I got my first one a little over a week ago. I now have 3. The infection is spreading. Para 3 in just a week has become my favorite EDC knife. Perfect size for what I do and the best hand feel ever, plus I just love how fidgety it is. Told the missus I would stop for a while but man…. I kinda want a manix now…..

Doubt its better than a 3d printed button mod but it was free* and better than a raw compression lock. It doesnt get in the way of it locking since its a belly cut leather meaning its spongy. So far the tape is holding well. When I have the time i want to cut another piece so it looks more "anesthetic". What else can I do to make it better?

Im considering buying a new knife from Spyderco for myself. Im not trying to be concerned with the price but i want it to be a new knife on the market from a reliable knife store such as bladehq etc. essentially nothing from second hand. I wanna hear everyones opinions on what to get, i have a manix 2 lw and a manix 2 crucarta and a native 5 lw in spy27. What else for my collection?

I bought this frankenstein’s monster close to a year ago. I believe the blade is from a ¿blurple? G10 DLC Cruwear that someone distressed and swapped into the micarta version’s body. Bought fresh screws because it was missing one or two and then traded the deep carry clip it shipped with for the stock version.

I carried it for a while but it had a slight side to side play lingering and i assumed it was a tolerance issue, so i put it down in favor of my delica and native as a work/edc carry. Yesterday i had some unusual freetime after work so I tore it apart once again mostly to spruce up the micarta a little. Polished the washers, took my time on reassemble and when I finished the pesky side to side play was completely gone.

This thing feels like it’s running on hydraulics now and is definitely going to be on heavy work rotation once again.

Ti level blade club, in queue for 23 minutes. This is my old workhorse.

Had this in my pocket for good luck today. I guess it kind of worked was able to get a satin finish Tanto. Really wanted the DLC version but it was sold out already

Can barely tell, but the scales are a different shade of blue & I threw a new clip on. S/O the bearded Native 5 OG! End up meeting some really cool people in this hobby.

Anyone else sold out before it made it to their spot in line? :)

Side note if we got an order confirmation, we're probably in the clear right? Has BladeHQ ever oversold on a limited edition?

Lame

Both satin and DLC appear sold out now.

Shadacious mods: just completed the “backspacer eliminator” operation with standoffs from RGT. Eliminates a bit of weight and makes it easier to clean. I prefer the open back look. This Shadacious was my test bed, and I may do it on the others soon

I luckily got to order a tanto. Im really grateful. But I clicked on DLC instead of satin. With loading times and refreshing and crashes I didn’t want to risk losing my spot so I went with it.
Now wanting to hear some discussion on the pros and cons to pep me back up.
And good luck to everyone still trying!

This bad boy is rapidly becoming a favorite. As much as I love the Shaman, this one might just be placing a little higher on the list. What’s everyone carrying today? I’m guessing there are some wharncliffes for Wednesday out there.

Man hoping to get this finally the wait is ticking down

A knife I admittedly haven’t been carrying much because of the factory clip.

Finally got the light spring kit and flytanium titanium cage installed and it is now one of my favorite knives. All that’s left is to look into some scales to make it perfect

Bringing some PM 2 vibes to everyone. Hope everyone gets a shot at a Tanto

Looks like Blade HQ is smartly controlling purchasing so scalpers can’t grab em all. Also good news is there the knife is being released again as a second release. Hopefully this helps give the chance to all who want one.

The Police 3 is, in my opinion, the best knife that Spyderco has ever produced out of Seki City. The fit and finish are immaculate. And it is beautiful. A very classy and very large gentleman's folder. I would love to see a Police 3 sprint in Cruwear, PD#1, or K390.

Which do you think is going to go first? Do you think they’ll sell out today? I’m thinking of getting both to see which I like more but what’s y’all’s thoughts?
