Spyderco should honor benchmade by making a PM2 with an axis lock
This again?Spyderco should honor benchmade by making a PM2 with an axis lock
Wouldn't it be a Sage 6?
They can call it whatever they want as far as I'm concerned.
But yes especially in the context of this thread, sage 6 seems appropriate
Why title it "Spyderco Honors Benchmade" - they are (were) thanking everyone who pays (paid) a licensing fee IN 1997!
Lots more people since then pay those fees. Still do.
Seems a little click bait.
Deep 6 seems more appropriate
OK ! Let's be somewhat reasonable .
Oh geez, that was a train wreck.
Yes ! Let's notice that Cold Steel is also honored by Spyderco . Maybe not quite the outlaw bungholes that they are so often portrayed .Interesting that it says that clips and serrations were not protectable, as I'm pretty sure the clip on their Voyagers was the only thing that Cold Steel was paying royalties for at that time (CS knives with opening holes and their version of the Axis lock came later I believe).
From 1996-1997 catalog:

And from a BF post I found by Sal in 2003:
"I might also add that Cold Steel was the only company that elected to pay Royalties to Spyderco on our clothing clip. Most companies just "borrowed" it without so much as a "thank you". (Al Mar had asked permission)."
I think ganzo already "honored" both spyderco and benchmade with that knife.Wouldn't it be a Sage 6?
If they did they would engineer it to avoid that skinny little piano-wire spring. What? Oh, yeah, they already did. Nevermind.Spyderco should honor benchmade by making a PM2 with an axis lock

I'm a knife guy, I like poking holes...

old man if you trust that spring less than you do a frame lock you're not very bright
Hahaha
Axis locks will fail to lock up....They ain't gonna fail once they do tho. And those springs are replaceable
Many other locks aren't gonna warn you...They'll just bite you.
Especially over decades of use.
If you prefer liner or frame locks you have no sense. Compression is better but still inferior
