OD Endura clip broke

[rainman]

Hello, just found this forum, great!

I have an OD Endura that I have used daily for several years, a work knife. I finally broke the clip. Was wondering if Spyderco still replaces broken clips for free? A few years back I wrote them a letter about a red Endura with a broken clip and they said I could just pay shipping.

For the record, I probably wouldn't use the OD/E as a work knife if I found one for sale today, and, my girlfriend swiped the red Endura (broken clip and all) a couple of years ago. She wont part with it long enough to get it fixed.

Thanks,

Welcome to the Forum, bro!<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>


I would suggest that you send your Endura to Mike at Spyderco. I hear that he works magic on those broken Spydies! I'm not sure about the address, but you could call first anyway and get the info regarding shipping &amp; handling, etc.

BTW, I think its a wise move to retire your OD Endura. You don't see those around much anymore!<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> The new 2002 Endura's are in, with the David Boye &quot;Dent&quot;, and VG-10 steel blades. Just talk to Glasshartt for any info on those.

Cheers!

Hi Rainman,

Welcome to the Spyderco Forum.

If I recall correctly, I think that they charge $10 for replacing those broken clips. You should call warrantee and repair to be sure.

Howdy rainman! Welcome to Spyderland! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

10 bucks will get your OD <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> fixed to showroom quality. Of course, you could always sell it and easily get enough money for a new Endura.

Keepin' it real...real sharp, that is.

You will be responsible for shipping. For any other charges call mike and he can tell ya what is up! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Thanks to all. I'll call soon to find out the details. Meanwhile, Ill be looking at the new Endura to replace the one I have. It has seen more use than I would like, has been used to cut sod and lots of other things it probably wasn't designed to cut. I'll use a Dremel to re-make the serrations then sharpen it up and retire it.
There is something to be said about a knife that -never- gets left at home (ok, I didn't take it in federal buildings 'cause I hated to see it go in a bag). An always-with-you knife is the one that gets used for everything, and , maybe shouldn't be a knife that will have collection value. A plain jane black Endura would have worked just as well.
Hindsight is 20/20.
Thanks again,

Hey, it all goes back to that old saying:

&quot;Live and learn&quot; <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

You'll be happy with the new Endura.<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Those babies have seen yet another upgrade and are totally awesome! Try to get one with VG-10 steel in it, its great stuff.<img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Cheers!
