This was my collection at one point, but most have been traded/given away. The only one that remains from this pic is the Starmate, and I have a UKPK that isn't pictured.

Can all you Bug owners please give me a quick review? :cheers:
Like you Allan it will be the only Spyderco I'd ever own ::)
The look the part and are legal EDC :tu:
Not sure if I'd want it hanging from my keys and getting all scratched up :(
I do like the Captain :salute:
@Zack what do you call the one in the middle, bottom row? Nice :tu: Shame they are all gone but one :cry:

Cerbera thay are absolutely tiny. I can't ever see them being useful for anything but the tiniest of tasks.
This is one dangerous thread :ahhh

Bottom middle is a Cricket. I have sent two of these to GG, very nice little knives. The Orange Rescue I have to my uncle who is SAR, paramedic, and a cop, and he loves the thing. The rest were simply a means to a greater end. Got a lot of other really cool stuff out of them.

That Starmate, Endura PE, Rescue (does it come in PE?), Rookie, Native III, and Walker Lightweight are beautiful. o.o Yes, I'm easily impressed. Does the Walker Lightweight come in PE, or is it CE only?
-
I believe the Rescue comes in PE and I think the Walker was only offered in CE.

Are there any modern contemporaries to the Walker? It looks like it's a good size, and I like the blade profile, if not the edge choice. XD

On Topic: I have a Endura 4, a Native just picked up two Pacific Salts from Spoonrobot.
My thoughts on the Manix 2, its a little bit heavy, don´t know the exact weight, but its almost perfect. They should put a flat grind on it, then its perfect :) Opens really fast, no play at all and it has a really good steel.
I seen a vid on youtube with new Spyderco knives, looks like there will be a blue Manix 2 with s30v steel, flat ground :tu:
You should wait and check this one out. But i like mine, one of my favs.

Thanks Nikos, yeoch that's a pricy knife, though. o.o

Theres a Walker on ebay right now for 45.00. The hard part about finding a Walker is the part that goes over the pivot screw is notorious for falling out since its only a friction fit. That and the clips snap off.
edit: and its a PE.

Argento what knife is that all the way on top in the middle, and the one below it, first with pocket clip shown? Thx, V.
-
If were looking at the same knives a Delica up top and the Endura below. They are earlier versions.
-
Top Delica 3 and down below a newer Delica 4 in ZDP Steel and Blue Handles, was a Sprint Run i believe. The blue handles doesn´t come out very good. very good knife, if you can get an older one, Generation 3, get it, they are much better than the newer ones
-
I like the earlier versions as well. They were liner-less and that to me makes for a better
knife. New for 2010 they are coming out with a flat-grind on the blades which I think will
be a nice change.
-
Thx guys, looking forwards for the FFG Delicas as well (5 new colors I believe, limited/test run). I'm still looking for a Spydie with a FFG blade in size in-between Dragonfly and Delica that is not discontinued (or not hard to find and expencive), Urban fits into this category, but a locking blade would be my first choice. Caly jr is another option but hard to find in PE. Any recommendations? Thx, V :cheers:

Rambler posing for Classic in this pic :cheers:

In fairness, due to there being more metal than on the classic it is easier to manipulate and I would choose it as a cutting tool over a Classic or its ilk. Would I choose it over the blade of a 74mm Vic :think: probably not.

Looks like a fine little pocket knife there Gareth. :tu:

I could wish it a touch bigger and slightly easier to OHO but for the money it's a great deal. Full flat grind, Spyderco standard of F&F, no silly pocket clip (they're just not for me) and even better a slippit for UK legal EDC.

If they were a bit bigger, I'd edc one too :)

If they were a bit bigger, I'd edc one too :)
With a cutting edge of 2" it still falls well within my idea of a useful size for EDC, far more so than the Bug or even the Honeybee.

It's not the length of the blade that's of-putting, more the small handle size :-\
Yeah, I can get that. It's effectively a three finger knife and is comfortable enough for a few minutes or so's work but I wouldn't want to have to to use it all day long.

See I can easily be using a knife for 30, 40 minutes at a time if I'm doing a lot of pruning (prefer to use a knife for a nice clean cut, as opposed to pruners, as they can mangle the plants :-\) so I need a nice, full handle or my hand starts to cramp up after a while :)
-
Really? I find pruners gives a cleaner/safer cut, if the blade is sharp of course. (unless it's one of those cheap ones where frame flex too much)
-
Still don't like the 3Cr13 steel, but for light tasks the Grasshopper should still suffice.

There fine for the first 7/8th's of the cut, then they chew up the last 1/8th ::)
-
Strange, are you sure the blade is sharp and doesn't have gap between the arm thing?

Thanks for posting the Grasshopper pics Gareth :tu: I'm going to have to pick one up to keep company for my Bug and Honeybee :cheers:
-

It's mine so it is sharp :)
No gap either as I have it tightened as much as possible :)

Loepis, Nice Persistance. Mine ownership was very short lived with it when a friend of mine
saw it and needed to have it. I always liked it a bit better than the Tenacious just because
of it's size.
Chili, very nice USN. :tu:

They were made by a very nice chap in the US. He had a thread on CPF where he made lots of new scales. He had a great set up, scanner, PC, CNC minimill. I don't think he's making scales now, a real shame as I'm always being asked "where did you get them?"
-
Wow Guys those are some really nice pics of some really nice knives.
Below is a picture of the only Spyderco I own (I did have one other ???). My Dad bought me this one for my 13th and it copped an absolute hiding over the 16 years I have owned it. I can remember the day that I got it I must have opened and closed it a million times.
This was the first good quality knife that I had ever owned and probably one that I have used the most. It has done every thing from split kindling to work as a money clip and not missed a beat.
-
Below is a picture of the only Spyderco I own ...............
I'm pretty sure that's another co pilot with a serrated edge ?

It definitely looks that way. I have always called it a Ladybug even though it isn't :oops:. I don't mix with any knife enthusiasts so I have never been caught out.
-
Its a Co-Pilot. Does it have brass liners 65b. It looks like an early one to me.

It is.
And co-pilots are stupidly tough to get a hold of in good condition these days.
-

Yeah it definitely has brass liners. I had it given to me in January of 1994 and I am not sure that it was a new knife when I got it.

Then it is out of one of the earlist batches of CoPilots. There is more info here http://www.spydiewiki.com/index.php?title=C09_CoPilot. The Copilot is a favorite of mine. I dont usually like little knives but I really like the CoPilot.
-
Andrew those are a couple of nice ones.

And co-pilots are stupidly tough to get a hold of in good condition these days.
Yeh tell me about it!, it took me ages to find one. Great little knife.
-
eodtech, yup two very nice knives. I saw a matri through the glass the other day albeit serrated.
I'll bet that persian will be a very nice little slicer.
-
Previous owner tried to make it tip up and somehow managed to snap the screw inside the handle, so I got it for pretty cheap. :D
Removed the hump on back of handle so it feels much better in hand.

Thanks, it's quite easy to do with a belt sander (use the roller part not flat part), I would imagine a dremel can do it too.

The wife has the camera right now but I have a spyderco that i dont think anyone has posted a pic of. I try to post one later but I have the Kris bladed Spyderco. It is kind of special and usually resides in the safe.

May have to dig out and polish up the Police today now.

And three days after I get it back, I try and open it and one of the washers tears and comes right out of the pivot. GAH! Right back to Spyderco.
Breaking stuff left and right these days...

I wonder if it could be because the PO never lubed the knife and simply wore down the washers, and the thinnest part finally broke.

The captain is on my list of spydercos to get, maybe as a birthday or Christmas present to myself lol it sure is a sweet blade, somehow reminds me of an Emerson commander. Maybe it's the recurve or something.

I always liked the captain. Never got around to buying one though. Next Spyderco I buy will be the civillian. I wanted one for a long time, the blade is just plain fearsome, and lets face it, the blade wasnt made for buttering toast. >:D

I'm convinced that spyderco is the one brand than never disappoints me and keeps me coming back for more. I appreciate their designs, ergonomics, materials, quality and price point. I've owned spydercos over the years and have bought, sold and traded a lot over the years but I hang onto my spyderco knives. They just embody what the whole industry is about. Maybe a pic is in order of my collection, may not be the best quality but you get the idea.

0.2 oz is almost nothing, you probably can't tell the difference if you have one in each hand.

(http://www.gulftel.com/gnoza/ebay/c139.jpg)
That particular designer (Jason Breeden) certainly has a very distinctive "look" to his knives, doesn't he? If I remember correctly, he was the designer behind the Spyderco Captain as well.

That would be correct. And I want them both...
-
The Spyderco Captain design was the first thing that came across my mind as wel.
And, o yeah, I want both as well :D
-
Not sure how but I seem to have collected a few Spyderco's :think:
Could be worse though :D

Apparently the 117V on the Orange one is in relation to Spyderco's Collector Program. Does anyone have any further info on it?

There is something wrong with your foliage green Sprint run Manix.
I think you should send it to me for a "long term inspection". :rofl: :rofl:
Thats one that I missed out on and would really like to pick up sometime when I get a little extra cash again.

I will have to agree with you that Spyderco makes some truly ugly looking knives. However when you actually handle the blades you instantly forgive the strange shape when you feel how well the knife fits your hand.
Other manufacturers certainly make better looking knives. Spyderco however makes knives to be used and you would be hard pressed to find another manufacturer with comparable ergonomics and price.

They do grow on you and eventually you start to compare other brands to Spyderco. Spyderco also pioneered and introduced into mainstream many knife features we associate with modern folding knives today.

I agree a knife's beauty is directly related to its functionality and there are few others which can compete. (I need more Spydies!)

That one had me go WTF for a second there! :D

That last one was personally designed and fabricated for me by Sal Glesser at Spyderco. The scales are fabricated from heat shield tiles taken from the Columbia space shuttle, and the blade steel is a special alloy mined from Siberian meteorites and ice-quenched in a Russian nuclear reactor for unsurpassed edge retention.
Or maybe its just a Dragonfly G10 that I stretched with photoshop.

Downtown Toronto. :D j/k
Actually, I was planning on using it for some Spring yardwork. Up until yesterday, the weather was great so I brought it out to help clear up some of the overhanging vines in my backyard. Unfortunately, most of Ontario got hit with a freak snowstorm yesterday so my Rock Salt is now sidelined until the snow melts.

I would have more if they had a warranty like LMs though.

On an impulse I ordered an FRN Robin 2 from Knifecenter tonight...
I've been jonesing for a nice USA made spydie, like a Manix 2 or a Sage 2, but like so many other toys er, I mean tools, I want to buy, I've got to save my pennies to get one... But I just couldn't resist any longer and needed something new to play with, and got the Robin.
I start getting paid from my new job next month, so I'm going to see if I can talk my wife into letting me have a little spending money... :rofl:
So THAT means I'll have to decide what I want more, a Manix or a Crunch... :think:

Have you considered getting a Native? US-made, tough as all get out and a classic Spyderco design that's been around for a long time. Also, relatively expensive for Golden Spydies (bested only by the UKPK FRN)
Yes, my first H1 knife.
The edge retention is horrible. Didn't take me long to part with mine. :-\
Unfortunately true. I got a Ladybug Hawkbill H1 to replace my sprint run Hawkbill and it just didn't hold a candle in terms of edge retention. I've heard H1 falls somewhere around AUS 6 in terms of retention would be better than most titanium non-rusting options, but not great.
-
I wouldnt call H1s edge retension horrible. The good news is it does resharpen easily when needed. At least that my experience with H1 and I`ve used it alot. :)
-
The only H1 I have is serrated hawkbill I clip to my swimming shorts, don't see the need for it otherwise, although I'm thinking I need to switch to a sheepsfoot version instead.

Nice looking. How do you like the CF handles?
-
Initially I didn't want the CF, as it looked a bit flashy, with the 3D sort of effect. Now I think they are fine. I like how thin they are, and I can't imagine them showing up scratches too easily. Unfortunately its illegal to actually carry this one in this country, so I can't speak for its practical utility.
-
Nice Delica.
-
Thanks guys,I actually like the Black Clip. I think it complements the handle nicely.

:o that sucks. I love the look of that knife, but the pocket clip ruins it for me.
-
I'd love to get a Sage 1... I still might, but the cost for a single knife is a bit steep for me.
I have an FRN Dragonfly 2 and an FRN Endura 4 FFG on order. The DF2 will be my pocket EDC, and the Endura will live in my cycling bag.
I still want a Sage though... :ahhh
-
two new spyders: native 1, and ukpk drop point g10. I like the aesthetic of the native, many people find it ugly. it is such a neat comfortable knife though. I especially like the roughened texture on the choil, as opposed to jimping. The UKPK I actually carry, there's more photos on the ukpk thread.

Here's my two Spydies, both recent arrivals. How did I live without a Spyderco? :think:
(http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g448/Jerseydevil379/delica_ukpk.jpg)
UKPK drop point and Delica FFG. I love both of these knives! The Delica is just flat(ground)-out awesome, and the UKPK is a great knife at work. My folder gets a ton of use at the store ( I HATE box cutters!), and I was looking for something that wouldn't scare the smurf out of customers when I use it. The UKPK is perfect for that, quick out and back into the pocket, not too big. The Delica was bought to be my non-work EDC, but I'm sure it will see time at the store as well. The question is which Spyderco will join the family next?
-
Well, that sure didn't take long ::). Which Spyderco is joining the collection next?
(http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/g448/Jerseydevil379/sage1.jpg)
Sage 1 carbon fiber. I saw it in a store today, played with it a bit, and saw that the price was actually pretty reasonable. It came home with me, and proved it was sharp as hell by immediately biting me! Nice knife, despite its' thirst for blood.......
-
very fine knife :cheers:

I've been wanting the Sage 1 for quite sometime now. I have the same Delica as you, and I absolutely love it. Are the two comparable?

spyderco is just plain awesome.

In terms of size and weight, yes they are. The Sage feels a bit more comfortable in the pocket, and the clip allows for more discreet carry. The Delica's grip is, well, grippier. At work that's an advantage, plus the fact that I don't want to have the Sage around the perils of the paint store at the moment. They're both great knives, and I love them both. But for daily mucking about, I'm going with the Sage. At work, Delica all the way for now. For looks, it's no contest really, as you can see. the Sage is one sexy knife.......

I hadn't owned a Spyderco until about a month ago. How did I ever get through life without one? I have three now, and I'm sure that number will grow by the end of the year. If just for the lefty-friendly aspect of these, I should have been all over them. I have learned the error of my ways. :angel:

I agree, the Delica is an awesome EDC blade. Initially, I thought the clip on the Sage was going to be pretty flimsy, I would have like the same clip that the Delica and Endura's share on there.
-
I Really Like The Wire Clip And It Holds Up Way Better Than You Would Expect. At First I Really Didn't Like The Look Of It, But Over Time And After I Owned One With A Wire Clip I Absolutely Loved It. Deep Pocket Carry, Less Noticeable, And Over All Just Less Bulky, But Don't Get Me Wrong I Love Just About Any Clip.
The Delica And Sage Would Be Comparable In Size And Weight And The Cutting Performance Of Both Great, But There Is A Difference In Steel, Handle Material, And Of Course Looks.
-
The wire clip is great. Nice deep carry, and sturdier than it looks. Just another plus for the Sage.

-
My newest spydie would be a purple endura.
-
I discovered Spydercos this last spring, when I got a Tenacious... as soon as I got it, I was immediately hooked. I kept telling myself; "this knife is awesome, how could they possibly make something better than this?"
Well, then I got a gray FRN Endura 4 FFG...
Then an orange Delica...
Then a Dragonfly 2...
Then a Stretch 2...
Then I got a Byrd Wings...
Now, I still want a Sage 1; and a Resilience; and a Rock Lobster; and a Jester; and a Dyad Jr.; and a...
It's a sickness!!! :ahhh
-
That It Is.
I Hate Not Having Money As I'd Love To Just Treat Myself To A Really Nice Knife I Want.
But, I'm Working On Getting Some Trades For Some Spydercos, If Anyone Is Willing To Get Rid Of Any Lol.
I Have A Huge Lot Of Stuff For Trade Lol.
-
Yeah eh? For many men and some women, there's something about a well made mechanical device that's like crack to the mind.
-
Yeah Pretty Much.
-
Yeah Pretty Much.
No doubt.
The Spydie I'm really jonesing for the most now isn't the Sage 1, it's the Rock Lobster... I love the design and the details of the knife, like the fully recessed scales and the way the blade completely nests in the handle when closed. The sheepsfoot style too is exactly the kind of shape I like for a general purpose utility knife.
I just wish it didn't cost so bloody much... :(
-
It Is An Expensive Knife. The Spyderco I Want Most Is Probably A Fluted Titanium Military.
I Need To Trade This Stuff And Get It Out Of Here!!! Lol. So If Any Of You Decide You Have Some Things To Trade, Let Me Know I Have A Bunch Of Stuff Ready To Go.

Just received this in a trade. Spyderco tenacious with black and white waved g10 and black duracoat blade and parts. :2tu:

Spyderco Mule Team 12 made with Cruwear steel. This is the re-release. The first had tempering problems and were recalled. The MT12 that were retempered and re-release have a line under the CRUWEAR has shown in the second photo. If the line is not there dont but it. There are some on the bay trying to sell first released MT12`s so buyer beware. I added a pic of the first release MT12 CRUWEAR marking to show the difference.

I like the look of the Manix. I don't care for the overly broad leaves or the raised Spyderhole on some models. The lines are much more defined on the Manix, Native, etc. in my opinion. :tu:
-
I've bought some Spydies in the past,mostly limited editions such as Viele, Herbst, Centofante, Wegner,Scott, Terzuola,Lum ect.,ect.I slowed my purchase of Spydies some years ago but I had to have this Vallotton.
Here is the Vallotton that I bought last year.

Here are my Spyderco's. I recently got the Blue G10 Ambitious which is pretty cool little knife. I've been carrying my Tenacious mostly for work and the Ambitious for off days.
-
NOT mine, but OH HOW I WISH IT WAS!
The knife dealer I've been going to lately has been taking care of me. So I recently ordered a Manix 2 with G10 handles. I wanted a satin finish one for myself, but all he had was the black coated version, so I scooped it up for my brother-in-law's upcoming birthday.
My first time handling/seeing a Spyderco in person. THAT'S A WHOLE LOT OF KNIFE FOR THE PRICE. The handle design, the materials, the blade steel. OMFG I HAVE TO HAVE ONE NOW!! :drool:
Why am I such a good gift giver? I could... you know... just keep it for myself... :whistle:

I would hold out for a satin blade myself. But if you decide to keep it, I won't tell :-X
-
I plan to sawman, I don't really care for black coated on my hard working knives. It's not detrimental, but the friction difference between satin and black on heavy duty cutting irks the smurf out of me. Almost like nails on a chalkboard.
It's just a matter of waiting for my guy to get one in at an affordable price or caving in to paying the higher premium to the Bay of Thieves... :facepalm:
-
After trying a few Spydercos, I think I finally found the perfect one for me; the Caly 3.5.
My first Spydie was a Delica. I was impressed by how light the knife was, and I like the VG-10 steel. However, I never could warm up the the FRN handles.
Next, I tried a Paramilitary 2 after reading all the rave reviews. It is a really cool knife. The pivot is super smooth allowing the knife to be quickly flicked open. The ergonomics are great. The knife feels like an extension of the hand. Yet despite all this, it just isn't for me. The knife, especially the handle, is just too big for my tastes.
This week, I got the Caly 3.5 and love it. The handle shape reminds me a bit of the Delica. It is thin and contoured. It is also roughly the same size closed as the Delica, measuring only 2mm longer. Yet it has a blade length that is 16mm (5/8 in.) longer than the Delica. This equates to the same blade length as the PM2, but in a much smaller package. I posted some comparison pictures below.
The Caly 3.5 isn't regarded as a hard use knife, which is fine by me. I don't have a need for my pocket knife to be able to stab through sheet metal or split firewood. Despite its reputation as more of a gentlemanly knife, it feels very well built. It has 3mm blade stock, and stainless steel liners with G10 handles attached. The lockback design results in a solid back. Aesthetically, I love the feel that the solid back gives the knife. It reminds me of a slipjoint with the back springs and liners ground together such that they appear as one solid piece of metal running the entire back of the handle.
This knife has a deep pocket wire clip that I also really like. I don't necessarily like to advertise the fact I am carrying a knife. With the Caly 3.5, the entire knife stays concealed in the pocket. The wire clip is also much less visible on the outside. With its grey color, it camouflages itself well when wearing blue jeans.
The aesthetics of this knife remind me of an alox SAK. Thin, yet very solid. Gentlemanly, but tough enough to handle any reasonable tasks that comes its way.

Unfortunalty the early LB's steel were not stamped on the blade as they are today. According to Spydiewiki (http://www.spydiewiki.com/index.php?title=L_Ladybug#Generation_1) Gen 1 LRD could have been made with G-2, AUS 6 or AUS 8. Gen 1 LB were made from 1990 to 2003. LRD were made from 1994 to 2003. :)

It's big, it's beefy, it's my first Spydie. The Manix 2 XL
Despite the size, I find it carries rather well. I absolutely love the handle, I find it to be the most comfortable grip I've felt on a knife in a long time.

I hear the H-1 in Spyder edge holds a edge longer than the Plain Edge version as its RH is higher. Not that I have had any issues with my Plain Edge version though. Just figured I would put it out their in case you did not know.

I hear the H-1 in Spyder edge holds a edge longer than the Plain Edge version as its RH is higher. Not that I have had any issues with my Plain Edge version though. Just figured I would put it out their in case you did not know.
Do you have any H-1 Spyderco's?
I don't have any H-1 blades yet.
Not really into serrations as I'm not needing them atm.
That could change though if I get into kayaking etc.
-
H1 doesnt nold an edge as well as some other steels but it is easy to sharpen. I have used it a lot in the past and can testify to the fact it will not rust. J havent tried an SE H1 yet. But like capt I hear good things about it.

Nice ones Capt!

Thanks. :tu:
You wouldn't happen to have any aftermarket deep carry clips for the Delica you would be willing to get rid of do you?
-
No Capt I dont. The Delicas I have have standard clips.

Four varitions of the Military with S30V and black G10.

No worries at all. Figured I would ask just in case.
Excellent Military shot. I sold the one I had (Digi Camo black blade) as they do not offer tip up carry, but the knife is incredible. Even though I never carried it due to the tip down carry I wish I never got rid of it.

How you likin H1 Capt? Pic of my favorite Salt I.
I love the Salt series. I love the salt series so much I might just start buying those from now on. I have always wanted to try and accumulate all the recent salt knives.
Good thing is they will last forever in storage with no worries of them ever rusting.
Right now I have
Dragonfly 2
Salt 1
Pacific Salt (Satin)
Pacific Salt (BO)
-
I really like the bladeshape on that Salt 1 :tu: not a lot of Spydies without a really pointy blade.
-
The only Spyderco's I have now are the Salt 1 in PE and SE and the PM2 sprint run cts-204p.
The Salt 1 PE is the one I carry daily! I like that one alot!

It is said the serrated H-1 holds a edge better than the plain edge as well. I believe it is a harder RC.

