Spyderco is the uncontested king of R&D with new materials when it comes to production knife companies. Sometimes, I find myself thinking that they don’t introduce completely new models often enough. Then, they reveal some crazy new material that they’re bringing to market that blows away the performance of previous materials or caters to a niche market that is generally overlooked (think Salt series). It’s really cool to see and makes me want to support them even more than I already do. And, it’s so apparent that Eric is truly passionate about what he does. That excitement is contagious.
They make the same knives over and over and over and over and over and over
@@MrSpolaR
But they offer them in many different types of steel. Additionally, in terms of ergonomics and pure function they are superior to just about anything else on the market. I'll take superior function over new knife models every year.
@@MrSpolaRIf it aint broke🤷♂️
@@ericsierra-franco7802I agree but I have been itching for new spyderco models for awhile, so I'm most excited for the bodacious
@@MrSpolaR Benchmade fanboy detected. Execute order 66. 🔥🚀☢
Any interview with Eric is worth watching. He is always a highlight for me. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and positive spirit is contagious
“Cruwear is coming across the board” might be the greatest single sentence I’ve ever heard since becoming a knife geek
Magnacut supremacy 🤠
@@MichaelBertolino
From the looks of the latest catalog and Eric’s comments on their heat treat research, it seems like magnacut might be getting the same treatment, too. No complaints there…my native, mules and ace reo in magnacut have all been fantastic so far (aside from a horribly burnt factory edge on the reo)
I hope they give some cruwear options without micarta…
@@MichaelBertolino Rex 121 annihilation 👉
the cruwear on my yojimbo from spyderco doesn’t perform that well tbh
Eric glesser will always be a legend like father like son 🫶🏻
It's easy to see the passion that he has for knives
He seems unbelievably passionate, sympathetic and super knowledgeable about their products.
Good to hear Eric talk about getting the Heat Treat right on their Magnacut, shocking how many people will defend companies that don't, or think that proper heat treat doesn't matter. If there's one company you can trust on heat treat its Spyderco.
Spyderco doesn’t list the HRC so how do you know they got it right?
@@davidgarrett5671 because Larrin discussed a test done on various PM2s in the video. The Magnacut version Rockwelled at 64.1
Don't forget ColdSteel my guy. Their ht is also one of the best.
@davidgarrett5671 also interesting if you watch the Spyderco vid KC released yesterday Eric even talks about using the Mule team and how all the feedback on their 1st heat treat was that it wasn't performing, so they tweaked their process to get their Magnacut right. So that's 3 large knife companies that increased the hrc on their magnacut due to the lack of performance at softer heat treat. If Spyderco agrees with me on the optimal heat treat for Magnacut I suppose that's good enough. Maybe you and other dude can start telling Eric Gleaser how wrong he is for not thinking softer steel is ok.
@@arrowheadguys7637 i did watch it but he talked about tweaking the heat treat but he didn’t say anything about people saying it was too soft and people complaining about it. And Spyderco doesn’t give the HRC so how would people know?
Oh, man. Spyderco and Boker are going to get all my money this year. That new Slydercoating sounds badass.
it's the same knife every year 🤣🤣
I carried a PM2 through 3 tours and still going strong GOAT!
Bros…can you imagine if all companies were as excited and proud of their products as spyderco…not a huge “sprint” fan but man are they doing a great job.
Yall, that salt para 3 is one of the most anticipated knives in the last 5 years. I'm happy as hell
My lc200n Pacific Salt goes surfing with me 2-5 times a week and I never rinse it off. It litterally goes from the wetsuit to the trunk to the pants pocket. No rust.
Were you expecting otherwise?
@@sheltermonkey6065 no but it's nice to have confirmed expectations.
I have the LC200n Salt and I love it. Ocean water pool water no rust holds a good edge and sharpens easy also. I don’t really like H1 H2 steel.
The Pac Salt is my favorite "do it all" knife and I have many many salts. I can't wait for the Pac Salt Magnacut to come out. I'm probably getting the Paramilitart in yellow/black and will be re-shaping the tip just like the Pac Salt. I love it.
