Re: carbon fiber sprint/exclusive picture thread - feel free to share yours!

Please excuse the ZT, I'll take a picture of just the manix this evening. One of my two manix xl cf s90v, this one I polished. I still plan on polishing it up more, up to 4000 grit. This is 1500 grit for now and I like the look and feel much more than the peel ply but I'm afraid to polish my other p...

Re: The collaboration I want so bad

I just want more spyderco flippers, smooth flippers with 3.5"+ blades! I don't care who the designer is. How about that supposed manix flipper, that's what I'm waiting on.

Re: long awaited Mule 16 finished

Thanks guys, I'm very happy with how it turned out. My MT20 I had a local guy do turned out to be really poor work, the sheath was nice but the knife was gouged and dinged up everywhere and the scales aren't even close to symmetrical so im having the guy that did my CF mule fix the first one. And Jo...

long awaited Mule 16 finished

I sent this one to a knife maker that I've seen some really nice work from and although it took a little longer than expected, I couldn't be happier with it. XHP is my favorite all around steel and those that know me know I'm a CF geek so this one is perfect for me. Plus is a Golden made Mule! http:...

I'm just saying I'd be shocked if they didn't treat the lock face somehow on a $400+ knife

I'd buy a collab if it was a flipper for sure, something similar to, but not copying, the other Hinderer collabs out there based off the XM

Re: Nirvan lock

I think it'll be fine, Spyderco knows what they're doing, it's a high end offering, I don't think they'd skimp on the lock face.

Yup. Combo edge is almost useless (for me). Blah. Full serrations or none.

Re: Any strong feelings yea or nay about blue fluted Ti Millies?

Yep. It started out flame anodized, then moved to electrical, and finally ended up not anodized at all. Only the initial run came without the steel lockbar insert. The flame anodized had greater color variation (purples, blues, and greys) across a single knife but the colors were kind of subdued. T...

If it's priced well I'd snatch it up, you don't see them very often.

Re: Am I the only one that did not like...

Never tried a balance because it never looked like something I'd ever use. The jester on the other hand is one of the best Spydercos ever, in my opinion. I always has a manbug, never even tried a ladybug, but when I got a jester I loved it's size more than the manbug and now have 2, a jester se and ...

Re: Numbered spyderco price gaugers

OP, you do realize that you started a thread with a negative tone, so it's not a huge surprise that it has continued to be negative. I'd also wager that, seeing as how you're an active forum member, you're quite aware of how threads about selling knives for profit has been a cause of contention in ...
