Spyderco Forums

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...

What is most Vestal Folder, why ❓

First post. I currently own about a dozen Spyderco's and am looking to buy a new high end folder. Im on the fence though. I would like a high end Manix 2 or a Shaman. Im leaning towards a sprint run Manix 2 with 15V and G10 or a Shaman in M4 and micarta....

Today for me it the G-10 Cat!! John

If this is a duplicate thread.. Please delete..

...when you are using your favorite knife to open a package, don't set it down inside the package.

i almost threw away my manix 2 lightweight kc exclusive in xhp tonight. those who know me around here know that's not just my favorite spyderco, but my...

Is the G10 PARA 3 stronger than the PARA 3 LW ?

Id like to hear about locks on knifes. Why is the manix 2 the only spyderco in production with a caged ball bearing lock? I find it to be excellent, and enjoy the axis lock on a few benchmade models I own.

Liner locks seem to be less popular than...

This thread will start out with the Native 5 Salt since at this time it's our only option for SE MagnaCut, but as more models become available I will probably move to larger blades but I plan to keep using this Native for long term results.

I had...

Recently I launched a thread asking you folks which 3 of the older models you all would like to see in a Sprint Run. The one model that just kept coming up over and over again was the C-60 Ayoob model. It just makes perfect sense to take a hard look at a...

Can anyone tell me if this is an early April Fools???!

I have an interest in some new Lil Matriarchs.

In no particular order,

PE and SE K390 Full Flat Grind if possible.
Lil Matriarch Salt (H1, LC200N, or Magnacut)
Emerson Wave Lil Matriarch

Anyone else share my desire for more iterations of this...

Those of you purchasing Spyderco Products from Knife Center as I have in the past should be aware of data leaks from this company evidently per Nord VPN security my account with them has been compromised without them informing me as a customer they have...

Mentioned in the Spyderco Shot Show 23 (Blade HQ) video, Eric mentions a new blade coating, anyone have any information on this? Is this to combat interference in heat treating? :thinking

The ceramic mule is coming soon. Question is, what knives to put it in? A neck knife is a no brained. A sheep’s foot salt boat knife? A ceramic Siren?

Now that CPM SPY 27 has been out a couple years, I want to hear some feed back from people who daily carry this knife. I have read all of the reports of tests on the stock of this steel, I do not want to hear about those. I am not interested in hearing...

Saw this protoype at Blade, how far out is it guys? Any further details!! Also love the mini p’kal, subway heck all of ‘em.

Thanks,
Dave

Does anyone know of dealers or individuals who have new 1st gen full serrated Enduras?

I absolutely love k390! I’ve got several and they just won’t stay out of my pocket! I’ve read reports here and there and the k390 from Seki City is run a bit harder (HRC) than the k390 from Golden. Is there any truth to this?

Please accept my humble...

Congratulations Spyderco for the Military 2 being named the American Made Knife of the Year at Blade Show 2022!
:party-face

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'...

i know this has been discussed here before but i think it's a real shame to see great knife designs fade away without ever being offered in anything but vg10 or s30v. i know these steels are perfectly capable and geared toward a wider variety of daily...

Share the crazy good deals on Spyderco products that you find here!

First off.. I wish to say that I LOVE my 15V Manix 2! It has exceeded my expectations and has become a lovable tool for me.

I feel that I made the right decision to acquire one from a fantastic dealer and was able to buy one at very near retail MSRP...

Hello,
I’m new here and while I’m not a stranger to all things sharp and pointy, I am new to the Spyderco.
I work in the Aerospace industry and have been for 43 years. I have always had some form of blade in my pocket, toolbox and tool pouch. I even...

Pleeaaaaaaaaaaase!!!!

I know that the idea of a Spyderco custom shop gets brought up regularly, and this isn't another of those posts.

Because I'm older, and have been buying and using knives for more than forty years, I have narrowed down my tastes, especially handle...

I got a Spydiechef for Christmas and have come to really enjoy it. Having a 1 year old, it's use as quick food prep (cutting fruit and other food into small pieces) has been great in addition to normal EDC tasks. Can whip it out, make a few cuts, and give...

Hi!
I have a question to all of you: I bought this Spyderco years ago in the 90s and forgat its name. Can anyone help and tell meh which Spyderco this is?
Thank you
Max

I don't like the LW models. Flimsy scale material more suitable for my 10 year old niece.

Can we swap blades from LW to G10 frame?

Most of us are owning more then one knife and watch.Lets see the combo you realy love.
For me is the D4 and classic G Shock.
P.S.for the lucky ones who are enjoying the 2nd amendment from the most great Constitution on this planet- feel free to add your...

Is there anyone doing after market Spdie Edges?

I have several knives like my S30V Native Chief I would like to have as fully serrated Spydie Edges on.

Any idea when RESPECT or WARRIOR HAWK will be in stock again?

Even a six-month range would be great!

Is it just me, or did we all suddenly become metallurgists? Not just here on the forum, but it seems that all throughout the knife world people are expressing more and more interest in obtaining a knife with a proper heat treat.

What is a proper heat...

cruwear in my opinion is a joy to sharpen. Today I started carrying my cruwear delica again.

This youtube video refers to cruwear as a sharpener's steel . Also super blue. What else do folk's consider to be in that category? SPY27 perhaps?
