Re: Tip Up vs Tip Down Poll
I struggle with Endura and PM2 size knives. I try til up but always go back to tip down. Especially for back pocket carry.
Working on keeping my Endura tip up for a while to see if I can adapt. Anything smaller and tip up is fine.

Re: My First Bento Box Shop Experience
My go to place for HAP40. I recently bought a second Endura at the lower price. Given inflation from when they were produced (2016?) it’s one **** of a good deal in my book.

Re: Is there a quintessential Spyderco?
I would have to say the Military.
Pacific salt goes way back and is unique with H1 SE.

Re: Calypso Jr Sprint Run Considerations
Still looking for YXR7. Guessing it might be a more difficult heat treat. Default to HAP40.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2024 Report
Maybe the future 15V Native 5 and Native Chief can be regular production since they have not been announced as sprint runs. Hint hint.

The S110v Military is still in production. I would not let it pass if you like the Military 1.

Re: Military Sprint Runs No More?
The St. Nicks 4V Military was a nice way to go out. I still think the Cruwear is my favorite. All great examples of a well designed tool.

Re: Spyderco Stretch Original
Everyone lay off the bento box shop HAP40’s. This is my secret place. They don’t accept returns so I know I am getting an item straight from the factory.

Re: What's your use for a Ladybug?
I know this is a ladybug thread but if you have not seen Jazz’s Manbug Salt video it is very good review and shows the capabilities of this little big knife. He even goes through his sharpening.

Re: What's your use for a Ladybug?
Big fan of the Manbug. Just a bit beefier than the ladybug. My main edc is a manbug salt. It’s a machine.
I do have a ladybug in superblue and it’s what people call sharp, very sharp.

Re: C95 Manix Sprint
DLC 4V would get some takers. I wonder if St. Nicks would consider it. They have been willing to go for big knives in the past. Millie 4V is on my top 5.

Re: Why both LC200N and Magnacut for Native Chief LW?
Bingo for me. I plan on the LC200 Chief. Easy to maintain on the sharpmaker.electro-static wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2023 9:20 amI think that it might be to match people’s sharpening preferences. The Vanadium Carbide in Magna-Cut is harder for traditional ceramic and aliminum oxide waterstone and sharpeners to sharpen.
