Re: TSA Found Out What Futility Is

Was there a knife hidden in the jacket or are they just hunting for nothing?

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!

Awesome pictures guys! How do you get the photo to come in without a border and at such high resolution? I feel like my picture looks much more blurry than all of yours. Yours are clear as a scroll through, but mine only looks hi-res when I open it? Thoughts? I selected “large” instead of original s...

Just another manix monday

Edited to add that this is inside a 151 year old lighthouse in the outerbanks. I thought the lighthouse was pretty cool so I snapped a pic.

Also, lets keep the manix ball (bearing) rolling!

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

GB2 in Willie’s Corner (photo from last night, still carrying today.) IMG_7259.jpeg just got the GB2 off the reddit swap yesterday. I should have tried this knife a loooong time ago. Really digging it. Wouldnt mind a stainless sprint (more stainless than cruwear) like S45VN, Spy27, Magnacut, 20CV et...

Re: 3D printed Native 5 Lightweight scales

I think you misunderstood. That style of printing is known as FDM. It’s the common 3d printing technology for thermoplastics. The surface quality is not good relative to injection molding, CNC machining, and resin (SLA) printers. I see, yes I misunderstood. I don’t know that much about 3D printing....

Re: 3D printed Native 5 Lightweight scales

I'm all for 3D printing and make a lot of things for myself and others but not sure knife scales are something I really want. Certainly not using an FDM printer. With a resin printer you can at least print with enough detail that it looks well finished. You can even print things that can’t be injec...

Is there a STL file available for these?
You could contact Brody. His Instagram is @hipolydesigns.

But he is trying to start selling these so I don’t know that he would want to hand out an STL files that took months to design.

Re: 3D printed Native 5 Lightweight scales

Here is a couple of videos showing how smooth the action is with these. Even compression lock style flick closing is easy. I also like how the texture glimmers in sunlight. It’s subtle but nice.

3D printed Native 5 Lightweight scales

I have been carrying and testing a couple versions of 3D printed scales for the native 5 lightweight these past few weeks and I thought some of you might be interested in it, especially since it is still the only Spyderco in magnacut out there.
