Shaman sprint run?

Kinda OT just based on my observations and findings with what I own:

With the CF/S90V Shaman which I own, I can easily disengage the blade by doing a violet gravity shake (not like mild salt shaker test but rather by a strong downward shake). The blade is a chunky and heavy piece of S90V and the detent is typical Spyderco, i.e, not too weak and not too strong. I can't imagine the CruWear to be any different than my experience.

This experience is neither here not there, but it pacifies my own quest in chasing this thing. For the purpose of reference, out of the last 5 most oder Spydies which I own (CF/Ti Military, Spydiechef, GB1, Shaman & Police4 K390) only the P4 with backlock doesn't do this no matter how I fast-ball it (releases and then gets sucked back in, kinda dangerous doing it like that so don't do it!).

This is not a knock against Spyderco as I easily did that kinda stuff with much more expensive Shiros too. Again for the purpose of reference, the only Shiro which is like a friggin tank, is my "lowly" entry-level F3 SRBS!
 
Well, don't travel to NY with that knife ....

BTW, you should try a Szabo.
 
You guys must use your knives a lot differently than I use mine. (Not a value judgment, just an observation.)

I have rarely had an issue with any of my folders, whether from Spyderco, another manufacturer or custom made. (I have been poked by one which had the tip peek out a bit...and that was a custom from an esteemed maker and friend (who is sadly no longer with us).

I got tired of trying to find this knife and bought a new watch instead...

I was tired too and bought two M390 Benchmade Contego dealer exclusives for $280, which are cheaper than what I would need to pay in order to get this one Shame I mean Shaman.

Hi Sal
thanks for saying hi! I love your business and products. bought my first pm2 this year and fell in love with spyderco!! I saved up some money and managed to get a micarta shaman (its getting delivered tomorrow) can not wait! One day i would love to check out the factory or something like that
 
Any word on any future sprints/exclusives for the shaman? Besides the blue/green micarta shamans sal has mentioned

Sal mentioned on the Spyderco home forums that there are several in the works, but that's all the further he commented. There is a Rex 45 and Rosewood one coming soon.

True dat. Just wait until the first CW Shaman shows up for $400+ in the Classifieds, that will bond even more. :)

In the mean-time:

Those used knifes look great. Thank goodness they didn't have micarta scales soaking up any funk.

I got a feeling the Rex 45 will be even harder to acquire. You think it will drop before the end of the year or early next year?
 
NK's just dropped and then sold out. It did last more than a few mere seconds though!
 
I was driving when NK's dropped, so I had no chance. BHQ is about the only one left I know of and I'm sure it will be a mad scramble. Guess I'll wait for one of the future sprints/exclusives.

From Spyderco forum:

"Just spoke to BladeHQ. They said they're going to build full inventory and announce a drop. The gentlemen expects late December. Sign up for the newsletter/IG/FB."

Dumb.