That is my understanding too as H1 is known as "work hardened" so by putting the serrations in, it has heat treated the edge which makes it tougher, which provides better edge retention!
@ Aloha007 - The Spydie serrations do look bad a** that is for sure!! :) I am not a serrations guy but had to pick this one up as I got it for a great price! It is NIB and just resides in my small duffle bag with my few other toys! :)

Goodness with this all being said I'll be on the look out now for a Salt H1 SE.
I came on MTo with ZERO Sypdercos now I have like 7 :whistle:. These knives are pretty addicting.

Nice. But it goes for $280 while this http://www.actionitems.gr/patenta/Victorinox-Hunter-XS-0.8331.MC9.html goes for €40.
I was thinking about a Clippit type with the 2 blades on the same side and the serrated blade thumbhole near the edge, hopping it would cost around $100.

A few collaborations from the past.
Peter Herbst.
Howard Viele.
Lum Tanto.

This is a Spyderco fixed blade designed for Bushcraft.
-
Here is a limited run with polished carbon fiber handles.
-
Those are some sweet blades. :drool:
Are the scales on the Bushcraft a custom order?
And is the edge hollow ground or scandi? Looks hollow ground by the pics. :think:

It wasn't a custom order but it was a limited run.
The knife has a scandi grind which is better suited for battoning.

Here are two limited collaborations that were designed specifically as Hunters.
The first is a Tim Wegner C48.

Nice blade.
Congrats.

I usually carry Spyderco Manix 2 XL. Its a pretty good piece of folding knife which is so perfect for everyday carry. I want to know that are they going to stay good for longer period of time or not?

Early Christmas present from the missus.
Caly 3.5 in VG-10/G10 handle.
Absolutely love it, I can't believe how much blade they managed to cram into that handle. Saddened to discover it was recently discontinued. I could see myself buying a spare to have on hand. I really dig the deep carry wire clip too.
A post on another board summed it up nicely: "An almost Endura sized blade in an almost Delica sized handle".

I just love the look of Spyderco knives! I only have one, but have a few on my list that I'd like to get.
DMac what the heck?

Sorry, but with the Canadian Whisky I've been drinking, I'm lucky that I can even type! :D I have a Spyderco Breeden Rescue, and it's an awesome knife!!

Just because you are in Canada does not mean it is Canadian whiskey. That would be like someone from Bejing calling his food Chinese food. That don't happen he just calls it food.
Nice Spydie though.

Hey :twak:
I've actually got more Spydies that DMac :pok:
Admittedly one is pink,and the others are the super cheap ones(except the one Zed put the scales on which is supercool),but they're still Spydies!

I thought I'd share my first Spyderco knife I ever owned, sometime in the 90's I started out with these handy one hand opening clipit knives.
Can't recall exactly when, over 20 years ago I think.
At one stage I broke the tip and ground the blade down to meet the new tip.
Carried this one for a long time until I got an Endura and a Native.
I was visiting my Dad and he said he had one of my old knives in a box somewhere, I probably have not seen this knife for 10 years.
It's good to have an old daily companion back but boy have things progressed.
A budget Byrd meadowlark kicks this knifes ass in every aspect but it was "cutting edge" back then.
OHO, a pocket clip and AUS8 steel, high tech.

I have always had a fondness for the Native model. My G 10 version is gorgeous.
I liked it so much that I got a FRN version to carry and use but it was horrible. The pin was way too tight on it and you needed two hands to open it one handed. I was so dismayed. I ended up trading it off although I have been tempted to try another one. Someday.

Para 2 came with most every steel you can find on a American made Spyderco at one time or another. D2, 90V, 30V, CTS-204P (My favorite), 35VN, M390, 154/90V laminate, Elmax and some more I prolly forgot.
Such a popular model I am sure there will be more at some point.

I'll let you know if I do. :tu:
Fix it up? :think: Theirs nothing wrong with it. Could use a cleaning and sharpening though.

Carried my Rookie today. I can't decide if I want to keep the rookie or not. I might end up putting it up for trade.

Ja boet...I also need to get a pm2 of my own...don't need a sprint run one, just a normal one will be fine, then when we get our one day of sun here in the UK I can post pics of it beside the braai as well...

A basic Para Military 2 is my main carry knife, on the mud island where you cant carry anything I would get a Military for braai duty.
No I would get a Chokwe, I want one bad, does anyone have one to sell me before I pull the trigger on one of the large dealers?
Sprint Military - Orange Crucible s30v
Sprint PM2 - Green Carpenter 204p

After years of not having a pocket clip for this knife I finally ordered one. I wanted the older squared style, but was told they did not carry those anymore. To my surprise when it arrived it was the squared version. I also ordered the stainless version which is for the rescue knives, but I like how it looks on the Delica.

Nothing is wrong! I got the Tenacious and Persistence. All of these three are medium sized, not great sized...
I bet I got bigger hands than you. That Ambitious should be as confortable for you as the other two are for me. Quick to deploy, cut like laser, love the sound of the lock getting into place.

Hey, Shark, or anyone else who has 2 cents to put in - I have a question regarding the BYRD line ... are they of a lesser quality or comparable to Spyderco? I'm asking because only recently have I gotten into "regular" knives and these two brands look soooo similar. So ... is BYRD a daughter company or what? Also, here, the BYRD knives are cheaper and way more affordable... so ... what's the difference? Are the Spydies necessarily better than the BYRDS just for being Spyderco? :D
Thanks :tu:

Spyderco is to Byrd what Volkswagen is to SEAT. Basically the same, Byrd is a little less demanding in quality control and finishing. Still good but not the top o'the line.

Thanks! It was confusing because... it looks like Spyderco, still, the .. hole's not like Spyderco's...

Yes, Byrd is Spyderco's sister company. Yes they are of lesser quality. The Byrd knives are less expensive and for good reason in my opinion. The quality and feel just isn't their on the Byrd's in my opinion. I tried to like them and owned 3 or 4 different models, but I just really do not like the Byrd knives at all. YMMV.
-
I personally cannot see a difference in quality between the Byrd and the Tenacious/Ambitious family.
Comparing G10 versions of course.
The Byrd FRN ones fall short when compared to the Japanese Seki City FRN models.
If you only have a budget Spyderco then Byrd will be a great addition.
Until you get your first Taichung ;)

Can't say really anything about the Byrd line, but the Tenacious line is really a good bang for the buck. roughly 6 years of rough and dumbass use and it's ticking like a Swiss watch
-
Oookay, thanks, guys! You were very helpful :salute: So, yeah, since I've only had the Ambitious so far and as ... the price of the dollar keeps rising, I'll hardly be willing to buy another one of the better models. So... the BYRDs may be a good idea for something in between - to get an idea of the larger Spydercos and still not overspend :D

I get what you are saying, but I would personally just save the money you would spend on the Byrd and put it towards a higher end Spyderco. Just my opinion though.

The FRN or what ever they are made from handled knives as someone said above don't seem to have the feel or quality of Spyderco but this Stainless steel one does . I handled a few different ones in the shop and this all metal one was way ahead of the others .
This one doesn't get carried much any more but travels in the truck and is a backup for my Delica and is the knife I loan to people on occasions at work .
I would buy another one if the need arises , it is a great budget knife .

Made a new scale for my Chokwe. It's a great knife, but wasn't liking the stock G-10 scale that much.

Oookay, thanks, guys! You were very helpful :salute: So, yeah, since I've only had the Ambitious so far and as ... the price of the dollar keeps rising, I'll hardly be willing to buy another one of the better models. So... the BYRDs may be a good idea for something in between - to get an idea of the larger Spydercos and still not overspend :D
A few things make a Spyderco, design and ergonomic elements, quality of components and quality of manufacture.
I would really suggest a Byrd Meadowlark 2 G10 as it gives serious Spyderco design elements, with great manufacturing but does so with 8cr13mov steel.
Many classic Spyderco knives are back lock with great finger rests and choils, this follows these design elements with good build and some Byrd style changes.
Then get a PM2 and be spoilt for the rest of your life.
-
G10 over skeletonised stainless liners, flat ground blade with good jimping on thumb rest and choil.
Steel shapenens well and is easily maintained, clip might as well come off a Spyderco.
Has a good weight that balances it in the hand and makes it feel solid and more expensive than it is.

I really want a byrd tern now :facepalm:
-
Yeah, I already want a BYRD like the one that @harronek showed :drool:
Also, Don't know what all the hype about the G10 is.... I didn't know what to expect again, but... it just feels like cheap plastic :X :facepalm: :sorry:

Ok, still, not to go too off-topic, my guy, the one and only:

@NNR, Now to learn to open your Spyderco all the "fancy" ways.
-
I think NNR should get a Balisong next. And learn how to open it all the cool ways.
Now that I thinks about that, maybe not.
Nate
-
:rofl:
Anyway, it's still stiff, the thing. I manage to open it in a "cool" way with my thumb like four out of six times (what a ratio) which annoys me :D I don't get WHY it's so stiff while people in vids seem to do it really easy.
As for the other cool ways... I guess there's the same problem. Though the so called "spydie drop" is the easiest because of the gravitation, I guess, but a bit pointless in my opinion, just "cool".

You could just loosen the screw a bit?

Thanks guys. The wood is Pacific Yew. I harvested it in January last year from an area I was building trails in. Left it to dry in the shade for 12 months then took it to a friends shop and milled it. Let the boards dry for another couple of months then made some scales for a couple of SAKs and this Chokwe. Pacific Yew is the closest we have to a hard wood around here (mostly fir, cedar, and hemlock in my area). Sanded it to 600 grit.

Just wondering what made you come to that conclusion?
-
I'd had a UKPK Rescue knife off Ashley a while back. Loved the blade,felt the backspring was over soft,and the scales were meh.
The Ladybugs just weren't as good as my Byrd Finch. The Byrd had much better ergonomics for a fraction of the price. Also the Ladybirds struck out at work as box bashers.
I like my Squeak a lot better,even being pink,but could never justify its UK selling price.
Perci's UK price is much more reasonable(no fancy steels),and having traded for a Vic Farmer,I can't complain about the price ;)

Well I have been jumping from one folder to another this week, but decided to bring out a old favorite for the summer time. I normally carry a H-1 during the summer so I do not have to worry about rust. Rust (for me) is pretty much guaranteed in the summer months. So the Pacific Salt gets the call and I am thinking I will carry it throughout the summer.

Cool!

I find the shape of the H-1 blade very appealing. Add black coating and you have a very stealthy piece :D

Spyderco Ladybug Salt got edc keychain duty this nice Mother's Day morning, in my pocket as I was first in line (ok there was no line, and that's a shame) to donate blood (Double Red (http://www.lifesouth.org/drives/types-of-donations/double-red/)) in the blood mobile that was at my folk's church for the day. :)

Oh yea! This is actually the knife that gave me that very deep cut on my finger. I have said it before and I will say it again. Every single time I pick up a knife I remember that cut and it makes me a bit more careful.

Ha! That was actually me going with the 'lightweight' edc spare keychain rotation, as I was thinking the nurses might make me climb on the scales to check my weight before letting me donate blood. More often than not, I have a couple more things clipped to the keyring (9.2 ounces with the lanyard), and that's just my left front pocket. Suspenders help, lol... :D

Sweet! First impressions?
It's a little sucker for sure, but I knew that before ordering it. It vanishes in a pocket, so light you don't even know it's there. Despite its size, one handed opening is no problem at all, and I can get a three-finger grip on it when it's open. Build quality is great, opening and closing is smooth, and the lockup is great. It came shaving sharp out of the box. I used it to open some packages and cut tape and bubble wrap in the warehouse, it really is a razor. I like small knives, and this one is a winner so far. :tu: I'm going to put a small lanyard on it so it's easy to find in my pocket, and it's going to spend the day at work tomorrow.

Awesome! Adding the lanyard will give you a great grip as well. I did it with my ladybug a while back and its perfect. Not sure what kind of lanyard you are going to do, but if you add a bead or knot at the end and make it the perfect length you really can get a solid hand filling grip. I'm sure you already know all this though.

It's on the way mate.
After taking the pics I put it into a water bottle, wrote Harley or bust on it (that's your address right?) and threw it in the river.
I've heard good things about surface mail lately, it should be there in no time.

I didn't see a Stretch. I would personally not order from that website either. Not that anything is wrong, but just my preference.

See the Superblue Stretch is there, but more interesting for me is the Blue Domino.
But I'll probably get the blue weave one from KW.

The Stretch in brown G10 looks nice but is priced quite high.
Shouldn't comment as we buy the normal stretch for about that here.
ZDP189 must compare to Superblue

As for the cost, given my experience with Spyderco you get what you pay for. They're worth saving up the extra $$$ for, IMHO :salute:

He has some photography skills for sure.

Thanks guys :cheers:.
Five minutes after I took that picture my dogs chased off a big Black Bear. He came back three more times over the next half hour, huffing and snorting and looking for trouble. The dogs kept running him off, but I decided to call it early. Spyderco felt kinda small today...
-
Thank God the dogs kept chasing the b'ar off. The Military is a fair sized knife but next to a black bear it aint much. :)

New Spyderco design:
(http://staticapp.icpsc.com/icp/loadimage.php/mogile/1036760/3a80e1b9441b486d1284a3924a555fc3/image/jpeg)
C193TIP Squarehead Folder
UPC: 716104010349
MSRP: $129.95
OVERALL: 3.30in 84mm
BLADE: 1.30in 33mm
EDGE: 1.25in 32mm
WEIGHT: 1.1oz 31g
GRIND: Flat-Chisel
ORIGIN: Taiwan
The Squarehead is the brainchild of Darriel Caston, a full-time electrical and electronic engineer who has been designing and making custom knives part time since 1992. Long before that, he developed a deep fascination with pens, small folding knives, gadgets, and all things mechanical. That obsession—along with his skills in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), 3D software, and CNC programming and machining—have had a strong influence on his knife designs and enable him to translate the unique concepts in his head into sharp steel.
The heart of the Squarehead is its unusual square-shaped sheepfoot blade, which is machined from CPM® S30V® powder metallurgy stainless steel. Its single-sided, flat chisel grind offers an excellent balance of edge geometry and strength and allows the PlainEdge™ cutting edge to nest safely against the handle scale when the knife is closed. Spyderco’s Trademark Round Hole™ in the blade proudly identifies the knife’s brand identity and allows easy one- or two-handed opening.
Equally unique is the Squarehead’s single-sided handle. Machined from a solid piece of titanium, its one-piece construction includes an integral back strap that also serves as a blade stop and a guard for the blade’s edge when the knife is closed. To lock the blade in the open position, the handle also includes a precisely machined integral LinerLock-style mechanism with a ball bearing detent.
Incredibly small and lightweight, the Squarehead is one of the few Spyderco knives that does not include a clip. Instead, it features a wide slot in the butt end of the handle that allows easy attachment of a chain, fob, or lanyard. Assembled with screw-together construction to ensure the precise alignment of all parts, the blade, handle, and other key components of the Squarehead feature an attractive matte stonewash finish.

Its a speSmurfpillst hard use cutting tool, not an all rounder like the PM2.
Congrats on your acquisition.

The Gayle Bradley is a beautiful knife. I had one of those for quite a while as well. :tu: I do agree though, the PM2 is a better all-around blade.

Just reprofiled the edge on it so it's been with me the last few days.

Thanks Lobby. It is scary sharp and spent a lot of time with me in Afghanistan so has some sentimental value. Honestly though it will be mostly replaced with a NIB Cruwear model I recently scored for a song.

Couple sweet Millies there Harley. Didnt know you were a singer. :D My Cruwear Millie was stolen out of my locker at work. The good news is that I have a spare. But I have not broke it out yet. Maybe tommorrow? :think: :D
-
Let us know how you find it compared to s30v.
I got offered one locally for the equivalent of $300 but I'm not sure it offers anything better than my BFOK or the Bradley.
204P Millie on the way later this year too.

I have a 204P Para 2 and they are different animals. Cruwear is tough, it will take a beating and not chip or break but it is not a huge edge retention steel like the 204P. It holds a working edge for a while but not in the same class as 204P.
I am a Millie fanatic but would never pay that much for a Cruwear. I just got mine for $150 NIB so there are reasonable people out there.

What if .... at the end of the month... I treat myself to a new Spydie ... I'll have a reason to ... whatever the outcome is...

Yeah you k,ow what we think, but two.
What will you be using it for and what are the knife laws where you live? Are you left handed? Pocket or bag carry?

No... real serious laws and limitations as far as I know, lol. I'll be using it for ..... fun. Nothing special really. I'm right handed. Basically, it would be another thing I want and don't need, soo it's all a matter of how much $ I'll have at the end and it'll be not much anyway :facepalm:

You have a Chinese Spyderco so go with one of the other factories now.
The perfect EDC tool with years of evolution to perfection from Seki City Japan, the Delica full flat ground in any color of your choice.

I can only recommend the Dragonfly 2. Its a great size, I mean its small, that is what is great...
Its just big enough to be a comfortable grip, yet its small and light in the pocket...

I have to concur with shark and E. Any of the Seki models would make an excellent choice. The Dragonfly 2 specifically is excellent, so light it disappears in your pocket and a nice thin grind that cuts like a dream.
Of course if you want something on the larger side I would be remiss to not suggest the Military or Para 2.

I have to agree with these 3 on the Dragonfly 2. I've recently had a chance to handle some Seki models and the Dragonfly, with the Endura, really shined. The Delica was simply too small for my hand (some weird 3.25 finger grip that I can't stand)
-
Finally added the back spacer to the Manic 2 XL JA sold me a million years ago.

I did my best not to heat it up with an ice water bath and a dry after every pass. This was years ago now. It's quite sharp! Though poor geometry means it's a box opener

Top of my head? Military is larger, liner lock, para2 is smaller with a compression lock. Military has one clip position, para2 drilled for left/right tip up/down

Good summary, also the Military has shorter half liners while the Para 2 has full liners.

About a half inch of blade length also.
I am a huge fan of the Military and own three of them with another on its way once the 204P Knifeworks exclusive get released. That said the Para 2 is a great knife also and if you are someone who has issues with tip down carry it is a good option to the Millie.
The liner lock on the Military is easier to close one handed without having to flip the blade closed like on the Para 2. Not so much a issue for you on the farm but for someone in a office it could be.
Almost forgot the handle on the Military is a good bit larger then that on the Para. It was made large so it would work with gloves. The lock on the Military is easier to use with gloves on also. if handle to blade ratio is important to you the Para is more even in this department.

Only used the Cruwear for a few days before sending it off. Have not had enough time to form an opinion other then that it came super sharp. Will be carrying it a ton so will let you know how works.

This thing is far better than I would've imagined. Before I had any new spydercos, I'd always thought the delica would be the perfect knife to replace my c38 jess horn. But I never pulled the trigger, and I'm glad frankly. I value a handle that fits my very large hands comfortably, and this ticks the box. It is super solid, light, and comfortable. And for such a large blade, it's not intimidating, between the blade shape and the lovely green.
Now to find a used dragonfly 2 at an affordable price :drool:

First of all the combination of stuff carbon fiber scales and some big old bronze washers make this the smoothest knife to open I have ever handled.
As for the bolt action lock it is good. Right out of the box I could operate it one handed which is way better then the lock on my Manix 2. It also has a thing where if the blade is almost closed some kind of reverse pressure will pull it closed.
Of course my favorite part is holding the lock open and flicking it open or closed over and over.

The few vids that I'd seen on these said they were saber ground guess they never checked or corrected themselves. I don't think they were around all that long the ffg craze hit pretty hard. It took me a while to actually find one.

Orange is the new black.
The latest addition to my orange Spydie family is the little guy.
BFOK Military on top, Endura, Delica, Dragonfly and Roadie.
Still early days and I have not used it much to have a strong opinion on utility.
I can open it one handed if I need to and the steel feels hard on the sharpmaker, think I will like this one.

Just a random question: What do you think about the Spyderco Pingo, guys?
I've been thinking about getting another Spyderco for a while... but then I want something cheaper (their prices are outrageous here), something smaller, but not tooooo small, just something convenient for my hand - the Ambitious I have is just perfect fit for my hand;
I also want something to be opened with one hand... which isn't included in the design of the Pingo, but peopole manage to open it one hand..
Anyway, any input will be appreciated :tu:
-
I'll tell you next week, N_N_R. Got let down by the guys at the UK meet last weekend - no one had one for me to play with so I had to get my own. :facepalm:
-
looool
I'm pretty sure I'll get one at some point, but can't decide if to wait for an orange one from eBay or get the regular black from here... but black can be carried alwayswhile the orange is cool but stands out too much....
what will yours be?
-
Orange! Nicer than the black.
Been looking at getting a Spyderco for a while - but don't really like the blade shapes of most of them, particularly the UKPK. The Pingo is much more interesting to me and looks like a really nice little knife.
-
lol, I think the Spyderco blade shapes are extraordinarily ugly and yet l love them :D

The Dragonfly looks nothing like the Ambitious.
-
To me it does :D I just want something more different. Visually. And the Dragonfly seems to be smaller than the Ambitious which will border inconvenience, kinda.
Ok, so can we just focus on the Pingo which I'm kinda determined to buy for some reason, I just need people who can say more about it... :think:
Unless I start thinking otherwise soon. lol
-
Visual appeal is a highly subjective matter and the burning desire to acquire a new tool or item of kit because I've been seduced by the look of the thing has cost me a small fortune over the years ! The most recent example being the Swiss Tech Utilikey, which wasn't expensive but it wasn't any good either.
By the same measure, I've also managed to reject what would have been good purchases because I disliked the look of them.....which is pretty pathetic but the norm in my case. My only real success story has been with the Victorinox Bundeswehr Knife, which has tremendous visual appeal and practical function.
Returning to the Pingo, to me looks to be pretty unremarkable in visual terms, although not an ugly knife and the orange is an attractive colour. So if you like the look of it then you must buy one
-
Yeah, the way something looks is also very important to me! :D And, of course, looks is a rather subjective matter, so it's understandable I find the regular Spydies uglyish, the captain loves them, I like the Pingo, you dislike it and so on :D But if I like something visually... it's hard to get me to unlike it, lol.
I'm not even sure what I like about the Pingo. When I first saw it, though, I thought it was the ugliest knife ever :D But then I thought it was rather original, so I'm still in two minds :D
As for the orange, I also love it, but think that the black is far less conspicuous when it comes to not attracting attention.
-
Spydercos are about how they feel in the hand and not so much the looks.
Go bling, get a Stainless Steel Delia.
Or Byrd Meadowlark.
Pingo felt weird in the hand to me.

Pingo arrived today. It's very orange. :)

Feels great - very light but with stiff handles, good snap open and closed with a firm clip and it's comfy to hold. Blade is short but a nice shape and cuts really well.

To me Spydercos range from stunningly gorgeous, to sleek and cool to OMHFGKIWF :ahhh ... I don't think I've ever seen a Spydie who just looks "meh". My purely subjective view:

Harley, you got your serration fix in a stylish way. Let us know how a spyderedge Millie works in the real world. I'm using my Pacific Salt a bit but still prefer a PE for camping type tasks.

Only used it a little bit so far but it cuts cardboard like crazy. Used it to open a pack of water and of course it cut the clear stuff used to hold all the bottles together with no issues. Cut a good chunk out of one of the bottles also on accident and without knowing.

