No, I didn't. Wish I did though. I could probably sell a hundred of em this weekend to other archery coaches and kids. Everyone keeps asking me where I got mine and want one for themselves. I have never had a quality issue with mine other than the daggum lighter is sometimes hard to get out once it ...

Why is this product discontinued? I have personally bought like 4 of these. Two for myself and two more for gifts. I teach agriculture and I'm also an archery coach. This knife is a great tool that I keep in my bow toolbox to use when I'm cutting off old nock point indicators and I use the lighter t...

Not trying to hurt anyone's feelings but that looks like some of those keychain knives they sell on "The Knife Show" for 6 bucks for like 150 knives.

Is this really a spyderco?

I just found this. Nothing about it at all is screaming spyderco to me but they are selling it as a "spyderco knife." It just don't look legit.

Dude, really? A rat? *shakes head*... I think it is commendable on your part for being able to take to a "rat". I couldn't do it myself.

You know, I think I remember seeing a pic of the anniversary delica now. I am really interested in knowing a bit more about the steel. I'm guessing (please correct me if I'm wrong) that damascus refers more to a process of manufacturing. Wondering if there are different grades or quality. I picked ...

Got my Ebay order in today.

That Endura4 that I won for 34.00 came in today. It is my first Endura. I must say that I was VERY PLEASED. I must say though, this friggin knife is HUGE compared to the Delicas I had been carrying :eek: . I openned that sucker up and it looked like a kitchen knife it was so big. I know it probably ...

Ok, I went to the website and looked and those are definitely NOT the models I was referring to. Apparantly the ones I was in reference to were made by another company or either their quality has just drastically increased cause the older swiss army knives I've had were basically nothing more than a...

I don't smoke either. Well not very often, I do occasionally fire up a cigar. I do however, think that this would be a good idea and since I carry a bic in my pocket daily cause just like a blade, you never know when you may need a flame. It would be nice to have a zippo spydie so I wouldn't have to...

swiss army knife and yes, you definately need one (or two, or three) Every swiss army knife I've ever owned was like the wal-mart 5 dollar version that someone gave me for a gift. Never amounted to much and never could get them to hold an edge. What types do you guys use cause I know that for ya'll...

Yeah, you guys are telling me exactly what I suspected. I thought it may have just been a psychological thing. Here is a pic of what I bought. I don't know how to tell if it is a E3 or E4. I thought all the enduras were the same unless you got one with a wave or a different blade edge or different c...

I have never gotten the sharpening down right for a spyderedge or combo edge. Is the belt sander the secret? All I know is once the factory edge is gone and I sharpen it I can never get it like it needs to be.

Mine would definitely be Delica, but that is the only spydie model I've ever owned so I'm not sure if I would like another one better or not. I just don't see how a knife could be better than the Delica. Unfortunately, I broke the blades in both my D's and have not been able to find a replacement lo...

Is there a difference?

I'm new to the spydie forums here and have a question. I have been trying to replace two delicas that I have carried for about 10 years and have managed to break the tips off the blades :mad: ... Anyway, we do not have a spydie dealer around in this part of the country so I started to shop on EBAY. ...
