This knife doesn’t see very much carry, but I thought I’d try for Micarta Monday.
The knife was relatively dull, and covered in tape residue when I pulled it out. Spent 10 minutes cleaning it up with thee Sharpmaker, rubbing alcohol, and a microfiber cloth over breakfast and it’s good as new. S30V sure is easy to touch up on the CBN rods.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Easy enough fix LB…YouTube“Spyderco Caribbean detent” on Knife Video Channel…makes the knife waaaaaay better
Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
i love the detent the way it is. that's why i put weak in quotes. the caribbean has a very nice, smooth action and i don't get why people complain about it.SaltyCaribbeanDfly wrote: ↑Mon Feb 20, 2023 8:29 pmEasy enough fix LB…YouTube“Spyderco Caribbean detent” on Knife Video Channel…makes the knife waaaaaay better

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Mine is a factory 2nds for like $100 a few years ago. Well worth that price for only a slightly warped blade...but, for the price of Maxamet these days, I'd opt for something from one of the other high wear resistant steels.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Gotcha…hope you didn’t think I was complaining cause I wasn’t…guess I didn’t get the “weak” part of the equation I strengthened the detent on mine cause it slipped outa my hand while kayak fishing one day and landed right between my bare feet I didn’t get too aggressive when enlarging hole, just enough to allow the ball to disappear…it’s much improved for “my “ likes now…still smooth and fidgety as he…pops out with a resounding snap…I can intentionally drop it and it won’t come open which is what I was looking for…I’d say 90% of the time whatever large knife I carry is iwb so it was either fix detent AND mod scales for lateral grip or sell itladybug93 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 20, 2023 8:59 pmi love the detent the way it is. that's why i put weak in quotes. the caribbean has a very nice, smooth action and i don't get why people complain about it.SaltyCaribbeanDfly wrote: ↑Mon Feb 20, 2023 8:29 pmEasy enough fix LB…YouTube“Spyderco Caribbean detent” on Knife Video Channel…makes the knife waaaaaay better
Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
your caribbean looks great. i'm glad you were able to dial it in to your liking. i planned to mod mine when i got it, but i couldn't bring myself to do it because i liked it so much. i'd still like to get a pe sheepsfoot to mod someday though.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Ok Thanks. The warpage was a consideration and the price. PM2 here in maxamet is a $360 dollar price tag.
Cheers

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Kinda wished I had gotten another one -sheepsfoot SE, especially after seeing all the positive comments on how good they cut,but the mods were a P.I.T.A. hopefully I’ll pick up one up eventually on secondary…

Do you rebuild engines? You must be a mechanic of some sort. I always like your pictures in the shop!
