Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
I really really tried to put thought into it and match the knife to the person. They'll say thank you and smile, but i think most of them will go somewhat unappreciated.

Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
Gave my boss a Spyderco Caley in VG-10.
He saw it a week ago handled it and I could tell how much he liked it, Lol he then handed me his Delica for sharpening all I had was my Spyderco Double Stuff.
He had chips in the blade so I had to remove them, the brown side did an admirable job with VG-10.
After that the double stuff was loaded up so I washed its soap and water and wrapped it in a paper towel.
Surprisingly the stones separated and I could see the little amount of glue that was used clearly water soluble.
Will soak them again and get rid of that weak glue then I will have 4 surface areas 2 of each grit... Win Win!

Are you talking about Coutellerie Tourangelle?Wartstein wrote: ↑Tue Dec 17, 2019 2:12 pmI think I know which vendor you´re talking about... they had it at around 95 Euros in SE (and now only have the PE left, for just 80). I got two from them, since the Pacific Salt is gonna be discontinued.
But you can still find the SE in Europe for about 110 Euros (for example knivesandtools, even amazon...)
It´s a great knife, really.
(and I´ll send you a pm...)

Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
No more knife funds for the next months/years but if I could get a new knife right now it would be the PE Salt 2, followed by the PE Pacific Salt.Wartstein wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2019 4:16 pmYes, Sir!

Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
I will take whatever you want to send me and thank you in advance. :p
Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
A guy I work with carries a SS Cricket.
I got in a trade a Nishijin Cricket about 2 years ago and had never used it or opened it and had planned on giving it to him. Friday I gave it to him. He told me that he got the Cricket because he saw me carrying Spyderco. (I never knew.) He was surprised that it was the same exact (model) knife.

Each of my children (adults) got a Bow River.
Re: What Spydercos are you giving as Christmas presents?
Gave my brother (only family member who is really into knives and owns Spydercos) a bow river. He thought it was a $100 knife when I showed it to him and couldn't believe it was 1/3 of that.
