Spyder co Super blue blade bevels?

[american21]

Is yours cut evenly? I had one way off on a delica on side looked like a machete and the other was nearly flat. Then a delica that is close to ok and an endurance that is perfect

I found this true with just about all knives. It's all done bye hand so it will never be perfect.

I got myself a wicked edge, if I like the knife and I'm keeping it, I'll reprofile the bevel edge the way I like it, write it down to make it easier to do touch ups.

If you are not happy with it return it.

Mine wasn't perfect but neither were any of my other factory blades, Spyderco or otherwise...

I understand they can't be perfect but this one was terrible like 10 degrees on one side and 70 on the other

I sent back two super blue delicas due to uneven bevels.... bad enough that I couldn't live with them. After the second I just asked for my money back. I will be getting the dragonfly 2 super blue, love the steel.

I had the same problem with the Super Blue Endura. I usually don't reprofile until it is time to sharpen. I had one side that is less than 10 degrees and the other side was probably hitting around 30. Took a long time with the diamond rods to get it down to 15 - still a big streak on the other side that I haven't touched. I use all of mine, so I am not that concerned. Not real impressed with the qc on this (the bevels - everything else is great), however. Yes, I know the bevels/sharpening is done by hand, but would expect it to be a little closer than that. I noticed the same thing on the Calypso I recieved recently as well as the Caly 3.5 Super Blue. I typically do not see that much disparity in the Golden Spydercos with the Taiwan Spydercos pretty close to the money right out of the box. I do expect to have to reprofile any/all knives I get, but have noticed it takes a bit more on alot of the Seki models I have picked up - maybe I'm just hitting a run of bad luck. Definately not going to stop me from buying Spydercos!

When do the dragon Flys come out?
