Any interview with Eric is worth watching. He is always a highlight for me. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and positive spirit is contagious

@paul_schuette 5 ай бұрын

Spyderco is the uncontested king of R&D with new materials when it comes to production knife companies. Sometimes, I find myself thinking that they don’t introduce completely new models often enough. Then, they reveal some crazy new material that they’re bringing to market that blows away the performance of previous materials or caters to a niche market that is generally overlooked (think Salt series). It’s really cool to see and makes me want to support them even more than I already do. And, it’s so apparent that Eric is truly passionate about what he does. That excitement is contagious.

@davidgarrett5671 also interesting if you watch the Spyderco vid KC released yesterday Eric even talks about using the Mule team and how all the feedback on their 1st heat treat was that it wasn't performing, so they tweaked their process to get their Magnacut right. So that's 3 large knife companies that increased the hrc on their magnacut due to the lack of performance at softer heat treat. If Spyderco agrees with me on the optimal heat treat for Magnacut I suppose that's good enough. Maybe you and other dude can start telling Eric Gleaser how wrong he is for not thinking softer steel is ok.

@QenaitheCustodianGuard Ай бұрын

I have always hated the aesthetics and found the hole dumb, got myself a delica 4 and I love it, besides two things : 1:the closed profile is awful and the hole makes it unnecessarily "wide" (or tall I guess). 2: the pocket clip is so damn ugly and sucks, I run mine loose in the back pocket and the thinness and lightweight natureof the knife makes it real easy. It slices awesome, is so easy to resharpen and has huge fidget factor.

High performance steels and proper heat treats are what set Spyderco apart from everyone else. Very few of their models actually fit my hands and preferences because I can't for the life of me understand the point of a finger choil on any but the smallest knives, but the Bodacious looks great, apart from the flat scales, which are uncomfortable. Hopefully, it will come out in more interesting steels.

I know people bemoan price upticks in the market, but I feel, with few exceptions, the knives are at a pricepoint that makes people carefully consider their next purchases and allows sustainability for knife makers, especially those with shops in the US and Taiwan, like Spyderco.
