Re: Dyad II or New Concept Double Blade Folder?
Designed for the hand not the eye ( I'm sure I got that wrong as a quote , but the idea is the same ) was an ethos that was touted by Spyderco in days gone by . I'm not being nasty or looking for an arguement , but the Dyad is the most unergonimic Spyderco that I've ever owned , used and held . I lo...

Re: Dyad II or New Concept Double Blade Folder?
The Dyad is a conundrum. The first Spyderco I ever bought was a Grey Dyad Sprint . It was to big to heavy and its ergonomics were horrible , I soon sold it and Im just happy I persisted with he Spyderco brand because everything else I have purchased has been perfect . Then a year or two ago I cam ac...

Re: How did ZDP189 go from a stainless steel to carbon steel?

I have an old Caly 3.5 that I bought secondhand and it arrived with a slight patina to the ZDP . Over a period of time the patina escalated to a heavy patina which helped...

Re: zdp-189 Delica...any good?
I rate the ZDP Delica highly . The fact that you can get it as a production run and not a sprint is a great move on Spydercos behalf in my opinion . I carried a ZDP Delica exclusively for many months before venturing into the world of alternative Delica steels ( superblue , hap40 ) In all honesty th...

Re: FRN Worker ?
I've been contemplating this idea ( straight from the horses mouth ) that the Worker concept is outdated and run its race . After much contemplation I think that the problem with the most recent incarnations of the Worker is that it forgot who it was and where it was from . Forget G10 and all the be...

Re: Aussies vs Kiwis: The discussion continues!
I spent the first 35 years as a Kiwi and the last 14 as an Aussie . I look at the best aspects of both lands and quickly disregard the rest . Good luck truly surviving of the land in any country in the world . If I was forced to I would base myself in a coastal setting not inland because the sea can...
