Re: Show your mods!
The enlarged Spydie is the result of some testing of my new split fiber laser. I frequently offer for sell complete knives and was looking for an identifier that set my modified Spyderco knives apart from factory offerings. Once I marked a couple of blades and reassembled the knives I felt I got a bit carried away with the upsizing! I've abandoned the larger Spydie logo and settled on a more subtle personalized obverse logo.CaptWiggum wrote: ↑Mon Apr 25, 2022 10:15 pm
Can you tell us about the bigger, darker Spydie logo on the blade?

Delica was gifted to me and clip had been stripped of top layer of coating on top of clip giving it a gray color . I took it off and applied heat to top and bottom and changed color to a very dark gray with a bit of shine . MG2

Re: Show your mods!
This an early clip mod done years ago when working at Caterpillar. I had this clip put through a Wheelabrator to remove black finish. It left a grippy texture but not a pocket eater . Dan
