A question about posting. How long until my post stop getting delayed for review? I've made a few posts that I don't think ever showed up.

Thanks,
Andy

Just discovered the Mule Team even though I've been a Spyderco fan for many years.
I saw the announcement of the HIC and managed to get one. I was going to put some wood/resin sales on it, but didn't want to risk marring up the blade, so also ordered the G-10 scales. Then because I had the wood/resin scales I didn't want to go to waste, I ordered a CPM REX T15 to wrap them around.
I can see this being yet another hobby that keeps my out of my wife's hair.
I also do a little road racing, watch making and shooting.
The Myrtle is my EDC and one of my favorites.

I’ve lost a bunch of pocket knives so I got to try a whole bunch and keep getting new favourites. Carried Native5 s30v(2), chaperel xts(x4), police 4 k390(x2) and now a manix 2 m390. I like k390 best but just switched to m390. For tool steel I cheat and a guided diamond sharpener/strop or can’t get it to treetop arm hair. Never tried a mule, will be trying aebl, 15v and k294. I’d like to see how sharpe I can get them and see how they are to use and resharpen. Also want to gift a friend a good really sharp fixed blade for light “outdoor use” in aebl

They just arrived!
Took a quick peek, the hic was to me surprisingly sharp but not as sharp as the aebl and k294.
I am not confident I can get any better(I will try) on the hic but the others should get sharper with some stropping.
Will be gifting one of the aebl mules, its corrosion resistant and more likely to respond well to the sharpening tools my buddy has(synthetic two sided stone and a piece of leather). I am still impressed with m390 sharpness with just a bit of stropping weekly. I have used it to dry shave a missed patch on my face and it was gone in a swipe.

I recently got my MT46P and I'm so happy with it! I was checking it out and thinking, how cool is it, that I just got a Magnamax fixed blade for $75. Then I started thinking, why is Spyderco selling a Magnamax fixie for $75? I knew the answer immediately. It's because they want feedback... I've been participating in this project for some time, and haven't contributed. This knife is so cool, and I'm so grateful that Spyderco does this, that I had to jump in.

I posted my rope cut test results in the MT46P test thread.

Thank you Spyderco for maintaining this project! I will do a better job of participating

Hi Mule Team,

After nearly 30 years of carrying Spyderco (my Delica dates back to ’95!), this is both my first forum post and my first Mule Team knife. I’ve made some knives before, so starting with a blank was fun—not intimidating. With all the resources out there (and access to a 3D printer), I quickly made some basic scales, though I’ll eventually swap in dymondwood or homemade micarta. I also whipped up a Kydex sheath to keep it secure.

I was lucky to snag the MagnaMax and will be using it as intended—and sharing my experiences as I go. Reading the forum, I know not everyone (including long-time Mule testers) got one this round, and I hope that changes for the future.

Excited to keep learning and sharing with everyone here.
My first pocketknife was an Delica 1 in 1995. They seem to have multiplied since then......
