Re: What do you se people think about crks serrations?

Lol! I’m a little surprised by the type of reaction this got. But, then again, I’m not big into serrations myself so I don’t really know what to look for. I guess that explains why crk is not currently producing any serrated folders.

Re: Do we really need a finger choil ?

Screen Shot 2022-08-23 at 1.49.43 PM.jpg Cutting edge right up to your grip, no choil, no sharp opening hole, no clip screw holes, no funky serrations, no show stopping little tabs of titanium, no "out there" designs, no higher than expected cost. Did I solve all of this months complaints...

Re: Do we really need a finger choil ?

Sal and Eric like finger choils. If you are someone who does not then spyderco may not be the brand for you. As someone previously mentioned, spyderco makes plenty of knives that have finger choils and without. There are so many designs that it just seems silly to me to complain about a feature that...

I think “bad quality” is inaccurate. Spyderco focuses on function. How does it function?

If you want CRK-level fit and finish, be prepared to pay CRK prices.
Maybe CRK isn't the best at this sort of thing either…

Re: Would you buy Spyderco branded torx hand tools?

I have all the bit kits I’ll ever need, but what I struggle to find is “refills”, i.e. packs of one ore more single size bits in sizes under T10. Whoever would partner with a reputable maker (Wiha, Wera etc) to make such bits more available, I would support. You can buy separate bits in whatever qu...

Re: The Completely Unnecessary Military Appreciation Thread!

I feel it necessary to express my appreciation for the fact that they even offer this in a dedicated left handed configuration. Hoping for a lefty shaman :winking-tongue :usflag

ISO custom scales for Left Handed Military

Anyone know of someone that I can commission to make me custom scales for the left handed military?

US based is preferred but beggars can’t be choosers.

Re: S45VN Shaman

It seems to me that s45vn would make more sense in the shaman than s30v with s45 being allegedly tougher than s30v. But even then the difference in performance would be minute.

Re: Pm2 lefty.

What i would recommend and what I have done is get in touch with Steve at Bladeswelove.com and order a left handed pm2 ultra. He takes a normal pm2 and installs a button so it’s basically a button compression lock.

Thanks for pointing out the native. I’m not sure how I missed that. I guess it is unique to the seki city line of knives.

Re: Stretch XL Observations

Here are my observations: The fit and finish on mine is comparable to the others that have been shared here. One interesting design choice on this knife that is unique to this model is that the lock bar is thicker than the blade stock. Because of this, your thumb has more surface area to contact whe...

I would buy a VG 10 knife in 3022. I don’t believe in steals becoming obsolete. If they work, they work.
