WE FINALLY DID IT! SPYDERCO AMERICAN MADE GREATNESS/EDC POCKET DUMP!

[@Knife_guy]

Don’t forget we also support American Moms and Beer!! I think some companies are taking notice and making the right steps. Spyderco just had a leg up cuz they have always had their radar on steel developments and have been passionate about it. It’s damn near impossible to buy everything American made. We do what we can when we can.

[@revolvermaster4939]

Yeah, one of my favorite knives is a USA made 1954 bone handled Case Folding Hunter that I inherited from my grandfather. It’s reasonably high quality (still cleaning game after 71 years) but has more sentimental value to me.

Oh nice!!!!

[@LastChanceKnives]

We live in the best time there ever was for quality knives! The choices today are fantastic. BTW I just had a dewar delivered today. There is a welding supply 5 minutes from my house that carries LN2. I have some Magnacut, Cruwear, and AEB-L on the way! Watch out in a month or 2!

[@Edcreviewer]

I bought the aebl mule when it first dropped about a year and a half ago and as I said that's the best aebl I've ever used be it custom heat treat or not. That thing is done unbelievably well. The performance is beyond what I expected aebl to be capable of composition wise. For 80 dollars that thing performs.

Afternoon Erica, how are you doing? First off? I agree with you. I had gotten several pieces or panels of the museum. Leather and I wasn’t a fan of it as well trying to use my edging tool on it trying to punch stamps on it. I just wasn’t a fan looked great, but I had tried it and I felt the same way as well. Next the 15 V I just got mine just the other day And I agree with you. It is super super sticky, razor sharp on the edge and I can’t wait to start getting it in my pocket. Anyways, just thought I’d let you know that I’m gonna plug back in and watch the rest of the video. Blessings, Erica, and by the way, one of your wallets is gonna be in my future, not too far down the road.

Spyderco knives rock. I have quite a few Benchmade Gold box knives as well as Chris Reeves, Shirogirov, and Marfione customs. The PM3 CPM S110v in Blurple has more pocket time than any of the others except for my Sebenza 21 large Tanto. I guess that depends on mood and environment.

Every time I watch you I learn more about my hobby and also how much I still don’t know. You are an excellent representative for this community, and I support you completely. I also want to support US products. I’m a proud veteran and believe in this country’s potential for greatness. I also see how we can fall flat and suffer because of our own failings. Like you I don’t have a lot of disposable income. I’m disabled, so I rely on saving my Pennie’s and gifts from family to grow my collection. I also find delayed gratification to be enjoyable. Good thing, eh? All that said, I do own a lot of Chinese made knives, because I wanted to have them. Civivi makes some fun, interesting knives like the Hid and the Sendy which I just bought with Christmas gift cards. But I really want some rex121 and some 15v, so I’ve put in my 2025 requests with my long suffering, but lovely wife and we’ll see what happens. If I can swing an American product over China I will, but I think (sorry if this is controversial) that competition makes us better. Some of our guys have gotten sloppy and expensive, but you show us where we’re shining and I think that will drive the dollars over to those companies like spiderco and the scrawny lumberjack who are really rocking it. You are the real diamond in the rough here, and I’m glad to see people appreciating you. You deserve the attention. I hope you get many more knives for review and testing. My sharpening has improved significantly because of your information, so thanks for sharing.❤

Hi Erika, I follow you very willingly and I am interested in the topics you discuss about your experience in daily use. I agree across the board, this 15v is spectacular (like the rex121). I am Italian and on the first go around Spyderco 15v with pm2, manix2 and shaman I was unable to buy even one. Today instead I own a pm3 lightweight that I find fantastic for its lightness and steel quality. Spyderco, strong of this success, should use it on other models (re-propose it on pm2, manix2 and shaman) such as sage 5, endura, endela and why not I would like it on the kapara. Do you think they will ever do it in the future? Greetings and congratulations on the channel.

[@Er0S3nnin]

I'm happy Spyderco reduce their practice for limited runs with a few hundreds and they are gone in like 2-3 minutes when dropped. Now the LW Para 3 lasted quite some time, rex 121 will be permanent in the catalogue, hopefully and the 15v will follow. Corporate greed pump the prices, in Europe the energy cost are crazy, the salary might be a bit lower than some places in the states, but the energy quickly make it more expensive and we say it is normal to be expensive as it is USA made, while forget that European brands they have to import Crucible and Carpenter steels and pay taxes and transport.

