Spyderco Forums

In my part of the knife community, every knife company should start any introduction to a knife of interest with the blade steel and its hrc. That is a world of pertinent information. This is the nine tenths of the required knowledge lying below the...

This is my favorite time of year and this knife is hugely emblematic of it:

Busting out the fly rods, hitting the rivers for the first time this spring and fiddling with my caribbean on the ride is one of...

What's going on with the MicroJimbo? It's not listed under New Product Reveal or Clipit but if you search MicroJimbo it comes up as coming soon.

I would love to see the Caly3 being brought back as a lightweight or even with some fancy scales. I might be wrong but I remember Sal saying that this was a model refined in time with love. I don’t think it was a poor seller but…who knows… your guess is...

I've missed just about every sprint run I've been interested in. Either it released while I was sleeping or at work. Does anyone know when this milli 2 sprint run will drop? I have 5 pages to sites that will have it once it drops open and the knife in my...

Hello everyone,

I received my Manix 2 lightweights in Magnacut not long ago. I noticed that both knives have a laser engraving/etching/stamp etc. whatever you want to call it on the tang of the blade. Does anyone else have this stamp on there's?? You are...

Hello everyone,

thank you for all your kind replies to my first thread (Recommendations for a European traditionalis), I've now got my first Spyderco knife and I'm going to tell you all the things you already know about anyways, but I'm just pretty...

I haven't heard anything from Spyderco about when the OpFocus seconds sale will be this year. It seems like it is generally the first or second Sunday in May? In years past it looks like it has been announced in March but there haven't been any...

Hopefully the factory, workers and families were spared the carnage shown on our news.

Hi, I have found a few long lost knives from a collection I had several years ago.
It was a set of three mini spyderco knives. Unfortunatly I have only the two smaller ones.
They are in perfect condition.
Are they worth anything?

Why the name? Where was it derived from? I only own one Spyderco knife. My CO8GS Harpy G-10. Purchased it from a knife dealer NIB for $80 last May. Its came in handy many times for my line of work. Wouldnt part with it for the world.

Found this painted stone that someone must have put on the top of the low peak I chose for my quick early morning run today.

Took a pic of it together with my iwb carry (Goddard the Great again).

Happy Easter to all of you! - And perhaps some would like...

Dr Larrin did some extensive testing on 8Cr13MoV which helps put this budget material into perspective in its capabilities compared to other materials.

While there was lots of talk about real world testing being more important than controlled testing....

I recently bought a street bowie, and it's a lovely design, very thin, very slicey, great handle, takes a wonderful edge.

There's just one giant, glaring issue: The Sheath.

Whatever spyderco used to make this, it's NOT kydex, it's got some sort of...

Knife friends I have a Mariner that has me stumped. It has the vent holes on both sides and was made in SEKI. What confuses me is that it has some black left in the untouched areas. The black looks to come from the factory. I took some pics and hopefully...

Hello all!

First I need to introduce myself, since this is my first post.

My name is Bernhard, I'm from a small European country named Austria. I've been into knives my whole life, roughly 35 years by now, but I've been interested mostly in traditional...

Hat's off to you Larrin. I'm carrying a Manix with Magnacut. Very sharp. Took a beautiful edge. Also doing very well in our corrosion test tank, after 10 days. Gonna be fun.

sal

i know the manix is a little less popular than some other models (even...

Hey there, name is Cory and I've been a member of the forum for about 10 years but gave up on being a knife hobbiest 6-7 years ago and when I tried to get back on my old account I couldn't remember the password and I lost my original email years and...

Hi! With the Dragonfly being an EDC MVP, whether as a primary or secondary carry, I finally decided to get the S30V model. I'm just not sure that I'm man enough for the pink scales. So I've been looking at other options (besides just dyeing them)....

Saw this on a Japanese site. I could not find any information. Is it real Spyderco?

This thread is dedicated to the good deals on Spyderco knives, which you might come across whilst browsing the websites of reputable resellers based in Europe (specifically : within the European Union Customs Union).

The deals may not be good as the one...

Hi, I purchased a New G10 Manix s110v, but the blade bevel is slightly uneven. At the very tip of the blade it is slighty bigger than on the other side. I know it really doesnt affect much but I was under the impression that Spyderco had the most...

It has been awfully quiet on any news regarding the slipjoint and the smaller version of the Kapara... I was really hoping 2024 would be the year for it.

As a Brit abroad i’m always on the lookout for any good slip joints for carrying when I visit the UK. I’ve been using my S110V Para 3 a lot the last few days and got to wondering if we might ever see a slip joint version aimed at the UK market. A quick...

I just picked up a new Paramilitary 2 and the Date Code is 1348. Does anyone know how to decipher this? Great knife by the way. So far my largest in my collection.

This thread is a collaborative effort by RamZar and Buddafucco . All input from others are most welcomed.

We're listing all of the most recent Sprints/Exclusives/Mule Teams/Flash Batches since January 2019 (in this post and in the order they were...

Wow! Didn’t see this coming. Love David’s designs. Can’t tell if this one has a lockbar insert given the pictures, and the description doesn’t indicate one way or the other.

I’ve been in the market for a serrated black blade para 3 lw but for about a year haven’t been able to find it. Is it discontinued?

Obviously a discontinued model it looks really cool

I posted about this in one of the recent mega threads, but it's pretty buried there and I've been carrying this for a bit and figured I'd start a thread about it.

Ok, so this is a small knife in the value line. It's actually a 3 blade but the blade and...

Saw this as a mule team.
Doesn't look like it's moving. Most be the description like 440c :p

However, Carpenter already had a PM 440C

CTS 40cp

At first glance, CTS b70p looks like CTS 75p (PM BG42)
But Ooo it's different, looks in between 40cp and...

I purchased red scales for my Spyderco Paramilitary 2. Is there someone out there that can put the new red scales on my Paramilitary 2?

I begged sal and crew for a Hawkbill Dragonfly for a long time, and when my dream came true I couldn't have been happier with it. I'm not privy to sales numbers, but I think the Hawkbill Salt Dfly has been a successful knife.

I see an opportunity for an...

While I continue to dream of a salt Sage 5, I can’t help but want a LW SpydieChef to throw in my kitchen cabinet or camping backpack.

Am I the only one?!

Also think the SpydieChef with compression lock would be a winner!

It's not an exclusive and during Blade HQs live video they said 'limited run'. So is it a sprint?

I love my spyderco sharpmaker with my CBN, coarse, fine and extra fine triangular rods.
I am thinking of buying the galley-v for a 10° option for my fishing filet knives and some kitchen sharpening... but I would like an additional coarse option on the...

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...

Anyone following AI won’t be too surprised, but thought it was interesting what I got from CoPilot when asking for Spyderco in 15v steel. A couple examples below. All had the opening hole dead on. However color doesn’t match 15v:

What is your favorite dealer exclusive combo? For my it’s the St Knicks red and coated 4v. I have them all save the Delica. As much as I like to think that I’m all about function, I’m into the color scheme and like that they have offered some more off the...

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...
