Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I'm disappointed that people put so much emphasis on something that is irrelevant to the performance of the knife. I've bought $400 Sukenari's chef knives that didn't have picture perfect lamination lines, it never even crossed my mind that it was an issue. I went to the stone and sharpened and enj...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I just don't understand all the vitriol. If you aren't happy send it back. If a large number of people aren't happy and they get sent back, Spyderco will get the message loud and clear and look into what went wrong. Sure, if it is sold out and you can't get a replacement that's a bummer, but it has...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I agree it's disappointing that it made it through QC but stuff happens that's why you contacted Spyderco. I'm surprised that they didn't see it as a problem from W&R standpoint yet Sal says it's not acceptable. I guess they need to talk to the W&R staff about what is acceptable or not. She...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
This is my edc today. One side the lines follow the shape of the blade and the other side just goes straight. Weird stuff but I like this little knife a lot. It did bother me at first but I got over it pretty quick. My Super blue stretch was pretty symmetrical. http://i.imgur.com/qTOFKXk.jpg http:/...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
Na, I’m done posting. I’ve read other threads and posts for years on here. People get blasted for being critical even if it’s respectful. I explained I called Spyderco FIRST before even posting and the customer service person did not seem to care. I’m more interested if this is an issue or if I was ...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
Hi Trackstar, We recognize it is an issue, and frankly should have been noticed before you received it. We are currently going through the entire run. But in the end, the bottom line is that if you are not happy with it, you should either send it back for a refund or send it to us for a credit. The...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I guess I don’t consider this a QC issue. Call me crazy. How many millimeters from the edge are you comfortable with? One side I have TONS of room. The other side......a few millimeters. Even the Spyderco customer service person said it shouldn’t be close to the edge. So I’m confused on what is acc...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
Honestly neither of those are as bad as your description made me expect. I'd surely keep that. The endura is horrible on the one side fine on the other. It’s a few millimeters from the edge. The other side is fine. Are we looking st the same photo? The Wharncliffe is tolerable but still stinks one ...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
On one hand it won't make a bit of difference in use, other than being far more corrosion resistant on that side, but on the other hand this sort of inconsistency bothers me on a very deep level so I just flat out don't buy laminate blades. This will probably be my last laminate blade. I bought thi...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
Bought a Fallkniven with bad lamination lines. Hasn't affected performance in any way. I would take it up with Spyderco and let then take a look at it. Know it's frustrating when you spend good money, you want it to be perfect. But they cant really give you an answer over the phone until they see i...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I mean yeah, there should be a good bit of edge steel exposed for the entire length of the edge. But overall unevenness should be expected and welcomed given what we're dealing with here. When you consider the thickness of the layers and the angles at which they are ground, and then consider the pr...

Re: Very DISAPPOINTED w/ laminated steel sprint runs
I just can’t believe Spyderco allows these to be released. The lines are HORRIBLE and uneven. And their customer service didn’t really seem to care much. Just said send them in and we will look and potentially refund you. I look on eBay and the trading posts on FB and never have seen one uniformed ...
