Spyderco Forums

Why were we not informed about this talk about a bomb shell that was never even hinted to in the slightest. I have to get one for my daughter and one for myself

Spyderco wouldn't get in any trouble its legal to make.

Micarta because it's elegant and functional and seems to get more grip when wet. Also love the cf either peel ply or polished both look nice

Caly 3.5 would be my choice especially in the cf zdp

For those of you wondering the detent ball is there to stop the leaf of the comp lock from rubbing on the blade. There is no hole in the blade for that bearing to sit in thus it does not aid in retention. I took one for the team but I don't recommend anyone else take this knife apart just stating th...

Trust me that detent doesn't do anything feel free to disassemble your Szabo and give it a shot . I even went as far as to assemble the knife without the spring the blade just flies open unless you tighten it up all the way and yes pockets that's there to keep it closed

if you take the spring off there is no back up retention the spring is all that holds it closed. Also the spring is a pain in the *** to get back in and get hooked back up to the blade. Don't take it apart trust me not fun. It is black G-10 as far as i can tell the gold line cf is just a veneer on t...

it's not long enough to be a flipper If they had made it protrude a little more it would have been a flipper.

this is the plate that works with the pin to keep the knife closed http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-23_09-29-13_450.jpg http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-23_09-32-00_136.jpg Heres the locking side http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11...

see that nice little threaded area where the bar passes through. This if for a tension screw so they can pull the spring back and install the blade in the closed position. If you don't have this special screw it's very difficult to put the blade back in. this is something you learn from taking the k...

Flash was a little too bright but you take what you can get http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-23_08-39-27_100.jpg Close up of the mechanism with the blade in http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-23_08-39-49_343.jpg This is the part you don't wanna do. DO NO...

WARNING WARNING WARNING!!!! DO NOT DISASSEMBLE YOUR SZABO FOLDER!!!!!
Pics on the way

just noticed on the cut out for the lock if you look at the pin that runs through the comp lock theres another liner thats been routed out and sunken into the scale. They definitely wanted this to be a strong knife.

I use my rock salt and M390 and the Chinese mule in the kitchen pretty often

I vote micarta it seems to grip better when wet.

This is my new edc been carrying it for a week now. It's not the best face shaver the edge is kinda thick. Feels great in the hand though especially if you have larger hands. I've always wanted a knife the size of the Millie with a comp lock. This is kinda my dream knife. The self close makes it har...

ok new pics in this one you can kinda see the pin that the blade catches to make the knife self close http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-10_21-33-51_665.jpg http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/VashHash/2012-11-10_21-34-16_973.jpg http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo24/Vash...

Szabo in S110V peel ply CF jeweled titanium liners and FFG no swedge. Also produce it in golden. I know the last part is kinda weird but this is my dream

Military. Go big or go home. I always hear that statement and thus this is my vote. It's also the spydie I own the most variations of

Right now my perfect folder is the Szabo. Call it what you will but I love the design and have always wanted a military with a comp lock. Unfortunately spyderco never made such a knife but the Szabo is as close as it's gonna get. The comp lock is one of my favorites as well its pretty much impossibl...
