New Spyderco Reverse Fixed Blade

[sadmin]

With input by both Douglas and Janich, this is one of the best things Ive seen come out of SHOT.

I currently carry a PMoore BOB but have been eyeballing a Tang blade as the BOBs handle is a little small in the palm, but this MSRP has me sold.

There look to be a ton of new knives coming out this year, and I like a lot of them

I am looking forward to picking one of these up. I have a Clinch Pick and trainer, and was delighted to hear about this project.

And the MSRP is not bad, either.

While I am not a huge fan of reverse blades, I am a huge fan of cheap blade sets with trainers.

I don't see anything about a trainer mentioned anywhere?

I feel like the pikal style reverse blade thing is overblown. Most regular knives can be held in pikal position but also offer all the regular forward grips.

Unless I am looking at it wrong, the top blade looks dull with no sharp blade.

I agree with you here. I do like the extended handle on these as opposed to the egg shape of the clinch pick. It's also nice for me since I cringe at the price tags on some of other knives that are essentially for poking holes in someone's face. I don't care about high quality steel for this role. You have some damn fine knives though Sir, I always look forward to your FS threads.

They are both live blades. They are trying to show that the grips may be reversed by the user for a forward grip if so desired.
