Spyderco Forums

I heard you might be at the show in November. I live in upstate NY and will try to make it. I'd like to meet you and was wondering if it would be alright to introduce myself. I've been carrying Spyderco since 1996, so i'm still kind of a newbie. Thanks,...

Gail is in the middle of changing over from the old site to the new site. While the transfer happens, some difficulties are possible. If you can't find us for a few hours, please be patient.

Sorry in advance for any difficulties or frustrations. Your...

Hello,

I've a problem, i've lost the belt clip of my endura and it's bad because it's very right for walk with knife. So do you know where i can fpound it

Well, I just took delivery of my new Military. It's the dam* best knife I've ever had the pleasure to handle. There's nothing about it that isn't perfect for me and my needs. Kudos and Thanks, Sal and crew!

And on the seventh day, Mike smiled and went...

Does anyone know if one can buy a new clip for the Endura??????

Does ANYBODY know where I can get one of these great looking knives????

Are these actually shipping to stores yet?

Besides the current Chinook, the Gunting and the Chinese Folder. We now can look forward, compliments of SAL & SPYDERCO to these babies:

1. Native w/Black G10 Scales w/Pearl Inlay Both Plain & Serrated Versions with a different type of pearl on the two...

A few people have contacted me (as the instigator of this beast) asking where they can order this new knife. I'm as foxed as anyone. Sal, will we be able to preorder thru SFO?

How does one join the Spyderco Collector's club? I've been one for 13 years!

Well, I can't be accused of mentioning this too soon.

Spyderco has produced a Sprint run of a special Native. (Actually our GM, Jeff wanted to make them.

The Native model has black G10 scales.

Tip up, right hand only (sorry lefties)

CPM-440V...

so what is the strongest type of metal anyway?

how does titanium compare to steel/stainless steel?

what do the numbers on the blade mean?

The higher the number the better the metal is or is it the opposite?

thanks for answer

One of the kids at work showed me his CPM440V FRN Spyderco Native. It was dull, the pocket clip was all scratched up and it smelled like PEANUT BUTTER!!!!

I offered him $20 for the poor, abused object of our affection, which he accepted.

I have...

On the First day Sal invented the mechanical hand. This is a good thing sayeth All.

On the Second day Sal invented the Triangle Sharpmaker. This too is good .

On the Third day Sal brought forth the Spyderco patented opening hole. Can I hear an Amen ?...

I have a lot of pumpkin carving to do this year! For friends, family, co-workers, my sons day care, etc.

I'm leaning toward the C50 Centofante II for speed & accuracy.

But I'm concerned with the volume of pumpkins I have to carve! Wouldn't either a...

Any information will be appreciated regarding my Spyderco carry knife.

I've been carrying it since the mid 80's and am not quite sure what the model number is as it has no model identifier on it.

It appears to be a Police Model in shape, plain edge,...

If you haven't already done so, please check out Sal's post on page 8 of the Forum Knife? thread

This week, all our phones went dead and I had to call the phone repair

people. They promised to be out between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. When I asked if

they could give me a smaller time window, he...

Hi Sal

Any new developments in the pipeline for new locking mechanisms other than liner etc? Something to show-up the Axis lock maybe? I have several customers who have enquired on this lately.

I know of the current version and the aluminum handle version with gray anodizing & rubber insert, but have there been any other Civilians made in production?

LOVE DEM SPYDIES!

I would like a set of Spyderco steak knives to go with my other Kitchen knives.

How about the rest of you?

I was about to post asking if Spyderco might be able to hold some training classes in Martial Bladecraft. I think Mr. Glesser has read my mind!!!

I was in SFO today and picked up a flyer for seminars by Michael Janich!!! They are to be held November...

I was at the local gun & knife show today, looking at some new knives, wandering around, when I saw a pocket clip that looked like the Gunting spoon clip. Hmm....3 or 4 of the people standing in the group had the same clip hanging onto their pocket also....

I need some good suggestions on how to keep my new stainless native looking its best.I was so impressed with my first one I went and got the stainless model yesterday.Needless to say I'm incredibly happy with my new addition.I have it sheathed,but i...

The very first model I owned was the Endura fuly serrated, it suited my needs since my job involved opening and breaking down boxs. Then one day when I was walking down the road I got rousted by the local ( crupt ) cops they frisked me and found the knife...

Been an apparent problem with Customs, gravity knife definition. Any news, confirmation, etc from anyone on the Spydie forum?

If true.... now what?

I know that I have pestered Sal overmuch of late, so after this I'll give it a long rest. Anyway, a few factors were mulling in my head, naturally resulting in a new SKU idea.

The factors:

1. Dozier folder collaboration impossible.

2. Spyderco...

well, The GUNTING and its trainer DRONE survived countless demonstrations at Soldier of Fortune...We, Ben Brooks, Peter Roman and I, demoed it for three 1 c1/2 hour demos and taught two seminars with Mike Janich on the GUNTING for my part...

The GUNTING...

Are the Delica trainers in the pipeline yet?

Hey Spyderco congratulations on the introduction of these two knives. I just received them in the mail and wanted to thank you. I was wondering where the lock strength of the Chinook was in relation to the liner lock of the Military and the compression...

I just received a Dragonfly, and I noticed the blade has some lateral play in the closed position - enough so as to make a clicking noise when it's moved under light pressure. Is this right?

'Tis better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak...

I did it. I bit the bullet and bought a Ladybug, serrations and all. While I still wish it was a plain edge, I think it may become one of my favorites. Great little knife. Should of bought one sooner. This is the best built key-ring knife I have seen. Who...

It's amazing what you think of in the middle of the night! So here's the question?

What Song does your Spydie remind you of???

Mine is: HUNKA, HUNKA, BURNING LOVE by Elvis! The CHINOOK ! Get it? The Chinook is such a HUNKA KNIFE!!! Never mind, ignore...

I've been trying to make a list of all clipits past and present that used g10 handles and had tip-up carry (or a tip-up option). Here is what I've got so far:

2. C15G Terzuola

3. C19G Terzuola Junior

4. C41G Native, blue...

Hey Sal-

Any idea when this knife will be out? Seen it on bladeforums and on Chai cutlery before it was taken down. I really like the looks of this knife. I really like my cricket and this looks like a comparable knife that I can carry while at work. Any...

Been collecting spydercos for a while now. Some of the older models are hard to find, haven't even seen some of them in person. But I went to a gun and knife show this weekend and what did I find? Not just one but 3 diver models and an old divers probe...

I've been watching the Spydie forum all DAY! Wanting to be the 2000th post but I MISSED!!! WAH!!

Dear Sal,

I hope I'm not opening a sensitive issue here.

Two years ago I bought some Spyderco knives at the NYC show. I later realized I

could have gotten them at better prices on the Internet.

Last year I didn't stop at your booth because I didn't...
