Spyderco’s warranty/service department could use some improvements. Sent a knife in needing new plastic washers was told they couldn’t fix it. Spyderco makes good stuff they can still improve in a big way to insure confidence in using their products.
Yeah, I'm sure jingping the genocidal dictator is happy to have spyderco in his back yard. Anything to make a buck. Built by trators for sissies like this blade hq flamer
Spyderco customer service is the only knife CS I've ever had to deal with, and it was an abysmal experience. I can't count how many knives I've had throughout my life. Right now I have 31. I've never stripped out a screw on a knife, no matter how cheap, until my PM3. I told their CS I would gladly pay for a new pivot screw and they refused. Wouldn't send me one, wouldnt sell me one. The problem was their locktite at the time. Oh well. WAY too many amazing knife companies out there to deal with terrible CS. Every company has quality issues eventually. Not all of them have good CS, unfortunately. Can't say Im not really disappointed because I'd love a Shaman. Wanted one ever since it was announced lol
Eric Glesser is awesome. I’d love if you guys could interview him so he could talk at length. He just has so much love and enthusiasm for what he does. I couldn’t imagine some of the story’s he could tell like his dad carving knife handles.
@@Bobby.D.1776 nothing is only made in one country. Like steel is made up of a composition. We dont get moly, vanadium, etc from america. Same with the components in titanium etc. Most screws are sourced from cheaper area's. Americas industry has been destroyed by corporate greed and corrupt governments and politicians.
Man I gotta tell ya it's do damn refreshing to see a company that has genuine GENERATIONAL passion for the product they produce. It happens so often that a son or daughter couldn't really care about a buisness or product but with Eric you can genuinely tell he cares every bit as much as his dad and it's freaking awesome. Thumbs up Spyderco.
He literally didn't know the steel of the very first knife lol. Also, he grew up in it and it's his full time job so it's not really that impressive man. Again it's his job and his family's company. Stop being impressed over basic things.
you know what, props to the guy for being so honest. the fact that he quickly mentioned that the knife was made in china when most companies try to hide that is pretty cool honestly i used to be a big time hater of anything spyderco. i thought they were overpriced, the spyderbros were annoying....now i own almost exclusively spyderco and ive never looked back. i was trying to find a do-all knife for defensive/fishing/hiking/edc thats made in usa and lefty friendly and the pm2 was the only choice
I used to think the round opening hole was weird and not very practical! Then I gave one a try and thought why would anyone want a thumb stud! I now have over 25 Spydercos and I'm adding more when ever I can!
Wait... Why didn't they say in their Video interview chat here that the Para~ 2 was Lefty friendly?!? That makes a Huge difference to One who is Lefty dominant...! Hmm 🤔 Thanks for the heads-up, dark inertia...
Sal and Eric Glesser are a national treasure. The real American dream team....doing something they love...doing it very well....and being extremely successful at it. Add making the greatest knife brand on Earth..... I absolutely love my Spyderco Knives.
@@Slippindisclol the majority of their stuff is made in Golden Colorado. Their Ti lines are made in Taiwan, and are coveted because Taiwan is arguably the most advanced manufacturing country in the world.
I know ppl complain about new lineups from spyderco etc. But you have to give them props - besides the transparency, their compression lock [and i think CBB lock], they are one of the few with a long standing lineup of legacy model knives [military, manix, paramil, etc]. AND the biggest boon in my opinion, is how they bring exotic steels [and correctly done] to the masses. I cannot thank them enough for bringing that to the knife world.
Hands down a knife dynasty. Amazing to see a company on top for so long but they are still no doubt my favorite knife company. Knives for knife lovers and steel nerds. Usually seeing a company handed down from founder to a son you see that company go quickly sideways but this man is just as legendary as his father.
So far out of all the companies, I'm most excited about Spydercos new line up. I'm definitely snatching one of those Shamans in 15V. Awesome Collab with BBB!!!
We know about Eric and no surprise there, but I have to say that rep from BladeHQ is the best interviewer, co-host? I've ever seen in the many many videos like this I've watched. Great job, your passion and vast knowledge came through and your conversational flow with Eric was great! You impressed Eric if you couldn't tell in the moment.
Can we give some props to George on this please. Such a good job being engaged and relevant with questions and comments to bring out more on each knife. Well done
I actually came in to the comments to say how much I appreciate Blade HQ getting a guy who actually knows about the knives & knife steels he talks about.
