Re: Spyderco Models We Need In FULL SE
I like Serrations, but I don't use them a ton. If the weather is bad and I think I want to carry SE, I usually grab my S35VN Native 5 FRN. I think Spyderco has been good with making the Dragonfly a platform for carrying serrations. I have a couple of ideas. Mule teams in SE, so we can try new steels...

Re: AI art knows Spyderco
I would say that it would be interesting if a prototype was made out of what AI generated (with some human input).
I wonder where they pulled their info from. It's not like they're going to design something from scratch, it must be mostly a copy of something.

"Some might say" that a utility blade would be best for this type of stuff.

Re: Police 4 K390 SE Testing Log
Some people say that lock backs get some movement like that. I don't notice it on my most used lock backs, maybe they have it and maybe I don't pay attention or care. There are some lock back variations from other brands that seem to take care of that problem, but I think they're more difficult to u...

Re: Police 4 K390 SE Testing Log
I thought that the Police 3 somehow had a longer blade or edge. I'll have to compare one of my 3 vs 4.
This thread makes it look like the 3 might have a tiny bit more edge.

Re: if you could only own a 5 Spyderco knife collection:
Manix 2 lightweight S110V
Delica
Endura
Native 5
I'd probably rotate the last one to try new things.

Re: Question for Sal, Crew, or Forumites
I kind of thought that if someone received the knife and returned it, it was marked as a second. I think a CC could return a knife.
I'm not 100% sure on the process.

This is definitely a pro-learning place. Thanks for asking the question. I'm sure a lot of people can learn from the information in this thread. I don't own a Swayback, I'm glad to see the construction of it. I'm a little surprised with the size of the screw heads on the lock bar insert (and the bla...

That's a pretty nice looking knife. It will be nice to have a wharny with a deep carry clip.

Re: Decision time what to purchase, don’t say by both
I have both and like the normal sized one better. I think I have carried the XL a couple of times, but the normal one is one of my favorites.
Actually, I like the lightweight over the linered/G-10 version. How much cutting power you get with such little weight in your pocket is pretty amazing.

Re: S90V & Blue G-10
I don't think so. There was a Blue Manix 2 sprint before I think Bento even existed. There was also a Dodo and a Yojimbo 1. Not sure if those were sprints or what. As far as I know, any dealer could request any color and steel if it were available. It's not like Orange is reserved for Cutlery Shopp...

Re: Does anyone know why Byrd doesn't offer D2 steel?
Thanks for your thoughts. You're probably right that it isn't much better.
I know that some steel isn't used in China when the factory says they have a hard time working with the steel.

Does anyone know why Byrd doesn't offer D2 steel?
Other brands seem to offer D2 in China made knives. The brands and the market seem to think it's a step up from other steels.
I don't think I've ever seen it offered from Byrd. There is probably a reason for this. I hope someone can offer some insight.

Re: What are your top 5 favorite steels?
I carry S110V very often. It does good.
CTS-BD30P
CTS-XHP (Is XHP still popular? It cuts very good.)
CPM-M4
Whatever it is I have in my pocket.