I don't' sadly :( they're just too nice for me I'd muddy it up and I wouldn't want it to be a safe queen. But I have seen quite a few pics and vids and they are very fetching.

Go ahead and muddy it up! Use it to open letters, packages, cords, flicking exercise for the hands, as a money clip or even as paperweight. The blade tip on mine has tape adhesive already. Yet to find good use of the S curve edge though.
I prefer to use stuff as it creates "use" values and "character" of the object. If it becomes a safe queen, it can be transferred to someone else if need be.
Have a good day!

Pretty sure it's a manix.
You're right. I didn't notice the lock, just the handle shape.
Yep it is the OG Manix, the C95.

Hope this booger breaks in soon. :-\
I also need to switch the clip the the other side.

Thoughts on the upcoming Para 2? (dark blue, S110V). Anyone getting one? I've been torn about steel lately. I love knife steel and learning about steel, it's my favorite thing. The metallurgy, the look, the properties, everything. So I have long wanted one of the current 'super' steels, like cts-20cp, m390, ZDP-189, S110V.
BUT- and it's a big one, I can't figure out why anyone needs a knife that takes forever to dull, then forever to sharpen. My knives don't go dull before I'm done using them ever. I don't imagine most peoples do. Yet the super steels are very popular. Which is fair, I want one myself. I guess I just find it hard to see the value in the extra money for a "better" steel in a knife I can get in something just fine.
It makes me think of the Manix 2 in cts-bd1. It gets a lot of hate on BF (cts-bd1), but it's just G2 (gin-1), which was fine when it was around. The Manix 2 lightweight in bd1 and hopefully frn will be my next spydie, unless I can talk myself into the new Para. Which, even my beautiful S30V hasn't lost an edge on. At all. Despite cardboard.
Just the ramblings of a wannabe steel metallurgist who loves his knives :D

Before I learned to sharpen I was all about super-steel or replaceable blades... So, I think there are three reasons
1) If you can't sharpen its awesome as you don't need to bring the knife into service that often.
2) Its interesting from a material-science point of view
3) Stats matter, whether its more HP on a car, more RAM in your computer its just awesome for bragging rights...

Yep, well said.
Big steel snob but after a lot of thinking about the subject I have decided that S30V is plenty good and it sure is hard to tell the difference between it and say 110V. Unless you're trying to sharpen it.
That said I still plan to buy all them super steels and sprints but do it knowing it is for the reasons you mentioned. Not some huge performance difference.

Like most other things you can't usually stay in business selling the same thing for years even if it's nearly perfect. You have to make changes so your marketing guys have something to do. How much more so if you're a public company and trade stock.
Anyway most people who buy knives don't know how to sharpen them and don't have the right equipment to do it and edge holding is important because that's how many people judge knives. You can't beat the 5 dollar sharpening service from Spyderco, especially when they will sharpen combo edge knives and Benchmade and Gerber won't. You can send 100 knives back to the factory for the price of one Spyderco sharpening kit.

But then I wouldn't have the satisfaction of doing it myself. Not to mention I can make it way sharper then Spyderco does. SE being the exception but I am working on that.
100 knives times five dollars is 500 dollars right? Has there been a price change on the Sharp maker?
-

That's fine for people who are knife enthusiasts, hunters, etc. But we are not the majority. Many people buy just one knife and if it doesn't come sharp and stay sharp it's not considered a good knife.
100 knives times five dollars is 500 dollars right? Has there been a price change on the Sharp maker?
I remembered wrong. I thought they would do 5 knives at a time for 5 bucks. It's 4:
"REPAIR INFORMATION
Blade Sharpening: Complimentary on PlainEdges, SpyderEdges and CombinationEdges provided. Please include $5.00USD for shipping and handling. $5.00 will cover the return shipping cost for up to 4 knives."
So make that 80 knives / 4 = 20 batches of knives * 5 bucks a batch = 100 bucks. Still pretty economical.
-
I thought it was about 50 dollars for a SM but yeah not a bad deal. Especially if you only own one knife. Sucks that you don't have a knife while it is gone though.

Nice knives. The Delica4 and Endura4 are just awesome knives in every way.

"Super" steels are great but I get the most use out of the cheaper stuff.
BD1, AUS8 and 8CR13MoV are so easy to keep sharp you don't need much more.
A working knife gathers no rust.
Serrated H1 seems to jump to attention and sharpen up as soon as it's in the same room as the sharp maker.
Plain edge H1 loses its shaving edge if you even look at it; it seems.
It's soft but does its specific task really well, same with budget steels on real world working knives.
Cost vs edge retention vs sharpening vs toughness vs corrosion resistance
I'd get by with a $20 Byrd Cara Cara in 8cr13 to be honest but M4, 204P and H1 are the current toys being played with and it's good to know their values.

I personally don't think H1 is going anywhere it's rust proof and's been around for what twelve years? I heavily agree with CTS BD1 though, it is an excellent steel I like it a lot more than AUS8 and 8cr13mov I would very much like to see it on more knives in the future.

My first "proper" Spydercos got here. These are my first thoughts:
Paramilitary 2 - As amazing as everybody said.. flawless fit and finish, perfect ergonomics, great looks, perfect lock-up, very sharp... I really really like it... although I can't say I like it 3-5 times more than my Tenacious to reflect the price difference

Dragonfly 2 ZDP-189 - Also amazing.. sharpest knife I've ever seen, perfect fit and finish and amazing grip... you wouldn't believe something that small can be that ergonomic.. also quite pretty and easy to open and close one-handed (despite the size). FRN is nice and grippy but looks as cheap in person as in the photos :-\ . At least the colour is pretty. Must find a proper sized lanyard for extra grip... the Vic one works but looks awful.

The Para 2 is in no way 3 to 5 times better than a Tenacious but in a few years the extra hundred or so you spent will be forgotten but it will still be a better knife.

Nice Kawi! Love me some Japanese vehicles. And that delica! I want a D4 quite badly, but know I won't use it. Don't know why. Got an original delica, and I love it to pieces, but I won't carry it for whatever reason. Maybe I should get a new one and then I won't have to worry about using my old one :D
Edit: Wait. Is that an endura?

It is a Delica!

I would buy a spydie in that green but the zdp-189 scares the hell out of me. I'll probably never have to sharpen it but as soon as I do all bets are off.

Yea, ZDP-189 is very hard to sharpen unless you have the right setup. Even if you have the right setup it is still a pain though.

Tenacious is a pretty nice Spyderco IMO. I've used mine hard and never once was concerned about it not being up to whatever I threw at it. 8CR13MOV steel. G10 scales, liner lock. Pretty hard to beat this knife again IMO for the money.

Completely agree and I would suggest the Tenacious as well. I would highly suggest getting the blacked out version for a few bucks more. :drool:

Tenacious it is then. $38 is not bad. I just bought a Kershaw Blur and Emerson CQC-7K so I'll get a Tenacious and throw it in carry rotation.

That is a strong inexpensive rotation right there. All for less then the scales in some of my Spydercos.
Well done.

Sold one expensive Spyderco replacing it with three solid blades. Now I won't cry if I lose any of them or if someone "borrows" then off my desk at work.
Someone borrowed my Cadet last week and I would like it back.

To each his own... I wouldn't give my PM2 or my DF2 for a sack of cheapies...

I pick knives on a case by case basis. If a knife is deemed quality (and I have fairly high, though realistic, standards), I'll carry it. Regardless of it's budget or my para2. If something isn't tickling me, I'll move it on- regardless of "quality", and sometimes I go big budget, sometimes I go for numerous knives, more bang for your buck as long as they all meet your needs, eh?

At what point do you oil your knives, guys? :think: Or, how often?
I've had my Spyderco Ambitious for a few months now, hadn't used it for about a week or two and yesterday, when I took it out, it was almost impossible to open it with one hand/flip and the blade movement was kinda.. difficult due to friction. I oiled it and it's working perfectly, but I was just wondering how often you do this to yours?
-
Eh? Never had to oil my Tenacious or my Para2... they open smoother than when I got them.
The DF is a bit tighter so I should oil it again now, a month later...
-
Yeah, it had never happened to me before. And as I don't tighten or loosen the screws usually, this can't have been the problem (overtightening or sth.). It's like the washers (I'm not familiar with the terms) were screaming while opening/closing the blade.
Or maybe it was some dirt, but I do keep them clean :think:
-
Only oil them if there is an issue like yours or I happen to have the oil in hand and a knife close by.
Maybe if they we're exposed to.salt water I would but not often in the ocean.

Sounds like some corrosion might of started in or around the washers. Kind of strange for that to happen and in such short time unless you live in a corrosive environment.
As far as oil/grease in my own knives it is literally a knife by knife thing. Some knives like my Sebenza get grease every time I disassemble and clean it. SAK's and Spyderco's (or any folder really) normally only get oil if I notice it really needs it. I like to run certain knives "dry" as while the oil or grease helps initially it also attracts dirt and lint that will in turn make the blade deployment become stiff. I usually only do this on SAK's though. With the high polish you don't even need oil in most cases. On the same note other knives I would not normally run dry. Sorry for the rambling. Basically its just like I said in the beginning. Its different with every knife.

Thanks captain :salute: I intended to disassemble it to clean it properly when I found out I didn't have a proper screwdriver. It's high time I bought one.

Not sure if you are familiar with disassembling folders or not. If not you should look on youtube for the particular knife and there will most likely be a dis-assembly video or two.
Be extra careful with the screws, especially when reassembling and tightening them down making sure not to tighten to much and strip anything. It can and will happen easily if not careful.
If you have any questions and I can help I will. Good luck. :tu:
EDIT: As far as the drivers needed. It should just be Torx T-6 and T-8 if it is the same as the Tenacious. I suggest Wiha or Bondhus.
-
No, I'm not familiar with this :D It'll be just ... take one off, put it aside, take another part off, put it aside... and then assemble it by following these "steps" back :D
-
Only oil them if there is an issue like yours or I happen to have the oil in hand and a knife close by.
Maybe if they we're exposed to.salt water I would but not often in the ocean.

Cappy is right about the drivers and being careful you don't strip the screw heads.
Just wanted to add that in the future if you have or buy more Spydies that every screw Spyderco has ever used falls between T-6 for the small scale screws to T-15 for the pivot on a Military.
-
Thanks for the info! Well, since I don't have the appropriate screwdrivers at home, I'll have to go actually buyyyyy one(s) only for the pleasure of disassembling my Spydie. So maybe I won't do it soon. I do have one such screwdriver, but it's suitable for the tiny clip screws only.
My knife's safe for now. Unless I run to the store and buy screwdrivers :think: Who knows. lol

Your Endura is just like my most carried single knife.
The saber grind allows for a very sturdy tip for such a light thin knife.
The full flat grind does better for food tasks but the tip does not inspire day to day EDC confidence.
Dig my saber grind endura 4!

The Delica 4 is a must in my opinion. The Military is awesome, but only offers tip down so I go for the Paramilitary II. If that does not bother you then you get the extra length of the Military which is nice. I'm personally not a fan of the Manix, but the majority love it.

Just received this one, and thought you guys would like to see pics.
Text is from the Spyderco online catalogue.

One of the most popular and in-demand folding knives ever created, the Para Military 2 distills the performance and reliability of the Military™ Model into a more compact, pocket-friendly format.
It also adds the advantage of Spyderco’s patented Compression Lock™ mechanism—a high-strength lock that allows the knife to be closed one handed without placing your fingers in the path of the edge.

This elite version of the Para Military 2 supercharges its advanced design with a full-flat-ground blade crafted from Crucible’s CPM® S110V—a state-of-the-art stainless tool steel produced by the Crucible Particle Metallurgy (CPM) process.
CPM S110V’s high volume of vanadium and niobium alloys give it exceptional wear resistance, while its enhanced chromium content makes it extremely corrosion resistant.

Like all our knives with CPM S110V blades, the textured G-10 handle scales of this version of the Para Military 2 sport a distinctive dark blue color.
They are also home to a four-position hourglass clip that supports left and right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry.

Specifications:
Length overall: 209 mm
Blade length: 87 mm
Blade steel: CPM S110V
Length closed: 122 mm
Cutting edge: 77 mm
Weight: 108 grams

I also did not fall in love with the M2.
I find it hard to close one handed but hopefully it will break in at some point. Still want to see if loosening the pivot helps.
As far as the Millie, honestly I don't care if it is tip up or down. Either way is easy to open one handed with little fuss.
Have you checked out the translucency of the blurple G 10 yet on that Para 2. It is pretty neat and I plan to get one once the fever dies down.

My Manix 2 XL broke in nicely despite arriving stiff. I can now disengage the lock with just the thumb on my right hand while gripping the knife with the remaining fingers and it's not difficult at all. I did tweak the pivot slightly so that the blade still has no play, but drops freely when the lock is disengaged. I recommend adding a drop of lubricant to the lock spring to help it break it. Saw that recommended elsewhere and it seemed to help with mine. Then sit in front of your fave TV show and work the lock mechanism and/or open/close the knife repeatedly.
It's definitely no Axis lock out of the box, but the spring is more confidence inspiring than the ones in my Benchmades (never had one break yet though).
-
Good to know.
I saw one with the translucent blue handle in a gun shop few weeks ago, not cheap, but within reach, which hugely surprised and haunted me since....
Honestly never thought I's see a USA-made Spyderco for a price I'm willing to pay. 8)

Thanks, the blade is in rough shape though. Thinking about sending it back to the SFO to see if they can fix it up. They did a good job on my SE Millie that had a broken tip and some other dings.

It is a production model that just came out. S110V blade and according to Spyderco dark blue G 10 scales. They have a bit of a blue purple hue to them depending on the light.
Bit of a hassle finding them in stock atm but the buying frenzy will die down at some point and since they are a production model not a sprint they are not going anywhere.

Got any patina yet on the 4V Mule?
Yes sir just a little. :)

Steve Ketchen. I can dig up his contact info if you want, he does great work.
He also made me these scales.

Fantastic steel but don't you find the ergonomics shocking on the lightweight Manix?
Square and uncomfortable; I still carry the BD-1 lightweight when doing some sports though.
Just not Spydercos impeccable ergonomics

Or actually get an XL.
Go feel it in the shop, it's probably more ergonomic than most of the competition but just not up to usual Spyderco levels.
The big one feels lovely and is one tough knife. R2500 on bidorbuy

Steel is great but I am not a huge fan of the ergos or the very front heavy balance. Never been one to lament a few oz of weight on my knives.
Daughter picked it out for a Fathers Day present so it will get a lot more pocket time then it probably deserves.
Second what was said about the Sage. I have a Sage 3 that I like very much.

I saw and handled some amazing Spydercos on Saturday, had a regional agent at an outdoor shop's event :drool:
Can't remember all the models, :facepalm: but something strange, the Salt H1 is calling me :whistle:
Everything was on special, so I started 2nd from the bottom and got my first Spyderco: the Persistence 8)

This Endura sized "Pacific Salt" is an awesome utility knife outdoors around water or surf. I carry mine when fishing and wading.

The serrated one holds a working edge longer; H1 is quite soft, it shows scratches easily and loses it edge on the plain edge version quite quickly.

Just to be clear, nothing great on display, the good stuff came out of bystander pockets.......all except mine! :facepalm:
Google-fu came through......there was a P'Kal and I think a D´allara if I'm getting this right.....
There was also a Delica with something like 18 years pocket time, and the best part was seeing how they handle EDC. 8)

Yep it is the latest Sprint run.
Will let you know how it works out now that I can actually carry it.
So far I know it can take a sick edge. Sharpest factory edge I have ever owned.
Very thin blade grind. Reports are it is thinner then the other Delicas.
Oh forgot to add I love the handle color.
-
That looks like a beauty. :tu:
-
Great looking Delica Harley! I've considered getting one of these HAP40 but havent yet. Maybe later. I have a couple D4 waved that were flat ground by Tom Krein sveral years ago. They are slicing machines. :D
-
This is a Bob Lum Chinese folder.Lum was a rare and unique man.He was credited with introducing the tanto style blade to the American knife market.This is his collaboration with Spyderco.Unfortunately Bob died a little over eight years ago but he left behind a body of work that will be admired for generations to come.
-
Congrats on the HAP40 Delica. I see it looks a lot like M4 in composition with lots of Cobalt that does some magic with the other elements. A better M4 is mind boggling.

So far it is easy to make super sharp but not a strong edge holder like M4 or CTS 204P.
Maybe because it is so thin?
-
The grind must be the difference there; I have an orange and grey flat ground D4 in VG10; close to the perfect EDC knives. I'll get a black one this year for less visible carry. The green ZDP one looks like it might give the Sage 1 a run for its money in EDC pocket time.

Funny camera angle has stretched things.
Its a sprint run re-release of the first ever Spyderco model, the one that started it all, the C-01 Worker.
The new version has the G10 scales and modern clip along with VG10 steel.
Its a very well made little knife; fit and finish is impeccable; the Japanese outdid themselves here.
A great little EDC knife; the hollow blade grind and profile make it quite workable for day to day light tasks.
At first I did not give it enough time as it was expensive but I'm really happy I got it and have started to carry it a lot. Its a sense of "knowing" and appreciating the original design even though it costs more than a PM2 or Military.
Simple carry for days in the office. Worker and Manager.

What blade style do you prefer?
Well Captain, if an armed thug demanded 2 of the 3 Delicas from me ( assuming all were on me at the time)
I would keep the full flat ground one, give him the saber ground and half serrated, and take off before the thug wanted them all
Short answer - The FFG one

The other budget Spyderco that nobody really talks about. No love for the Cat?
I think it had a history of initial spotty quality and an identity crisis on top of that.
Dropping the S30V blade and the CF scales for a mid range steel, great clip, ergonomic design; makes it a great "cheaper" EDC knife coming in between the Chinese Tenacious family and the more expensive USA or Tiachung offerings.
Mine is perfectly centered with tight lockup and slick action.
440C is a good step up from 8CR13MoV and the clip is the same as that found on the Sage and Dragonfly.
Jimping on the choil and thumbramp are grippy and the G10 seems to be finer grip than the Chinese.
I hear the new ones may come in BD-1 in future, I would love a s30v blade but at this price point you cant fault the 440C. It takes a great edge and does not rust.
Love my little Cat.

What a score. :tu: :tu:
"Score" is very apt as it came with a set of John Grimsmo titanium scales as part of the deal.
Pop the clip off with the Skeletool bit and then put the Cybertool to work swapping the scales.
Perfect fit.

That one looks etched and not the special Damascus laminate that they have used in special Delicas.

:dd: Really quite a beauty. I seriously love the color. The scales are very different than the bi directional ones which also make it look awesome. I see why there are those that really dig that wire clip too, simple and functional. Best of all not just one but 2 which is never a bad thing.
Thanks for the pics.

As you may or may not know I am VERY particular to certain pocket clips and a pocket clip can make or break a knife for me as well as pocket clip position. The first Spydie I ever bought with a wire clip I was skeptical before it arrived. I was worried there would not be enough surface area to "grab" onto the pants material and keep the knife in place. I was also worried it would be flimsy. Boy was I wrong. The wire clip is one of my favorites from Spyderco. It has strong retention and even due to the lack of surface area it holds really well. The deep carry is awesome and I tend to favor deep carry for some knives. Its deep carry feature is designed very well unlike Kershaws. On the Kershaw's (Cryo for example) the screws protrude into the path of your pants pocket when clipping it on your pocket causing it to catch. When inserting it will either catch and not fully seat which could possibly cause a lost knife. When removing it will catch on the lip of the pocket which is annoying and causes wear on the pocket. Sorry to go on so long. :twak: basically the Spydie wire clip rocks! :D
-
It's great information that one would not know just looking at the clips of both knives.

Couple from Spyderco I dug out today that I haven't played with for a long time. Most my other old Spyderco pieces are still NIB that I've kept packed away. To be honest, for quite a few years now, Spyderco hadn't really made models I've been too interested in. I remember when they first came out and I bought a Standard, people were saying WTH is up with that ugly hole? Right idea at the right time.
Anyway, here is an older Rookie and my favorite model, the C03 Hunter which I really wish they'd do a sprint run in updated materials. That'd make Joey happy. :)

I feel ya JD.
Grabbed my 204P Para 2 right as we started packing to move to Georgia. Was "stuck" with it for about a week and didn't mind it a bit.
Only issue I have with the Para 2 is when you really bear down to cut tough things the lock can dig into your hand. Well at least it does to me.

Brock O Lee's posts clearly illustrate the value of a good photograph.Congratulations.
Here's a picture of the two J.D.Smith's which I have in my collection.One is serial numbered #186 and the other is not.
So you are saying you have a extra JD you could be talked into selling?
If you want one just let me know,I'll be glad to help you.

I carried this Military over the weekend. I bought it second hand at the end of 2013, and sanded the scales smooth to get rid of some wear marks. Love it.

The Military is far and away my favorite Spyderco.
Those scales are just the stock ones sanded down some? They look almost Carbon Fiber.

Looks like the S90V sprint run in Carbon Fibre.
Another friend of mine has one and its his favorite knife.
-
Yes this is the S90V carbon fibre sprint. I sanded the stock peel-ply carbon fibre scales smooth.
I did have a :ahhh 'moment' halfway through the process where I thought: "you idiot, you are going to ruin a long discontinued sprint run!". Luckily it turned out perfectly.
The knife fits so well in the hand, I don't miss the texture at all.
I carried it again today.

Thanks brother.
They must be rare,as I've often searched ebay and haven't found one yet.
Here is another cool old school Spydie.
This is a Jess Horn with Micarta scales.It looks like a scaled down JD Smith.

I'm looking for Moki made Spydercos like your Jess Horn ; simply perfect.

Cut off some fibrous Agave leaves and trimmed some thick dead plant stuff with serrated Salt and fixed blade yesterday. The folder has been my EDC since I got it.

The last one that sold on ebay only sold for $260.00 so you're close brother.Maybe if you throw in a case of good German beer we may have a deal.

I have changed my opinion on the Manix 2 Lightweight;
At first I did not like the hot spots on the edges of the scales and I had concerns about the pinned construction and BD-1 steel.
After quite a bit of carry and use I have come to appreciate the knife and think it makes an excellent EDC knife.
Its light and flat and carries well with a good pocket clip. The lock cannot be faulted and the design elements like the finger choils and blade shape are of the best in the world. The pinned setup is turning out to be a non event as I think I have taken apart two out of a hundred knives but its great to be able to adjust the pivot tension.
The sharp edges of the handles seem to help with the indexing and alignment in the hand and you always know the angle of the cutting edge because of this. When held in actual use scenarios it is perfectly fine on the hands.
BD-1 does not seem to hold an edge as well as VG10 but it does seem as corrosion resistant and sharpens up easily.
Its a step above 420HC and even 8Cr13MoV I have come to appreciate things like toughness and stainless properties these lower end steels offer.
I have seen this approach even used among the local custom makers who are turning to 12C27 as a basic working stainless.
Its light and liner-less like the Pacific Salt. Better edge retention than H1 but that is not saying much.
Corrosion resistance seems better than AUS8 from what I can see;cutting fruit and food prep has left absolutely no marks.
So its an entry point into the USA made knives with a great lock and its quirky mix of materials and construction turn it into a very useful EDC knife considering the price. Is it better than a Spyderco mainstay like the Endura or Delica? Just different but if you want the stronger lock and light weight its actually a better choice.

