Great thin slice-y option with a blade and handle length intermediate in length between Delica and Endura. For day-to-day use I appreciate the less swept point of the Delica/Endura profile much more than I...
I am pulling the trigger on making the raven2 our new S-3 ranch knives, hopefully BD1 will be a little stouter workhorse then the 8cr , I love the cara cara and meadowlark for size and ergonomic, however I felt that it was time for a steel upgrade, and my...
Has anyone upgraded their Raven 2 to phosphor bronze washers? I am looking for the size of the washers and where to get them. I love my Raven but the action on my tenacious is better. Only real difference is the washers so I am looking to upgrade.
I had a G10 Meadowlark, Cara Cara, and Robin that I bought from Amazon all that same about 8 years ago. They were bad. The clip screws wouldn't tight ten down enough to prevent clip wobble, and they stripped out easily. Upon disassembly, they were full of...
After tons on searching I found a website wit NIB for $40 each of both the Byrd wings and the slipit. I ordered both. I know their no Dyad but what are your guys thoughts on both Byrd’s compared to each model and compared to the Spyderco Dyad models
I bought a used Hawkbill and took it apart to clean it. I don't know if it was assembled this way from the factory. It looks like the liners have burrs around the clip holes on one side. It doesn't interfere with the one side but the other side pinches...
I pulled out my G-10 Flight this evening, opened it and it didn't lock. Curious, I started looking and discovered the spring holder portion of the back spacer had snapped, leaving the spring laying loose. The knife is long out of...
i see that the crow 2 and the starling will be discontinued next year. are there plans on replacing them with new byrds in those catagories or are they just being dropped.
i ask because the crow 2 i used at work for 2 years. loved it, it was so thick you...
Just sitting here contemplating my navel, and how Mr.& Mrs. Glesser came up with the name Byrd in Spyderco Byrd knives. I realize the knives are named after birds, my question is why choose birds for a knife theme. Not that there's anything wrong with...
I have read this forum for a long time, but this is my first post, so, hello!
I am working on a mod for my Cara Cara 2 and I need some information if anyone has it available... Does anyone know what size the clip screws are? Are...
In the past I've been getting CO2 refills for my soda maker from Dick's Sporting goods. Since I've recently moved, I've found this 100% all American Mom & Pop small business army surplus store that is roughly the same distance as Dick's and started...
I like to give my friends and relatives pocket knives and I've come across a few things:
-If you're not already interested in knives, the difference between a Byrd and a Spyderco isn't always something that people notice.
-Where I live a Meadowlark is...
Last week, I received a byrd Harrier 2 lightweight in the mail. When I took the knife in hand, I was floored by the quality of it. I have other FRN byrds. I currently own a Cara Cara 2 and Meadowlark 2, and I've previously owned the first generation...
I've always been curious about this model, but I don't see much of a point in getting a part-serrated or plain edge for my uses, unfortunately. The G10 version would have been nice, but apparently it's discontinued and likely not making a return.
So my latest acquiring was the Sharpmaker and I added a G10 Robin 2 as a bonus.
At first glance, some minor unfinished details like leftovers in G10 drilled holes and sharp backlock uneven Boye detent, nothing that can't be fixed or lived with
Hi everyone, I just got my first byrd in the mail today and I have to say that I am extremely impressed with it. The fit and finish is great and the knife feels really light and well-balanced in the hand. I am seriously thinking about adding the titanium...
Just curious why there is no counterpart to the spyderco bug for byrd blades? Seems like brand identity would be helped by a recognizable bird on the blade, and an easy critter to make a logo of.
is it just me or do i just have bad luck. i have purchased 3 robins from bladehq and sent at least 2 back to be swapped. the action on a byrd is not the same as a df. is this a byrd thing or a qci thing?
A couple years ago now, I had a SpyderPac stolen from my apartment, and while I have managed to replace 14 of the 18 knives (all were spyderco or byrd), two that I have had the worst time with have been the Crossbill duo I so badly miss.... I guess my...
Someone made me an offer I couldn’t refuse for my Urban K390, plus I was concerned about its pivot durability, and so I needed a U.K. legal replacement for my work carry. My UKPK’s are too pricey or rare to abuse in the work environment so I ordered a...
Hey Byrd owners!
Quick question,what byrd model is flickable and smaller than pm2? Is for my 11 years old.I was thinking about some spyderco for him but I really don't know how serious he is about it than cheaper option is Byrd.Ty
I know i'll hear the best knife is a fixed blade, but i'm looking for a folder for skinning some texas whitetail and having for all purpose use. I will not be cutting ribcage with it, just skinning the deer and cutting backstrap and tenderloin out and...
This was a cool Christmas surprise. A while back my Byrd Cara Cara CE got lost in a friends car. They swung by today with a few Christmas presents, including my old knife!
It got a few rust spots sitting in a car for so long, but those will come...
I presently own a endura,delica and a harpy in SS all of which are SE. My one byrd SS is a Cara Cara combo edge I am thinking of adding a plain edge byrd to my Stainless collection. Any suggestions?
Anyone know if there's any where to find deep carry or even black clips for Byrds?
I've got a meadowlark FRN and my biggest complaint is the silver clip, it's shiny and non-deep carry. I guess my other complaint is that I couldn't get one of the screws...
first of all it is good to see the forum is still a safe heaven for all the spydernuts.
I have bin away for a little less then 2 years now. ( time is a strange thing )
Honestly the feelings i had when i left the knife world in 2016 where not the best....
I bought several of the G10 Crossbills when they were readily available, to give away as gifts.
I kept a plain edge version for myself.
Later I started looking for a serrated version, and I couldn't find them anywhere.
Luckily I got one not too long ago,...
I sure do like my new SS handled hawkbill but I like to play around and clean them out from time to time... has this been discussed before? Any tricks on maintenance?
I recently noticed that the all black stainless Byrd knives have screw together construction instead of the pinned style we're used to seeing on stainless models.
Personally, I don't mind the pinned construction, but I'm intrigued by the screw style on...
This morning i got to pick up my newest member to my collection.
Namely the meadowlark 2 in blue.
First off Sal this color is so beautyfull is there anyway spyderco's can also be made in this color in the future?
