Hey yall! I was perusing on BHQ and came across a fully serrated Persistence lightweight in S35VN. According to the description, it was supposed to be made available in June of this year, but it appears it is still not available. Anyone know if and when...

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...

The retailer I deal with just marked down the LC200N variant Siren, and so I obviously had to pull the trigger as I now live in the rain forest.

After clicking submit I recalled hearing about the pretty intense lock failure issue that has since been...

Canis showed up last night on Spyderco's site!!!
Snapped one up.

But by morning, it was gone!

I've been scanning Spyderco's site daily for two years to finally get that knife...

I live by the ocean and with high edge retention tool steels after a week what was a hair popping sharp blade becomes an edge that shaves, but not like before and that is without use. My solution has become zip lock sandwich bags to keep the knives and...

I’ve got a PM2 and while I like the blade shape, in prolonged used, it’s just not comfortable. Thinking the Stretch 2 would be a good alternative since the blade does are radiused and that hump towards the rear of the grip isn’t there. I’m curious about...

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...

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...

What is the BTE thickness of the Centofante 3 vs Chaparral? Yes, I know they have different grinds, but still would like to know. Thanks!

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...

I really want a Manix LW in Spy 27 because I like the steel and I like the Teal/ sea foam color, but I refuse to buy one with pinned construction. I know I can get a great deal on a pinned version in a few places, but I’m still not interested at any...

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

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

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'...

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

Why is everything out of stock on the spyderco website? Is it limitations on steel? Labor shortage? Machines that cannot be repaired? The ebay prices are nuts. Every old used knife is selling for near list price on the auctions.

the kopa. What a fine little knife. For its size, it is easily my favorite folder. Like the dragonfly, don’t let it’s size fool you, it’s a knife that’s designed exceedingly well for use. I appreciate how the series was focused on being beautiful, limited...

Hi, I have ordered Yojimbo 2, main purpose EDC, all kind of tasks, self defense comes not so important, though Im interested in art, but hope it never need to be used. So for classic everyday tasks is this Yojimbo 2 good knife or which recommendations...

This is a continuation of RamZar's amazing lists! The bar was set Very high! Thanks RamZar!

Figured it could be fun to start carrying discontinued knives on Thursdays.

It would be a good way to keep old favourites relevant and show off some vintage gems if you have them!

I'm going to start with the GB1 tomorrow.

Having just seen one these super-rare little pieces on Instagram (thatspydercollector),I must now have one! :smiling-heart-eyes

Just that! I’ve got K390, 4V and 52100 all with Spyderco’s “Satin” finish, if that’s what it is called, and they all develop rust spots just looking at them.

Now here comes 15V with one of the best blade finishes, IMO, Spderco makes and I haven’t seen...

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

If you like the PM2, you'll probably find this video interesting. Sorry for telling on you Eric!

I'm looking for suggestions for a laser goniometer that can show me the angles of my edges.

I currently have one of these and it isn't ideal for measuring knife edges, as I've come to find out.

I love the Delica. I tried them all, I go back and forth but at the end of the day I have to admit... Delica is probably the most iconic 3 incher edc spydie and best seller for a reason. It's almost perfect as it is, at least for and in my hand...but...

Well, I might need to buy four or five and just have that be my go-to knife from here on out. When Sal announced the first iteration of the S2XL, this is the setup I was dreaming about and now it's actually happening....and it's NOT a sprint run! Woo!...

sal just dropped the bomb that they are working on an enuff 2 with a thinner stock and longer blade. as someone that's been watching this model and wanting one for a while, i'm excited about the prospect of a next gen model.

what would you all like to...

My Spydie sense is tingling! Vvvvvvvvvvvvvvv!
I think this one is going to be extremely popular. Triple B and all.
Maybe not today... Maybe not tomorrow... Let's just be patient and let this sink until the time comes.
I would never tell anybody what to...

I try to maintain sharpness on my knives by stropping before they get too dull.
The next time they need sharpening I'm gonna give the Vivi Edge a go.

But in the meantime my question for the extremely knowledgeable folks here is this.
I have been...

I was looking for a pacific with that edge and I couldn't find one. I checked the main spydie site and it looks like it isn't offered. is it because they lose money on these type of edges or does it have something to do with the H1 steel?

I'd love a new fillet knife by Spyderco and have mentioned it often in the past. I like to fillet over the rib cage, and skin with a pure plain edge. Serrated edges have a tendency to rip through skin, something I'm not interested in (during the skinning...

Does anyone have any experience using skinny scales on a Shaman ? Do you prefer them over standard size scales in hand ? Thank you , MG2

I got a brand new S90V CF Native Chief and the action is pretty stiff – not easy to open with one hand and tension when closing even when back lock is fully pressed. So I put a drop of nano oil on the blade tang and shaken the knife to distribute it in...

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...
