Spyderco Counterfeits, Clones, Replicas, etc. A place to list and reference all Spyderco counterfeits, clones, and replicas that are found. Anything that isn't a legitimate Spyderco fits in this area.
I'm starting a new series of threads and I'm hoping that others will share my desires. The Title i.e. It's About Time For: indicates the desire for the return of certain past models that have gained cult status or consistent popularity as time has gone...
Sorry to be impatient, but are there any updates regarding the Bodacious?
I've never been so excited about a folder's release. I've carried a Military (S30V, S110V, and 52100) since 2005 or so, and I believe that the Bodacious will be replacing my...
With the implementation of the Endela, the Endura family got a middle ground model sized between Endura and Delica (though as a matter of fact closer to the Endura than the Delica)
I think it would be great if in the (backlock) Salt line the gap between...
I’m confused by the Chinook line, have several questions. If you can answer any, grateful am I.
1) Why did this model have so many iterations - what was being changed or improved over time?
2) C1 seems to be sought after. Just rareity, or steel, or...
This will be my ongoing experiences with all 3 salts as my work steels...
Recently, there has been a lot of discussion involving the now 3 salt steels, and I've seen a lot of opinions of thoughts on them all. I just wanted to share my experiences of real...
I just received my Stretch 2 XL Salt serrated from GP Knives, and I'm loving it. I can't help but think that it would be a near perfect folding hunter. It has:
1) Excellent ergonomics for a secure, comfortable grip.
2) Grippy texturing, which also...
I have been looking around for a new flattening technique for my whetstones and I was hoping to pick the brains of anyone who has used any of the various methods I'm considering.
The first method is adhesive backed sandpaper on glass. I have used Wet or...
I’m sorry but in my opinion these prices are getting a little too high. Spyderco is one of the best and they have to make a profit. However when the Chinese s35 tenacious is going for $120 I think that’s a little much. In 2018 I bought my DLC PM2 for...
Well, I feel like a little kid right now just waiting for Santa, in this case the Mail person. I am waiting on 3 Spydercos: a Delica super blue, Cat G10, and Pacific salt spyderedge. What's in the mail on your side of the woods?
I recently purchased Ripp’s Garage Tech scales for my two Spyderco Shamans. The scales are the “Spyderco Shaman Skinny Tero Tuf Scale Set”, one in gray and one in OD green for my stonewash blade and my DLC blade, respectively.
Hello friends!Special respect to Sal for the great knives! I've been using Military for a long time - this is my favorite EDC. I'm a doctor and knives are my hobby.I recently got a Civilian but without a clip. What are the options to purchase an original...
here's a look at the tip profile & a comparison with a pe pacific salt 2 tip. this pacific salt has a thinned out edge but the tip is otherwise stock, not one of my thinned out...
Presentation
The box and packaging here leave a great first impression. You get the sense you've purchased something that's very high quality. Custom fit box so the knife doesn't move...
Does quality of back lock in Japanese Spyderco improved? Around 2008-2010, I bought Police SS and Endura 4 FRN, both of them got very disappointing vertical blade play very quickly, without even abusing it. Some guys who purchased Endura at the same time,...
I've got a Manix 2, one of the 15V BBB sprint runs. I noticed that it has some vertical blade-play/lock-rock, and I can't figure out why. I have thoroughly cleaned it out and everything, but it doesn't seem to go away.
I was inquiring about getting one of my fixed blades DLC coated and received an unexpected response from the maker. This got me thinking, is there any impact to the performance of Spyderco's DLC coated blades due to the high temperatures of the DLC...
I was browsing the BladeHQ site and noticed that just today they put up a coming soon page for a Shaman with black micarta scales and an XHP blade. Does anyone know anything about that? More specifically, is it a sprint run, a new variant, like the...
Hello forumites, i would like to sharpen my double edged clinch pick on the sharpmaker. It fell out of the sheath while changing clothes. It fell on it´s tip and a tiny part chipped off. I would like to sharpen it on the sharpmaker but tips aren´t my...
Just throwing this out there. There's been 2 iteration of the Para 3 with Cruwear, but none in CruCarta. Why hasn't someone (*cough* DLT) ever ordered one up as a sprint? My 2 favorite patterns these days are the Native and the Caly but a close 3rd is the...
I have been looking for years for a Spyderco Fish Hunter. I've been scammed and I'm starting to lose hope. Is there anyone who knows where to find one or can sell me one? I'd be more than ecstatic. It's a perfect knife for my needs. Thanks guys.
I oil all my knives with 'dry silicone lube and generally don't have problems with minor corrosion or staining. (K390 has been fine for me, and is less stainless than Cru, no? It's has nice patina, but never rust)
It may be time for a dedicated thread to Sal's fantastic story drops. A place to reference them all. Here are some recents. I will try to find as much as I can, but if you know of some, please drop them here.
I love my Delica but miss the fidget factor of the compression lock PM2? Is there a Spyderco in the D4 size with a compression lock? Or at least similar fun factor to a PM? Thanks!
PS and if it came in a Salt version, I’d be smitten!
I've been looking for years and I'm starting to give up hope. I desperately want a Fish Hunter. It's my grail knife but it seems to be impossible to find. Nobody seems to be able to help me find one. I'm hoping I'm wrong though. Can anyone help me?
I'm interested in a little genome project for the original Swiss-made C22 Walker. There are several variants, but it's really hard to determine from the archives and Wiki all of the total combinations and which...
New guy here. I have been a fan of the sage series for a long time and have been collecting them for years. I just ordered the last knife I was missing for this collection.
What do you all think will be the next knife in this series...
I’ve been absolutely blown away by how excellent the Jumpmaster 2 SE is at work, so I’ve started looking to see if I can find a larger H1/H2 fixed blade for use in place of my machetes and parang that I hack really thick but soft materials up with (think...
Are any of you guys using your Spydercos for boating and how are you securing them? I bought a Pac 2 Salt SE to leave on my boat but wondering if I should lanyard it to my wrist or rig up a float of some kind perhaps. I could zip tie it to the helm but it...
Hello everyone. I'm Mike Blue. I mostly lurk here but after a discussion with Sal, I've been asked to post this subject and collect the thoughts of everyone willing to share.
Those of you who know Sal, may or may not know that he shaved with a straight...
Has anyone tried adding more black to black G10 scales to make them even blacker? I have some 'Black 3.0' paint that I know can be used to dye clothing - I was thinking about using it to dye a pair of PM2 black G10 scales.
I've been admiring the photos of the Lil' Temp 3 in the Spyderco Product Catalog, and noticed it has an unusually thick 4mm blade that's just under 3 long. Can someone explain the design to me -- I don't quite understand the logic of this knife, despite...
