It's **** Superb! Beauty and function. Great Job I have always stayed away from using most of my SS scaled Spydies because if you just look at the wrong way they scratch and get ugly quick. I hope Sal sees this and brings it to life in a production model. He can do what he did with the etched Cricke...

We obviously both get the joke. But for those of you that don't, it's in reference to the "hard use video" of the Manix. The guy broke a perfectly good knife. And, even before that "hard use video", it was reported to Sal several times that the ball locks only short coming was th...

The Bug is the answer! I had to get my wife and three daughters to carry knives. (wife is 54, daughters two are 24, and one is 27) They refused for years, then I finally showed them the bug and they all wanted one on their key chain!!! Now I have to figure out how to get them to move up to a Militar...

This is my first pattern welded steel blade so I have nothing to compare against. Being VG-10, it should be a very good blade. A small complaint is that the patterning is shallower on one side compared to the other. I'm guessing the evenness is different on every knife. I've read a few complaints a...

Welcome beardedman, You have to get them from him. However, I would not use them. They are way to valuable. Workers are some of the earliest knives if not the first knives that Spyderco made. Two serrated edged, aluminum scaled Workers just sold for over $200, per knife, on eBay in the last week. I ...

Nice find.

As I remember, we made 1200 pcs, but they are not very easy to find.

Thanks Sal... Now I can only hope you consider your use of the push button liner lock release where applicable. That was a stroke of genius. (I am not trying to suck up, I assure you.)

Spyderco Solo -- I Feel Lucky

I heard about the Solo, but knew nothing. As good luck would have it I was able to buy a Spyderco Solo on eBay within a few days of reading a Blade Forum post dating back to 2003 in which Sal had a lot of interesting detailed info he shared. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=239665&...
