Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Worried that I may need to sit on my knife today, and couldn't think of a better carry. I hope it's not too squishy...


So it goes.

Ah, this model shan't be tarnished. I gift the Chap to people who don't typically carry a knife. I think it is a fantastic introduction to Spyderco.

Be very careful not to develop rust spots! You better wash it every 5-10 minutes!

I need this knife to look unused in ten years. I use my knife daily 300' cardboard plus I leave it soaking in blood for hours every couple of days. Should I be worried? I heard that the thin blade of my knife may not be good for lasting 10 years. Is there anything I can do different? I want XHP to have very high edge retention with no corrosion, is this possible?
I want to make my knife twice as thick as I heard FRN is very squishy. Will this be okay? Can I trade my Chaparral knife for Techno knife? I hear titanium is thicker and stronger, will my knife corrode?
Help with sharpmaker please, I want to reprofile my knife to cut for many years will this be possible on the white rods? I want to sharpen my knife everyday, but don't want any steel removed because I want this knife to look pristine in 10 years.
Please help. I hear that the nails in my knife may corrode if I wash it. Is there something I can do different?
ETA: In jest.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Seems like I’ve missed something, and that’s just fine!
FWIW, a good knife (in even a modestly edge-retentive steel like 154cm) used to cut things for 10 years shouldn’t be anywhere close to being worn out. I do realize that as a group we find reasons to use a knife where none really exist…

Love how the edge goes all the way to the handle on this and the Resilience. I sharpened up my G10 Resilience last night and the build quality is really impressive for the price. Planning to carry it tomorrow. Haven't touched it since I got the lightweight version, but the G10 version definitely has a nicer overall feel to it.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
i haven't bought a lw resilience yet. waiting for s35vn to be released. i plan on swapping scales out though when i get it because i agree that it's a great feeling knife. i also may end up skipping it altogether because i'm a little bitter about it increasing in price before it released.vivi wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 11:05 amLove how the edge goes all the way to the handle on this and the Resilience.

the astute has just as good fit and finish as my resilience. actually, the edges are a little sharper, but that has never bothered me like it does some. at any rate, it's really a great budget knife. i wouldn't recommend it for you though, unless you're looking for a three finger knife.