Here is a Centofante made in Golden Colorado with ATS-34 steel.This is a liner lock design with a sliding button to keep the lock from accidentally closing during use.

I just received in the mail a used, previously owned Tasman as a backup to my other one.
(http://i1314.photobucket.com/albums/t562/ThePeacent/CAM01488_zpsxfgs43io.jpg)
I've been EDCing the Tasman for about a month now and felt like getting a backup for such an awesome little cutter.
(http://i1314.photobucket.com/albums/t562/ThePeacent/CAM01491_zpscwmup6tl.jpg)
Needs sharpening and cleaning but it's in great condition, and the previous owner dyed the scales kinda red-purplish tone, I really dig this distinctive feature!

This was a limited edition that was produced in 2001.This knife commemorated the first Spyderco knife that incorporated many innovations in the industry.
Spyderco claimed this was the first tactical knife,first one hand opener,first knife with a hole in the blade and the first knife with a pocket clip.
It came in a velvet jewelry case with an inscription plate that claimed all of the above "firsts" in the industry.
Here is one on ebay.

This is a Syderco Howard Viele C42.It has the appearance of a gentleman's knife as apposed to the more tactical knives for which Spyderco is famous.
As can be seen this knife has one of the smallest thumb holes of any Spyderco.What can't be seen is the eccentric pivot pin that was designed by Spyderco to tune the fit of the lock in final assembly.Tolerances were tight but not close enough to guarantee perfect lock-up in every knife and the eccentric pivot pin solved this dilemma.The owner can tweak the lock after it’s worn by moving the entire blade a little closer to the liner to improve lockup.

It started life as a light grey sprint run in 20CP.
20CP is similar to S90V and its no slouch. It holds an edge forever but the jury is out on toughness. I wont abuse it to its not a problem.

What a coincidence... My grey 20CP is also not grey anymore, and is in my pocket as we speak!
It was my very first Spyderco 5 years ago. I swapped the dirt magnet grey scales for black ones a few years ago. It is considerably thinner behind the edge after I convexed it, and slices like a dream. I find that the steel is tough enough for all my every day tasks.

Carried my Cruwear Millie at work today and one of my co workers was trying to load refrigerator and washing machine boxes into the compactor.
Why not just cut them I ask. To thick he says.
Whip out the Millie and proceed to zip through the boxes like a hot knife through umm boxes.
Co worked awed, Cruwear unimpressed and still sharp. Beer thirty if you ask me.

Got it from Amazon , wasn't cheap but have wanted one for ages
-
Nice score, Weasel. Always nice to get something you've been waiting for. :tu:
-
I was worried about buying from Amazon as I read on here that people have bought spyderco a from Amazon then swapped them with fakes and returned them
-
I've only had that problem when I've bought from their Warehouse Deals section. I had a ZT that was swapped for a SanRemu and a Vic CT41 that was swapped for a CT34. Both times, Amazon returns sorted me out with no hassle and free returns. I try to avoid buying from non-Amazon (or not shipped by Amazon) sellers.
If it says new and is shipped/sold by Amazon, I have had no problems.

Congrats Weasel, love the little worker.
Once you cross the $100 mark then going to $150 or even $200 is not a big thing.
Some knives are just worth it.

I think it's worth the money, it's a great little knife

Glad to see you picked it up Weasel :salute:. I really like the blade shape on that one.

Yeah it's a nice blade shape , the whole knife is nice and compact aswell but feels really solid

I'm not a hard core Spyderco fan like I am a LM fan but they sure make some outstanding knives. What a diverse selection of tools they have. If you cannot find a Spyderco to fit your needs then you just aren't looking hard enough IMO.
I gravitate towards my Native and Delica both fully serrated. I got a nice waved Delica PE but I really like Spyderco serrations. Again, there is a Spyderco for everyone IMO.
:salute: Sal.

Great eyes Capt., Ahb.! Yup. It's a millie2 clone. The moment I got it from a friend, I said "wow!" This is a beautiful knife! He just arrived from Taiwan bought two from Tanchung, where according to him, there were plenty of fake branded knives for sale. Anyways, makers of these knives are getting better and better! I learned that some guys can't even distinguish which one is the real one or not. Like for example, the spyderco southard. You will never know until you see what's inside. This knife should have a Carpenter CTS... Not S30v, the jimping is not right , the color of the scales, and even the box. And most of all, for me, it's the 'feel' that this knife is not real.

Here is one Spydy that I've not seen showcased by any member yet.It's a recent production model designed by Butch Vallotton and its name is the Vallotton Sub Hilt Folder.It's not typical of any previous Spyderco and certainly embodies Butch's concept influenced by Italian style folders.
This knife features an ambidextrous thumb stud that opens the blade and acts as a stop pin keeping the blade from rotating open beyond the locked position.It also features the traditional Spyderco hole.It incorporates a Walker liner lock,S30V steel, polished G10 scales,stainless steel bolsters and a pocket clip that is capable of tip-up,tip-down,left and right carry.
This knife also features a blade with a convex-grind at the tip and a hollow-ground at the cutting edge.It is also one of the few Spydercos that was offered with a plain edge only.

Nice !a very elegant looking spydie you got there

Dave, be very carefull, they become very addictive. As my Wife would comment: "not another Spyderco!" Yes, Love, i promise the last one!!,

Haha. I'm past that stage now I think hugos!
I've had a few others over the years, and the reality is that don't get used because they lock and UK law says I can't EDC them. I will chance locking blades on a multi-tool because my experience has been that they are not perceived as "knives" and nobody gives a second look.
And, that UKPK actually handles everything I ever need to do with a blade - so I don't see me buying any more Spydies in the near future, fascinating though they are :)

Actually you're right... this is supposed to be my birthday gift and the Bone Damascus Delica ( oops ::) ) my Christmas present which will cost something like 50 USD tops (she'd kill me if she knew how much these cost). :D

I love that and almost bought one a while back. There was one and only one reason I did not...... No pocket clip. :( Some for the Endura model as well. I would of carried that bad boy every day.
I am not taking anything away from the knife. Its still a beauty and I am so happy for you that you got one. :tu:

I know.. not crazy about the non pocket clip thingy. I'm thinking either carry it in watch pocket of pop a lanyard with a clip (like on my SAK) or buy a sheath with clip... still I wanted a pretty OHO folder in that size and this came closest to my needs (Centofante Memory and AlMar Katana were close seconds). The only one I'm sure I'd have liked better is a Small Sebbie.. but to get one with inlays and damascus, it would cost me as much as 5 or 6 Delicas... was best price/quality ratio for fancy OHO folder.

I would personally go with a leather sheath and carry it in the pocket.

I love that and almost bought one a while back. There was one and only one reason I did not...... No pocket clip. :( Some for the Endura model as well. I would of carried that bad boy every day.
I am not taking anything away from the knife. Its still a beauty and I am so happy for you that you got one. :tu:
Pfft it is a Delica. Just throw it in the bottom of your pocket and go. Do it all the time with my HAP 40 Delica.
Of course my HAP Delica is nowhere as noce as this one. Probably dobt want something like this rattling around with your spare change.

One suggestion though- get them dirty! Put those buggers to work!

If it makes you feel better, the tip of my left thumb is gone now, due to an incident with a paring knife a few weeks ago.
Lets just say i'm very glad I was quite drunk at the time.

Lets just say i'm very glad I was quite drunk at the time.
Could the alcohol have anything to do with the reason it is gone :pok: :D
I am sure that did not feel good though :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh
It may have been a contributing factor...
It felt pretty bad at first, but I was able to change my cars brake pads and rotors the next day, and it works perfectly fine now. So there is that.

cut myself again since I last posted here... "new Spydie in the mail, new cut in the flesh" seems the rule

Well as long as you are able to keep going and even do some mechanic work then I guess you are OK then :D

I've got my first Spyderco about two weeks ago. It was really, really dirty So I had to take it apart and give it a really good clean.
I still need to sharpen it though.
Anyway, popped into my backyard to snap a pick and join this thread.
I'm loving the thumb hole by the way, great for ambidexterous use!

Thank you Captain this is my first foray into moding my own knife. More mods are on the way for this one. I'm waiting on a titanium backspacer and deep carry pocket clip! Still deciding if I want to do anodized titanium screws and pivot we'll see.

Argento: What is your thoughts on the Manix II :think: I just discovered them the other day and was debating about getting one.
On Topic: I have a Endura 4, a Native just picked up two Pacific Salts from Spoonrobot.
I absolutely love my Manix 2! Very hardy knife and I happen to love the locking mechanism! Some people aren't to fond of it though. Very strong blade it's much stronger than the P2's. Don't think do you'll be happy you did. Here's mine:(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170205/8f9eb2c05d00c10e54dd21c747a31e31.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170205/5709b91fd8e6e5ae9e3872de87124250.jpg)

Thanks Styx! The scales are aluminum and the black is recessed so they're quite grippy.
They were made by Caveman.

Im not so surprised they aren't talked about. You would think they are somewhat novelty, but the precision and function on them are perfect.
But yeah the minichamp on the keys is a handy tool x10. It's very interesting the different ways we can pair our tools and daily carry.

There are a few good lookers there. :dd: So can I trade in a kid or two?
-
I probably shouldn't. That last kids I took on trade got lost in the mail...
Def

If I send them separately surely one will make it there...

:rofl: :rofl:

I will let you know when the mail man drops off a kid with a stamp and my address scrawled on their foreheads.... :D

Unless he manages to flatten them enough that they pass as letters shipping cost will be exorbitant... he probably makes them walk/swim to you.

Hooligan has to be a joke. The other one is a Tusk model I believe

If the Hooligan is not a joke I really want one but it would be illegal here given the "brass knuckle" feature.

Yip its a recent (2014? if I recall) sprint run made with green G10 and VG10 steel.
Quite pricey for a small lockback but quality and pedigree is worth it.

AKA Piranha multitool.
Comes in 2 sizes, with some differences between them
(http://i.imgur.com/oBK6XK3.jpg)
can be obtained through eBay or most Chinese retailers and websites under $20. Inexpensive but fun toy

My Delica and Dragonfly 2 (purchased here from another user) are my go-to carry setup, although occasionally I will switch my Delica with an FRN black Native 5. You gotta love how they make these backlocks truly ambidextrous. My only qualm is having to purchase aftermarket deep carry clips so I don't get any raised eyebrows in the office.

very nice pair, two of Spyderco's flagship models :salute:
if these clips weren't so rare and expensive here, I'd get some for myself

I met interesting animals ...
And I had some time to relax

Here's the evidence that my wandering through the woods was not futile.

I need to ask about a Spyderco.....the Stretch Hap 40 Sprint Run (C90FPBORE), or any Stretch for that matter....... :whistle:
Can't recall seeing them mentioned ever, and it's one of the models that always catches my eye......
I've made my last purchase for a very long time, but I can maybe reserve one of those till the day arrives. :gimme:
And the reason for the Stretch over an Endura is very simply the HAP40......... :drool:

Good score Poncho! :tu: I like the Pac Salt. Have a couple of them. I need an SE Pac Salt.

I did not realize how similar the Endura and Pac Salt were until I received mine :o I do like that shape and size so I am even more happy with it :tu: I loved the Spyder edge on the Endura but I am still more of a PE blade type of guy :D I think this will see some good pocket time :tu:

That's great, Poncho! Those two will last a lifetime and give you much service :cheers:
now that you've got a Black endura SE and a PE Pacific Salt, you have to get a son of both, a Black SE Pacific Salt like this :D

cool video Gerhard.
I've a saver salt, kept permanently in a buoyancy aid i use for sea kayaking, oftentimes it mightn't get washed after a days use especially when i'm home late and paddling again the next day, so far after 3 months or so no rust problems with it - the mechanism seems just a little stiff, can't remember if it was always like that from day 1 or not.

I've a saver salt, kept permanently in a buoyancy aid i use for sea kayaking, oftentimes it mightn't get washed after a days use especially when i'm home late and paddling again the next day, so far after 3 months or so no rust problems with it - the mechanism seems just a little stiff, can't remember if it was always like that from day 1 or not.
Unfortunately I live too far from the ocean to give the rust resistance any real test, but I am loving the properties of the H1, and I don't know how else to put it, but the knife feels alive in my hand!
I never thought I would be somebody to complain about weight on a folder with G10 & SS liners, milled out or not, but I'm a true convert! :assimilate:

The SALT looks great. Glad you are liking it Poncho. I live 10 miles from the coast so I've considered one over and over again. I'd go with the smaller Delica sized one as I really like the Delica.

How about a serrated Salt 2 with the black blade? Then it would definitely feel and look a lot different when you use it.

Thanks. And glad to temp you since all of your pics of serrated Spydercos tempted me :tu:
It's a nice finish. Different than a black oxide. Spyderco calls it "black titanium carbonitride (TiCN) coating." Not sure how durable it will be, but it doesn't rub onto the hands the way BO can.

yeah, I know the finish.
TiNi has been used by SOG on their MTs in the past and I have an Aqua Salt and Pacific Salt with that finish. It's very resistant to scratches and wear and has a smooth, non glossy finish that I like. in all these years only my Aqua Salt's TiNi coating has developed some wear at the tip and two visible scratches along the blade, I guess from particles in the sand

did you RIT-Dye your Tasman? That orange looks weirdly awesome :tu:
Yeah it's been rit dye but not by me , buy it like that.

that's cool. What's up with people RIT dyeing Tasmans? ???
I had two Tasmans, and the first one (now lost) was also bought used, and the original owner RIT-Dyed it reddish, this one was it:

I also liked it better than my factory black-scales Tasman that I got after the first one... :cry:
I still have it but I'm not sure you can dye black FRN... :think:

that is the most beautiful :dd: and awesome :o sheath I've seen for a Spyderco fixed blade yet.
Truly amazing, :hatsoff: to that work.
(https://i.imgur.com/1D6WunL.jpg)
My Rock Salt is very good but the sheath is not up to the knife, it can dull it easily and the rigidity of it makes it difficult to carry in the belt without poking or pinching. If it had one like yours I'd bet I'd carry it more when outside
The design of the knife is very good and ergos are top notch :salute:

if you look closely it seems like the blade's opening motion (the arc around the pivot) is engraved on the stone below, as if the tip of the knife cut a line on the stone as it was traveling that arc :o

That knife looks great. Always heard great things, especially the blade steel. I want one of those black one with serrated blades!
How's it cut? Would you have preferred spydercos typical full flat grind, or it still thin stock?
-
Thanks kaput :salute: I really do like this knife :cheers: The steel seems good to me and it cuts really well :like: The edge holding on it is great as well :tu: I have only had to sharpen the edge once so far and that was more a strop than a sharpen :salute: I don't have another of their knives to go by but the grind on this one so far has been fine and no complaints from me :cheers:

Nope it is outside :D I am out in the cold, hot, rain, sun and snow or whatever the weather :ahhh and that is our stoneyard (the onsite one) :cheers: It is where we store our different stone and brick until we need to put them in the wall :tu: We actually do have a warehouse about 45 mins from the jobsite but that isn't typical of how we normally do that ;) We usually receive material straight to the job but with limited space here for the massive amount of materials we have to install we had to rent a warehouse and get it brought out as we need it :cheers:

The three larger knives and the Dragonfly get carried, the others are shelf queens.
The Kopas are like gentleman´s versions of the Dragonfly; slimmer and with exotic scale materials. Evrina is a synthetic material designed to look like ivory. Only a small batch was ever produced so it´s very expensive. Nevertheless, it looks like plain white plastic to me. An older pic of the two Kopas:

Wanna sell a Kopa or two? :pok:
As a matter of fact, I put these up for sale in November 2016. The thread was closed but the offer still stands.
Prices are in Euro
Kopa Black Quince, NIB E 88
Kopa Evrina, NIB E 77
The Kopa Black Quince comes with a Spyderco certificate, it is dated March 2007.
There's no such certificate for the Kopa Evrina. I doubt I ever had it.
Both of these are limited edition runs of 600 pieces each.
My dealer told me only the first 100 are numbered.
p&p
Netherlands E 11
Europe E 19-23
Other E 28
PS MTo members only.

I :like: Spyderco. Of the 10 I have, 9 are backlocks :D
Me too! Just one non back lock! :cheers:
- 4 Pacific Salts (Backlock)
- 2 Spyderhawks (Backlock)
- 1 Salt I (Backlock)
- 1 Tasman Salt (Backlock)
- 1 Lil'Matriarch (Backlock)
- 1 Dragonfly Salt (Backlock)
- 1 Byrd Cara Cara 2 (Backlock)
- 1 Byrd Crossbill (Backlock)
- 1 Resilience (Liner-Lock) that is the black sheep in my collection :rofl:

I still can't make up my mind between the HAP40 Caly 3 or the linerless backlock Manix, only good answer I've up with is BOTH! :drool:
Can't afford both which then drifts me towards the SpydieChef........but I struggle with the idea of the RIL :facepalm:
THEN I heard that there's a Native 5 Salt with LC200N that should be out soon, I was sure that would be it till the blade length was pointed out to me.
Going by the rumor mill there's another problem: The Pacific Salt with a FFG blade in LC200N is the knife for me! :gimme:

that's the one that's truly in my future, as it's probably the knife for me. Everything that I didn't like in the Pacific has been improved or changed (E4 handle instead of E3, FFG instead of saber/hollow, great pE retention...)
Can't wait!! :ahhh

the edge length will remain the same, as will the lock and non-rusting hardware (screws, pocket clip...).
Still linerless and with the "safety/reinforced" tip (that is, non pointy), but changing the grind to FFG and the steel to LC200N, and the current handle design (Endura 3) to the latest (Endura 4) design
Sal says the H1 Pacifics will remain the the line for a while, though :salute:

No you didn't kill it. This thread is not a high speed thread. Some one might show up after while. Maybe. :D

Hawkbill blades are excellent at draw cuts (these are the ones your teacher said are dangerous). Hawkbill blades with a plain edge and a one sided bevel are used by gardeners and florists because they allow the cleanest cuts to be made. Serrated hawkbills are favoured by sailors, for ropework, and by less nice people, because they are excellent at cutting someone´s throat from behind. No clean cuts needed there. The Karambit is a good example of such a ´tactical´ knife.
-
ah, thanks Ronald. tactical doesn't interest me at all, but i spend a lot of time in or on water so cutting ropes etc does.
-
You be careful now!

I don´t mean to patronize you... As I said, draw cuts are dangerous, it´s very easy to do serious damage to yourself, and more so with serrated blades because these make ragged cuts that do not heal well.

I´m not interested in tactical either. There´s no war going on here, and besides, knives don´t stop bullets and nukes anyway. Where I live, tactical stuff is for fools with too much money. Even the professional military men I know don´t buy it.
-
yeah i only own one spyderco, a saver salt bought specifically for its rustproofness as i use it on the sea and sometimes don't have time to wash stuff after a day out. I had a stainless sheepfoot type folder but it started rusting. The curved blades caught my eye and i was curious what they're used for. Grant had a bearclaw knife at one stage and i think that was curved too ?
-
I don´t know about that bear claw, but the Spyderco salt series are nice tools.
-
yeah think it was one of these - at the time think we were discussing knives for a kayak buoyancy aid

Ah I see. That´s a cool one, but not at sea, with that AUS4 steel.

I got a dozen Spyderco knives, I juuuuuust got my first Dragonfly today.
I got it because the one I was given as a gift didn’t seem up to the company’s standards.
Guess which is the real Spyderco and which is the fake one that has crappy action and steel. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180207/d54b433c192641fd4b0921d1fc8f1b93.jpg)

As a newish owner of a Dragonfly I can tell you its super. I have mine in shirt pocket as I type. I've already opened mail, freed tuna cans from evil shrink wrap, sliced cherrie tomatoes and green onions, and its not even bust a sweat. Congrats on getting an authentic one.

I cant afford a USA Spyder, how are the Cara full serated hawk or straight blades? Or byrd models? I'm not too familiar with them, but whats a good $20-$25 one on amazon and how do they compare to USA made ones?

I have some Byrds, and the Cara Cara 2 FRN (Cost me $20) is to me one of the best value knives in the world today.
It gives you the cutting ability, ergonomics and feel of a true Spyderco on budget, if you don't mind F&F details and seek performance you won't find anything better than the Byrds at the entry price point ;)
(https://i.imgur.com/MYRr3aP.jpg)
if you're used to the inexpensive 8Cr13MoV you'll see the Byrds got it spot on, noticeably better than most other Chinese made knives.
I have the Byrd hawkbill and other various inner curved blades. This one is beefy and strong, the steel is extremely easy to touch up and with its shape and grind makes short work of anything fibrous or organic :ahhh
(https://i.imgur.com/kMTEJLy.jpg)
the G10 of the Crossbill or the FRN of the Byrd Hawkbill still in production is comparable to the standard material that Spyderco uses on their flagship models. QUality stuff, grippy and durable.
(https://i.imgur.com/7pWpxc3.jpg)
The smaller, lighter Byrd hawk has raving reviews but I don't have one, even though I've read lots of good and positive things about it and having other curved Spydercos I am inclined to believe they've made a very good job with that one too. :salute:
(https://i.imgur.com/Po6w6V7.jpg)
so yes I definitely recommend the Cara Cara for a larger blade to start with (either Plain edge or CE) and if you want a companion blade with very different uses to carry a long a normal, PE knife, the Byrd hawks are up to business and a wise choice :tu:

This is one of my favorite Spydercos, a Bradley-design. In some ways it makes no sense. Light-weight carbon fiber scales over heavy stainless liners. There is nothing light about this knife. Here again, I pulled the clip off this one. Now it feels like a really nice pocket knife, well suited for all sorts of routine tasks or just sitting on a porch making big sticks into smaller sticks.

Heavy, but feels good in the hand (with the clip removed). Given that you like a Buck 112, I think you'd be happy with this model.