@@kennethkuhlman8864 Why do you have many, many Salts?
Eric Glesser is an absolute Class Act. He sincerely cares. (And he makes damn good knives as well!)
Cant wait for the Bodacious, cant get my hands on it fast enough. I have said many times a Manix 2 with no choil just full blade might be an almost perfect knife for me. Heres hoping more no choil Spydercos are on the way.
It’s been a few years since I’ve had much want for new Spyderco’s, but I’m a sucker for the Salt series.
Love how nerdy Eric explains all the details 🤓
Just an interesting conversation between two knowledgeable guys! More please!
Para 2 Salt is on my list
Man, a Native Chief in magnacut is going to be THE travel/outdoors knife for me.
I love the vibe of this.. booth?
If this is their show display I love them for that. So casual. Shit just piled up behind him on the counter.
no that is a private office they have built into their gigantic display, we do the same for our trade shows.
You’re such a great interviewer and you make the video so enjoyable and make your guest comfortable. Don’t stop brother. It puts a smile on my face watching these.
I've always liked Eric's enthusiasm. 👍
SPYDERCO using new exotic and sexy super steels while BUCK has decided to go with 7CR......I remember when if your knife wasn't a buck, it was crap.
Exactly. When I heard 7cr I rolled over in my grave
Buck has ALWAYS been crap.
@@Skinnymoose in the late 70s , there was no better knife than the Buck 110 and their lifetime warranty was awesome !
This guy has said "lubricity" more in the last week than all mankind now and forever put together.
Show after show, year in and year out, I will continue to praise DCA for being the pro he is. He’s always up on his homework before the table showing but also always seems to know the questions the true knife enthusiasts will want answered. Not to mention he brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. It’s always look forward to seeing you sit down with folks like Eric who also are looking to go deep weeds exploring!
Eric gets excited talking about steels/grind/peel-ply etc. It's great! For some reason, that Bodacious is one of the best looking knives. I can not wait to put it into rotation.
Thank you Dr. Thomas and CPM for magnacut. Still cant wait to pick up a magnacut spyderco.
Came back to make sure i wasnt dreaming about a manix 2 in cruwear
Love me s Spiderco! Amazing review
If you've seen one Spyderco, you've seen them all.
agreed lol, it's the same knife in different colors hahahah
Love Spyderco! My favorite 2? Lil Native Slipit and Native 5 Salt.
If you own one Spyderco you pretty much own them all.
How much longer until preorders for PM2 salt in Magnacut begin to become available?
🤙🏼 I own a Spyderco Rockjumper & Smallfly2! You all make some amazing knives. I really like the sandwich construction vs some of my favorite Benchmades that I carry, plus the bidirectional frn scales are my absolute favorite & a must have. Also having the pocket clip end where yall put the logo, is a fantastic move!!
Yaaaayyyy now I can have ANOTHER PM2, just in a different steel that I will never use!
DCA and Eric, we need a spydie nesmuk! GET ON IT!
High performance steels and proper heat treats are what set Spyderco apart from everyone else. Very few of their models actually fit my hands and preferences because I can't for the life of me understand the point of a finger choil on any but the smallest knives, but the Bodacious looks great, apart from the flat scales, which are uncomfortable. Hopefully, it will come out in more interesting steels.
I love my spydercos, and ya know I love my delica n Manix 2 but sometimes I wish we could see more models w/ out FFG
Excited for the cruwear and the new coating technology coming down the pipeline very cool
Great guy, i would love a lil native with magnacut and more colour variaty with magnacut (salt yellow/green is very specific)
Got my answer for lc200n vs magnacut on the salt series. I knew i could count on you guys !
One of the best knives on the market is Spyderco, I also have a copy
But it lacks the glass breaker on the end and the seat belt cutting function, which is now standard equipment on all knives
God save anyone who gets cut with a Spyderco, it's an extremely sharp,made a very nasty wound
I am not so keen on folders due to all the negatives compared to fixed, but this was an interesting watch. Great duo chemistry.
Spyderco making me go broke 😂
It was either someone from knife center or blade hq that has stated the dlc has more lubricity than without a coating... So now I hear that it's not..... The hell
Ordered a Manix back in October.... still hasn't been shipped.
