Which spyderco is in the mail?
There's a couple S90V Yo 2's in the mail for me somewhere....in some form or another...be it materials being mailed TO Spyderco, or perhaps completed knives being mailed from Spyderco to KW. They're in the mail one way or another, but not necessarily in the mail TO me
All SE all the time since 2017

This is the first. I used to have Caly3 CF/ZDP, but never warm-up to that blade. I sold it just couple month ago. But recently I became curious about ZDP and sharpening of this steel. Caly3.5 became obvious choice, so I bought used on e-bay. Just received. Guess what, the seller sent me Black blades partially serrated BM Adamas instead :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:. The knife is a monster. The box was heavy and I was thinking what is going on until I opened it. I hope to resolve this. He has fairly good rating 99+% Life is full of surprises. :)xceptnl wrote:Is that your first 3.5 ZDP Roman or is this a pre-need replacement?

:eek: :eek: :eek: I just hope your Caly 3.5 isn't in the hands of some bad man and being tortured... LOL. Hopefully it gets resolved soon. I love my 3.5 ZDP and perhaps will carry it tomorrow to honor your extended wait.bh49 wrote:This is the first. I used to have Caly3 CF/ZDP, but never warm-up to that blade.

Manix2 Cruwear inbound. I tried very hard to hold off but I love my Cruwear Military and don't own a manix2 yet so here goes. I always said i was gonna wait for a sprint so I could get the skeletonized liners. :-)

I'm waiting at the border to pick up my S35VN PM2. Waiting at the border feels longer when there is a Spyderco waiting for you on the other side.

That's exciting LC, I just wait ravenously staring out the window for the white and blue mail truck like a slobbering Cujo!
Drool levels are at max output: tomorrow's mail brings a Worker and the holiest of holies (sorry, no offense to the religious folks) --- the CF S110V Native 5. I may need an IV to recover the fluid loss!

That makes for a pretty awesome new knife day Radioactive! Pics when you get a chance.
Well, it was a 12 hour trip today. A really long wait at the border and then we decided to drive to Seattle to check out the zoo. I picked up my package as soon as I got across but didn't have much time to look it over as we needed to get back on the road. It was kind of weird because it was one of the first Spydies I've received with finger prints on the blade. But the weirder part was the green stuff on the bevel. I was able to pick it off with my finger, no biggie. The edge needed a touch up so when I got in I touched it up with the sharpmaker. It is super sharp now. I really like the brown. Anyway, off to bed.

Right. :)xceptnl wrote:We can't always have perfect taste (re: your choice of jester color :D )
Still waiting for my Caly3.5 ZDP. May be this will sounds crazy, but I cannot wait to sharpen it. Just curiosity.

I think you'll like this one, Roman. A real super steel in a real little big knife... or big little knife :confused: Very discrete carry, with a blade longer than the Manix, and significantly longer reach when both are gripped behind the choil. But you already have 3.5's, just not with ZDP.bh49 wrote:Right. :)