Thanks to Nix, I am now the proud owner of a wicked looking Manix 2! :woohoo: :woohoo: Thanks Nix! :salute:

The Manix seems like the logical evolution of some of Spyderco's earlier designs. Classic leaf-blade shape. Hope it proves to be useful for ya! :tu:

I thought it was an Endura Salt, but I guess it's actually a Pacific Salt. Seems like an Endura to me though. ;)
it is essentially an "Endura Salt", same handle material, handle shape, lock, blade shape (albeit less pointy like all Salts) and most characteristics are shared...
but they wanted to differentiate them from the big sellers and Spyderco's flagship FRN knives, :salute:
so the "Endura Salt" became the "Pacific Salt"
the "Delica Salt" became the "Salt 1"
and the "Dragonfly Salt" was called..."Dragonfly Salt" :D
yes doesn't make much sense from a logical standpoint

great pics guys, Poncho love your backgrounds !
One reason why I bought it is it's intimidating
-
This was my first Spydie too and might be my biggest folder still?
It is a whole lot of knife for the money too!
With an Endura for comparison

How has your Resilience held up after all this years?
I wanted to buy a 5.5" Cold Steel Talwar, but price is too much for me now. So I checked Spyderco's biggest folders and was delighted to find this Resilience at this price point. I'm happy :ahhh

the Resilience I have has the G10 completely smooth where the clip touches the scales, from being worn and eroded by weeks of pocket carry, extraction and clipping, I think you can appreciate that in the pic here, between the 2nd and 3rd handle screw it's visibly smoother and darker :ahhh
(https://i.imgur.com/qsgzi95.jpg)
All other things have remained well (action, lockup, etc.) and still has no blade play or wobble at all. ALso the steel has held up nicely, it rusted on me once after cutting food, but some polish took care of it quickly :salute:
The knife itself is big, here next to the standard Pacific Salt I carry,
(https://i.imgur.com/h2bv2Ao.jpg)
and then the same Pacific compared to a 5.5" Talwar like the one you wanted. That Talwar is not big, it's HUGE :o
(https://i.imgur.com/wX6Yr1q.jpg)
but it's definitely a nice piece, and very well designed, built and finished :tu:

Poncho & ThePeacent
.....sounds like a cheesy western :rofl:
Nobody better to ask......
I settled on the CS American Lawman as that last ultimate knife purchase. As mentioned elsewhere, I've done something to a CS knife and now there is no going back to a stud, only holes for me from now on.... :facepalm:
So, full circle back to the Pacific Salt :facepalm:
I have 2.5 problems/questions:
That bloody riveted pivot, I struggle to make peace with that, and I'm looking for reassurance that's not a problem.......?
What also worries me is the prospect of buying the knife, and a few months later the Pac Salt II with LC200N hits..........I'd walk to Golden and smurf on their porch...... :think:
The 0.5 is not PE vs SE, because I'm definitely getting PE.......flip-flopping badly between black or yellow handle.....
-
Your right is does sound like a bad Western :rofl:
I haven't had any issues at all with mine so far and it is holding up very well :salute: Peacent has several different models of this blade and has put his through much more use so he will be better to answer this question more in depth :salute:
Yellow :pok: :D I really do like bright colors though ;) :D
-
many points to address...
- depending on your intended use you'll see that PE does really lack edge retention. The PE H1 ad you know is very soft, very easy to sharpen and will lose its edge very quickly. If you're OK with 8Cr13MoV, 40HC or AUS8 it's on par with them, but if you're in search of more advanced steels you will be disappointed :salute:
- the hardening of H1 and its properties in SE make me always recommend getting a serrated H1 blade, or on an alternative blade material if you want to go for PE, unless use of the edge is minimal and you want ease of sharpening. In this case, for a rust proof PE folder I'd definitely wait for the newer LC200N knives from Spyderco :tu:
- Yellow is cool and a differetiative trait of the Salts, I really like it and you cana always turn it darker (unlike black handles) but if you want to go under the radar or just like black knives, the Black variations are as good as the yellow.
(https://i.imgur.com/AQlMcJ0.jpg)
If you're more into woods hiking, sea, river, kayak, or adventure activities the yellow one is an obviously more adequate choice
- a closer size to the AL would be the Salt 1 and not the Pacific, but if the AL's blade is small to you then it's an appropriate upgrade and increase
(https://i.imgur.com/ptpUpEP.jpg)
- the backlock is no TriAd but perfectly functional and secure. It can develop blade play (or even come with play from the factory) as 4 of my Pacifics have it, some more some less, but they all open easily (with enough detent not to open in the pocket or IWB) and you can't disassemble them to tweak the action and spring. The back-lock FRN knives are not uncommonly affected by vertical play from factory, at all :P
(https://i.imgur.com/DJvdeYG.jpg)
- They're pinned, yes, but after 4 1/2 years with them I've never felt the need to open them up or unscrew the scales, whenever they've been full of water, salt, dirt, soil or sand I just rinsed them in the water or even put them through the dishwasher
I've pried, bnt and dropped the folders numerous times but the FRN keeps going strong and no problems with any of the pins at all other than scratches and dirt
(https://i.imgur.com/GpXSr7g.jpg)
PS: I loved your Finn Wolf mod and I am a fan of Spydieholes myself, I'd put them on my Cold Steels if that was a real option :salute: :like:

Hi
I have the Salt 1....H1 is a funny steel
The PE H1 ad you know is very soft, very easy to sharpen and will lose its edge very quickly. If you're OK with 8Cr13MoV, 40HC or AUS8 it's on par with them, but if you're in search of more advanced steels you will be disappointed
I'm thinking I could do a mild re-grind, and I figure I could work-harden it on the polisher, the way I understand it the act of grinding in the serrations does the hardening.
for a rust proof PE folder I'd definitely wait for the newer LC200N knives from Spyderco
My friend the Spyderco rep says there's no mention of the Salt series being upgraded to LC200n. I'm not necessarily looking for LC200n, for me it's more about the lightness, simplicity and maintenance free nature of the Salt series.
I remember there are some knives getting lc200n this year, but none I was interested in....love the Spydie Chef but it breaks a few of my rules, nevermind the price.....
Do you know anything specific?
Have to say I'm not very chuffed to hear about the blade play, but I do understand how tough these knives are.
I'm hoping my general circumstances will change in the not too distant future, if&when that happens any fancy knives (like the backlock Manix or HAP40 Caly 3.0) will simply be useless, I need a light workhorse.
My Salt 1 is black.......enough votes and I was leaning towards yellow.
My fear is, after a few beers, if there was play I'd give that pivot rivet some loving attention with a hammer..... :facepalm:
-
If you're OK with 8Cr13MoV, 40HC or AUS8
Sometimes all this progress is not a good thing, I would argue the ability to sharpen is more valuable than a super steel.....I'm 75% converted to the Dark Side.....
-
PS: I loved your Finn Wolf mod and I am a fan of Spydieholes myself, I'd put them on my Cold Steels if that was a real option :salute: :like:
Lightly sharpened masonry drill goes through AUS8 like a dream.......wouldn't try it on the better steels. AUS8A eats HSS and spits out chunks.....

Sorry if I missed it somewhere but why would you get a fixed pivot Pacific Salt?
The newer ones have adjustment and rounder edge clips.
My PacSalt is in my top 5 knives overall and get a lot of use.
It would be my second in one of those “you can only have two” scenarios.

first of all, there have been many regrind jobs on H1, it's no real bugger to work with (I've sone it with sandpaper aand patiencd) but a fuull regrind might be rough on the tools.
The net is full of H1 grinding examples and mods

http://www.spyderco.com/forumII/viewtopic.php?t=63261&start=40
now, LC200N looks really promising and a worthy substitute for H1 in many aspects except costs and price, toughness and corrosion resistance (it can rust unlike H1, it takes a lot but it can be achieved)
the most attractive models for 2018 seem to be the Native Salt and the Waterway (a fixed blade designed by Surfingringo from Spyderco Forums and BF), and the Caribbean that has been delayed for months, :ahhh

the only previous LC00N knife was the Tusk, but was a rather specific model and not a huge success in sales :P
As shark_za says, the new models have pivots and screws to adjust tension and adapt to your need/likes, the only other big change to the Pacific is the fact that it now has a n Endura 3 handle, but Sal says they're being updated to an E4 handle (which I don't like better) and many folks are stocking up on old Pacifics to have the previous handle shape :gimme:
The new Salts will all be in LC200N and H1 depending on model and country of manufacture, per Sal's words :tu:

I suspect I'm looking at very old stock then....... :oops:
Love the Salt 1......about 40/60 against the serrations, but this weekend it was an everything knife. I filleted Redbreast kurper from the top down, and a whole lot else.....just need a bit more blade.

I would settle for a Spydiechef with a plastic handle and backlock :facepalm:
I'm guessing your right about the price of LC200N, so the question (for me) is basically will the Pac Salt with the E4 handle have H1 in FFG...........otherwise I need to confirm that hopefully on the pic on the website is out of date, and not the stock.......

LC200N is much more new to the market and thus more expensive...give it some years :ahhh
as for H1 FFG you won't ever get it unless you grind it yourself, and from what I've heard making a FFG H1 blade is quite a feat :pok:

:cheers: Well that bit of info has sealed the deal....I emailed my contact, if the Pac Salts the have in stock are not the riveted variety that will be my next knife. :salute:
Watched a video last night of a guy that used files, stones and sanding paper to do a semi-convex FFG that I like.....
My Salt 1 looks a little haggard already, I took the shoulders off the top of the hollow grind, plan to take it back more, and the "H" of "H1" is missing after the polishing.......but man I love that knife.

There you see! It's not all blue knives in my fleet after all. :pok: I do like the yellow scales, it makes it a lot easier to find. I like the way it's put together too, it has a razor sharp edge on. How well do you like your salts Peacent?

well I bet you know how I like them.
Of my 14 Spydies, 12 are Salts :D
I am admittedly careless and not really worrisome about my knives and all my life I've found rusted pivots, oxidised scales, etc. :facepalm: to the point that it made me hesitate carrying knife in my pocket around hoses, plants, water and in Summer during very hot months. :oops:
The Salts solved that, and gave me long blades in slim and very lightweight package, something very important if you carry lots of other stuff during the day.
The Spydiehole was a revelation for me too, and the company itself and its philosophy made me fall in love with them.

That is why I gave my wife a Salt 1. She does not maintain or even care about maintaining her knives. She gets me wet, dirty, cuts food and just puts it back in her pocket. Many knives have been ruined by her, but the Salt 1 has solved that.

Just got this new Pacific Salt from my good friend Nix. Thanks Nix! :salute:
one would think that a "Sea (Salt)" knife would be blue like the sea, but this color makes much more sense...and you already have a blue Spydie!! :tu:
There you see! It's not all blue knives in my fleet after all. :pok: I do like the yellow scales, it makes it a lot easier to find. I like the way it's put together too, it has a razor sharp edge on. How well do you like your salts Peacent?
well I bet you know how I like them.
Of my 14 Spydies, 12 are Salts :D
I am admittedly careless and not really worrisome about my knives and all my life I've found rusted pivots, oxidised scales, etc. :facepalm: to the point that it made me hesitate carrying knife in my pocket around hoses, plants, water and in Summer during very hot months. :oops:
The Salts solved that, and gave me long blades in slim and very lightweight package, something very important if you carry lots of other stuff during the day.
The Spydiehole was a revelation for me too, and the company itself and its philosophy made me fall in love with them.
Dumb question on my part :facepalm: :D They seem like a real well put together knife, and you can't argue with the edge. I am rapidly becoming a big Spyderco fan :like: :like:

Here is my Pac Salt :cheers: Love this knife :tu: The fact that you don't have to worry about rust at all is a big draw for me and I am going to get a Salt 1 when I find one second hand for a great price :dd:

Love all the Salt series too! Been using the Pacific Salt and Salt 1 as well as Dragonfly in H1 for a few years now.
On a desperate note I am really wishing I had not sold off all my PM2’s. Such a great knife and now I could not afford to replace it. I may ask the wife for one for a Christmas! :think:

The Cat is one of the most underrated Spyderco knives out there in my humble opinion. They suffered from spotty quality in the beginning but seem to have sorted out the niggles and I have a perfect specimen.
Jimping top and bottom, great clip, great centering and 440C is not a bad working steel. The blade shape is a treat with the right belly, taper and depth.
These days they come in BD1 Steel and are a good bridge between the Chinese and other Spydercos.
I think I work this knife harder than others because of its lower cost and therefore appreciate it more.

As the man said, it’s a Dragonfly in plain edge.
The H1 Dragonfly 2 sports a hollow grind compared to the full flat grind on the other models. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180322/49d5a3e2c5a20c44ac1a875d5730072c.jpg)

Ladybug is smaller, cheaper, lighter, different blde shape, FRN material only, has no clip
Dragonfly has a larger and wider blade, comes in different steels and handle materials, has a wire clip
basically those differences :salute:
-
The Ladybug is really tiny; I do not have one at the moment to take a comparison shot.
Its a two finger hold while the Dragonfly squeezes a full 4 finger grip with the choil.
The Ladybug also comes in H1, VG-10 or ZDP-189 but has no clip and is aimed at a keychain or watch pocket.

Yes I EDC one (SE version) for 3 years. I give it to a friend of mine because he fell in love. It wasn’t comfortable for woodwork but as a urban edc it works good and it fits perfect in my jacket.

I was already planning how I was going to remove the shoulders off the hollow grind of my Pac Salt using the Lansky diamond stones........now it seems I'll need to source one elsewhere. :oops:
Every day with the Salt 1 has me more convinced.........

I have a Spyderco question.
I saw an old spyderco worker with SE. The handlematerial was black with white inlays (maybe mother of pearl).
I didn’t found more informations about it. I didn’t by it so I have no pictures.
I also saw in this shop a police with engraved handles.
Are these original Spydercos or are they custom knives?
-
I don't know for certain. I'm sure that there are people who customize Spydercos.
However, Sprderco does occasionally do special production runs, sometimes called "sprint runs" of variations of their knives. I imagine you saw some of those special variations. So they may not be standard models, but still be Spyderco factory knives. :cheers:
(I'm hoping to go to the Spydie factory later this Spring.)

Today I can finally post here. Have been carrying the Compact but haven't used any of the tools (other than the ocasional hook) so I decided to try something smaller. Spyderco Grasshopper. Great slicer and the blade is not much smaller than a 91mm SAK.

you'll have ro be Delicate planting it,

don't let it Chowke on the soil, Air it a bit,
you'll have to Police it during its first years, :pok:
it's a living being, it's not a Rock :salute:
It will reach high like a Grasshopper,
and give you some fruits, like a Kiwi,
some flowers to attract a Dragonfly, :dd:

however,I'll insist on getting SE if you get H1. Worlds of difference :salute:
That's what everybody says.......and the SE is the only thing I hate on my Salt 1.
I'll admit a lot of that comes from cutting through an apple, being betrayed by the grind and ending up with a line of little bloody dots on my thumb :facepalm:
Also understand that the PE will likely do the same and leave a bloody line, but I was fully intending to take the shoulders off the top of the grind on the Pacific with my Lansky stones with the hope of smoothing the cutting....
.....Just informed the Endura is indeed the FFG model :facepalm:
-
BRG ZDP189 for sure.
And a Pacific Salt in SE for cutting fibrous things.
-
:facepalm:
The order just went in..........with nothing on it for me. :facepalm:
The price in the PE Pacific stings......and I feel the burn when I see the SE Pacific for so much less in another shop.
I love the idea of the ZDP, would be the only "super steel" I have, but the whole platform is the opposite of what I'm looking for - simple robust low maintenance cutting tool.
I know the H1 edge retention is not great, but is it worse than 8CR13? I doubt it, so it's not bad.......
The Endura has steel liners, a more rust prone blade, and will require more maintenance.
What I've grown to love about the Salt 1 is the rinse-out & forget simplicity.
-
Hmm. I have been using ZDP189 in a Dragonfly 2. I am loving this steel a lot. All I've done when the blade came to me was a series of stropping compounds. This blade has cut food and a range of materials. No noticeable dulling and no chipping as seen thru my SAK Explorer. I have washed the knife with soap and water and dried with a towel not being fussy about "completely" drying.
You mentioned this guy and he's seems to like ZDP189

Friday night over :cheers: I showed my cousin how 4 passes on the polisher removes the roll from the Salt 1's PE at the tip and leaves it scary sharp.
That made me feel SE was OK, went to the shop Saturday morning and had the SE Pacific in my hand.........just can't make peace with the SE. :twak:

:salute: I hear you, knives with stainless liners are very practical, used my previous knives the same way without issues, the rust that does form will take many years before it's a problem.
I have to admit however that I've drank very deeply of the Nutnfancy-flavour KoolAid as far as liner-less plastic handles are concerned, I like and trust that setup.
All of this considered, I can't get what I want now at a price I'm willing to pay......
What I can maybe get is a CS broken skull (blue) for the same price as the ZDP Endura. Arguably better steel (CTS XHP) and the construction I prefer.

Fortunately I'm blond......and getting blonder by the day, so people just have to understand :rofl:

I also think with so many nice knives and so many steels to choose from it muddies the waters of choice. Dont get me wrong its not a bad thing but it sure makes it hard to choose tho price point sure helps put everything into perspective.

H1 is a funny steel, and it's soft, but it does like to cut.
Might be a function of the serrations, but my experience its performed better than 8CR for me. Even with the roll on the tip it still cuts.
Had a few too many :cheers: last night and started messing around, funny thing is I could not do on the strop what few seconds on the polishing wheel does to the edge.

That cutting is due to the edge geometry on the serrations, hence I avoid PE.
I have two go to knives for cutting stuff, my Gayle Bradley M4 and the Pacific Salt SE; depends on the makeup of whats being cut.

On first impressions it's definitley a different level of quality, I love how slim and grippy it is, but suprisingly the pocket clip just doesn't agree with my palm for some reason, I find it uncomfortable, while it didn't bother me at all with the "clones". The Delica's clip is slightly slimmer and longer than that of the clones' and what a difference a few mm's make!
So I took it off as I wasn't intending to carry it clipped to the pocket anyway, it just rides too high for my taste.

I think you can get some deep carry clips for the delica, I might be mistaken, but I'm sure someone here will know.

You're right, there are deep carry clips for the Delica, I've been looking at those before for the Meadowlark, but with shipping to Europe it would cost silly money, around 60 % of the price of the knife itself (and more than the Byrd itself cost). I just can't bring myself to buy one.

all of you in Canada, stock on Spydies! :like: :ahhh Now it's the time, since it seems like there will be no more Spydies going across the border for sale, or warranty repairs, at least from Warriors and Wonders, arguably the biggest Spyderco dealer/distributor in Canada :P

How bad is the Shipping for something so small and light weight?
I think I bought 3 clips at a time and also have them on my PM2 and Bradley,they are simple and strong!
I did have to find my own screws for the Delica though as the factory screws were too short but the ones shipped with the clip were too long?
Well worth the effort in the U.S. but I can see a huge shipping charge changing that too.

Cara cara 2 hit a nice low price so I got one, very sharp, seems like there's a little blade play, guessing its common, tightening pivot screw didn't affect it. Does endura have this also?
Can't afford it either way, but just curious.

Doesn't have a endura, but I did have a Pacific Salt, beat it a lot for years and is solid like a rock(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180520/2ed6da3003987bbca125dfb536403425.jpg)

Had two different Enduras over the years and a Delica, Dragonfly and a Stretch.
Never had a hint of blade play with any of em.
Only used a buddies Tenacious a couple of weeks in Afghanistan one time but that one was tight also.

cool, :dd: one day I will have one. only have a ganzo delica clone and 2 byrds, I will save up for a Manix or PM2, I think those are my favorites

- One of the longest blade lengths for the weight you can find, in Spyderco and other brands
- No liners or steel in the handle to accumulate dirt, water, lint, etc. while still durable and sturdy
- Big Spyderhole for easy opening with either hand, and with or without gloves
- Very thin body due to lack of liners, very lightweight to carry in any pants, shorts, sport clothes, swimsuit, etc. without pulling it down
- Tougher tip than PM2, Military etc. to resist more torque and stand up to abuse, and not puncture rafts, boats, lifesavers etc.
- FRN with special texture for grippy, secure, easy to wash and maintain handle that is affordable, resistant, lightweight and reliable
- Backlock is arguably the strongest lock type, and this one has a Boye dent for safer use, easy to use with both hands
- Yellow colorful handle ---> friendlier looking, easier to spot, not the typical boring black, can be RIT-dyed to another color
- Affordable, always available for $70-80 new
- Rust proof period. Sand, grit, lint, dirt, mud, water, oils, acids, chemicals, this one won't rust or pit, neither the blade nor the hardware
- Clip (Current one):swappable with a coin, no need of screwdrivers, is a tough clip, rustproof and hourglass type for better ergonomics in hand
- The steel will hold a great edge for long in SE configuration, is very tough and won't chip easily, can be sharpened quickly to scary sharp
and
- Comes in big size (Pacific), Small size (Salt I) and other formats (DF2 Salt, Tasman, Spyderhawk)
I definitely recommend it, :tu: especially the older model. In 2018 they changed the handles to the Endura 4 type handles and new clip with three torx screws, both changes for the worst IMO :salute:

The pre 2018 model has the handle of the Endura 3rd Generation :tu:
The new model introduced this year has the Endura 4th Generation handle, which is differently shaped and has a finger choil much more pronounced towards the pivot (which doesn't fit my hand as nicely :P), as well as a triple-screw clip mounting system
and no need to RIT dye it black, you can make it green, red, purple, blue, orange, etc. :salute:

Cant complain much about this guy, for $20 it's pretty nice, I get a few miss-fires when opening with middle finger or thumb flick, but I imagine it will loosen up over time, It's also a lot lighter weight then I thought it would be and very sharp. can do the one handed closing trick as well.

I have a Delica stainless I’ve had for years. Always liked it really well, but it is heavy and sticks out like a beacon hanging in my pocket at work.

This knife makes me sad.
Laws made up that have no actual effect on crime.
Sorry to be political.
Pretty color and I love my UKPK so I bet this one is a great slicer.

Yep. You can grab a nice Tenacious off eBay for under $50 new. Or grab one like I did, from here for under $35 that looked like new!!

Dammit, well, you'll be shipping out in the North Atlantic soon, so I thought you ought to have the most appropriate knife, used by most of the commercial divers, around here in New England anyway.
Happy to, Spartan19. Happy to.

Allow me to explain how this all came about. Or at least sum up. This Spyderco Atlantic Salt was intended to be a gift from me to Spartan19. Welcome to town and thanks for service.
I was bidding my time. My plan was to secure it for our next meeting but Spartan19 drew first, and gifted me a nice new Buck 110!
So although I intended to...he started it!
Thank you Spartan19!
Please use that Atlantic well on your North Atlantic tour this summer.

Took them in a Gawden in Maine at a house I was working on!

Not sure I spelled Gawden correctly but that is how it sounds like it spells up there?
Ezdog...
I believe the pronunciation is more like:
"Gaaahden." As in "aaah!" Like just after taking a sip of a delicious, refreshing beverage on a hot summer day.
Either way, that sure is a gorgeous house.

Spyderco Tropen........there is trouble looming.....
Nick Shabazz spotted the problem with the blade at the compression lock, and you could see the problem when Eric was handling the knife in the BladeHQ video :oops:
I dont like a knife that can cut you while its in your pocket but the flipper mechanism sweeping through will clear your finger out the way in normal operations.
The blade being exposed in normal carry is bad.

Din't think of that, still, can't do that compression lock trick that everybody loves doing.
That's the big selling point of the compression lock......"keeps your fingers out of the blade path".......now for a design that brings the blade to you! :rofl:

Eric seems like a super cool dude. Good guy to have running the company (obviously). Good energy and knows what he's talking about (obviously).
Side note. Spyderco makes some hideous looking knives at times huh?! Don't throw anything at me, I own two of their knives :pommel: just sayin, it's undeniable

Cool looking house pic ez :o What were you doing on it? :cheers:
Well.......
I start by flying down to South Florida from STL,work there a few days at 3 different places and then load the clients new Escalade and drive it to Bar Harbor essentially.
Then I work there for a Week fixing everything broken in the house and pick them up at the Airport and stay another Week thinking of things to install or add and then drive back to STL from Maine!
This trip my main task was to extend the house Network to a detached Gaaahden wirelessly about 1/4 mile away so they can stream music and use the internet from the Gaaahden.
Then at the end of the Summer I go back up there and get the car and drive it back to South Florida and fly back home.

