Just want to show you MarcinS newest (custom) blade shape update on his Spyderco Techno design...

This might be a small suggestion to Sal & Eric ;) :spyder: :D

And just BTW, this custom model was initially named 'Mouse' when introduced couple of years ago... hence the cute engraving:

By the time I get enough money together for a techno you're saying I might have a few different ones to choose from? Cool! Still waiting on that Swayback

As a big fan of the Techno, I'd very much support this design. :) I'd also like to see the Swayback too.

TXHX Much PiterM!


Your fantastic pics always bring very good news. :)

This new Sheepsfoot version of the Techno looks prety nice and neat. :cool:

It'd truly make an awesome couple with the current Drop Point version.

And the engraved 'Mysz' is a gorgeous detail.

Plain & Simple: a true HomeRun in my book. :D

This is not a mod but a custom by the designer of the Techno. ;)
Don't know where to contact Marcin Slysz but I presume the internet will. (tends to know more than me)

Edit: it wasn't very easy to find things on the internet either but apparently contact should go through USN forum:

Question regarding the Techno and left-handed users... It is possible to close the blade with your left hand using the left pointer finger to disengage the locking mechanism? If so, is that comfortable over time, or awkward/uncomfortable?

I'm right handed, but I've read/seen like a hundred reviews made by left handed users saying the only down side of the Techno is that it isn't left handed friendly. :rolleyes:

Thanks for responding... There are a lot of knifes out there that I won't entertain owning because they aren't ambidextrous (lefty-friendly)...