I’m a Benchmade person, but I’m starting to get into Spyderco.
Is all metal hardware in the PM2 Salt also made of Magnacut (since it's claimed to be corrosion resistant), or is it just the blade? That would also help with preventing any form of galvanic corrosion in seawater... Also, is the coating material in the hardware (particularly in the Black version) also DLC? Thanks in advance.
when does the para 3 magnacut officially drop?
It's always fun to listen to you both. I'm most exited about the new salt versions.
Hallo from Germany please Tell me the Name from the second knife . Thank you
Spyderco, Eric - why not use the new coatings name to highlight the greater lubricity? LFC - 'Low Friction Coating'
Spyderco always delivers with a solid presentation. The presenters from WE/Civivi don't even know the names of their knives half the time. 😅
Spyderco literally keeps running with the same knives with different steels "This is the Manix 2 with", "This is the PM 2 with", "This is the Shaman with", "This is the Police with", "This is the Delica with", This is the Salt with". We/Civivi actually works with in-house and outside knife designers & companies. I'd imagine getting a few names wrong or materials.
Eric looks more like his dad every time I see him.
He starting to look kinda like cross between Obi-Wan Kenobi/Master Qui Gon. 😀
Any chance of a cruwear with g10?
Do we have an idea when the regular size Manix 2 in Cruwear is going to drop?
I don’t think even the dealers know. I’d guess within the next 2 months
I really appreciate Spyderco because they know what their doing in terms of steels heat treatment blade geometry locking mechanism but a bit more creativity? their knives look all the same and not everybody is interested or can afford to buy super steel knives and you go from a steel wonder to 8cr with basically nothing in between. Why can't we have a reasonably priced Spyderco in 14c28n for us common folks for instance?
Is the bodacious ever going to drop ? Seems like it takes a long time. Lol
Bodacious 🤲
No tatical edc fixed blades....wtf
definitely not a fan of finger choils, spyderco pls make Endura 4 XL!! thx.
Watch out knife center, spyderco is gonna steal DCA from you lol
The Bodacious is going to dominate my future Spyderco buys. Years ago I sketched out my own Spyderco idea and this knife is shockingly similar to my sketch, it's about as close as I'll ever get to having my own Spyderco collaboration knife.
I’m glad Spyderco sticks to their roots. If only Benchmade would do the same and stop focusing on overpriced, plastic knives
Spyderco, please make the UKPK in Magnacut with the new coating!
The best steels, the best heat treats, and the worst esthetic of any production company. The steel still balances them out on the positive side though.
Eric, if you offer the Bodcious in 3V, AEB-L, Z-Tuff, 14C28N, or LC200N,you can charge me whatever you'd like and I'll buy it. If you offer it in K390, K890, 4V, or Cru-Wear, I'll still most likely buy it. Magnacut would be okay, but AEB-L is about the best knife steel ever made (regardless of how old it is.)
Derpy derp. I'm an inbred duck.
Spyderco
The PM 2 salt is basically a magnacut PM2.......Eric robbed me ......again!
Hey Eric,
...Magnacut Tanto, hawbill or Wharncliff PM3?
(*Wink wink, nudge nudge*)
Spyderco is the Glock of knives. Good quality, nothing amazing, And always trying to make a big deal out of hardly changing anything. 95% of their knives are too tall when folded and take up so much space in your pocket. I have a Para 3, Shaman, and Cannis and they are fine, but Protech, Microtech, Benchmade, Medford, etc. all doing a much better job
Second third fourth
Most boring company to date nowadays. Zero innovation whatsoever and luring customers in by a simple supply chain tactic. You literally know when spyderco is going to drop something new is when a certain model sits on the shelf for so long. That way they can say "hey we have enough stock of this, time to slab a new steel on the cutter and order a new color plastic or g10!" to whip up a frenzy in all the collectors that just have to have the newest thing. They do nothing except recycling the same stuff over and over again with a new flavor or sprint run that nobody uses because nobody will know when it's going to drop again. The bording little funko pops of the knife community just driving people to collect more and nobody actually uses.