Look at all that flattery, and you never used the word "nice" once! :rofl:
Sorry, I agree with you.....just call "better words for nice" a pet peeve of mine. :facepalm: That family and company make my favourite knives, full stop.
Not the Tropen obviously :ahhh
There was a new Blade Show interview with him last night where he addresses the issue, apparently the tested and are satisfied it's safe and the exposed edge doesn't get dulled :think:

Cool looking house pic ez :o What were you doing on it? :cheers:
Well.......
I start by flying down to South Florida from STL,work there a few days at 3 different places and then load the clients new Escalade and drive it to Bar Harbor essentially.
Then I work there for a Week fixing everything broken in the house and pick them up at the Airport and stay another Week thinking of things to install or add and then drive back to STL from Maine!
This trip my main task was to extend the house Network to a detached Gaaahden wirelessly about 1/4 mile away so they can stream music and use the internet from the Gaaahden.
Then at the end of the Summer I go back up there and get the car and drive it back to South Florida and fly back home.
It sounds sort of silly as I type it all out but it pays the bills for sure. :think:
Someone has to do it! :ahhh
Aaah, the lovely Baaah Haaabaaah.
Summered there last year. Right in the shadow of Cadillac Mountain - the mountain where sunlight first touches the US in the morning (at least, at certain times of the year).
Such a great place. Walkable, pet friendly, people friendly, gorgeous. I tell you, the water is still frigging freezing even in late July.

Yeah I will admit I have been up there at 3:30 am waiting more than once! It is better than described too and I don't really like much of anything either.

The house where I was is in NE Haaahbah a few towns over on the Island and a very much more sleepy little place than BH to say the least.My client bought it about 5 years ago and I have been up there maybe a dozen times and in all 5 seasons too!
It is always beautiful but the Island is deserted(no pun intended) in the off-season and I have seen things that I have not seen elswhere there.
I even got stuck there at the house for 2 days during a 13" Ice storm on my Birthday once and luckily have food and supplies on board whenever I go up there as you never can really predict the access off season.

I go to the Mountains in Colorado every year too and though they are so different each is really so unique it is hard to decide which I like better, luckily I don't really need to!

true, Salt 2! I am still used to the older ones :D the tree screw clip setup is the giveaway :salute:
yeah the JM is big, sharp and scary and I rarely carry it but yesterday I brought it with me to the hospital because it is so flat and sleek that it leaves no print on clothing, :tu:
clipped knives in the pocket are easier to see and they grab more attention than this pancaked monster :ahhh

Guys help! Im trying to switch the clip to the other side since Im a lefty but the screw on my Manix 2 Lightweight just keeps turning around. I dont have a needle nose pliers small enough to hold the head and I dont have a clamp. I was also told the screw is loctited.
What to do?

well an0n I have never removed a wire clip from a Spyderco but this thread might give you some ideas?
https://www.spyderco.com/forumII/viewtopic.php?t=62290
I guess it's a matter of using a proper size quality Torx bit, applying direct pressure at the right angle, and maybe break the loctite with heat (althoug IIRC it's blue loctite, easy to break with tools and a bit of force)
the wire clips seem to be T-8 or T-9 size depending on model :salute:

I'm not sure about that one Anonymous. I'm a lefty too, and have always just carried mine in my right pocket, then switched to my left hand, you van get pretty quick that way if need be
That's an option, I guess. It's just mildly annoying that a simple wire clip is more cumbersome to unclip than the more complicated looking clips of Spydies.
Not cool, Sal and Erick :twak:

One thing I love about my Salts is that you can swap the clip just using a coin, a flathead driver or a spoon :like:

I knda wanted to be posting pics of my Pacific by now.....but life :facepalm:
Finally got a right-handed holster (and shoulder mount thingamabob) for my hand cannon, and 1x72 and 2x72 220 grit grinder belts (12 pack)......and suddenly there's no money left :facepalm:
Both were ordered a while ago, had to buy them, but the belts are consumables, and that puts the price of the knife, a lifetime tool, in perspective.
At least that's what I'm telling myself :whistle:

the Salts cut apples very well, IMO, because their saber grind helps in wedging the portion of the apple out and away from the core once the depth of the cut reaches the grind change line :cheers:
the teeth in the serrations bite in and the apple starts to be cut, and after just enough cutting the piece snaps off of the main body :tu:
-
Yes......until those serrations bite into your thumb :facepalm:
So far it seems the Pacific (and the Atlantic I assume) is better because the bevel is higher than the Salt 1

Then you have to go spouting about the Salt series. Now I want one.
I’d go with black handle. I have read the yellow handles fade on some folks. Then do I go for the satin or black blade?? Then plain edge or serrated??
Looks like this thing is going to cost me just under a hundred bucks!!!

Yup they are a bunch of enablers.
I've only 1 salt no problems with fading that I've noticed doesn't get a lot of use but is constantly subjected to salt water and could be left for a few days without washing and other then a slight discolouration on the etching it's perfect.
So yeah a nice knife.
Plain or serrated depends on what you have in mind for it i guess. I went for serrated as rope webbing etc is what I cut with it mostly that and spreading peanut butter.
Satin or black blade? I've no idea tbh I've only looked at the standard H1 with yellow handles as that fits what I need it for
Good luck with the hunt and as regards price well you pay about 1/2 ish what we pay over here ☺
Or you could stay happy with what you have and save $100 and spend it on a road trip or memories :drink:

If the Buck wasn't a LT I'd have a good reason for you to buy a Salt......
H1 is funny, I've recently been able to compare cutting between it and 14C28N, better steel, better grind......sharper, yet cutting some materials the H1 feels like it has less resistance.
Makes no sense at all because the comparison blade is kershaw Skyline, thinner blade, more slice-compatible grind.......but H1 has something.
I'll be on the street crying about being unable to eat knives, but for now my latest indulgence and maybe one or two future ones make me happy. :cheers:
Most start cheap and work up, the truth is most of us should start in the upper-middle and save a bunch of $$. That's where I see the Salts.
Maybe not so much at the current prices though :facepalm:

I'm intrigued by the serrated vs. plain-edge debate.
I've got the plain edge version and have been perfectly happy with it, although, I tend to use it for short periods of time out on the water, especially salt water. So, my experience maybe biased.
Nevertheless, the serrations look like a pain to resharpen well and the plain-edge is fairly easy to sharpen. So, I went with the plain edge.
Have you guys seen a big difference?

I much prefer SE in H1 because the difference in edge retention is obvious, you just forget about sharpening them for long time and they keep cutting and shearing :like:
also having teeth enhances the hawkbill's grabbing power and the retention effect that the blades have on the material, :tu: and considering that the Salts often cut lots of rope, twine, nets and webs that is a plus :salute:
they are really easy to harpen if you have a sharpmaker or a crock stick sharpener, tapered rod, etc,
and they have a place mostly as a companion to a PE blade with steel that has higher resistance to wear and dulling then PE H1 has ;)

Stopped at Smokey Mountain Knife Works a few hours ago on our way home from Pigeon Forge. Way too many knives in there!! Haha
Anyway, looked the Spydies over. Really thinking about getting one of those Clipittools. I liked it once I got to handle one!
I almost bought the only one they had but having hard time dishing nearly $60 for one.
I like the Spydies for one hand opening and closing. My OH Victorinox Knives are difficult.
My LM Crater is easy to open and close but the blade is kind of short.
Can’t open my Buck 110’s one handed.

there's a place for both :D
in my cutting needs, 80% of the uses of my Salts involve cutting roots, twigs, thorns, vegetable fibers, vines, and organic fibers of all sorts so the sawing action is kind, and powerful teeth dominate the field. Here a longer blade (Pacific) and a curved hawkbill blade are often useful :tu:

Also, since I'm often cutting (accidentally) into soil, sand, substrate, gravel and rock particles and such a SE will be much less damaged (and dulled) than a PE once it hits that floor and digs itself into it, thus remaining "sharp" till the day is over because the inner scallops will remain unharmed while the outer teeth and peaks get most of the damage :ahhh
(https://i.imgur.com/mODN7QB.jpg)
for other cutting tasks (out of work), a PE is much better and that is used for packages, boxes, tape, food, labels, containers, envelopes etc. but my use of knives there is much shorter and less demanding :salute: But I find that the PE portion of my Salts (the tip section) is often enough for most of those tasks too ;) and that part I try to keep razor sharp! :gimme:
(https://i.imgur.com/6C1K6pb.jpg)
and that's what often gets me :facepalm:

I'm intrigued by the serrated vs. plain-edge debate.
I've got the plain edge version and have been perfectly happy with it, although, I tend to use it for short periods of time out on the water, especially salt water. So, my experience maybe biased.
Nevertheless, the serrations look like a pain to resharpen well and the plain-edge is fairly easy to sharpen. So, I went with the plain edge.
Have you guys seen a big difference?
I love both versions for various tasks. The serrated is great for rope and heavy duty cutting, whereas the fine edge is awesome for openining packages and carving. Either one you can't go wrong with, I usually alternate between the two throughout the week :tu:
-
No secret I really wanted the Pacific is plain edge, happy enough with the performance of H1 to know I would be satisfied.
Bought the SE version simply due to price, but I have to admit it's not a train smash......still really usable for any task.
Where I fully and finally fell in love with the Salt 1 was a camping/fishing trip in Match, did everything including fillet a fish :salute:

I know, that hurt me :rofl:, it was $55 before tax with a small amazon coupon, I think thats' the most I've shelled out for a non multitool blade, my more expensive kershaws I got with good coupons/discounts, but that was like right place right time deals, Spydercos are tough to find discounts since they raised prices. Today they had a Mora Garberg for $54 but I couldnt pull the trigger, my credit card is in pain cause I got this too: Dragon + Persistence = no Garberg :cry:

I'm really liking it, scary sharp, opening nicely after some break in time, I just gotta move the clip...thought tenacious would be a little heavy for pocket so I went with this one, all the China made ones I've gotten have been really good

No problem with quality :tu:
Comparing it to my Enlan's you can sense the better quality. Problem is I paid 3x as much for it as the average Enlan, the 8CR is good enough, but you get the same on most Enlans.
Price aside, for that blade length the whole knife is too fat, even keeping it in the family I would go for a Delica or Meadowlark instead.
Must add I have to carry in-pocket at work so that influences how I feel.
When my German blood takes control I view it as utterly inefficient :rofl:
But, the truth of the matter is my Sypderco Persistence is the unpleasant reminder of my earlier folly.......it pokes it's fat finger in my eye every time it comes out of hiding :pok:

I moved the clip for tip up carry(there is red locktite on screws if anyone is interested, but it wasn't an issue) its much better in pocket with the spine facing away from your hand, not sure why they sell them tip down with sharp blade spine.

before I finalize this clip with some blue locktite, do I need to get the red off the screws(its not too thick) in maybe a wd40 bath? or can I just apply the blue on top of it?

Struggled a bit when I moved the clip on my Skyline, fingers slipped and a whole mess of blue Loctite came out....just carried on and tightened everything down.

I doubt the Loctite could eat into the G10....?

yeah its not easy working with non magnetic bits and tiny screws. soaked screws in rubbing alcohol several times and was able to remove red, put the blue in water bottle cap and applied with toothpick, still it was a messy panicky affair, got a lot of blue on my hands but none on the knife thankfully.

Yes I watch too many Youtube videos.....
My opinion is thanks to my Salt One, and my little experience with the Pacific Salt so far..........not beating the Nutnfancy drum....
Even though he makes a valid point on weight in the video, I just can't see myself doing anything with a knife where the steel liners are necessary.
I acknowledge and admit the weight difference between a Pacific and an Endura are about the same as a sparrow's fart, but I do feel the difference, and I do care about it.
That's why when I think about that ZDP Endura my thoughts to the Broken Skull.....but that's made by Cold Steel and has a thumb stud. Then I just carry on with the Pacific :whistle:

Anyone got a ladybug who also fishes ?
I'm very happy with my new dragonfly I've found i like small Knives much more then larger blades.
Anyhow thinking of a ladybug as a gift and part of the use it'll get is fishing. Would it be big enough for general fishing tasks and for cleaning small fish such as mackerel?
:cheers:
(My other thought was the new Mora floating knife but that's not available yet and yeah I know it's huge compared to a ladybug)
-
My only (brief) experience is with a Dragonfly Salt, never seen or held a manbug or ladybug.
General fishing tasks, well for me that's cutting line or bait, you don't need much.....
Cleaning a fish is another matter. I've cleaned a 1.5Kg Tilapia with my Salt One, that was adequate, but I would want something considerably larger at the coast.
Going by a few minutes in hand I would be hesitant to use a Dragonfly, much less something smaller.

I would not use it for that.
At the very least I'd go for a DF2 Salt,
and a Tasman/Salt I is not really much bigger, but packs a great punch and might be of decent length to clean fish, :tu:
also depends on how many and which type of fish are we talking about, :think:
but I've seen a few instances of people cleaning fish with a Pacific or Salt I and that's good enough, but not great, in most people's opinions
You could carry the DF2 for small EDC tasks and cutting open boxes, line, etc and use the Salt 1 or Pacific for in-the-boat tasks and fish cleaning, killing and braining :cheers:

small fish such as mackerel?
Latin name please, there are huge "mackerel" out there >:D
Pretty sure I know which one you mean, my minimum for that would be the Salt 1.....or Salt 2 now.
My favourite Spyderco ergonomic is that 50/50 finger choil, but when cleaning fish the slight removal from the cutting edge that the Delica/Endura ergos gives you is preferable.
On our coast cleaning fish is usually cold, wet, messy and semi-painful at times.....

yes, and when i worked on boats this was indeed the case, however this is just a bit of fun fishing and worst case it can be brought home to gut and clean.
Not looking for something heavy duty, an SS mora companion would do that trick fine i guess if that was the case ? Cheaper then a pacific or atlantic salt.
As i say, not for me but trying to find a gift for someone who wants to enjoy a little bit of fun fishing.
Thank you Gerhard and Peacent for your input so far.

This knife is an enthusiasts refresh of a classic that’s keeping many knifes out my pockets these days.
Simple carbon steel with a soft stainless laminate.
Seems better than VG-10 in keeping its edge with some good use.
I can’t wait for the Stretch version, even the Delica.

I do like this one a lot.
My CF one is an early s30v model and it is backlock perfection.
The FRN model is just a slightly lighter and thinner version. Great value at the price. $40 less than the CF. (CTS-XHP Blade Steel)

The grind matters more than if its s30v-XHP-s35vn ; those are all too close to call in normal use.

Simple use and it’s already starting to show; very reactive carbon steel this.

Haven’t bought a new Spydie in years now which is saying a lot because I used to buy at least 2-3 a month!
I’ve been carrying my Pacific Salt (H1), black on black, for quite a while now. I’ve found that H1 is my perfect blade steel and the Salt series will be my carry probably forever. It’s all I could ask for and the Pacific Salt checks all the boxes for me!
-
In enjoying trying new steels, this laminate “san mai” type is a cost effective way to get a tough blade that does most things well.
Yes it’s a V-Toku2 Manbug along with a Delica to go with the Endura I got a few weeks ago.

Several interesting displays about specific models and some tribute knives.
Fun place to visit, but I couldn’t talk my way into a factory tour.
While I was talking with some staff, I noticed a few people walk in and get their knives resharpened on the spot.
I’m in the early stages of a Wave challenge, but a sprint-run Manix 2 is now traveling with us.

that Burl Manix sure has polarizing scales :o. It's a love or hate thing, from what I've gathered :like:
The Golden factory seems to be full of nice people, and I've heard that they tend to be quite friendly there, and of course you always come out with a new blade or Spyderco gadget :D
about Maxamet, it seems to be a really hard steel, difficult to work with, and Sal himself has stated they halted production of blades with it because they ran into issues with warped blades, incorrect heat treatment and extreme wear of the machines and belts :ahhh
They (Spyderco) are pioneers in using this steel and that comes at a price, lots of rejected blades and production issues :P
I'll be happy with my H1 and simple 8Cr13MoV blade for now... :whistle:

got this tenacious about a month ago, was hoping unlocking would get easier after constant flipping, the detent and lockbar are amazingly strong, it only got fractionally better so I disassembled and cleaned some stuck on gunk from blade under the washer, seems a little better. my thumb feels like the hulks now from playing with this for a month and when I use other knives lock bars seem too easy. I guess I could have bent the bar a little when I had it apart but was afraid of messing it up.

I know what you want.......but you can't have it
:worthless:
3 weeks ago I went to the farm with my cousin, bit of a break for me but they're trying to sell the place, and there's a lot that needs to be done before that can happen.....
But this is the Spyderco thread.....so on to the meat. My Pacific went along, it needs some pocket miles and I figured if something similar to last time happens, at least the yellow will be easier to see :facepalm:
First really surprising thing is the Pacific rides and more importantly stays in my pocket better than the Salt 1.........I assume the Salt 1 is just short enough to catch my leg when I sit down and self-eject, not an issue with the Pacific.
We had to try and unblock a 60m deep bore hole, the blockage was past 40m and our effort involved knotting several tow straps together with a 22kg piece of steel at the end, hoisting up and dropping it into the hole.
The borehole is still blocked, the Spyderco Pacific glides through a tow strap 8)
I was again left with that feeling you do not need more knife than that...... :salute:

Here is another really bada$$ knife.This,as can be seen,was designed by Robert Terzuola.He was the first knife-maker to have coined the term "tactical folder" ,which is in common use today.He designed knives for Benchmade,Microtech and Spyderco.
This was termed the Starmate,I believe.It was made of one of the first super steels created by Crucible.It was also made in their Golden Colorado plant.
This not a photoshopped image,I do own two.

Well I don't have any Halloween pictures but I do have a cool Spyderco to display.This was designed by Butch Vallotton and is one of the most unique knives ever produced by Spyderco.

tasty and classy! :drool: And I'd say appropriate for Halloween, because it was the knife that appeared to threaten people in the Gotham TV show so it's kind of Spooky :dunno:

I was a Spyderco Dealer when the line consisted only of 100% stainless steel models.
Here are three of them that I still have from when I was a dealer.
Top one is Copilot, middle one is a serrated Worker, and bottom one is a serrated Police model.
I gave the Worker and Police models to my dad and he used a file to make the lines on the handles for looks.
If you look closely at the picture of them showing the pocket clips you will see that he filed jimping on the back of the blades where your thumb would rest.

I bought this yesterday at a flea market and I was exceptionally pleased with myself the whole rest of the day thinking I had found a rare Civilian for only $30.00 U.S.D.. Then I started doing some research and reading threads on the Spyderco Forums, and I'm now about 90% convinced that I have a fake. :oops: That last 10% is only hanging on because I hate to accept that I could have been taken in so easily. :facepalm:
It seems that the Chinese copies have gotten really, really good lately. They are very nearly exact copies of the originals and the fit and finish is perfect. The one thing that the Spyderco Forums members all seem to agree on is that the Civilian never came in orange. :twak: So, the good news is I didn't pay $200 for it and I can now feel free to abuse the smurf out of it because it is definitely not a collectible and I will never sell it.

Scary lookin' knife.

-

Getting to this point has been a struggle for me, if I don't use the knife it becomes a mental millstone around my neck......money wasted.
I've been bashing myself up for months trying to decide between a HAP40 Cally and the mid-back lock Manix. I'm ga-ga for that Manix, but the S30V is not "special" enough for me :facepalm: and I suspect it would be to big....
That roll is perfectly filled by the Pac Salt...... :salute:
The Caly with the green handle is very pretty, and I suspect if I ever had it in hand, I might have chosen it. I suspect it's a bit heavy for the size.......and really too pretty to be a user.
Then recently this grey handle popped out at me.....
Honestly never thought any of the Para's would end up in my stable, will be my first and only compression lock I guess. Size I know if perfect for what I prefer to carry....which I still find strange considering my size :think: With Spyderco you can safely assume the ergos will be good.... :salute:
After doing some research (thank you Michael Christy & co :salute: ) I realised CruWear ticks just about all the boxes I could want check.......super tool steel and a user.....
Also.......strangely cheap for a super steel sprint run.

I handled a Para 3 at the factory. Sweet knife.
I've got big hands and prefer the ergos of the Para 2 or even the Military. But then you end up with a big knife, which is not the point of the Para 3.
The Manix 2 has ergos similar to the Para's, but if forced to chose, I'd go with the Para's (again, a big hands issue). I also prefer the compression lock to the ball-detent lock. For me the compression lock is just a tad easier to manipulate.
As far as steel goes, CruWear is good stuff and Spydoe does a great job with it. I've got a Military in Cru and it's great. But, at this point, S30V seems to have become my default steel. As I really like it.
The Manix below has S90V steel, but I don't have enough experience with it to have an opinion, yet. Zero complaints so far, though. The PM3 is sporting S30V.

Awesome! When I have about $115 saved for a new folder. The Para 3 is on the top of the list! Even though I could get a Benchmade or a ZT for that price...It still wouldn't be Spyderco lol
-
:facepalm:
Well, I have huge hands but I prefer smaller knives......let's hope the ergos work or it'll be a very expensive mistake....
Studying the 2019 catalog I realised there is one more Spyderco I'll have to buy......the Native 5 Salt :woohoo:

Only thing I can chime to this is that the Para 2 has not left my side in one form or another since getting it. In pocket, in the jacket, in one of my EDC bags, where I go it goes. And even though it might look rather large with thoughtful handling it doesn't scare that many people

I've got this horrible itch to open up my Para 3, despite KNOWING they used permanent thread locker :oops:
I'm starting to fall for the knife, just want to hurry along the break-in a bit :facepalm:
Carried and used it the two occasions I went anywhere the past long weekend, and I have to say the steel is a revelation....
Not necessarily the CruWear, pretty sure the experience will be the same with many modern super steels.
For some reason I can't properly disengage the compression lock with my middle finger, so I need to change grip and use my index finger :think:
Decided this weekend that the Para 3 will be for the office/IT job in the AM, and the Skyline for the PM job in the engineering shop.....it's already been used to trim bushing rubbers on about 40 shock absorbers....
........But this morning the grey G10 and shiny clip looked a bit obvious against blue pants....

When you lose interest in that Para3 you can ship it down south.
Really liking V-Toku2 ; can’t wait for the Dragonfly and Stretch.

Nice pocket clip. :tu: :like: You a lefty?
SO it turns out you were correct about the Lefty orientation here! ???
I completely forgot that I changed it on this Delica to see if I could get used to carrying on the other side and I can not even remember why now? :dunno:
I wear Carhart pants with extra pockets on both sides and evidently I had some brilliant idea about it when I switched it!
Guess I need to carry this one more?

I’d like a deep carry clip for it. I’ve found them on eBay but they make them (out of titanium) to order and it’s a six week wait. I’m just too impatient to spend nearly $30 on a clip and have to wait.
I think the guy should go ahead and make a few batches. I’m sure they’d sell!!

For now only the second part of Show & Tell....
During my few days off I finally took to my chipped Maxamet Mule with the Lansky, I was a little bit worried and it did take a bit of effort with the extra coarse diamond stone to get the chips out, but after that it was plain sailing.
:whistle:
The thing is a lazer :woohoo:
Also, feel free to search and check for yourself, Super Steel Steve did a toughness comparison of Maxamet and S30V......not scared to use the Mule....didn't pay for it :like:
Becoming very good friends with my Para3, it's basically my EDC now, everywhere except the engineering shop where I work afternoons.

