Vivi, any idea if it perhaps would be ok with Spyderco to announce the "swap" one single time in the main forum?!
Just so that more people get aware of it? I guess many don´t look in the off topic section too often (I myself don´t), many perhaps even almost never...

Partly I have selfish reasons of course ;), more members from Europe would be nice and make trading / selling / buying there more realistic (Spyderco prices are around 1/3 higher in Europe than in the US, plus shipping - most times not a good option to trade/sell/buy especially for an US citizen with an European... :o )
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

I'm ok with that if they would like announce it.

I was thinking same thing. I just happen to see the link in VIVI’s sig line and clicked away to try and get set up. If I wouldn’t have seen the main forum thread from a bit ago I wouldn’t have known.

Guess I was not clear enough... I did not mean that Spyderco themselves should announce the "swap" in the main forum, but that you / me / whoever gets their ok to do one single post (thread) in the the main forum, just to point to this thread in the off topic section, so that more of the forum members get aware of the swap...

Kristie, should you read this: Could you consider allowing this? So the "swap" gets a bit of a kickstart in the main forum, but of course remains unrelated to Spyderco?

Hi Vivi

Thanks for setting this up. I sent a request to join a few seconds ago. I'm looking forward to seeing how the swap forum evolves.

Not gonna lie, I hope we are able to sell/buy non Spyderco products as well.
All my Brand-X knives? Those are the ones I want to dump.
This is exactly why I would rather it to be Spydie exclusive. No one wants a bunch of junk being punted on there.

If you want to deal in other stuff, there is always r/knife_swap.

In defense of my others... everyone of them is more expensive than any of my Spyderco's ;)
