Is the blade stonewashed like the Maxamet models? Some clips I've watched of it looks like it, but the specs say it's satin

Got a Shaman, Para 3 Maxamet, and Manix 2 LW in Maxamet. I can't find anything wrong on the Shaman and Para 3, but the Manix very bad hitch when disengaging the lock and takes so much more effort than normal, kind of like lock stick, that I feel on an axis lock if I flick it open really hard. I've n...

I like liner locks and frame locks, they're my favourite after the axis lock. Back locks I can take or leave as long as they're in the middle, not back mounted like Bucks.

https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/category/seconds That’s so incredibly disappointing to see! :vomit Some prices are even better than the in person sale. Feels kind of deceptive. If you went in person, you'd have the pick of the best ones right? Aren't these the "worst of the worst" leftov...

Grabbed a Shaman from WMK for 166 with their perpetual 10 percent off code, my only buy so far

I would have bought both KW Militaries but they were released and sold out before I "got into knives", and they definitely would have been my favourite colour/steel combos :'( Managed to buy a Rex 45 one, and I really enjoyed it. It has slightly champfered edges compared to the completely ...

I've been using this for a month straight now, kicked the TRM atom out of my pocket. I'm surprised at how much I like it, the contoured scales are sooo much better than the boxy scales of the PM2, and the less pronounced hump right before the finger choil makes it way better for me than the Manix wh...

Bought one to try, never had a Manix 2 XL. What's 4V steel comparable to?

Their comments on instagram seem to imply there's a Military in this config coming too

Finally got mine. Interesting the Cruwear one has a slightly lighter green g10 than the 204p one. Either that, or my hand oils have darkened the G10 a ton, but I don't think so.

It's a lime green para 3 in 20cv

I've bought from them 3 times and haven't had anything seized yet, but they were all Spydercos. I did also purchase a Protech Malibu from them once but had a shipping forwarder do it cause I was pretty sure a buttons lock flipper would look like an "automatic" to a customs agent. Really ha...

Jeez stretch is $284.55, that means it'll probably be like $425 CAD in Canada before tax

Guess my current Manixes and Shaman will do

It's annoying on the Shaman, but it only took me 4 days of muscle memory to move my finger out of the way lol, not really a big deal.

I think the one thing I don't like is the PVD in the hole, makes my thumb "stick" too much to it, or maybe it's the area around the hole as I'm just blindly feeling for the hole with my thumb. The coating feels sandier and grippier than the DLC or cerakote that I've felt on Benchmades, but...

One main folder, and then one SAK usually a Pioneer X or just an Alox classic on my keys

Got mine north of the border, was always on the fence about getting a Shaman because it looked way too bulky and thick but this colour and steel combo made my decision easy this time. Was super stiff out of the box, but after 4 days of flipping it's definitely broken in now. And there's definitely t...

Got one, hopefully my order goes through. After not buying a new knife for almost a year, I splurged on the 204p shaman, this, and the 20cv knifecenter griptilian this week. Lots of 20cv coming my way

I actually like this colour, it's a classic electric guitar finish and also very popular in watches right now. I just hate coated blades lol. No doubt they'll come out with the uncoated version, then a DLC/Satin Para 3 model down the road within the next 2 years

Couldn't resist, was hoping for a re-release of the Knifeworks PM2 or a Military (although I do know they won't do that one again because it didn't sell well), so this will do as I don't have a Shaman yet. First new knife purchase in 8 months
