Excuse me if this has been asked before, is there plans for the PM2 to be offered with a S45VN blade?

This is a knife I would love to own . At least half my cutting jobs are done with a folding utility knife. Most folding utility knives waste a lot of blade by hiding it within the retention mechanism. The rough sketch above attempts to illustrate a ute...

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

Does anyone know when the new Para 3s & PM2s with S45VN will be shipped out to dealers?

As I have been using and carrying my techno 2, more and more. I really feel like a stretched out 3.25 in bladed Techno 3 would be very close to perfect. I don't have the photoshop skills to mock it up. But a slightly longer seems like a really good idea....

Just imagine a lw green salt Dyad with black coated blades. I wouldn’t mind a non-coated one though... just bring it back.

Can't wait for this one!

So I ordered it from my local dealer a few days ago along with the 2021 spyder coin, bought the pink heals dragonfly 2...it came today and I love it! Yes I'm a man and have no problem with pink....I shouldn't ever loose it! I like the smaller size too....

The cage on my CBBL Manix 2 just broke. Then one half of the cage shot out and nearly got me in the eye. Guess this one has a trip to Golden coming up. Though I may have a spare cage from a destroyed LW that I snapped up for cheap years ago. Somewhere....

Hello all! I just got a 3d printer and I want to print a replacement ball bearing cage for my Manix. I don't know how to design 3d objects so I've just been using Thingyverse. However I cant seem to find any 3d files for a Manix ball bearing cage. If...

Hey y'all,

I couldn't let the news of a hollow-ground maybe-K390 delica go by uncelebrated. This is now easily my most anticipated knife. Like many of you, over the course of my knife collecting journey, my tastes have evolved towards pure function....

California is a total mess with homelessness and it really reflects everywhere you go. A few weeks ago a transient was clearly just looking for an easy target to beat up. Luckily I was not alone so he changed his mind, nor was he armed, but reports on the...

If Spyderco had maybe one of their old school models from the GOLDEN ERA ( 1998-2004) that sold itself pretty much just on looks and aesthetics it would definitely be the C-59 Shabaria model. The designer Eduard Bradichansky died over 10 years ago and I...

I was in the ole knife room finishing up a nice, coarse grit on M4 Para 3 just yesterday when my wife and dog come in and sit on the floor to hang out :) My wife has handled and used a few of my knives over the years but has never really paid too much...

I know a lot of us have been anticipating the Slysz Swayback for a long time. If you see them dropping somewhere please give us a heads up here

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

I am somehow getting really attracted to the Para 3 LW, but being one that appreciates cool steels and colorful handles, I am wondering what Sprint and Exclusive runs may be in the pipeline. We have so far seen 20CV in blue and Rex 45 in burned orange...

So I just received my Salt 2 ffg SE (in LC200N).
I am not a small knife guy at all, but I was really excited for this model and rightfully so, I can say now! :)

Thanks Sal for making this knife!
I really appreciate this model and it will see a TON...

What say ye?

What type of grind does the Fish Hunter have? It almost looks like a double edge knife. Really like the blade shape and grind but not really in to teeth . I have a Byrd Hawkbill SE but it doesn't really compare well to other blade shapes. I like plain...

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...

Hi All,

OK - I keep asking for help deciding, but I figure that's one reason this forum exists. Plus having been on multiple forums for years, I know that many of you love to talk about this stuff, and nobody else wants to hear it, so here you are......

The very first Spyderco folder that I bought that was designed by ERIC GLESSER was his Dodo model. And it was back in 2003 when Spydercoa put out the very first run of the Dodo model. The same week I got a PE Blue version and also an SE Black handled...

I’m currently borrowing/sharpening my grandfather’s Ladybug 1 he’s had since 1997. After using it for a few days I’m really seeing the utility such a small knife presents (especially as a complimentary blade) and I’m now looking for something similar....

I personally love the full liners on the non frn seki models. I know they're a bit on the pricey side, but you'd the delica/endura/endela would be popular enough to at least garner some enthusiasts.

(Really regret not grabbing a st nicks delica in...

Let’s see those beautiful blue knives.

Taking knives apart
Every month we get back hundreds of knives that have been returned to dealers. These knives have been played with, taken apart, re-assembled and then returned to the dealer as new for a refund. Dealers will just put them back on the...

What are the odds we will see a black blade run of Seki K390? :D

Had training to do in Florence, AL today, and got out about 10. Ran to academy sports and picked up an AR cleaning kit, went to home depot and picked up the vanity and faucet my wife ordered, then decided to go to St. Nick's Knives. Was looking to get a...

The Delica wharncliffe sprint run in HAP40 and burnt orange FRN is my all time favorite work knife. So much so that once they had been available for awhile and everyone who wanted one was able to get one... I went back and bought a couple more in case I...

Hi All
I would like to discuss the idea of an lc200n Dragonfly 2. The Dragonfly 2 is one of my favourite spyderco's. The big little knife that dissapears in your pocket. The ergonomics of this fantastic little knife suit those with larger hands looking...

When we recommend a knife to the average person, do we do a disservice by recommending steels VG-10 and upwards? In reality, most people do not know how to sharpen a knife and most are not interested in learning. They would rather use a simple pull...

Carried my Military for the first time in awhile today, and ran into a couple of hiccups.

The first came when I opened an Amazon package at work. Using what I swore was just the tip, I slit the sides of the packaging tape, then ran it right down the...

Deacon had a good idea about the casual bombshells Sal drops in seemingly random threads: feel free to add them to this thread so we can see them in all there glory together:

What's your favorite factory carbon fiber scale? I'm personally not a fan of the shiny stuff (fradon lock delica) or the stuff they put on the watu/chaparral, but I do really like peel ply, the fluted cf native type scales and the drunken (matter, kinda...