First
No Audio :(
The Bodacious could be THE Spyderco 😍
it has aspects that are MORE attractive than the shaman to me!
@@thumperstick I think that might have been what they were going for 👍
I really want the Native 5 to get the Bodacious treatment. That would probably replace the TRM Neutron as my favorite carry.
A choil-less native 5 would be fantastic.
I just want a compression lock Native 5!
Always appreciate his view on steels. Spyderco isn’t my fav as far as aesthetics go, but his take is always appreciated. Thanks!
I have always hated the aesthetics and found the hole dumb, got myself a delica 4 and I love it, besides two things :
1:the closed profile is awful and the hole makes it unnecessarily "wide" (or tall I guess).
2: the pocket clip is so damn ugly and sucks, I run mine loose in the back pocket and the thinness and lightweight natureof the knife makes it real easy.
It slices awesome, is so easy to resharpen and has huge fidget factor.
The year is 2142, fans are lined up at the Spyderco booth at SHOT Show to see the much anticipated release of the PM2 in S3017V steel and NanoTech scales.
Spyderco and Pro Tech my favorite knife brands.
Yes! Finally the Manix 2 XL with Cru Wear.
Definitely wants me some magnacut in the para 3 with carbon fiber scales. Come on Eric! Make it happen 😁
GIVE US A BODACIOUS AND A SHAMAN IN K390... PLEASE!!!!!!! SO excited to hear Cruwear is coming "across the board" that's so awesome.
I am local to Benchmade, and spyderco has completely converted me.
Really looking into getting one of those black PM2s, and I'm happy I came across this product reveal with Eric as he mentioned they're working on moving to a new and better version of the black coating on those blades by the end of the year. So I guess that will be my Christmas gift ;)
Love the bodacious, the polished G10 is money.
Give me pm3 digicam blacked out cruware in the new coating non limited! I’ll wait until the end of the year! God bless!
His jacket matched that pm2 nicely.
Eric, will you guys ever do a VANAX sprint run? Maybe a Manix 2 or Native 5?
I've been looking forward to the Lil Native lightweight for a while, and I'm glad they took their time with it. It really seems like they took the time to do it right.
For a second i thought he said that you're manix might have machine marks on it and i was like... 😭 Why. But he said that the one in his hand had machine marks and ours won't😂
Dear mom in heaven, when will i see the PM3 CruCarta I put a deposit on many months ago?
Yellow -= Magnacut... Ugh.
How about other colors = Magnacut, as well...
The frn is a little to gaudy for me, but the g10 looks nice. I'm excited to see that pattern get spread to other knives.
@@Freakmaster480not to mention. It’s plastic.
@@tristandavid2343 I don't care that it's plastic. Frn is more than strong and durable enough for the knives they use it on. I actually tend to appreciate the more lightweight nature on larger knives (think stretch 2). I just dislike particularly gaudy colors. If it was a little more subdued I wouldn't have an issuez
He showed the black Para Military 2 in MagnaCut.
@@sheltermonkey6065 I was referring to the FRN models. 😔
This is one of the best interviews I've seen from Shot Show this year. The expertise, enthusiasm, and joy over these knives is contagious.
I'm convinced to buy my first Spyderco this year. TY!
The myto blade shape looks just like the spyopera
I want to see them coat the CruWear
We love Spyderco.!
Definitely picking up that manix 2 xl in that cru carta setup.
I just want the bodacious because there's no nub to hit your finger like the shaman does.
No mention of manix2 lw 15v?
Bright yellow G10 with magnacut... that would rock
Bodacious reminds me of the Bob Lum Chinese Folder with its form factor. But damn expensive. Spyderco is crawling up to Benchmade and getting more and mire unappealing to me.
I love the Caribbean, in my opinion one of the most underrated Spiders. So I need to have the Magna PM2 in some way or the other.
I love new and shiny stuff, but, the older I get I appreciate more simple stuff. Spyderco nails it on the hat with that. You don't need to but out thousands of designs to the market. Stick to your own thing and pull it threw. Have a few models and perfect them. Spyderco knives are definitely tools and they focus on that
