Thank you so much. It’s a pleasure to be here! I certainly have a lot to learn. I also have a bad case of “SAD”. Spiderco Acquisition Disorder.”

yeah, the DLC s45vn's are pretty sparse right now. I was hoping you'd say satin blade. :rolleyes: I'll try and keep an eye out.notfixingit wrote: ↑Sat Jun 19, 2021 6:39 pmBlack DLC is the main one, but I'd probably take a camo DLC too and just swap the scales.Buddafucco wrote: ↑Sat Jun 19, 2021 11:37 amWhich version are you looking for?notfixingit wrote: ↑Fri Jun 18, 2021 6:02 pmI've been trying to find one of the new s45vn pm2 for a few months now, so far only seen 1 camo/satin on eBay and it sold quickly, granted any pm2 right now is a challenge.
I have the Cruwear/Micarta on order, although I wish they would done that on DLC and a Maxament that should be here Thursday

Perfectly understandable. With SPY27 (which by Larrin's testing seems to perform like finer-grained, easier-to-maintain S35VN), S45VN (which marries some of the best characteristics of S30V & S35VN), and Larrin's game-changing Magna-Cut, it looks like you guys have your work cut out for you with regards to determining which steel will eventually supplant S30V as the standard production steel for Golden models.
I think any reasonable user would be more than ecstatic with any of them (S30V/S35VN continues to serve me well in my work knives), though I imagine Magna-Cut will be a premium option for a while, occupying the same pricing space as S110V, Maxamet, M390/20CV/204P, and S90V.
