I have to say it's getting harder to do.
I really like how that looks. However, every metal liner construction Spyderco or Byrd I've owned that had a 3 screw clip (rather than a wire clip) has had problems with the screw holes stripping out when trying to tighten them enough to eliminate clip wobble. I've also had problems with steel liners rusting on Chinese and Taiwanese made Byrds and Spydercos.

Wow this is nice. Byrd knives have their unique place as the potential gateway Spyderco knife. I've never wanted to spend the money on a Spyderco wharncliffe, not knowing if I'd like it, because I definitely wasn't a fan of the look of it. However, for $20-25, I'd love to try it as see what all the hoopla is about this blade shape. But then I might be hooked, and end up buying $100 hap40 wharncliffe models etc lol. Maybe Spyderco better not come out with this after all.
