I read somewhere that the pandemic has produced a lot of new knife and edc people. They are buying up all these awesome knives with all their stimulus $$. Its not just spyderco, try to find a new Hinderer.....we have more competition out there now.
Wish we got stimulus money :(

Re: How many is too many?

My issue is I can't put the para 3 and para 2 down so I have to force myself to carry my other knives now. I had plans to buy at least 3 more spydies but I can't justify it 😔

Try tightening the body screws on the knives with blade play instead of the pivot.
I tried everything. The tolerances just arnt there.

Re: All my spydies have arrived. Initial thoughts thread

Very nice and versatile collection and also write up! Thanks for sharing :) Only minor empty spot: SERRATED edge;) Spyderco does those so well, especially in newer ffg models. Imho a better performer than PE in almost any task. Perhaps you'd like to try for yourself with your next purchase. Other t...

All my spydies have arrived. Initial thoughts thread

Finally received all 6 of my spydies. This review is my initial thoughts as I haven't gotten to use any of them much or even at all. Native Chief CF s90v: Love the length of the blade and overall construction. Very easy to take apart and clean. Big knife but carries very well in pocket. Solid lock u...

Re: I'm having an issue with US made Spydies

Why are you taking them apart? There is a warranty process in place. I prefer Spyderco keep doing what they are doing, like securing the product at the factory so I don't have to. The idea that we need to disassemble them later on and tinker with them is part of the overall, weird obsession over wh...

Re: Blade play doesn‘t adjust (PM2]

How much blade play we talking? If you only feel it when you aggressively try moving the blade back and forth then don't worry about it but if you can feel the blade move without much force then send it to spyderco.

I'd just send it in to spyderco for warranty work.

Re: Paramilitary 2 in cpm20cv question

Sad to say that the only M390-ish PM2 I have carried regularly is the translucent red M390 (M390 and 204P are my current favorite stainless steels, pending release of MagnaCut), my 20CV and 204P variants have only had a couple outings each and while I've been impressed with my (extensively carried)...

Re: Paramilitary 2 in cpm20cv question

Oh by the way op, my first knife that sent me down this rabbit hole was a pm2 s30v. It is definitely a must have in any collection. I am patiently waiting for the new cruwear micarta to drop! Its standard production model as I understand so it will be plentiful. I'm not new to knives though lol. Ju...

Re: Paramilitary 2 in cpm20cv question

You should learn about and enjoy the handful of models you've already hauled in the past week before making more purchases. Get some pocket time, some real use, and it will help you learn what may work and not work for you. Rick, this is sage advice. That said, it's not your money, nor my money at ...

I'm seriously considering it.

Thank you.
