Re: Spymyto is hot!

I got 1920 of 2000. My blade is slight off center and the flipper tab is crooked. It's not the end of the world but it triggers my OCD!

Re: You got your Ceramic Mule. How you gonna sharpen it?

Also, for giggles, I tried to see if I could use my hardest waterstones to do anything, maybe polish, or rid myself of some of the toothiness. As expected, absolutely not. Don't even bother. I got a nice mirror polish from my Shapton Kuromaku 2k. It seemed to get a lot of the micro-chipping out as ...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

Hi All, I posted this on Bladeforums, Spyderco sub-forum. I thought to share here, as there is more Mule activity here; I'm a bit surprised that most of the comments concerning the HIC Mule is comparing sharpness, that it doesn't get as sharp as steel. I was hoping that most would see this as a new...

Well... my knife as received won't cut through construction paper so I'll see what I can do!

Can anyone tell me if the HIC-specific sheath works with standard mules? Thanks.

Re: You got your Ceramic Mule. How you gonna sharpen it?

I got mine today. It's so dull that it won't cut through construction paper. If the factory can't send me a usable edge, I'm not going to waste my time and diamonds on creating one with soklme random exotic material. I'm just weirded out that they would see that edge and say "yes - we will defi...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

I received my mule today and it's simply not sharp. If Spyderco can't send them sharp from the factory, I don't want to even bother trying with my sharpening setup. Disappointed.

Re: Are We Witnessing The Death Knell of K390 In Production Folders?

I would like to try k390. But since its only made in frn models I really do not want to spend my money on it. If they would (depending on the model) put it in a more expensive g10 version i would find it so attractive compared to now. I feel I really am struggling with spyderco’s tactic’s as of lat...