Go watch last year's BHQ videos from the SHOT Show. Bad lighting, zero B-roll, boring interviewers. This year's improvements couldn't be more satisfying. Thanks for turning things around, BHQ!
I am an unapologetic Spyderco fan boy. My first modern knife was a para3 in g10 which I promptly lost and promptly replaced with a para3 lw which I absolutely love.
Please bring back the PM2 with a tanto black blade. I missed out on the awesome Blade HQ exclusives & they sell for way too much on the secondary market.
I love and still have a pocket for spyderco knives. Spyderco was my first knife I purchased on my own and first actual hard real working knife and kept and has a cutting edge ! I can say I have a box of spyderco history with the original dragon fly the original 1'oclock aka Para milli 1 with huge pocket clip two way carry only still have one of my delica with frn pocket clip it's id may not be there anymore but that shows it was used ! My family only carry the delica witch is very great knife for the ladies. Thank you everyone at spyderco earth ! Keep making what works and what we need to work and live thank you ! P.S can you make some hollow ground blades again I don't feel safe with thin blades tips. Delica 2 good blade trusted delica 3 flat ground I don't trust in hard use or stab cutting.
I had to pause the video and comment. I’m buying one of these Shaman’s just because of how geeked out he was about the grind. The pride in that is evident.
I look forward to Spyderco reveal with Eric every year. He runs the company from a true knife guys point of view. Not just about bottom line in dollars but about quality and inovation.
Please have Eric Glesser back on and interview him... He's such a wealth of knowledge and such a great guy... He actually carries and tests the knives and coatings himself... That's epic!!! ❤️🔥🔪
Watched half of the benchmade video and all of this one. Looks like I might be picking up some more spyderco knives. The owner was clearly excited to talk about the knives and the bladehq guy was clearly excited to hear about them and interested in them. All I seen with the benchmade video was the representative happy to tell you all about the new colors and doubled prices. I just want a plain edge non tanto non serrated fixed blade adamas in black, but they don't have it. Glad spyderco is coming out with some fixed blades, I'll have to check those out as well!
I was unaware that CPM 440V was Spyderco's first particle metallurgy steel. I'm happy to have two of them. Both are the Military model, one with a plain edge and the other a nearly fully serrated edge. ... The Military hits my sweet spot. I own six. ... The first run was in ATS-34. Spyderco's policy of CQI, led quickly to several changes in the design of the first Military. My six Militarys come from 3 distinctly different generations. ... I love that Spyderco constantly improves their designs, pushes the boundaries with new steels, and experiments with newer heat treating methods. ... I don't envy the rest of the cutlery industry having constantly to strive at keeping up with Spyderco.
Spyderco is my favorite knife maker by far... My favorite pocket knife is my Spyderco Military Sprint Carbon fiber / 52100... I put an Insane edge angle on it... I LOVE 52100!!!! MORE *Super Blue* PLEASE SAL!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like the smaller fixed blades. Especially the sheepsfoot blade. Been carrying my Moraknivs on my belt for years. I’ve always liked fixed blades the most.
Hmm... mine is sharp but uneven. 14 deg on one side and about 19 on the other. I'm still very happy to have it. I'll just fix it when it finally needs sharpening.
To be completely honest I had always thought of spyderco knives as over priced and cheap looking. 6 years ago I found a pacific salt in a mechanical room and found out I was completely wrong! Since then I've owned 4 more spyderco knives and don't even look at other knives really. For the money I absolutely love the endura 4, but use and completely abuse a Para 3 at work every day. I broke the tip off the Para 3 but haven't replaced it as a work knife because it still works fine and I can easily open it with work gloves on.
After 35+ years with knives one thing I have learned is that Spyderco really knows steel and how to get the best from it. (As you can tell from this vid!) I have used Spyderco as my go-to steel benchmark for almost 20 years now. Where possible, if I want to see if a manufacturer is getting the best out of a steel I compare it to Spyderco for a real world (not just theory) comparison. I'm not a steel science expert and never will be - so I use someone I trust instead. I know they're not perfect but I'm yet to be disappointed. Sharp blades all.
Spyderco, Sal, and Eric are a top notch act. I'm a huge Spyderco collector and fan. If you want great performance look no further. Sal, and Eric are true innovator's in the world of bringing excotic steel's to the masses, as well as innovative designs that work. Looking forward to hopefully trying that 15V steel. Spyderco for people who know. Thanks for the great video guy's. 👍😉🙏
Counter Puppy is a wonderful kitchen knife. Will be adding the Critter to my knife block. Lil Temperance in K390 ohhh yeah Spyderco K390 is something special.
