Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
I grabbed a leaf version from National when it was on sale back in Dec, and it has become one of my most used blades at home. I'm trying to decide between adding a Wharnie, or grabbing an Enuff2 VG-10 SE.

Grabbed one of those DF2 K390 Warncliffes.

Pretty good deals at national. The enuff 2 is a steal if anyone was looking for one. Might pull the trigger on the Phoenix.
Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
The Phoenix is an awesome knife. The only Spydie I bought because of how it looks, but Viele & Sal also gave us a great worker EDC knife with this one.Unluckycharm wrote: ↑Thu Mar 02, 2023 5:19 pmPretty good deals at national.

For me the VG10 is an advantage as it can be easily touched up away from home and my Sharpmaker. VG10 is still a fantastic, well balanced steel, even with all the powder in the market. Anytime this knife comes out of my pocket my friends all want to know what it is.
This was a collaboration and a Sprint so the street price reflected that, but I can see how 313 was a bit too steep for some. At 220 it's a steal. I'm tempted to buy a 3rd one, but need to keep some powder dry for 15v and Native family variants.

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Appreciate the feedback, this is exactly what I was looking for. Timing is a little awkward with the manix M4 dropping tomorrow and the 15v shaman on the horizon, but I’m not sure we will be given the opportunity to get a NIB Phoenix at that price anytime soon. I generally have no issue with VG10, but at the price it was hard to take, I think that was a big miss when this knife was developed, obviously lessons were learned. I don’t think we have seen a collab sprint in vg10 since- could be mistaken but I am not able to recall any off the top of my head.CDEP wrote: ↑Thu Mar 02, 2023 5:31 pmThe Phoenix is an awesome knife.

Thank you for your insight.

Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!
Call me weird but I actually really like the color. Mine came yesterday.

Yeah, I like everything about the knife. It has found itself in my pocket every day since arriving.

Glad I caved in and got another Rex45 N5. They're sold out now. Been loving that M4 M2!Paraguy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 09, 2023 1:53 pmhttps://www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco- ... fe--180238

Blade HQ has the SE Aqua Salt for $124.99, and being discontinued it may also be the last chance to buy one if you're interested.
All SE all the time since 2017

Might have to grab Aqua Salt SE - I got the regular one at a sierra sale for 99 bucks but I love SE blades. Kinda wish I'd ordered it already with my M4 delica.
