Re: Shout Out To Collin (SFO)
If I lived in CO, I'd try to get a job working for Spyderco. I agree. Great company.

Re: RONIN 2 Sprint Run ???
I will add that I simply could not wait for a decision and went and bought another Yojimbo 2 in 20CV, but the truth of the matter is if you are being attacked, a fixed blade knife is always better than a folder. I was attacked by 4 to 5 guys once and I managed to get a folder open, but in reality an...

Re: RONIN 2 Sprint Run ???
I'm 100% behind the idea!SAF-1 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 04, 2018 12:33 pmHello All, I’m new to this forum but not to knives. As part of my EDC, I carry a Ronin2 IWB Edge forward and love the Knife. I was wondering what the possibilities of doing a Sprint Run in an upgraded Steel were?? Maybe M390 or 20CV ?? Thank you for your time.

Re: The Memes Will Continue Until Maxamet Returns
I was just going through the 7 EDC folding knives on my desk. Flipping them all with both hands to make sure everything is copacetic. I get to the Native 5 in Maxamet, put it in to my right hand and try a thumb flip. Ohhhhh sheet! The pad on my thumb was vaporized like a military laser had hit it. W...

Re: Sprint Runs and the Abysmal Aftermarket.
As I've noted before I don't get in to many Sprint Runs. If I don't have 2 to 4 weeks to put some cash together they're gone before I can do anything abt it. I have a list of knives that I buy from, and when the 3rd of the month rolls around, I buy a few. Beyond that I cannot get in on anything, and...

Re: Maxamet and the future
But Rex 45 is the closest to Maxamet hardness Spyderco has come so far. https://photos.smugmug.com/Picture-a-Week/2018/08272018/i-62fkMNw/0/5ac9ecf9/L/Image1-L.jpg Anyways, all this geek stuff aside, PM2 Rex 45 and Maxamet "feel" the same to me. Cool to have knives that can cut steel cabl...

Re: Sal: More fixed blades with 3-4 inch blades and Kraton and FRN handles?
I like the idea but I'd prefer an M390 plain edge for the knife steel. 2.5 (Chicago laws) to 3 (Illinois laws) inches is a target size for me due to Illinois knife laws. If it's under 2.5 or 3 inches and they feel like charging you - you get a misdemeanor, not a felony. Right now I have two Bradford...

Re: Would you buy more or less Spydercos if they were all made in the same steel?
I'd be looking to buy fewer in the future. I'm definitely in to the high end steels.

Re: Spyderco Shop Tour 1&2
I had never before seen this videos. I don't have a favorite knife company, because I love knives and the personalities that make them a reality, but Spyderco is in my top 5. I have more respect for Sal and his family every day. Sal is one **** of a man to take his dream and make it a reality. So ve...

I’ve been away for a while and missed this thread. Full disclosure, I didn’t read all responses, so, what I share may have already been addressed.

Re: Updated shaman sprint steel poll
Sal.......how about Carbon Fiber with M390?? That's Eric's leaning, CF with a super steel like S90V or S110V. It's up for discussion now. Though I must admit, having carried a Shaman quite a bit, I'd like one in Cruwear and brown canvas Micarta. :p sal I like Carbon Fiber with M390 as well.

Re: Spyderco custom shop
Thank you for the honorable mention! This is a means of getting a semi custom knife direct from the factory. You could also use this mechanism to fill orders for sprints because all that needs to be done is to temporarily add the SKU (item) to the list of steels or handles being offered. Once roboti...

Re: Ronin 2 in 204P
This isn't open for discussion. I buy what I buy for whatever reason, and so do you.
I just put an end to the entire argument. I'll live with 2 Bradford Guardian 3's in M390, AND 2 Yojimbos in 20CV. I ordered one more of ea, to make the pairs.

Yes I'd like to carry the best knife and knife steel for self defense.
