MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Now I wonder...After all this and people that scored after an hour or two of trying...how many will actually provide some feedback on use and sharpening in the Mule Team subforum?? I'll put money on less than a handful

My experience was almost painless... Thank you Spyderco!

Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Good point. I'm wondering, for those that have both the Spy 27 and S45VN versions, what are the real world differences, similarities? On paper, they are so similar. My BIL has the Spy 27 and it is his favorite knife, but we have nothing to compare it to.
Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Flippers already have them up on ebay

I owe reports on my Z-max and Z-wear currently.
Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
That's a new record for flipper speed...at $225 and $250...3x the price and over.

Right? Some folks could use some time with their whetstones to restore their Zen Groove.
I'll let you in on a secret. Nobody needs to squander their precious time ordering from Spyderco. If they're willing to pay a little markup, by this time tomorrow we'll see Magnacut Mules all over eBay.
Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Wrong thread for this discussion, but I agree my LC200N will roll. With you on PD1. If the MagnaCut Mule doesn't work for you maybe try S110V?dlum1 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 11:12 amWell that checkout process was painful. I love these fixed blades so I feel the effort was worthwhile. I'm curious to see if I notice any practical differences between this and and the pd1 variant. This may become my new fishing knife if the edge retention and stability are there. Fingers crossed that the heat treat pushed the hardness I find lc200n rolls too easily for my use. Pd1 is better a resisting rolls but I don't have the heart to leave it covered in water.
My zmax regularly goes camping for building fires and the edge never rolls... just microchips occasionally leaving a sharp working edge. The s45 mule has become my wife's favorite kitchen knife. It's slightly tarnished but not rusted from acid fruit and vegetables but the edge always has enough aggression to cut tomatoes with ease. I think of it as a more corrosion resistant s30v.
All in all, great little fixed blades.
I really appreciate that spyderco continues to make these. Looking forward to getting some real use out of this one

Well, my last couple of dedicated EDC threads didn't go very well, but I plan on giving it another shot with this one. I will be out back cutting up car tires the day I get it in my hand.

Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Already one on eBay for $225, and it has to be someone who bought one in person because they have pics of it.

A third flip on ebay at a BIN of $200. That won't last long, I don't think.

Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date
Time out errors, the servers thinking I was using a VPN when I wasn't and then the site kept declining my card despite the fact I approved the purchase with my bank and they sold out as I kept trying. A friend of mine figured this might happen and ordered two so Ill buy it off them. Honestly even though I'm still getting one and should be happy I'm quite mad about my experience. I've bought the last two Mules and what I've gathered from these 3 experiences is that it comes down to the luck of the draw what your order experience with the site will be like. I'm fine with there being a limited supply and if someone isn't fast enough they are out of luck. But the limited supply coupled with the numerous site issues one faces makes this experience a terrible and stressful one. I spent 1hr 20mins being stressed out hoping against hope that I would get one struggling with the site entire time. With how popular these drops seem to be getting I imagine things are only going to get worse for special drops like this. Honestly if this is how Mule drops will continue to be Ill probably stop purchasing them which is a shame because I really do love the concept! Spyderco please improve your online infrastructure!

I haven't had the best success trying to EDC a fixed blade, so I'm not sure how the actual EDC will go but I will definitely put it to stupid use. I've got a sheath and scales on the way too. I might need to remember how to cut stuff with plain edge though lol.

This forum doesn't have "likes" or a similar feedback mechanism and not everyone wants to reply with or a LOL response. I like funny posts, but i'm in the crowd that won't always reply.
