Re: Best spyderco sharpener for serrated knives

You're right, most all the info here involves the Sharpmaker, but I'd imagine it applies to the others as well. Start with the sticky thread titled something like "SE performance is more than just teeth", or something close to that. sal said something about a difference in opinion on the w...

Re: The Magnacut Paramilitary 2

I would think the shallow carry MXG clip from the other thread would work. I wouldn't be thrilled with paying that much for a clip for a new knife though. I know many do it, but I've used stock clips so far.

Re: Best spyderco sharpener for serrated knives

Hmm, they began with sharpeners, but are likely now more commonly associated with knives. The dvd does have a section dedicated to serrations. There is a lot more information on sharpening SE here though, if you want to do down that rabbit hole.

Re: The Magnacut Paramilitary 2

I love PM2's, and I'm sure I'd also love your great new black one. I don't love the pocket clip misses. My jeans get shredded enough already.

It would be great. Most members use the image hosting sites, but I don't have any images that important to post.

Images from a Samsung also need to be resized. It's hard to get mine small enough. Oh well.

This is going to be GREAT for mobile phone users who might not have image editing tools at their fingert...

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

Lightening the tension on the clip, just slightly, will help. All is not lost. This is still a great design, and knife.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

I'm surprised it happened, but I think you could just bend the clip out a little.

I'm sure the Lil Native is a nice knife, but the Dragonfly is legendary. Everyone should at least try one.
RustyIron, the Chaparral is a back lock.

Re: Seki City back lock quality in 2022?

I recently purchased a new Pacific Salt H2 SE. It's perfect. Lock up, centering, edge, all perfect. I'm still confident in back lock Seki Spydies.

Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

Well, sadly, zhyla is right about the clip. It grabs and bunches at your pocket, because the clip should be longer, and the pivot is way too tight to even slow roll. The pivot is an easier fix, and the clip could be bent and it might help, but I'm not sure if I should. The blade and ergos are incred...
