Re: Carrying an old favorite makes me want Spyderco to relaunch the Superleaf

I may take a look at the caribbean. I have manix 2 lw and a few pm2. The bushing and bronze on the PM2 make it have a much better action. I was going to shop for some bronze washers for it one of these days.

I think the shaman will be my next. I'm holding out for a nice sprint.

Carrying an old favorite makes me want Spyderco to relaunch the Superleaf

My 3rd (of too many to count) Spyderco is the superleaf. I had my wedding in Golden and picked up 5 for myself and groomsmen. It was the last 5 they had at the outlet if I recall. Anyway, I just felt motivated to post how much I love this knife. It's not perfect compared to other knives that have go...

Re: Scales for Para3 cruwear

First welcome to the forum, I went with a brown Micarta from Cuscadi on my Para3 Cruwear, the scales are smooth as glass on the flats but give some traction on the edges, this one slides in and out of the pocket great. https://s1.postimg.org/14yefp704v/20171001_163003.jpg I also went with the backs...

I started to look into that. Will sandpaper (and appropriate safety gear) be all I need?

Re: New work knife help?!?

Before I got to you "smaller" post I was thinking the shaman may be cool. Although, it may be a ways off still.

Scales for Para3 cruwear

In order to slow down on my collecting, I'm looking at customization for some of my knives. I really like my Para3 cruwear. I find that I'm carrying it quite a bit. I'm not a huge fan of the pocket shredding ability of the scales. I have other g10 knives (military, para 2, superleaf) for more intens...