Before he mentioned he was the president of the company I was thinking, man this guy knows everything about all these knives and steels. Now it makes more sense lol.
@@ThEMiKeMFjOnEs i haven't had any issues with the Maxamet. It's the best steel I've ever used. Edit...I've never tried CPM 15v. Big Brown Bear has a great RUclips channel, he does a lot of testing with these steels.
Eric flat out should be what EVERY knife rep should strive to be. His love of what he does. The fact he knows every little aspect of each individual knife etc etc....the guy is awesome. I love me some Spyderco goodness. I still have my first run Spyderco Military in CPM 440V from EONS ago (25 years as he said)...I need to send it into Sp6derco though to see if they can help me as I've actually worn out the friggen liner lock to where its unsafe to use and this saddens me.
Now if we can just get the military in a left handed version. The compression lock is awesome if you use it right handed but awful left handed and hard to hold on too when unlocking it.
Those kitchen knives are awesome! I use a lot of Spyderco knives in my kitchen and gotten my fily to use them. They always perform well! I love that they continue to use kitchen knives at an affordable price compared to Benchmade and their "this is our only kitchen knife at this high price point". Options. Appealing to all at different price points. 🍻🤘❤️
I can vouch. I work in the finishing department. Second day on the job Eric came through the department, which he does fairly regularly, shook my hand AND knew my name. Solid dude.
Jesus I've been waiting for a larger pm2! Love that the new mil2 is at a lower price than the original, unlike other brands out there. Haven't bought a Spydie in years, and can't wait till this one hits the market. Also hoping that these'll have some upgraded steel models in the upcoming months :) Edit: REALLY looking forward to a lot of the Spyderco new releases. Haven't been this excited bout a spydie in years.
Something about George calling Eric Glesser his "Grandpa he never had" was very awkward. You could just see the awkwardness on Eric's face. Pretty sure Eric is younger than George's father's age, so saying he is the "Grandpa he never had" is pretty much George saying he looks old. 😂
Although we can get impatient, I'm glad Spyderco waits to get things right before putting knives on the market. I've just seen some videos about a certain knife brand that has put a bunch of knives on the market with trendy button locks that fail with the slightest tap on the spine. Ridiculous. Spyderco's slip joints are safer than those! Also, Spyderco seems to do certain steels better than other brands. For example, their VG10.
Being into knife making myself I'm a huge fan of how spyderco really go for the function in their tools. I used to think spideys looked goofy, they do, but having handled some, it makes total sense.
Spyderco is going the right way, knives for enthusiasts made by enthusiasts. Congratulations Spyderco!!
They have knives for everyone, at every price point, under any jurisdiction's laws.
Yes, especially those hyper steels
Spyderco’s warranty/service department could use some improvements. Sent a knife in needing new plastic washers was told they couldn’t fix it. Spyderco makes good stuff they can still improve in a big way to insure confidence in using their products.

First thing he said was, "Made in China" 😂 LOLOL
MANY SPYDERCO PARTS COME FROM CHINA!!!
I Hope he explains in length why they still use s30v steel.
@@Bobby.D.1776 why? S30v is great for a normal steel. And Eric said they are going to improve it too. Its already best in the industry.

To be completely honest I had always thought of spyderco knives as over priced and cheap looking. 6 years ago I found a pacific salt in a mechanical room and found out I was completely wrong!

Something about George calling Eric Glesser his "Grandpa he never had" was very awkward. You could just see the awkwardness on Eric's face. Pretty sure Eric is younger than George's father's age, so saying he is the "Grandpa he never had" is pretty much George saying he looks old. 😂
Although we can get impatient, I'm glad Spyderco waits to get things right before putting knives on the market. I've just seen some videos about a certain knife brand that has put a bunch of knives on the market with trendy button locks that fail with the slightest tap on the spine. Ridiculous. Spyderco's slip joints are safer than those! Also, Spyderco seems to do certain steels better than other brands. For example, their VG10.
I like that Para 2!!!
Being into knife making myself I'm a huge fan of how spyderco really go for the function in their tools. I used to think spideys looked goofy, they do, but having handled some, it makes total sense.
That Enuff looks great!
Love Spyderco.
I love my native 5, I'd love to see the native 5 get the K390 treatment.
Spyderco prices LESS...now that's news. We shall see.
Raises hand as a military model fan. Tip up carry even if I have to aftermarket the scales to do so.
