Spyderco byte May 2023 - The Golden Stone™/Webfoot®™ Set Now Shipping Spyderco is proud to announce that the set containing both the Golden Stone and Webfoot sharpeners (308FCBN) is in stock and now shipping. Both these sharpeners feature a unique design that provides a perfect 40-degree included angle (20 degrees per side) when tilted from side to side.

The Webfoot’s aggressive 600-mesh Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) abrasive removes steel quickly and is ideal for reprofiling edges or sharpening very dull knives to a utility edge. For touch ups or to achieve a more refined edge after using the Webfoot, the Golden Stone...

Understanding Equivalent and Comparable Blade Steels Blade steel is a complex and often overwhelming topic. For knife enthusiasts trying to understand the performance differences they might expect from the myriad of knife steels out there, it can be a steep and frustrating learning curve. One way of flattening that curve—at least a little bit—is to understand that many steels can be accurately compared to other steels. In fact, in some cases, two or more steels with different names can be the exact same material. By learning to group steels into comparable families and identifying equivalent or near-equivalent steels, you can make sense of the “alphabet soup” of blade steels much more easily. Steel Comparisons One of the most...

Spyderco byte March 2023 - EDGE-U-CATION® - Choosing a Knife Choosing a Knife Choosing a knife can be a daunting process.

Spyderco byte March 2023 - LIL' NATIVE® C230GPWC - LIL' NATIVE® Wharncliffe MSRP: $220.00 ORIGIN: USA Spyderco has a long, proud tradition of producing “little big knives”—compact, easy-to-carry folding knives that cut with authority far beyond their size. Some of our earliest designs like the Executive™ and Co-Pilot™ pioneered the concept, but the now-classic Dragonfly™ helped perfect it by introducing the 50/50 index-finger choil—the secret to allowing a small knife to fit comfortably in hands of all sizes. Over the years, we have added various other models to the “little big knife” family, but few have earned as devoted a following as the Lil’ Native. Inspired by the fifth-generation expression of the iconic Native®, the...
