Ray Mears? Copression lock? Ray Mears? Golden? Ray Mears?

Looks like a great EDC and the universal awesomeness of S30v is apparently underrated.

This thread is making it hard to not own a cf chap. You should. Wally World has them at $94 online right now. Jet.com has them for $76 after coupon code 20now. Free shipping, no tax. Fulfilled by Redsgear.com. I just bought a backup... It really is perfection, and spends more time in my pocket duri...

I started using the new (to me anyway) WD40 DRY LUBE spray when a clean pivot wants a little help. It works well so far and doesn't attract as much lint as oil or the regular WD. My new Native LW appreciated it. I had not heard of this product. I am interested in trying it because I personally pref...

I seriously feel so much better after reading this thread. Thank you.

Have you ever bought one that you didn't realize you already (still) had?

I would love a OEM part option from Spyderco. And don't get me wrong, the traditional stock clip works great and looks amazing. I just find myself carrying my wire clip knives far more often, and think they compliment the LW design very well.

Loving the Native5 LW, but really wish it had a deep carry wire clip. I have a couple of Casey Lynch's awesome deep carry clips that fit some of my Spydies with the traditional clip, but not the Native5 LW. The Cryo clip was a direct fit, but it makes me feel like a bad person (most likely going to ...

Just got my Native 5 LW today. WOW. I own over a dozen Spydies and never bit on a Native before. I guess I always thought it was a little ugly. First impression was that it was smaller and fatter than I thought it would be, but the ergonomics are spot on and the utility of it could be unmatched. No...

Voted Compression, mostly because I want to see more knives with it. I like the ball bearing a lot, but wish it was as easy to disengage as the axis lock.

Another guy waiting for a CF Chaparral to arrive! Congratulations! Prepare to be impressed. I love mine. ;) Thanks! I got it about an hour ago and initial impressions are very positive. As an owner of a number of Taichung Spydies over the past few years, this guy lives up to the reputation of amazi...

I'm going through the same thing for my Dad's 70th Bday. He's a classic SAK guy, so I want to get him a larger working blade, but something he will actually carry because weight/size is a factor. At this point, I'm leaning toward a Sage1 or Sage2. I find them to be right in the middle size and weig...

The Jet.com 20% off coupon has scored me many knife deals. Right now it only brings the Sharpmaker down to about $50, but the prices on the site change often. Most of the Spydercos ship from Reds Gear. I just bought the Diamond rods and Ultra Fine rods for my Sharpmaker and regret not buying them so...

I just put a GB2 on preorder and can't wait to do a comparo. My well used GB is still my favorite workhorse (maybe favorite knife of all time, seriously), and I have a BNIB backup just in case.
