#1

Post by bodie123 »

Has anyone heard what models are being discontinued? I heard Spyderco puts out a list in October.

They've decided to discontinue the PM 2. Something about quitting while they're ahead.

Usually the discontinued list is released in November, if I recall correctly, and late November, at that.

I used to hate these treads. Many of my favorite knives got axed. Not a concern this time. I have back-up for all my favorites.

Welcome. The internet lacks intonation and body language, so I don't know if you knew that zhyla's post was a joke. It's a joke.

It does, and thanks for posting. It proves that there is no "hard and fast" date for the release of the list - it varies.

You're very welcome. I'm pretty sure my good credit rating is going to end up on this year's disco list! And they haven't even released the Rubicon yet! :eek:

Welcome Jonny! You started out with a great one. The Caly3 and its siblings are my favorite line. The 3.5 should treat you well for a first one.

By the way,What do you fly?
