This is on ebay.They say it is a first model endura but I think it looks more like a micarta worker.

Also does anyone know where I can find a cf Walker?

Jeff

Does anyone have pictures of them? Were many plainedges made?

Thanks Ray

Yes I am trying to decide which one out of over a hundred or so of my clipit's i want to put into my cage. Kinda a yes you can handle the knife~ type of display if you want to put YOUR hand in the cage. The Tarantula I have is a kinda rare jungle bread...

I have long searched for a decent knife sharpening system. In my long quest, I have found just one sharpener that will do a knife justice. This sharpener is great for PE knives, but it just doesn't work on SE toys. My brother is not YET hooked on Spyderco...

Well, here it is 7 minutes after 7 pm Friday night and the UPS still has not come. So it looks like my LTW Calypso Jr. isn't coming in today.

Those commies said that it would be here the 4th... I suppose I could settle for the 5th. But not a day...

Is there a new Police model in the works?

Here is the CF dragonfly you wanted

Hey, just got the 2002 PDR today, it's fantastic, nice pics and well put together.

But I was wondering... in the catalog it lists the Meerkat in both AUS8 and 440C... upon closer examination of the pictures I noticed one blade was straight , while the...

I think it is a meerkat but im not sure.

I was browsing through some of my old favorite web pages when I came across an up-dated page from the KnifeCenter Of The Internet web page. They have the new Salsa in blue, green, and tan for $66.95. They also have the Fixed Bladed Lum for $139.

I...

Today I had to do a speech for my Communications class on something that I was interested in. **Smiles**

To make the story short, I ended up talking about Spyderco knives. Yes, my prof didn't have a problem with me pulling out several of my Spydies!...
