Wow, I'm in the opposite camp! I recently sold six knives...and then very quickly replaced them.

Where do you sell knives? I’ve been thinking about selling my Euro Edge so I can get the Hundred Pacer.

The Exchange on Blade Forums is the best option for me

Unless they come up with a completely wear-proof steel you're going to have to sharpen it eventually regardless. I have S110V and Maxamet and I find I sharpen those almost as much as I sharpen all the other steels I have. If I wait too long to sharpen then it just takes me longer to get it back to w...

Swayback... please.

That's about the only thing on my wish list right now. I have current model in mind too but I'll probably only buy it if it goes on the disco'd list and is heavily discounted.

Whaaaatttt??? Oh you poor thing want me to send you one to feel better?

She's probably already had whatever it is you'd have send :rolleyes:

Don't have a Mantra 3 but that's mostly because I have far less interest in it vs the Sliverax. Also if anything I think I'd find a Mantra 2 over the 3 anyway. Big fan of the Mantra (1) and Sliverax. So for me the Mantra 3 is like a cross between the two. I planned on getting one when they first ca...

So are you all, in fact using them for food prep, or for general edc, or both? Edit: I'm asking because I'd love to have a great food prep folder for foraging days (the blade length on my native salt just isn't always long enough), but I don't love the titanium scales on the spydiechef. If this was...

Comp lock was supposed to undergo CQI to drop shut like golden models.

I didn't realize this was something that needed CQI. I think mine was a little tight out of the box but I have it dialed in perfect now. I have had Paras that needed adjustment too. It'll be interesting to see what they change.

Can anyone confirm if the comp lock tab is rounded like on the sliverax or more squared off like on the PM2/para3? The only thing I really don’t like about the sliverax is that rounded tab but if the tab is more squared off like on the golden comp locks that could be enough to sway me. Not quite su...

Told myself getting one $160+ knife in S30V was enough (Smock)...but this Kapara always tugs at me every time I see one posted. Not sure what to do here! All I can say is it's a really nice design regardless of blade steel. It's popular enough that, if you don't like, it I'm sure you can get your m...

So will this batch be CQI'd with the new and improved comp lock or no? I thought I heard the next batch of Ikuchis would be CQI'd I think I remember hearing about this but no CQI needed IMO. I'm perfectly happy with it as it is. The only thing I don't like about CQI is if you have an original versi...

Heads up!

I just saw a post on IG that Rivers Edge Cutlery is taking pre-orders for a shipment of Kaparas that they're expecting to arrive this Friday. I imagine all the other dealers will be receiving them soon as well.

No one's biting on them. I'm tempted, but I think I have my fill of little knives for now.

I have 3 Manbugs and 2 Ladybugs. One of the Ladybugs is serrated and is what I keep in my pocket when I mowing my lawn. That's the only time I really use serrated. So no need for the serrated Jester for me

Looks like they're back up....temporarily I'm sure

EDIT: Yep very temporary. Gone again now

Cmon spyderco give us a new Jester already

I was just thinking that. I almost bought one of the green one's from KP but if I'm going to spend that kind of money on a Jester I want plain edge.

I had a feeling this would be a slow seller, after all the other exclusives lately...especially models with M390 and red G10. This one just struck me as boring...considering there is already the same model and steel, just in blue instead of red. As many have said...too many PM2's and Para 3's getti...

This just popped up on my IG feed...

Still available...

I'm not in for this one but good luck to those who are.

I'm out too. I have an abundance of red knives and I already have a M390 Para 3. Actually, I could swap the blades from my blue M390 and the red/DLC/4V and make one of these and one with blue/DLC. Hmmm....

I have a hard time with it all too. All I know is they all get sharp haha