LOL @ "crustier than your mother" 😆. My mom wants you to know that she's "crispy"...not "crusty" lol. Maybe with these crazy hard steels you could just do some sort of follow up addendum video like a few weeks after your initial knife review when the knife finally needs to be sharpened. A good problem to have tho, right?! It's so awesome that the USA made fixed blades and folders you've been showing are of such high quality! Politics aside, I don't have anything against Chinese made stuff whatsoever, and think that they're capable of doing some incredible machining work (i.e. high end Swiss Made luxury wrist watch brands like Rolex and Omega have been sourcing parts from China on the DL for years now) and the Jack Wolf knives speak for themselves with just how precise and well made they are. Beijing's physical infrastructure is probably 50 years ahead of ours, etc, etc. That being said, I will ALWAYS spend my $$$ on quality knives and gear that is made in the USA over anything from China. You know my everyday carry, E!!...a GEC, NGMCo pry bar, my Grip and an AG hoodie on my head lol. I carry and use these things because they're actually the BEST quality things to use in their respective categories!!! The fact that they were made by skilled craftsmen in the USA is just that red, white and blue icing on the cake!!! And that makes me feel extremely proud!!! 🇺🇸. Yet another great video, Erica!!! 🧡🧡🧡

great eaxample is kizer and their rex45 between 60-61 hrc :/ why?? what's the point? its simply stupid, you could use aus8 instead on the same hardness :D makes no sense using rex45 at such low hrc

[@ericasedc]

Not gonna mention names. Big YT reviewer has a knife done in China. K390. Only 62.5HRC… no point.

[@Naptosis]

​@@ericasedcThere is a point to that; unfortunately that point is cost saving. 😔

[@plynch113]

My collection is over 75 knives. I will never need to sharpen any for the rest of my life with a constant rotation.....

[@ericasedc]

Good point!

[@jjjoooojjj]

But when you have to sharpen them all again you would rather die : )

I’m pretty sure Sal from Spyderco knows who you are. He was a fan of the deer leg video. Edit, actually it was the rex 121 sage 5 review I just checked the thread (forum post)

[@ericasedc]

@@nandayane he doesn’t know me. My channel’s way too small.

[@nandayane]

@ The thread with your review of the rex 121 sage 5 is on page 2 of the spyderco forums if you don’t believe me. Unless someone else has his account he’s definitely aware you exist and likes your work. I’ll bump it to page 1 later today.

[@nandayane]

@ Oh ok, Spyderco has forum on it’s website. Kind of like bladeforums but about spyderco knives, it’s a platform for Sal to get direct feedback from customers. A lot of prominent people in industry and the community are regulars there. Sal, Larrin, and Shawn are all pretty regular posters on it.

Unless you are talking about Benchmade. More money you give them...the greedier they get. I can't support companies like GEC not because I don't want to, I just can't because I can't find them to buy without having to pay more than the retail price. With that said, I find Spyderco the only company that actually sells quality knives without ripping people off.

[@ericasedc]

Spyderco is the best🎉

[@ttattx]

I agree about Benchmade knives and their beloved “butterfly tax” which wouldn’t be so infuriating if they didnt also make such dramatic reductions to quality- fit and finish are poor, the grinds are trash. However… Spyderco Shaman 6 years ago was 150 bucks - took right off on launch and quickly pushed the price to $180. For the basic variant. Today they are 250 plus. There’s no justification for it. No reasonable one anyway. I still buy them tho and will only buy ones made in Golden. I love the smock but I won’t buy it.

@ I hear ya

[@greypant7204]

Spyderco is only way to go if u actually treat knive as a tool not a toy to look at 😉

[@Overlooked1]

I like knives but when you start talking 150 dollars for it , I would hope you wouldn't need to sharpen it, and it would cut for a very long time ..... a month is impressive, and steel is getting better, but prices, imo still have a way to go. Good video

[@mikehouser7587]

I think the knife community is growing in general and demand drives the price. If I am a knife company that can produce 100 knifes a month (material type excluded) and selling them for $50 each I can make a fair profit but I get 300 orders and can’t fill 200 orders. I raise my price to $200 and I get 100 orders which is what I can make my price is $200. Simple example but draws the picture. ✌️🙏🇺🇸

[@Overlooked1]

@mikehouser7587 Yeah, that makes a lot of sense
