Spyderco Forums

Anyway back on topic, I have a feeling this will work v well indeed for it's intended purpose. Great that Sal and co chose to re-release it for this sprint 😎 Gave the knife a good work out gutting and filleting some mackerel this morning. I do still marginally prefer my fixed blade fillet knife (Mo...

I thought the Waterway an excellent knife at exceptional value. I sold all other my fixed blades.

Happy birthday, mate!

I have a Vic Jetsetter, which is the Compact without a blade. It’s a stress free option on flights, international trains and urban venues, and better than nothing.

Except where I expect scanners, I also keep a Bantam in the zippered coin section of my wallet, however, which never gets checked.

Good review, thank you for posting!

I agree with you on most counts, but would point out that the shorter backspring on the UKPK actually makes it lighter than the Urban.

Definitely Gen X!

It’s interesting how the continued, deliberate propagation of division in our societies develops.

Happy birthday, James! Your posts here are very much appreciated!

Hello, and welcome to the forum!

Awww. Bad luck. I hope it reappears soon.

Good stuff. I look forward to seeing reports of it in use!

I don’t mind lanyard holes as long as they don’t add too much extra weight.

I’m very satisfied with the Spits m390 so have passed on the opportunity to acquire an Alien on a couple of times, now.

The general consensus is that it’s a slightly lighter action than the Pits, smaller and more pocketable, but that has been people comparing it to the non Spyderco version.

The Dragonfly is a beefed up Manbug, whereas the Lil Native is a shrunk Native ….

… so an enlarged lightweight keychain knife vs a miniature field knife.

A little less than that at Edgar Bros, the UK importer, and in stock.

As an aside, this is by far the best folder I’ve ever used for food prep.

Mine arrived today. I’ve been after a Catcherman for a long while, and I’m delighted. I’m no fisherman, but I live near the sea and do buy and prepare fresh fish, and it feels like it should be a great general food prep knife, too.

Now I’m just waiting for the Spyderco oyster knife

JD said full SE …

My Catcherman only arrived today, so will see how it goes in CE before commenting further. Very impressed out of the box, though.

Good review. Thank you for sharing.

Most of my kitchen knives appear to be ffg, apart from a single sided Global deba, and I’ve not noticed a problem to date with food binding. I’m certainly not a chef or expert on kitchen knives, but aren’t most kitchen knives ffg? Asking for a friend, ahem…

Happy birthday!

The world seems a very dangerous place again, for sure. The success of any part of that axis will embolden the others.

Milk in paper cartons is better. However, I buy Fernleaf powdered milk. It tastes just like bottled milk and dissolves in cold water. It is a New Zealand product. I understand that the same brand in the UK isn't nearly as good because UK laws mandate using only UK cow milk. The NZ cow milk is much ...
