Spyderco Forums

I have seen some knife drawings on some of the threads, so I wanted to have a central spot to put everyone's drawings.

(Post whatever type of drawing you want, weather it be colored or a sketch!)

I´ll start things out with a few of my drawings.

That looks great Boomer! I love the 3d effect.

Mockup of a Manix XL with no choil

Check this out... Someone just posted this mod on the Exchange and I thought of your posts about this:



Para Manix 2 XL, CPM-S30V
This is literally the first Spyderco I ever bought. I had it for years before I sold it to a friend, and then I missed having it so I traded back again. He and I have both put some work into it, and done some work with it. The blade has been reground to a more paramilitary 2 style blade shape, is thinner behind the edge, and the choil has been removed. The lock spring has been loosened to make unlocking the knife easier, but the lockup itself is as solid as ever. The knife drops shut as is, and there is no up or down blade play. You can feel a little bit side to side if you try, but I have found with most factory models there is always a trade-off between drop shut or some slight side to side wiggle. It will not affect the function of the knife. I modded the handle to be more neutral and comfortable, but retained the jimping in the finger groove for security against slipping forward, and the pinky hook will prevent slipping back.

Man that's really cool. Thanks for posting it.
