Does the term Spyder Edge mean fully serrated?

#1

Post by OBJ Viking »

....just wanted clarification?

ETA: All of the members of the family old enough to have a knife, have serrated Endura and I just ordered 2 more as spares from Amazon, with the term "spyder edge" blade in the description, which I hope means fully serrated as the product description also said it was fully serrated, but the picture was one with a PE blade. I am hoping the picture is just a screw up and the description is correct.

Yes!

PE = Plain edge
PS = Partially serrated
SE = Full Serrated Edge

Spyderedge is the type of serrations used by Spyderco, so a PS blade has a partial Spyderedge. Therefor when refered to Spyderedge blade this is a reference to a fully serrated blade.

Thanks - This is the one I ordered a couple of.

The picture is of a PE blade, but the description says:
Spyderco Endura 4 Lightweight Spyder Edge Knife...

....Product Features
Latest evolution of one of the most popular knives ever made
Flat-ground VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel blade with a fully serrated (SpyderEdge) cutting edge...
So I am hoping the picture is just a stock photo of an Endura or a mess up.

Spyderedge refers to the serration pattern Spyderco uses, so it and can be used to describe the serrations on both fully serrated and part serrated Spyderco blades, but should not be used to describe a plain edge. How dealers use it is another story, given that many other terms get misused and abused in ads.

I want 2 more fully serrated ones, so I guess I will wait and see what they send, and if the dealer mislabeled it, I will send it back....thanks.

I just sent the seller the following email through the Amazon site, so hopefully I will get a response before they ship out:
I just ordered a couple of Spyderco Enduras from you with the Spyder Edge blade (which means fully serrated) in the description:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o00_s00_i00

The picture is of a PE blade, but the description says:

(Spyderco Endura 4 Lightweight "Spyder Edge" Knife...

....Product Features
Latest evolution of one of the most popular knives ever made
Flat-ground VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel blade with a "fully serrated" (SpyderEdge) cutting edge...)

I only want the fully serrated version for farm work, so I am hoping the picture is just a stock photo of an Endura or a simple mistake. Please let me know if these are fully serrated. If they are not, I will cancel the order. Thank you.