Just spent a good(bad) 1 1/2 hours disassembling Persistence to remove factory grease from pivot. Unfortunately the lanyard column must be peened or something and I couldn't take liners & scales fully off(didnt want to crack G10 scales around lanyard hole, :think: maybe should have watched a youtube vid b4hand), had to work through partially wedged open pivot side but was able to clean it up, & with assist from vic tweezers get the washers & stop pin back in, but it fought back pretty hard. Also thanks to LM wave pliers with another assist holding torx columns,needed 1 bit to unscrew but needed 2 T6 bits and a third arm[belly button :rofl:]. No idea why they use this thick stinky grease, action is much better with oil & smells better lol.
Long boring story, it can probably be pushed through but I was getting flustered and playing operation was kinda fun in a panicky masochistic way, but when you cant afford the pricier models....you get what you pay for :twak:.
Tools used: 2 T6 bits, 1 T8, 3 bit drivers, 1 Leatherman wave, 1 Vic classic tweezer, 1 dental flosser plastic pick, 1 energizer headlamp>batteries died, 1 Olight headlamp, 10 tissues, 3 paper towels, rubbing alcohol, 8 Qtips, 2 advils. :facepalm:

Yesterday, I received a nice package from Hawill's. They are a Massachusetts Fire / Search & Rescue outfitter. They've been selling some goodies on eBay. I found a phone number and called the guy up, offering to drive over and pay cash, but he insisted I go through eBay, as he was se doing a portion of the proceeds to a firefighters charity directly through paypal.
The item I purchased was a February 1998, orange Spyderco Rescue Jr., of the ATS-55 steel. New Old Stock. In the bag, which was in the box.
And shaahhhp as the dickens.
Also just got a new cell phone and haven't figured out yet how to reduce this 3 mb pic into a 500 kb yet.

Watched a Para3 Cruwear cut test this morning, glad to hear Spyderco got them up to almost 62 HRC :cheers:

Just hearing there was an LW model coming made me doubt my purchase....nothing wrong with the LW and great sprint run potential, but I'm glad I got the full-fat Para3
It's my Friday carry :cheers:
I'm just hoping the universe allows a Native 5 Salt to roll my way......that would scratch my LW itch :rofl:

I kinda like the deeper clip on the Para 3 LW, I can't afford either one, but gonna try to save for one.
I treated myself after the redundancy, my severance package filled a few gaps, the Para3 was to feel better.......my chances of having funds for the Native are somewhere between zero and smurf-all....
I was worried about the clip, but it hasn't been a problem.
A colleague spotted my Skyline the other day......of course couldn't figure out how to open or close it again, but that made me wonder how long before somebody moans.....
The Para3 is my Friday carry......except if I have dark pants on...that clip is a bit bright....

Anyone own the Robin 2 stainless steel version? Just wondering how it's put together, I dont see any screws on the scales or even pivot screws or a pivot for that matter :rofl: what gives? The black ss version has screws and pivot ??? The Ti, G10 and Frn all have screws, this is one weird knife

Picked up a Native 5 LW the week before last, and stopped at a well known Boston Army Navy to grab their last Atlantic Salt.
Both just great knives.
Having trouble with this new phone's photo editor so all my pics are too large and can't post.
And I may have said...about a month ago, picked up NOS 1998 orange Rescue Jr. So elegant and now rare, I dont want to use it.
I've got a line on a NOS Salt 1 serrated with "Salt..." on the blade instead of H1. Pretty perked about that

Now if only your first name was Vasili, you would have a VW Bug!
I gat a million of 'em!
Thanks, I'll be here all week

I'd like to thank Cap'n Spaulding for starting me down this road...
Just picked up an older, but NOS Spyderco Salt 1 serrated blade. Has Salt 1 engraved in the blade instead of H1, and the thicker jimping steps over the thumb hole. Pinned construction. Date code on the box is HE, so I guess that's from 2005.
Still unable to post pics as I cannot resize on this phone and I am not a member of imagur or photobucket or whatever.
That's a black handled Delica circa 1998
A NOS orange Rescue Jr., also from 1998
The NOS yellow Salt 1 serrated from 2005
A yellow PE Salt 1 from 2014
A black Native 5 PE from 2018
A yellow Atlantic Salt from 2018
And a couple of Byrd Cara Cara Rescue 2's from last year
Thanks a lot, Cap'n. Before the Delica you gifted me, I had none. Now I have a problem. I guess this is the MTO way?

Hi Barry!
Hope alls well!
Yes, an old ATS-55 Delica is what got me hooked. Nice light little knife. Had a been more open minded and less hung up on tradition years ago, I could have been carrying a much lighter knife in my pack on all those hikes
-
I felt the same way my friend. When I first laid eyes on my Endura, I thought it was pretty dang homely. When I picked it up, though, I could absolutely feel the quality coming out of it. That's when it became gorgeous to me!

Been trying to break in a new Byrd Robin2 for a week, but it is still rough, possibly the blade tang or lockbar that rides it were not sanded or polished fully making deployment herky jerky and not smooth. Have tried oiling and cleaning over and over, disassembly did not work with loctite on scale screws(not pivot) ate 2 of my T6 bits, I'm down to 1 :-\ .
Got this as a user to keep my Dragonfly nice, but it doesnt even compare in the QC dept. Dragonfly opens like hot knife through vanilla ice cream, but Robin feels like it's going through Rocky Road. It has gotten slightly smoother with hundreds of openings but not sure if it's just par for the course with this model(my other byrds are smooth) I will say it's probably the sharpest knife I own and cuts great and I will most likely keep it as I'm not sure I will have better luck on an exchange
-
Some suggestions...
Clean the knife with hot, soapy water and an old toothbrush. Sometimes there is just manufacturing debris in there that needs to get cleaned out.
Don’t lube or oil the knife. With the knife dry, load up the pivot with toothpaste and open close for 50 cycles. Wash throughly, let dry and then see how it works. If it's still too stiff, try it again.
Good luck, good knife so hope you come right! :hatsoff:
-
Thanks Max I may give one of those ideas a try.

Grey Robin2 I was whining about ::) with Dragonfly for comparison
(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47611816851_ecde7b0c36_z.jpg)
Both are insanely sharp, but clear winner is Dragonfly(duh), better ergos, better clip, better steel, better Fit & Finish.
Robin has more clip positions, much tighter and painful to use lock release, grittier opening action although it has steel liners and washers and DF has none.
it's a very good knife at <$22.

Do yourself a favor and get the Para 3 LW. It’s my perfect EDC and I have quite a few that are close. Must still build and opinion on the BD1N but it seems to be a harder 14c28n in my estimation, almost s30v levels of edge retention and ease of sharpening.
It’s not leaving my pocket anytime soon.

Do yourself a favor and get the Para 3 LW. It’s my perfect EDC and I have quite a few that are close. Must still build and opinion on the BD1N but it seems to be a harder 14c28n in my estimation, almost s30v levels of edge retention and ease of sharpening.
It’s not leaving my pocket anytime soon.

Thanks David! It doesn't help when your son is a Spydie fan :facepalm:. I like that Para myself!

I'm a big Spyderco fan. Got lots of them. Still carry a Military or Police Model a lot. They dont make into the pics very often but they are there or close by.

:iagree: Like you Barry, I didn't start to appreciate Spyderco until recent years, and I remembered PM2 was what converted my mind.

Oh your good comis. :D If Barry uses those or similar lines he'll have a Para Military Shortly. :mail:
-
As he should.....
-
I dont have a Para Military as I never thought it would fit my hand. Never seen one in the wild to try it out for fit. I love the Military and consider it to be one of the best designed knives of modern times and an all time classic. :)
-
I have big hands...not in a freakish way...but even XL gloves can feel a bit small to me. So, naturally, I love the Spydie Military. It's a great knife in my opinion, too. I've got a couple of them in various permutations. I love that handle!
But the PM2 is a bit easier to carry due to it's smaller size. Smaller but still quite good. The original Paramiitary was not so great. It's a nice knife, but there is something slightly "off" about the ergos. They fixed that with the PM2. In a big way. The PM2 is a tad larger and the curves and bumps are all in the right places. The integral lock is outstanding.
The PM2 would have to be included on my "Top Ten Folders" list. And....in fact...it is probably in my "Final Five" list. I encouraged you to seek out a PM2, fabulous knife.
I've got no experience with the PM3 (I think I held one once, but don't recall my impressions that well). The PM3 seems to me to be downsized too far. However, I know many people love it. My personal preference is for the PM2 or the Military.

Three years of being treated like a cheap POS, cutting heavy materials, and being rarely cleaned or oiled, and it still works great. I'm thinking about getting a PE Ladybug and/or a Manbug Rescue Salt in the near future. And maybe a Dragonfly.

They quit making them several years ago. They pop up on the bay occasionally. Since they are in high demand your proably going to shell out some cash for one. :)

Sort of Goldilocks just right size folder?
Same size as PM2.
I think of it as a compact Endura rather than a larger Delica.

Got this Spydie Manix 2 XL today (while being 100 bucks poorer). A bit more than I would like to spend, but the green micarta scales made up for it.
The bandage on the thumb is courtesy of a tip-up Benchmade in my jeans. The blade probably popped out after I pulled my wallet. There went a slide on the thumb and a hole on the pocket. :-[ I never pay attention to tipping up or down. Now I do.

That 'Spydie' Mannix XL 2 is really a nice-looking blade, chrono! I'm not too-much of a fan of the small Spyderco plastic-handled models. Micarta, or G10 is the definite-way-to-go, and makes for a stronger over-all carry. In the 'knife-world' you usually get what you pay for. :cheers:

I don't have problem with FRN handles, as long as the price is right. But yeah, G10, Micarta, CF... handles are better performers while adding a classier touch to the look.

I got a para3 LW for myself as an early bday present, but I think this was a lemon...pocket clip was bent and askew, centering of blade was poor, almost touching scale, and opening action very poor, difficult to middle/fore finger flick without using wrist(I have Tenacious and resilience and both do this easily) Lock was a little pinchy on your palm when open with thumb flick.
I took it apart and it was quite clean inside, put it back together and was just as bad. I had broke it in for a half hour and was falling shut nicely with compression lock, but these other problems were not getting any better and I couldnt straighten clip without making it weaker, so it's going back. Honestly it felt like a cheapo knife, I can't even justify that price tag when you get awesome CIvivi knifes for half that price which come with a case, microfiber cloth and have perfect centering and opening/closing action.
I'm sure other people have gotten decent samples, but this was really poor, I do have a Ladybug, Dragonfly, Delica & Endura which are stellar products...have a few Byrds, one is kinda lemony but I kept it, and my Chinese Spydies are decent, so I don't quite get this offering.
-
When I was disassembling it I was watching the Glesser video I posted a few pages back on how to take it apart, at the end of the video hes just starring into the camera, I'm looking down at the knife and back at him just SMH :rofl:
I cant see why they wouldnt add another short liner and a second washer, I think the action and centering would be vastly better :dunno:
This was the first compression lock model I have handled, will probably try a Para 2 one day if I can save up...but I don't think I would try this one again.
-
Sorry to hear that......and a bit strange....
I would easily take the LW chassis if its got my CruWear blade in......lovely stuff.
That said, not like my Para3's ever felt too heavy...

Here's my partners off day carry. She hesitated since it didn't have a lanyard hole but I rigged the lanyard and it seems to work for her. The thinness is what she really liked since her jeans and other pants fit like some/most girls pants ;) and it makes for a more comfortable carry.

I prefer the G10 to FRN, it’s a lot of knife for the money, being made in China helps keep the price down. That said the fit and finish is perfect so don’t think that effects the quality of manufacture. The steel is a cheaper Chinese steel but it should hold up great for the use it will get . And being a third of the price of a pm2 I won’t cry if I lose it.

If you can open/disassemble the tenacious give it a good cleaning and re oil, it gets a lot smoother, flicks like a dream after I did this, but just bear in mind the lanayrd hole wont let you separate the scales completely.
The Chinese models usually have a thick grease they apply to pivot, that and the black coating & factory debris makes it rough when you first get it, but a little cleaning makes a world of difference.

Bushcraft with custom scales? :think:
I have a very serious hankering for a K390 Police 4.........my budget has other ideas.
A knife that costs more than any holiday I've been on in the last decade :facepalm:

Nice looking knife toolguy :like: :tu:
Love the look of the handle
-
Nice one TOOLGUY. I believe thats the Bushcrafter with the Burl handles. They were cracking so Spyderco stopped production and discounted them with no warranty. I missed getting one. At least thats what I think is in the picture :dunno:.
-
It is nice....shame the wood was cracking! Thanks :tu:

Can you believe the Pacific Salt is being discontinued?

What? No I didn’t...oh boy

I just saw it on the Spyderco Forum. I'm surprised because it's a great seller.
-
Well if they are discontinued it’s probably due to lack of sales! Or a new improved model?

You are correct.A friend sent a text making me aware of the sale.
I was fortunate that my example had no cracks.I can't remember what I paid for it but $80.00 comes to mind.I could be mistaken though.
The friend,who sent the text,received one that had a crack in the handle.He told me that he mixed some clear epoxy and pushed it into the crack and it has remained stable since then.

This is a Remote Release.It has a built in carabiner.The opening and closing is activated by the device built into the side of the knife.

Thanks.
This comes in handy when pocket carry is problematic.For instance when using a backpack with a waistbelt.
Or wearing tactical gear including a weapon holster ect.,ect.
You then can attach to a d ring or another attachment designed for that purpose.

That's a great idea!

:iagree: :hatsoff:

Can’t imagine sales are the reason.
Every knife and tool nerd I know has a Pacific Salt and loves it.
That said we are a very small percentage of the customer base.

What does LC200 bring to the table that wasn’t already supplied by H1?

Better edge retention on PE blades. Thats what I've read at least.

for all practical purposes just as rust proof as H1 but with edge retention similar to S30/S35VN...... :hatsoff:
Native 5 Salt and the CruWear/Micarta Shaman......those two would complete my life :facepalm:
Yeah right...... :rofl:

I dont have a Pacific Salt, however, everyone who I know that has one ehaults them.
My preference is the Atlantic Salt, which o do have, and the Salt 1, of which I have 2.
Are they maybe going with that new 2000 steel instead of H1?

Sorry for copying the entire post, there

I'm an Atlantic Salt fan too Thundah... don't own one yet but I know someone who does!

Would love something H1 like in rust resistance but with enough edge retention that I could run it in plain edge.

Are there any hard-core spyderco fans here? I have gotten a new Byrd tern and it doesnt look like the one I had before. I cant tell whether either are authentic. Also bought a used Manix 2 lightweight with bd1 steel. Also can't tell authenticity.... Anyone can help? I can take detail pics. Thanks in advance.

Im not an expert on the two models you mentioned. There are others who can help. There is a thread around here somewhere about fake Spydercos.
Found it. (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,54892.msg957556.html#msg957556)

Thanks David. I also did some googling but cant find alot on details. The Byrd Tern is a budget model so I wasnt expecting any clones but the 2 I have looks different. The Manix's text and logo just looked a bit different from my other Spydercos. I do not have alot of them but most I have are more on the lighter side and not as dark as the one on my Manix 2. Also, its a BD1 steel model so I expected any clones to be marked as S30 or better.
Here are the pics. Sorry if I flood the thread...... :salute:
Model: Byrd Tern. Please ignore the terrible reshaping for the one on the right......
Left is the recent one I bought. Right is one I bought I think early this year.. Both from Ebay.... I know.... :facepalm:
The screw on the left uses T8 and T6 on the right. Note there is no option to mount the wire clip on the other side on the model on the right.

Oddly, I like the older 'Spydies'. But the newer-ones seem to be multiple-versions of the same old thing. If you like the 'birds-head' pattern, no problem, more power to you. They're good if you like an unobtrusive pocket-slicer, or can't/won't carry something more. :cheers: :hatsoff:

They have evolved into the best production knife company in the world, and my personal favourite part is all the different steels, and ergonomics.
From the few I've seen it seems some of their older models look weirder and more out there than even today. :salute:

I’ve had a handful of Spyderco knives. Native, delica, GB, dragonfly 2 and a PM2. I loved them all, but for one reason or another sold them. My last was the PM2. Loved that compression lock. Still moved it along. I’ve tried getting along with $50 and under folders and there are a lot of perfectly capable knives out there in that price range. There always felt like something was missing though. So, I ordered another Spydie. Should be here around Christmas.
-
We're all enablers my friend!!
Just so happens Nick Shabaz's "buy once cry once" video auto played yesterday, and it's true.
My friend is Mr Sound Financial Decisions, so despite having money, getting the knife nearly at cost, it's still more than he'd like to spend....
We were both about to buy the new Honey Badger Wharncleaver in D2 (with blue scales), he wanted to get an Atlantic Salt because they've been discontinued (good reason) and wants to try a better steel (which it is not)
I won't be getting the Honey Badger anymore, but at least the PM2 will be blue :rofl:
I only regret the cheap knives.
-
I only regret the cheap knives.
:iagree:. After buying a handful of cheap knives I could have spent that money on one nice one. It was a fun learning process but yeah buy once cry once.
I have a few Spydies. My absolute favorite is my Dragonfly. I have 2 Delicas, one Native fully serrated, a Squeak, Tenacious, Persistence, and........ Oh my. FEW? :dunno: I have several I guess. I have 2 fixed blades as well, Jumpmaster and Bushcrater. :facepalm:
-
Once you start, it's hard to quit :D. Each model has a personality all its own.
-
:iagree:
I looked for a slim Spydie for my partner for a while. She initially wanted a Dragonfly when I got mine. After looking and looking she and I thought the Chaparral would be a good one to try. Unfortunately once we got it her work decided to rescind employees carrying blades unless they were in the field. Its been a great knife and she does enjoy carrying it off days. Slim enough to carry in her wristlette purse thing when she wears a skirt.
-
That's what impresses me about the Spyderco lineup. There's a knife for everyone, no matter what their situation dictates.
-
Once you start, it's hard to quit :D. Each model has a personality all its own.
That is so true! :facepalm:
-
:iagree: :ahhh
-
. My absolute favorite is my Dragonfly.
Now that is a knife I need, problem is price.....they are very expensive for what they are....can't get myself that far :cry:
After getting the Manix I badly want the Lil Native mid back-lock, the Manix is not heavy but it is large in the pocket, if I could get that same action in a smaller package that would be great :gimme:
One thing about the Manix I knew going in was the not great blade/OAL ratio. From some use I feel the blade is long enough and you can practically extend the reach using the choil area.
To put things in perspective, cutting edge length is basically the same on the Manix and my Para3 :facepalm:
-
I made the leap and got a Dragonfly a few months ago Gerhard. I kept hearing all the great things about them, but was a bit put off by the cost. I found a good deal on a plain edge zone scale, and got it. They're an absolute delight to carry! It fits in my watch pocket so we'll, I forget it's there. Keep your eye out. You won't regret it!

Exactly. Plus, the retention on this clip is not the greatest. I don’t need to quick draw, so I like a clip that sticks to the pocket a bit more. I’ll give it a day or two before I form an opinion. I ordered blue hardware for the knife also, so I really hope I end up liking this clip.
-
Nice scales! :cheers:
They are G-10 carbon fiber ply. They look pretty good and have good grip. I thought about getting some micarta scales, but heard that messes with the alignment of the blade. This one has perfect blade centering right now, so I’m not gonna go that route. :cheers:

The Ti clip has grown on me. I was skeptical about the ability for it to stay in my pocket, but have been impressed. I can tuck the pivot end in my pocket and just drop it. The low profile of the clip doesn’t allow anything to catch that would lead to me losing my knife. Plus, I’m really diggin the blue on black.

His Burpleness matched the most expensive knife I've ever bought, at least the PM2 will be used.
S110V factory edge is sticky sharp, hard to imagine that it could be even better after a few re-sharpenings.....

The Ti clip has grown on me. I was skeptical about the ability for it to stay in my pocket, but have been impressed. I can tuck the pivot end in my pocket and just drop it. The low profile of the clip doesn’t allow anything to catch that would lead to me losing my knife. Plus, I’m really diggin the blue on black.

His Burpleness matched the most expensive knife I've ever bought, at least the PM2 will be used.
S110V factory edge is sticky sharp, hard to imagine that it could be even better after a few re-sharpenings.....

Decided to see what all the fuss was about deep carry pocket clips. This blue titanium one came in the mail today. Guess I’ll find out. It’s not bad looking, but I do miss seeing the spider in the factory clip. Little things.
That Smock is interesting. Is only the main blade sharpened or is the second also sharpened like on a tanto?

Just the main thankfully. It is an interesting knife. It has its flaws, but they are outweighed by the feel and action of knife.

Sorry no pics yet, but I've carried and used the PM2 and I love it.....its more Endura size while I'm a Delica man, but it fits my hand better than the Para3, and it was no hassle to carry :salute:
Its cut biltong, lemons, carved out and jointed two sticks from soft palm tree wood to support a plant........and flipped it endlessly during the evenings.
On the Para3 I need to actuate the compression lock with my middle finger, for the PM2 I use my index finger which feels and works better.

Finally got a PM2. Out of the box was nearly perfect, centering dead on, but action a little stiff, closed like an hydraulic piston, kinda slow and I had to rotate my wrist as it shut. Tried oiling but didn't help, I loosened the pivot a fraction after about a week and its much better now, and getting better with more break in. I think the DLC blades are more prone to friction.
Unlike my Tenacious or Resilience, could not middle finger flick without wrist action for 3 weeks until yesterday and watching cutlery lover vid about flick did the trick. Its a bit easier to flick the Chinese models that have smaller hole, and you can move finger perpendicular to scales and grip doesnt seem to matter. PM2 have to grip it oddly with knife flat on your palm and flick towards gimping with your nail or its fail city.
Overall very happy with it, great ergos, fantastic G10 scales, unreal fit & finish and super sharp. I had returned Para 3 LW which was a bit of a lemon and put the $ towards this, very good decision I think. Just deciding now if I should move clip to tip up or get a deep carry clip, it's kinda a pocket hog with tip down, but I also don't like the imprints on scales around the screw holes when you move clip.

