SE are the bees knees and you need to get with the program. Just as with PE knives, not all SE knives are created equally and different combinations perform better than others. Towards the end there's a bit of why I'm bothering with all this if...
This forum has some of the most kindhearted people that I have ever met . So many of you are always willing to help someone in need. It is for that reason that I felt I had to post this.
Recently there was someone who posted about challenges they were...
I’d like to thank all of you for the great information on the issue mentioned. My primary purpose for the thread was more to raise awareness that it is a problem and hope that just the greater awareness would help contribute...
There has been some discussion and fair amount of frustration on the question of Spyderco choosing not to ship internal parts. The subject is far more complicated than it might appear on the surface. Some of the questions that...
I have been carrying my new Chaparral LW SE for the last week or so and cannot get over what a fantastic little knife it is. I was trying to think of what (if anything) I would change about it if given the choice. The only thing I could think of was “this...
Just realized that my favorite Spydercos are all designed by Sal Glesser. Actually I was not fully aware of that, since generally it really does not matter to me at all who the designer is, as long as I love the knife.
Well, I feel like a little kid right now just waiting for Santa, in this case the Mail person. I am waiting on 3 Spydercos: a Delica super blue, Cat G10, and Pacific salt spyderedge. What's in the mail on your side of the woods?
Easily my most used knife in the summer is my SE Sprint Syderhawk and is one of my can't do without blades. I know, JD and others, would agree with me in that a SE hawkbill is the perfect yard/pruning knife and I'd love a 2nd with a different steel to...
I finally found a second hand P´kal.
The knife looks like NIB but the sharpness is not blistering.
I was wondering if i could sharpen the P´kal on the Sharpmaker? Anyone know what angle would be best?
I think stropping wouldn´t be feasable due to the...
I need a self defense knife under 3.5” for my wife. Preferably a backlock because that’s what she knows how to use. The matriarch is too long at 3.57”. I was considering a serrated delica wharncliffe. Thoughts?
I recently purchased a Spyderco Cat off of AMZN. The knife arrived with a strong chemical smell that I isolated to the handle. I started to notice that my hands and my pocket smelled of the chemical odor as well. I ended up washing the handle and...
To kick off this thread, I'm going to use 10V from the rivers edge run on the pm2. I tested the more recent Para 3 and it matched the pm2 in terms of wear resistance. The 10V runs have been compared to the bento...
I’ve decided on picking up an Endura since I often carry a Swiss army Tinker, the 3.75 Endura blade will be a good balance of a larger blade. Can’t decide between the K390 and PD1 sprint. Any large cons to either of of those?
I don't normally worry about late lockup and I caution people to not freak out about it, but my Crucarta Military 2 that I've had for about 5 months is honestly giving me some concern. The lockup has moved a fair bit across the tang already, and more...
I've been using the Sharpmaker system for about 10 years now as my only system with great success. I've got the diamond rods down to the ultra fine, and typically set the edge at 30 inclusive and microbevel with a few light passes at 40....
Some of you may remember I had some isues with Police 4's.
I did some scale swaps and snapped the pivot screw on one of them. It was a pain getting the part from Spyderco. I think I got 3 packages in the mail from them before I finally got what I...
When considering a pocket knife, that is something with a 3 blade or less, I would guess, what sorts of characteristics and handling qualities do you look for first?
For me, weirdly, I want to know how well it will cut an apple for me to eat while...
Most that time I took my edges to a high polish, generally finishing with highest grit I had available to me. I'd finish my edges with a Spyderco ultrafine benchstone or sharpmaker rods, then strop....
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...
This might be a question for Larrin and I do hope he chimes in at some point. But I've been talking to a couple of old timers here in my home town that I've recently talked to about whittling . Both of these guys I've talked to about whittling and both of...
I spent a great deal of time on my 4th of July holiday yesterday in the garden. We are growing several tomato plants this year along with several other nice veggies. Yesterday I did some trimming and pruning of lower sprouts on the bigger tomato plants....
