Spyderco Forums

ANd it just keeps spreading. My neighbor came over, who is not a knife person at all, saw me stropping my new military 2, and asked to see it. After 5 minutes of examining it, he busted out his phone, went online and bought one. So i want to know exactly what pathogen or addictive chemical or illegal drug spyderco is embedding in their handles?

Kinda like this?

You could imagine replacing the flip phones with people pulling out, opening and using Spyderco folding clip knives, and the catchphrase becomes:

"JOIN THE CLIP SIDE."

It's a disease but it's definitely not horrible

Aye, and execution by one’s wife when she finds your knife collection after a couple of years is usually how it ends

that's why some keep them in the sock drawer. i prefer the underwear drawer. no one is checking there and my underwear already have plenty of holes, so i don't have to worry about that.

Wait till you start having nightmares of all your Spydercos being in a box marked $5 a piece at your estate sale.

It's horrible indeed, horrible for your wallet and credit card, that is.

forumites of old refer to it as being bitten by the spydiebug. there is no cure.

It is for sure a dreaded addiction disease and we used to warn people about it when they joined the forum.

Just got my first spyderco a few days ago and I already want to get another one. After looking at so many knives trying to figure out the one I wanted it just made me want more than one.

I've got a bad case of the disease. It appears hopeless until I get them all!

Yeah I’ve only got like 31/32? but I aspire to be RevMike Jr. at 406 Spyderco’s and 80 different steels

Got this last week with an order

THAT is utterly hilarious and we should ABSOLUTELY make a spyderco version of that video. Whos down? I do video editing so if someone films it I will cut it

If you guys think Spyderco pocket knives are a disease, then you should not get into high end Japanese kitchen knives. Just sayin ...

same neighbor who showed up at my garage last night just called me to ask me about the other spydercos in my collection and other knives I wanted to buy. He hasnt even received his new military 2 yet and hes already looking at others. He has a boat and loves to go out on the water so I told him about the salt series and now I fear I put him on a path that will lead to his divorce lmao

The only known cure is more Spyderco!

I suffer (gladly) from both these maladies.
