Re: Para 3 LW poor scale grip vs D4

Para 3 LW grip is great, one of the best I have. Native 5 LW isn't bad either.

Re: FRN Take Over...

Now that Spyderco has mastered the "solid" feel in FRN, I like it more than G10.
I like the grip of FRN, but it is light, it makes a knife have good balance. Don't like a butt heavy knife. I had a Caly 3 once that just slipped out of my hand and into my leg. :(

Re: The Native 5 that was lost...

It's great for me. It is not hard to get screaming sharp and holds that for a decent amount of time. Then, touching it up is easy. EASY is a good description.
Now, there are others here that can give you a much better coverage on this.

The Native 5 that was lost...

is now found. :D I posted a while back of this horror and thought it may have been picked up by the zero turn and flung into oblivion. This was SAD day, because CRU WEAR is hard to get. Well I found it in a place I had looked before. Here is my beauty, Lightweight frame and MXG clip make this knife ...

Re: PM2 liner wear normal?

That looks bad. As, the liner is not heat treated and is worn out.

Green scales

I really like my DARK green scales on my Brouwer, what other Spyderco knives have this deep green color?
Now, i have a foliage green Urban, but that is too light in color.

Just liking my Para 3 LW

This week in my rotation, it's the Para3 LW that I swapped an M390 blade to it. I missed it, but I have other nice knives I must carry. Yes, I could carry it all the time. This knife is such a great companion, it's light, fits my hand just right, deploys so smoothly, it's just easy. The M390 is so g...

Re: Native 5 Cruwear

S90V ?? Isn't that hard to sharpen? I don't much like hard to sharpen. Cruwear is a pleasure to sharpen. :)
Although, my knowledge on this is quite limited. I do have S110V and Maxamet steels and don't care for the sharpening effort required. Yes, I have diamonds.

What about the Endela

How is the Endela selling?
When it was first announced, I thought about getting one, but so many others distracted me. :)
How do you like yours?

Re: My growing love for the Para3

Para 3 is the best knife for me.
Size
Handle Feel
Ease of lock - Compression
I paired a M390 blade with the Lightweight handle, this is it for me.

Re: MAPLE CHAP SHIPPING TO DEALERS WOO HOO

Very nice.
Great work on boring the wood, it's flawless. I've done several wood scales on folders and it's hard to get a clean hole with no raggedy edges. Taiwan right.

Question, Comp. lock

Due to my hand condition (senior), I need a compression lock and I WANT a new knife.
I like the looks of the Sage 5 LW, of course I have a lot of Sages, so not???
How is the Lil Native Compression lock in hand, it looks neat to me. Is it large enough? I have small hands.

Re: Would you be interested in "that" kind of Paramilitary 2 (different blade) ?

I like the blade shape on that frame. Of course, if you drop the hump, you must have a new name.
