Re: Thin Edge Preservation
I've done a lot of manual regrinding. By that I mean pressing the primary bevel flat against the stone. Before that I used a 1X30 but my results were less consistent. Also the 1X30 gave me convexity when I prefer to maintain true flatness. There are cheap diamond plates good for hogging steel. Then ...

Re: Spyderco Advocate Bearing Replacement Question...
I don't think the plastic was an issue. A lot of bearings are done that way. The issue was the smaller bearings against thin washers that caused indentation and a bumpy action.

Re: SMKW and Spyderco Shot Show
I agree that the fuller needs to be lengthened. Wouldn't this be the first alt shape PM2 that isn't a dealer exclusive? Or is it exclusive to SMKW?
We've had BHQ Tanto, CutleryShoppe Wharnie, and BladeOps Wave.

Re: CPM 15v Manix 2
Manix 2 is ground thicker than it should be but you can say that about most production knives.

Re: CPM 15v Manix 2
They were in stock at SMKW this morning for about an hour. Most drops have lasted about 10 minutes.

Re: CPM 15v Manix 2
There were reports that Spyderco was asking dealers to place larger orders for Exclusives. So I would speculate that this Sprint is also a bigger run.

Re: Does your Spyderco knife passion depend on acquiring more?
The addiction is real! Buying and selling are critical components for me but there's so much more.
It's not the worst obsession to have.

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!
That looks great! I think I'm still more interested in the Lightweight in a different steel.

Re: DMT extra extra coarse
I've had much better results with the Atoma 140 than the DMT XX Coarse. The DMT wears out faster.

Re: Best Spyderco slicer 2022 edition
They should offer the Watu with other scales. I've seen the aftermarket wood scales so maybe something to those or micarta would be a good factory option.

Re: Blade Length to Weight Ratios
I like a knife that is light for its size. Unless it's trying to be some overbuilt chunker.

Re: Spyderco Siren CF/S90v Sprint…In The Wild!
I prefer the look of this Sprint. If it shows up in stock at Spyderco before the end of the month I might score one. Have to use a credit from a warranty claim by then.

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!
Fair points. I would counter by saying that large folders don't sell as well. Expensive folders also don't sell well. Finally, making it a Sprint would improve sales because of the collectability factor/ FOMO.
