Are all SE’s single sided bevel?

Are all SE’s a single sided bevel?

I’ve not taken to this profile other than on a few woodworking chisels.

I know some PE kitchen knives with single sided bevel exist as well and they have a tendency to drift when cutting.

Does a SE that is beveled each side make any sense? Well, why not!

Re: Which Delica 4, is the right Delica?

They all are - if the handle fits your hand, and the knife design fits with your intended uses. I think both knives mentioned are equally good and equally bad if not a fit for you. I’m a huge delica 4 fan! I like both the plain edge and the wharncliffe. Think the overall blade length is superb for t...

First Spyderco in 2023

What’s your first Spyderco in 2023? Picked up a super blue D4 the other day. My first Spyderco (and first knife) for 2023. Factory outlet had plenty of uniformed and non-uniformed customers when I dropped in during the lunch hour. Display cases were fairly well stocked compared to my last visit some...

I think the closest we got was a UKPK in Spy-27 in Blue G10 with Forum Knife written on the backspacer. I believe that was Sal's last suggestion.
I would be fully up for this.
Count me in!

Re: Forum Knife???

Maybe they could follow suit with HH and go with FK and date below vs engraving across the top of the blade. Color will need to be teal as we can’t even agree on what color teal is. However, in this case it will be the dark green teal and will be forever known as “forum teal” and reserved for forum ...

Re: Forum Knife???

You can call it anything you like but it is just another sprint run … some unique combination of model , steel, color, coating or no coating …. done as a one time thing and of limited production and low cost relative to base model. And we have all experienced how these have done over the years. My ....

Re: How Many Would Buy a Texas Size Spyderco Belt Buckle?

Might be interested in a modern nylon belt with refined minimalist metal buckle … think you guys know what I am talking about, may be referred to as tactical belt. The belts could be offered in various colors and the buckle in various finishes. This would be an everyday wear belt for myself and beca...

Re: UKPK Salt now in Magnacut!

Have no knives on my shortlist for 2023. Don’t much have the mindset for more material given today’s environment of most everything going up in price considerably along with more tax and additional fees. Planning to focus on essentials but somehow this jewel may change that. ☺️

Re: MSRP prices

Haven’t seen BBS thread here for a while, it used to be quite regular.

I’ve not done business with them for a couple years now as there is nothing they have that I have to have to justify the price bump. Otherwise, no issue with the seller and past purchases were smooth transactions.

Re: 2023 Spyderco Plans Or Projects

Different picture for me this year: I have no shortlist of knives I am interested in that are currently available. This relief from the knife material world actually feels welcome and calming. My knife interest last year grew more divided - likely to pick up another folder like a UKPK, D4, or E4 (so...
