Re: Official 2018 Catalog Discussion

Pre-Ordered Shabaria sprint. I've been begging for one of those for years, and it's FINALLY happening when I'm in a position to jump on it!

I asked for exactly this,and I cannot WAIT for them to start dropping!

Re: Irrational fear of getting a nicked Spyderco?

I've never gotten one, so I think it's pretty rare.

The only nicked spydercos I've had were after I used them.

Re: I Hate Japanese Spydies, Sorry

Can I weigh in with my subjective input? I've found Spyderco's VG-10 to perform at an equivalent level to 154CM or similar steels. I like it quite a lot, it sharpens very easily but holds an edge very well, and I've found it vastly superior to AUS-8. Just my experience with it, maybe I keep getting...

Re: Snap-It question.

Yeah, that was my concern. I suppose I could saw, sand, and polish, but I'd really rather not do that, you know?

I could just use it with, but I'm concerned the clip would get in the way of how I sharpen my serrated edges.

Re: I Hate Japanese Spydies, Sorry

I've never had an issue with any Japanese made spyderco.

My Oroborous is actually my favorite knife, it's perfection.

I had a question about the new snap-it, can the clip on it be removed or not?

Re: Ok, what did you see in the new catalogue that you need?

Aqua Salt, Szabohawk, Ronin2.

I want a Janisong too, so I need to sit on my hands and wait until Spyderco gets the capacity to make them in the U.S.

The wait is gonna SUUUUUUCK :(

Gonna be worth it, though.

Re: Self Healing Methods

I would disagree with the idea that simply converting to a particular religion will resolve the entire issue. While it MAY expand your social circle, it won't effect the underlying causes of your ailments. If you wish to do so, you may. Perhaps it will work, but I wouldn't rely on such things alone....

I would pay for GID, but I also added white and navy blue to my votes.

I'd like to see it in S35VN or CTS-XHP.

P.S. I have the Foliage Green G10 Jester in my pocket right now ;D

Sad there were no pictures of the Janisong, maybe next year it'll show up. Excited for Tatanka, Roc, Firefly, Frontier, Dog Tag, and Native 5 lightweight. Gonna be a good couple of years....... for me, not for my wallet.
