Which spyderco is in the mail?
Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
15v Para 3 lw. There was one on Bladebinge for (what I think was) a fair price. I just had to do it, considering BBB 15v is not going to be produced anymore. That, and I really wanted another Para 3. The plan is to put burnt bronze AWT scales and a LynchNW clip on it. Should be about perfect then.

I actually sold my Yojimbo also, though I am still planning to buy a 15V version whenever those release. But I had to chime in that I also think wharncliffes are just so awesome for EDC stuff. Just ordered the latest Divo release because I needed a good wharncliffe to have around for the summer, and I dunno when those 15Vs are landing.Rob-F wrote: ↑Fri May 30, 2025 6:39 amJust ordered a Yojimbo 2 from Robco, yesterday. To replace my first one, which I never should have sold! When I missed it, I bought a used one off the Bay--which is going back to the seller this morning. It wasn't in good enough shape. I have slowly realized I have to have a Yojimbo 2. I don't carry it away from the house, but I have to have it around the house and in the garden. Nothing can replace that long straight Wharncliffe edge. It was time to get a brand new one.

The C95 is a total different beast then the LW c101. Since you like G10 linered golden models you will be amazed by the difference...8th_Note wrote: ↑Sun May 25, 2025 7:46 pmI am not a fan of the Manix 2 LW. I had one, and it just never meshed with me, so I sold it.
But I just got a deal wasaay too good to pass up on a Manix 2 XL. So I'm going to give that one a shot. People around here seen to love the C95. Hopefully I will too. And I generally prefer G10 Golden models over FRN. If not, I'll still be able to flip it for a quick profit. So a win either way.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
@apollo I like it a lot so far. Its big and brash, and the handle feels great. I really like the ergos on it. Much better than the LW little ManixManixguy@1994 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 04, 2025 6:32 amapollo wrote: ↑Wed Jun 04, 2025 5:12 amThe C95 is a total different beast then the LW c101.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
I just got a pretty good deal on a Police 3. I've been waiting to find a decent price on one for awhile.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
Just got a ZDP-189 Mule in today, been waiting for while now for it to get here. Got it off ebay, just wanted to check out this blade steel, it is no joke lol... it's some kind of hard.
The beveled edges were all jacked up, in all I spent the better part of two hours getting the bevels true'd up to 15 dps. Now we see if it holds the edge well...

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
I've been lurking here for a long time but today i decided to create an account and use you guys as my emotional sponge. So, i ordered my Spyderco just before my AD went on vacation, he didn't manage to send it and now i will have to wait ~10 days for delivery (usually you get your order in 48h).
So, i'm waiting for all-black Para 3 (G-10 scales and DLC coating). It will be addition to my Military 2 and Manix 2.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
Just ordered my second Valloton Sub-Hilt on a whim. Saw a post on Facebook about it and I've been wanting one ever since getting rid of the first one, and now that they're discontinued I figured I better take the opportunity while someone still have them in stock before I'm stuck paying secondary prices.

I've been using the tar out of my PD1 Stretch 2 XL, so I finally caved and went for the Dack Outdoors deal on the K390 S2XL. Might be a month to get here, but I'm fine with a little suspense and plenty of cutters on hand in the mean time. Excited for K390 though - garden and house maintenance work tasks, look out!

St. Nick’s 4v Dodo is on the way! Too bad it arrives while I’m on vacation.

I did a Dodo today!