Congrats, enjoy! :cheers:
In my hand, nothing middle finger flicks like the PM2. I grip it right on the pivot between thumb and index finger, just support it with ring finger and pinky,
WHY WHY WHY do Spyderco ship everything in tip down orientation?
The whole world carries tip up, rather than marketing a "4-position pocket clip" I'd like tip-up left or right...........and no holes to allow muck into the pivot/washers :ahhh
-
:cheers: Gerhard! I agree with you on the PM2. Mine came out of the box with zero play and it flicked open like nothing I own, but it seems to fit my medium sized hands very well.
For the life of me, I don't understand why everything from Spyder Control ships tip down :facepalm:
-
Yeah in my medium to smallish hands I cant get it to work that way without some wrist movement, but maybe it just needs a little more break in, I cant loosen pivot any further without getting play, and like I said it doesnt slam shut like many videos I saw, but the slower closing is perhaps better on the stop pin.
I saw others had loosened the stop pin screws a bit to get more free swinging action, but I'll leave that for the future
-
I don't blame you Blackbeard. Sometimes it just takes some break-in. The PM2 is the only model I can manage to flick open and close one handed. I have a Dragonfly, Endura 4, and Delica 4, as well as a Vic Trekker that takes me moving my hands and wrist to operate one handed
-
I can't seem to catch the Para3's blade on closing, 90% of the time I need to slip it onto the detent with my finger.
I was a bit worried because I knew my PM2 was #2 of 2 in stock at the supplier in SA, both crossed the border inside two weeks. No reason to worry, mine was centered, smooth and perfect. :cheers:
Only concern was the torx hole in the pocket clip seems very shallow.......and then there's the LocTite issue..... :facepalm:
I would love to dissemble the PM2 and Para3 but I'm very scared of stripping screws.
I'm a back-lock man, but despite the slight lock stick on the Para3 I'm a compression lock convert, it wins in most departments except that it messes with my operation of other locks :facepalm:
-
Need some opinions, my Manix' blade "closes with authority" :hatsoff:
I know this is a fidgeting problem more than anything else, but I'm almost worried the heel stop of the blade sort of peens over with time?
BTW, the Manix despite the influence of the back lock feels even smoother than the PM2 and Para3..........smooth like I image a Chris Reeves knife would be. :cheers:

Have to say that does not look comfortable or safe for that matter, doubt I could flick it from that position.
I have big hands but not particularly long fingers so that changes things.
I would still suggest try moving your thumb up closer to the pivot, that should also give you much more leverage with your middle finger.
-
Spyder fans, which do you prefer, PM2 or PM3?
Very difficult choice because my pocket says Para3 and my hand PM2.
At this stage the Para3 would win because of the Cruwear. :cheers:

Yeah I tried every other position, for weeks lol, this was the only one that worked for me due to my hand size and I think the coated blades aren't as flicky, and you really need to hit the hole pushing it toward gimping. it is pretty safe though kinda have a triangle contact area with palm, thumb and pointer finger, was even doing it with my eyes closed to get the muscle memory...but it may eventually wear down the DLC under the washer and will flick more normally
Here's the vid that finally got it working for me

I was at my buddy's shop yesterday after work, stepping into his office the first question was if I could Spydie flick his Native 5 Salt.
I could....1 out of 5 times.
Which brings me to my next point......only time I EVER Spydie flick is in front of the TV, when using the knife in everyday life I take it out and sweep it open with my thumb. :salute:

It shouldn't be a problem with the lock mechanism. The ball bearing that is the lock engagement rolls with the back of the blade. So it shouldn't cause any wear. I haven't had any problems at all with mine. Nice gave it to me a couple years ago and I haven't had a single complaint with it. Probably one of the best USA made spydercos out there

I HAVE to get my hands on a Spyderco in the near future. I have not owned one since the mid 1990's but I am very impressed with the types of steel that Spyderco is working with these days. I really want a Manix or a Para2 in S110V. My current favorite knife is in CPM-20CV and I hear that S110V is even better. I also prefer thumb holes to thumb studs as I often feel the thumb studs can get in the way of certain cutting tasks. (My Benchmade is a 550-1 with a thumbhole)

Thanks, guys! When I purchased the 'Keating' at an Army/Navy store it was a steal for $146.00 USD. :D :cheers: :tu:
-
Do any of you have experience with the Spyderco offerings in S110V? Curious about your thoughts on this steel.
-
I have, but only light use.
Takes a great edge and haven't touched it up yet.
But like I said, I'm a light user :shrug:

Yeah in my medium to smallish hands I cant get it to work that way without some wrist movement, but maybe it just needs a little more break in, I cant loosen pivot any further without getting play, and like I said it doesnt slam shut like many videos I saw, but the slower closing is perhaps better on the stop pin.
I saw others had loosened the stop pin screws a bit to get more free swinging action, but I'll leave that for the future
PM2 5 month progress report: Action did not improve over this 5ish month period, if knife was sitting and lube was cold it had to be played with for a few minutes to warm up and action got good, but put it down and 5 minutes later it was sluggish again. So I just did a disassembly, rotating the scales out of the way without breaking lanyard tube peen, found a thick factory grease like the Chinese models, cleaned it up & slight polish on washers on a piece of leather. Lubed with some Vic oil, it reassembled perfectly thankfully, and moved clip for tip up carry. Happily the action is much improved now. In case anyone is interested, pivot is T10, handle screws T8, clip screws T6.
-
That's more like it! That knife should be so smooth it almost opens on its own. Glad to hear you got it tuned up!
-
yeah i'm glad it's getting to where I want, I've got some blue loctite on the clip screws so I'm letting it sit before I get to fidget with it again in a day, not sure if I should locktite the other screws yet, but at least it wont be such a pocket hog now with the clip reversed.

My 2 Endura. I posted this pic in the MTO Unleashed thread and thought I might as well post it here.
Top: G10 with plain edged blade, full flat grind
Bottom: FRN with combo blade, sabre grind.
The Endura FRN has been my workhorse knife for several years. No complaints whatsoever.
I don´t carry the Endura G10; it is for my collection.

Anyone spent $200+ on that BladeHQ-exclusive copper-scale PM2? I was thinking about dropping the dough for it, then missed the time by 1/2 hr. :-\ Then, I found I did not really miss it, as I would really hate the smell of copper on the hand. :P

Has anyone found where you can get replacement/spare wire pocket clips? I want to try hot bluing and cold bluing to see how it lasts. I'd like a spare to try the hot bluing on in case it distorts so badly it won't go back into shape. They look like lovely deep carry clips, but would like them darker to blend in better with what I normally wear.

I got this black beauty trio recently :D May some experts tell me more about them? I know they are old, like before 2000, but would like to know:
- Model name and production number
- Steel type
- Vintage
- MSRP
What I see from them:
- All steel handles
- All black coated. However, if I remove the clip, the knife spot contacting the clip's flat portion is uncoated
- Clips have US PATENT 4347665 FOREIGN PATS PEND stamp
- The Police has POLICE MODEL stamp, no steel type
- The Mariner has MARINER stamp, no steel type
- I do not know what the last one is. No steel stamp. Is it a Stretch? :think:
I keep a spreadsheet of my blade collection. It drives me nut, as info on these is hard to find.

Nope. Swayback.
https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/C249TI/1884
Inspired by 19th century English Jack knives, the sway back pattern is a stylish and extremely functional cutting tool. In his latest Spyderco collaboration, renowned Polish knifemaker Marcin Slysz supercharges this classic design by rendering it with state-of-the-art materials and craftsmanship.
The SwayBack’s hollow-ground Wharncliffe blade is crafted from CTS® XHP stainless steel and has a handsome stonewashed finish. It is housed in an open-backed handle constructed with solid titanium scales. Both scales are beautifully crowned for comfort and the reverse-side scale forms the foundation of a sturdy Reeve Integral Lock (R.I.L.) with a stainless steel interface.
A polished stainless steel clip provides convenient carry and is reversible for left or right-side tip-up access.

I've never been a fan of the Emerson opener only because it aesthetically kind of ruins the blade for me. When I left Tennessee a year and a half ago I gave away my switch blade because even with laxer restrictions in NYC, carrying a switchblade is a serious offense ::) Now that I'm living in a rural area where people openly carry knives and guns, I decided to get a new toy, a Spyderco Byrd Cara Cara 2 with an Emerson opener. Well I have to say after carrying it for a few weeks, I really like it. It's faster to deploy than my old switchblade and really fun to play around with. But what really struck me is how well it is made for an economy model. The fit and finish is fantastic. Lockup is awesome. Blade grind is perfect and for the first time in a long time I didn't have to rework the edge bevels. They are exquisitely ground probably around about 12 degrees per side. I did polish the edge a bit with a ceramic rod and between that and the full flat grind, this thing slices beautifully. Absolutely worth the $40 delivered that I spent. Quite happy with it :tu:

Well, I won my first Spyderco on auction this morning. As you can see if you click the link, I paid $24.50 plus shipping for it. (The shipping will be combined with 7 other auction lots, so not too spendy).
I do not see a model number or anything on this model....clearly it must be one of their cheaper ones, and is made out of the Cr13MoV steel.
Anybody know what model it is?

Delica Clipit G2 Seki. Half serration.
Found in thrift store for $2.95.
Really like the old Spydercos.
Does anyone know why Spyderco stopped making Delica Clipits?
I much prefer the integral plastic clip to the wire clips.
We’re they prone to breaking off?
Or is Spyderco still making them and I just haven’t seen them?
Pictured is the vintage Delica Clipit beneath my Resilience.

Break and replace makes sense. So would lack of switching placement left and right.
But, boy, do I prefer it in plastic and integrated. It’s like it isn’t even there.
Guess I better hang on to this one with an unbroken clip.
Oh, what the hell! Let’s beg!
C’mon Sal! One last run from the heart. Put an Spy steel blade on it. This was the definitive old hole knife IMHO. Dust off the mold.
Or, what the hell! Make a run of Clipit swappable scales in CNCed G10 that fit Tenacious.
The old ones are like a pre smog American car or truck. So simple. So easy to maintain. Just the thing itself and none of the junk.
And how I would love a left handed sprint run of these in a super steel. :drool:
Sold out in 60 seconds!

So: 1999...it looked like a good tool—knife, crescent and a driver.
Spyderco has always seemed to either have had a problem achieving tool density comparable to Leatherman and Gerber, or their business model prevented them from making trying worth the effort. And Leatherman and Gerber cannot match Victorinox’s tool density.
The only company that gave Victorinox a run for its money on tool density was Wenger. My S557 is the densest multitool I have ever held. It’s amazing. But Wenger could not match Victorinox’s tool function
On certain tools, like scissors and pliers.
There is a reason why Vic is on top of the mountain. Even the Japanese, who pride themselves on miniaturization never exceeded the firm from the land of cuckkoo clocks in both tool density and function.
Leatherman and Gerber can load up a larger volume with as many total tools, but they still can’t come close to my CYBERTOOL L for tool density in as small a volume.
Maybe Spyderco recognized its limitations and dropped out gracefully.
I wish they would have tried again.
-
According to Sal Glesser, they lost money on everyone of those that they sold. A few of us were trying to get him to do a sprint run of them, but he was veerrry reluctant. They're worth their weight in gold these days Sgt. They actually were designed by a rocket engineer!
-
But Wenger could not match Victorinox’s tool function

:facepalm:
I've always said the scissors are Wenger's one strength. I see them as better than the Vic scissors, if only because there's no flimsy little spring to break and replace. I like their sturdiness and function.

I should add though, my examples have a plain edge. Which according to my research, means they're from the first run Spyderco did.
Found them both locally (as within country borders; and yes, I'm in a small country ;) )

For awhile they were appearing fairly regularly on the Bay, but I haven't looked in awhile. I'd love to have one, but they're beyond my budget.
How does yours work Mech? Is it pretty handy?

I've always said the scissors are Wenger's one strength. I see them as better than the Vic scissors, if only because there's no flimsy little spring to break and replace. I like their sturdiness and function.
Re:scissors—Wenger’s scissors are less “breakable”, because they ingeniously found a way around the Vic’s thin spring, but none of my Wengers actually cut as well as my Vics. And I for one have never broken a spring on a Vic. But I have two Wengers where others let corrosion go unaddressed on the layer the scissor rides on and they have never worked normally again no matter how much vinegar and WD40 I tried. If I were willing to fully disassemble the knife, I could probably restore full function, but I lack the skill and want to to fully disassemble SAKs.

According to Sal Glesser, they lost money on everyone of those that they sold. A few of us were trying to get him to do a sprint run of them, but he was veerrry reluctant. They're worth their weight in gold these days Sgt. They actually were designed by a rocket engineer!
$250 asking it appears for a Spyderench.
I always wonder when successful businessmen say they lost money on every widget they sold on an unsuccessful product: is that a face saving way of saying we built a Turkey nobody wanted? Or were they really taking losses from the beginning to access a new market. Heart says latter. Head says former.
But some products are just too far ahead. Timing is everything in actually selling. Today, everyone has normalized the dual ended driver in a multitool, so the one in the Spyderrench looks very prophetic and right. In 1999, the whole effect may have been alien looking to persons and seemingly unnecessary to persons who had dedicated screw drivers coming out there ears and often had a Leatherman or SAK already.
You either have to do something totally new, or meet and exceed the existing standard in all phases, or cut price. New is always a big risk. Will persons get it? Beating the existing standard is often easy with one tool, but gets exponentially tougher with double digits of tools. How many better mouse traps are there, really? Cutting price, admitting failure, and shouting NEXT is hard on ego, but the best for the wallet.

The pliers are aren't all that ergonomic but workable.
Obviously, being so super blunt nose and short beaked it's not the tool to grab for when trying to get a wire from a drill hole or any fine work at that. But they're strong and grippy! So bending things and grasping on to something works good.
I haven't tried the wrench part so far to be honest; since I rarely come across nuts and bolts on the job.
The knife blade feels very much as Spyderco when opening. However, when you need use of the full edge it's easier to split the tool up.
All in all it's an engineering wonder, a conversation starter and something completely out off the box.
Maybe ahead of it's time, yes...
They're not in my budget online either.
I found mine on a local ad site for 30 and 60 euro respectively :pommel:

Thanks for that helpful explanation of the tool’s function and effective utility.
Narrow, pointy pliers and sockets seem to have won out over blunt nose pliers and crescents in multitools by Leatherman, Gerber and Victorinox, since this Spyderench was made.
Casting a wider net for multitools, some still promote crescents and blunt nose pliers as virtues.
What I would really like does not yet exist.
A multitool based on a battery powered, micro variable speed Dremel tool with my CYBERTOOL L tool set inside the handle and a voltmeter. Further down the path of the Internet of things, this tool would have a universal diagnostic port that I just plug to any malfunctioning device. It tells me what’s the problem. It offers me the option of part replacement, or some canned work arounds, or let’s me improvise.
If I were working in the factories or on the cars of my youth, I would prefer a Spyderench.
But in old age today, I barely lay a tool on my car, and work mostly on small trouble shooting around the house and electronics.
I so rarely need the pliers on a Leatherman that I went back to a SAK and now prefer it’s tiny but mighty little pliers for most fine work and keep a conventional plier and needle nose in my Waist pack tool kit for occasional heavy grasping. I rarely wear that waist pack. It lays on a table in my house or I carry it to the car for errands. 95% of the time, I fix things with my Cybertool.

Nice! !
I have the S30V version (which, otherwise is identical), and I really like it. Opens quickly, and the compression lock is easy for a southpaw to use.
This begs the question, I am beginning to wonder if mine's really S45VN and not S30V. There's nothing at all wrong with it, and I'm sure that a mismarked steel on the tang would be enough to make it "defective". I did buy it heavily discounted late 2020 during the seconds sale.

From what I’ve read the Para 3 was made in S30V before Spyderco made the switch to S45VN. I don’t think there is a huge difference in the two steels.
-
Nice Para 3
S30V, S35VN, S45VN oh boy Crucible. In the "real world" you may not notice a difference. The formulation that traded toughness for a small decrease in edge retention in S35VN over S30V to me was no big deal. Going to S45VN seems to be a better move in that the edge retention of S30V is retained with the same toughness and stain resistance of S35VN but......... really?
I'd still rate S30V very high. In my salty environment I have never had an issue. I can also say I've never had issued with edge retention for say to day usage. My S30V is Benchmande and Spyderco.
Data points suggest S45VN is an upgrade but if you're happy with your Para in S35VN :tu:.
As with all things YMMV.
https://knifesteelnerds.com/2019/11/01/crucible-s45vn-steel/
-
:iagree: My PM2 was S30V. I used it to open bags of ice melt in the snow and put it away wet. Never saw a spot of corrosion. I’m not really a steel snob. I’d be just as happy if I was sent a Para 3 in S30V.
-
https://youtu.be/RmKlfAlwQd0 😭
-
:rofl:
I'm with you guys. S30V is just fine as is S35VN and S45VN. However, I do like CPM 20CV for some reason since I had it used daily first time in the Fools Of April Buck 110 challenge and on hikes around the Irish West Coast frequently then.
I might imagine it... but it really holds the edge well and showed no single issue with corrosion.
...yeah...my subconscious is probably just trying to justify the purchase :D
Now since we picked up kayaking and moved down to the sea I'm curious about LC200N :facepalm:

I think LC200N would be a fantastic one to try in those conditions. I know H1 is most certainly at home there.
As for CPM20CV :tu: I dont believe you need any reason to justify it. If compared to S30V then you could very well see a difference in edge retention. I know data suggest they care close but in the real world things are a bit different. Its one heck of a steel and it was going after M390 so it had to be. It should also be great in corrosion resistance as it has a very high chromium content.

It's actually pretty maintenance free Stitch. It was designed for our Coast Guard rescue swimmers so everything is almost over engineered on it. H1 means it's basically rustproof. I clean it with dish detergent from time to time and that's about it. There's a spring kit for it from Spyderco but I haven't had the need yet. To be honest, my PM 2 sees more use most of the time.
-
Oh... that makes it even more interesting to me now. Thanks Barry :facepalm:
But yes, the PM series is great. I like the compression lock a lot too.

It's a solid bit of engineering. I have to say that I have a soft spot for the older Spyderco knives, like the Endura, Delica.

The Tenacious LW is my only Spyderco and I really enjoy carrying it. My next one would probably be a Persistence, but I have a Sencut Acumen that is very similar size wise that has a flipper tab in addition to a thumb hole, so I’m not sure I’d really be gaining anything. The Acumen is a great knife.

This one gets lots of pocket time since I have it.
The carbon fibre layer has a nice texture to it ( it's not covered on any clear paint/coating).
The handle and blade shape might look odd, but work great in use. It has a real good blade to handle ratio. It carries slim in the pocket. And it does have a compression lock.

I have a couple more but these are the ones I enjoy most. The Native was one of my early finds. I really liked carrying it since I always had a PE blade on me. It also helped me really appreciate serrations.

It was the first time I did that hike and will be doing it again for sure.
-
I have it since I joined MTO, but now it's my EDC.
What a knife!
I call it Endurandal.
Durandal was the legendary blade of Orlando (or Roland for Anglo-Saxons).

Only ever had em serrated.

It does a great job, I've never had a problem with the salts holding an edge, only issue with the h1 is it scratches easily

Don’t mind scratches at all. Just shows you actually use em.

Best action ever from a Spyderco. Perfectly centered but drops closed like a boss.

I bought one back in 2014 (off BF) for my PM2.
Can't remember if I got one he ordered or one of his early batches but either way it still looks and works great.

Yep what Zoid said.
So far it works like a champ and is made of titanium so should hold up great.

That one awlways looked strange to me. How is it in terms of OHO and in use? It's not very big, is it?
-
No OHO on that one Santi :pok:
And it's a slippie.
-
Nice ! :tu:
How do you like it ?
It's good. Initially I thought it would feel too small but, in use, it's great and well designed to fit in the hand. It only gets used for opening letters and the like, but it would work well with paracord and most things that an SAK blade would cut :tu:
-
Sounds good :hatsoff:
-

Just saw a review on it. It's minute! Don't get the hole in the blade. Better to make it on the front "dimples". Other than that, not a bad knife to EDC.

Never owned a Spyderco, but have wanted one since building the power plant in Golden Colorado back in the late 90's. Not sure why I never bought one back then. Anyway, I just got a gift card and was looking at a Tenacious and a Delica on Amazon. Then searched Tenacious here on MTO and this popped up. Had to compliment powernoodle on such a great collection!

Sharpen a knife? I thought you had to buy a new one when the old one went dull. That's why I have so many. Dang it! :dunno:
Works for me.
Neglected to post this here:
-
I own just one Spyderco:
(https://i.imgur.com/G3oIeTI.jpg)
Bought it in either '01 or '02 after a friend who got heavily into Spyderco knives convinced me to buy one.
Am slightly embarrassed to admit its lived in box all this time; I can't recall ever carrying it or using it.
-
Nice one ajcrean :2tu:
So is it going back into the drawer?

Probably, which seems a shame but there's not much you can do with knives like these in the UK. I am, however, a Scout Leader and my troop does a lot of hiking, pioneering and camping so I frequently travel with SAKs and Leathermans. Just haven't taken this one and a coupe of other lock blade knives out as those a legally a little dodgier, I think, and I'm always worried that grubby little Scout paws will get their hands on one in the split-second when my attention is elsewhere and inadvertently carve up one of their mates...

Regarding tools, you have to go with what works for you.
Regarding scouts getting their hands on knives, here we teach them beginning at about eight years old how to properly and safely handle, use, and care for knives. After that, they are free to carry their pocket knives to Scout meetings and events (but not school), though this privilege can be revoked if they are observed violating the rules they have been taught or otherwise behaving unsafely with their knives.
Also, if you carry the knife on your person, it is going to be difficult for anyone else to get it without your awareness…
-
Oh, for sure: we drill our Scouts in knife safety a number of times a year (had a session just last week) and most of them listen carefully and are eager for the opportunity and responsibility. But... There are always one or two of them that don't quite get with the programme and who you're loathe to trust with a sheath, let alone an actual knife... :whistle:

This vintage Clipit Dragonfly must be the oldest Spydie I still have in my rotation. The clip broke off a decade ago, and what used to be Spyderedge is now Plain Edge. Lost too many teeth cutting off rope and wire that was stuck in the lawn mower...
-
I only have 2. Good knives and all but I just can’t get that exited about them.
The Bug and Vallotton Sub-Hilt:
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240108/c2e0ade26268f70139977768250bf68d.jpg)
I like the Bug since it is very small. The Vallotton has certain gents folder charm with the ugly clip binned and it is solid but rather heavy.
I’ve seen pics of Damascus Delica, very nice pattern and have wondered about Civilian, so maybe I’ll pull the trigger on more Spydercos on the future

-
The Vallotton look great.
-
Another oldie still in rotation, Delica from the 90s in ATS-55. Carried in pocket without the clip a while, that's why the clip doesn't look worse than this. Still probably the best allround pocket knife, due to size/weight/operation.
-
The Delica is a great size. I bet there are many who still have their first Delicas. A classic that'll keep doing what it was intended for.
-
Yes! I can't retire my old Spydies. They are just too good. The only one I've had to give up was my Endura that bit more than it could chew... Little did I know I would be using the same knives for decades. After all, they felt like toys compared to the older generations of folders.
-
These two, however, are not in my rotation anymore. I never much cared for full Spyderedge, but I got these anyway. Back then I snatched every intetesting knife I came across. Hard to imagine that 25-30 years ago you couldn't just order stuff online, very little was ever imported, and you could only look at pictures in Tactical Knives and Black Belt Magazine :rofl: And there were stupid laws in place, prohibiting the sale of automatics, kukris, stilettos, machetes, bayonets and such, so the hunger for blades was there.
I did carry the Police for self defence, after all I lived in Africa, and came a bit too close to using it, too...
-
Here is one of my very early Spydercos. I do love Spyderco serrations especially since I'll always have a PE blade on me.

:2tu: Sydercos CPMS30V is terrific. I love how well the Native fits my hand. Its a very good knife and one I'd imagine Spyderco lovers have in their collection.
