Re: Spymyto is hot!
What about the blade geometry made it a frustrating experience? The blade thickness? I'm wondering too. Something's wrong if it's peeling cardboard like that. We had a recliner delivered the other day and it came in two large boxes made of really thick card board. I used a SPY27 Manix 2 LW and K390...

Re: Why is the Kapara so overlooked ?
I added a ceramic detent ball and opened up the detent hole a little on my existing Sage 5. Now the action rivals my Sage 5 LW. Actually, I think it's even better than my S5LW. It totally transformed the Sage 5 for me. I've done the same to my Kapara, Sliverax, and Mantra Thanks for the suggestion,...

Re: Why is the Kapara so overlooked ?
For me it is its compression lock. Not only I prefer other locks or even no lock to a compression lock, but IME Taichung compression locks are simply unusable, ie pressing the tab combined with a wrist action won't close the blade. This was the case with the Sage which after failing to break it in ...

Re: Why is the Kapara so overlooked ?
This thread reminded me that the Kapara is one of my favorite Spyderco collaboration models. It's now in my pocket for the day I don't have an issue with closing it the traditional compression lock way. But for those who do try closing it like a mid-lock. Use your thumb to move the lock bar over and...

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
SpyMyto. IMG_5794.jpeg Nice! I was going to buy one but now I'm not so sure. I think I'd rather have the Lionsteel Skinny Integral. I was about to pull the trigger on one of those when I came to my senses. I need to reduce my knife count not add to it I just realized one of my sisters lives in the ...

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
For me, the most significant difference between the two is the blade shape. I understand on picture they look very similar, but Sage (at least the one I got) is pretty wide near the tip, while Manix tapers down more aggressively. Maybe this can be quantified in some way (i.e. width to length ratio ...

Re: Should I buy a Sage 5 lw or Paramilitary 2 as my first Spyderco?
They're both fine knives and you really can't go wrong with either. As far as which one to buy, only you can know which one will be better for you. If I had to pick one for general EDC it would be the Sage 5

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
I'm still hoping the Sage6 will be a button lock or CBBL, as long as it doesn't require expanding the body of the knife like the Sage3. In the meantime I'll continue to lobby for a Sage2 reboot like the Sage1 got :) Hi Abbazaba, You keep on nagging. I'll keep on watching. If we did another run, we'...

Re: Sage series collection - What's the next Sage?
For the me the "Axis" lock was/is a Benchmade thing. I like it but Since I already have several Benchmade models with it I'm not sure I'm interested in someone else's version. Same if someone else made a compression lock knife. Not interested. Looking forward to seeing what lock the next S...

Re: Is this legit? Amazon Spyderco store
This has come up awhile back. I believe TazKristi chimed in. It's not directly affiliated with Spyderco and I honestly don't remember if they're an official dealer but they've been on Amazon for at least a few years now. If they're not a Spyderco dealer then someone connected to them likely is. Wher...

Re: Native Scout?
Having all these different sizes within a model family is kind of silly but that I don't really see why people get all bent out of shape when people ask for another tweener size. I'd rather see new models come out instead of the same ol' thing but that's just me. If someone wants a 3.5" Native ...
