Spyderco Forums

As I get older, I seem to prefer larger blades. I thought it was supposed to go the other way with "gentleman" in the description. I like my new Military as much as my ParaM 2 . I like my Caly 3.5 better than the Caly 3 that I gifted to my friend. I like my Native 5, but it justs seems sma...

Manix 2 is rated in my top 5-6.

Me likes big knives.

Added the Caly 3.5 and Native 5 which brings me to 8.

I could easily own just 4.

I thought my GB was sharp, but the Manix 2 is scary sharp out of the box.

I'm 40 days away from retirement and thought I would add 2 Spyderco's as a gift from me before a fixed income sets in. They arrived today. Paramilitary 2- CPM S90V, ser# 13* Manix 2- CPM M4, ser# 1* These will go nicely with my current: Sage 2, Gayle Bradley and Caly 3. These 5 will serve me well to...

Do you whittle or carve?

I whittle. I have a Helvie with two Goodman knives being built.

I am also having a Sugar Creek whittler and an Adventuresworn carver

if you are familiar with those bushcraft customs.

I edc'd the Gayle Bradley today. What a knife.

:D :D You're gonna really like the Sage 2 I was down to about 6 Spyderco knives. I have been focusing on custom fixed blades and whittling knives. The Sage 2 has an excellent feel and I might be gifting my Caly 3 because of it. The Gayle Bradley locks up great, but I knew it was going to be a winner.

Saturday morning
Gun & Knife show in town
Entry fee: Two for $5 during 1st hour.

Picked up a Case Sodbuster for a friend.

Almost made it out the door

Bought a Sage 2 and a Gayle Bradley M4

Both are scary sharp

So much for downsizing.

Anyone have a Spyderco saw? (Aus-6, 5" blade)

I found a used one for $35.

Well, I got a little tired of watching my hometown college football team get beat so I took out my modicum of angst on my new Para Military that I bought at the gun show a few weeks ago. I disassembled :eek: , cleaned, oiled and reassembled it. The blade is much straighter. The detent is still very ...

My spare knife in the office desk drawer is a Ladybug. I have had it a long time.

Other guys laugh at it. They don't laugh at the Caly 3.

The Native is like a terrier, a lot there for the size.

I am happy with the Para with Digi-Camo and I would rather get the Military next.

I have nothing against the the P2.

Good idea. Now I have an excuse to buy another one,

even though I already keep the ParaMil behind the

truck passenger seat. :rolleyes:

I am getting one of these, a D4 for Christmas in the same British Racing Green

and a Delica 4 ffg in blue. I ordered them myself and the blue Strrrrrretch.

I ordered the Stretch in the blue that was discontinued and my wife took it away to wrap it up

for Christmas. She could have just wrapped the empty box.

I am looking at my current group of Spyderco knives and I am going to rate the Caly 3 as a 9.675 on the Jefe scale.

It just does so many things right.

I rate ergonomics nearly as high as the blade in determining a great knife and it has to be a blade that I use.

The money we spend for knives would only be wasted on

food, clothing, shelter and milk for babies.

Run like the wind before assimilation is complete.

While reading another blade forum (hint) , I noticed a Spyderco sub-forum and many of you are aware of an ongoing "favorite 3 Spyderco's" thread. The Military and the Para-Military seem to be highly thought of. I bought the Para with Digicamo last week and my only beef is the tip down carr...
