The wire clip is absolutely my favorite style of pocket clip. I wish Spyderco or a third party maker would make them available for all Spyderco's knives.

@HeWhoIsWhoHeIs 2 года назад

I've had very bad luck with wire clips on the past (not Spyderco) what makes these clips better than others ?

@willgodwin02 2 года назад

@@HeWhoIsWhoHeIs deep carry, discrete, no hot spots, and doesn’t add a lot of weight to the knife that isn’t completely necessary, but the other spyderco clips aren’t bad either

@jonathanwatson268 3 года назад

I feel like the community has underrated BD1N based on BD1. From what I've seen it has edge retention very close to S30V and our Spyderco kitchen knives in BD1N don't have a speck of rust despite my wife leaving crud on them constantly. I've been impressed so far, especially for the price point.

Spyderco's pocket clip game is the only part of their line I have any issue with at all. Not all their knives appeal to me, but I can appreciate the quality and innovation of them anyway. I'm with you on the Sage 5 and/or Native 5 in Maxamet AND a compression lock...SOLD!!!

@matusknives 3 года назад

I am 100% in the same camp - Spyderco should definitely bring Sage 5 is some cooler steels. And once we are at it - Para 3 in a little tougher steels than Maxamet (say Cruwear or Rex45) and micarta (like the upcoming PM2).

@MrDarrylR Год назад

Blade thickness: Para 3: 0.145"/3.7mm, Native: 5 0.125"/3.2mm, Sage: 0.118"/3.0mm, Chaparral: 0.079"/2.0mm (no Maxamet, only XHP). Personally, I think the Para 3 is a bit overbuilt for EDC, and don't like how blade spine dictates thumb position. The Native 5 and Sage are closer to the sweet spot, but the Chaparral may have an edge on Native 5 and Sage in S30V. My ideal Spyderco Frankenstein monster would be a Sage 5 in contoured micarta with a Native 5 blade in MagnaCut. But I'll make do with the Sage 2 that's served me well for 10 years.

@millybadison767 Год назад

Having both I can’t choose. I think I’d have to go with the sage1 so fluid!!!!!!

@AdamSmith-ys2vk 3 года назад

I really wish the Sage 5 LW was more popular so you could find aftermarket scales like you can with the Para 3. Also, I totally agree on that G-10 S45VN version, just shut up and take my money.

@tima7662 3 года назад

Spyderco wire clip is way better than their standard one. Doesn't matter, I replace all my Spyderco pocket clips with Lynch Northwest Clips. The fit and finish of the Taichung, Taiwan Spyderco's are slightly better than Golden, CO. Still both great knives. Prefer the compression lock over the liner lock but the liner lock on the Sage is excellent. Too me it's an easy answer-----I'll take both!!! Love my Spyderco's!

@prenticegoodwin3522 3 года назад

I hope the sage is still in stock in 2 weeks when I get paid. I want a maxamet blade so bad.

@nmnate 3 года назад

Speaking of which, I need to take apart my shaman for a cleaning. Can't remain slick forever, I guess. You missed the inset liners (P3) versus flush liners (S1), looks like the sage 5 LW is inset as well. Probably in the "I don't care" category? I can't say I've ever really noticed a huge difference in feel. :)

@GLOCKsh00ter24 3 года назад

The movements aren’t trivial, the one movement close on the para 3 is the reason I bought it vs the sage 1

@eyesintheskies Год назад

In my opinion the blade shape of the sage makes more sense than the thin tipped para3 but then again I’m sulking cos I snapped mine, just wish they’d stonewashed the sages blade, looks so much better especially once the metal gains a patina

@sethking3 2 года назад

Sage 5 cpm m4. My favorite pocket knife at moment

@roadracerqx893 Год назад

Was looking at a Maxamet Sage, but don’t want the liner lock. To get the comp lock Sage, you have to take FRN. Para 3 wins…and I found a LNIB G10/Maxamet for $145 😎

@infidel24 2 года назад

I just ordered the sage 1 in maxamet. My big question for spyderco is, why not cerakote the blades to keep them from changing color? I had the para 3, carried it once. The blade started taking color all over in less than 2 month's. I live in sw PA, it rains a lot, but I've never even gotten that knife wet. So I'll try the sage in maxamet and hope for a better result.

@jewmoneyatgmail Год назад

A lot People out there like the patina that forms over time on non stainless tool steels

@fredp1983 7 месяцев назад

Its not a trivial thing whatsoever... its actually a very big deciding factor for many people... that is one of the main things that must be ticked for me...I love the Chaparral and everything about it... but the fact that it has a back lock is what is keeping me from getting one... Its so frustrating because the size and shape and thinness of the handle and blade especially would be perfect with a compression lock... so you can open and close smoothly with one hand...

@rmpj13 2 года назад

My edc is the sage 5 LW. No question the best edc of my collection.

@DimitrosSJ 2 года назад

Good helpful review. I was deciding betwin these two and now I'm with sage for sure, cause I already have pm2 and manix. But! Man, what was that - "senen point 2 inches" -? What? Decemal with inches? Man, go METRIC. Those inches, feets, Fahrenheit with pounds and ounces are rediculous nowadays, in 2 words - uncovinient, outdated.

@willtrax71 3 года назад

2 great EDC options but Paramilitary 100% over the Sage, the Para is assembled in the States and that should be a deciding factor if you are on the fence. Semper Fidelis

@metal_complex 3 года назад

I think it's great to buy knives from the US if you live here. It's also not my only deciding factor. Sorry, I'm gonna stand by my decision in this video.

Out of the two, which blade finish do you prefer on the Maxamet?

@Abby_Normal_1969 3 года назад

Wow. This is interesting. I really like Maxamet. But I like the Sage more than the Para3. But, having said that, I much prefer the compression lock to the liner lock. My Kobayashi Maru solution (kudos to anybody who gets the reference) is to get the Maxamet version and the lightweight Sage and switch the blade; bam, Sage5 lightweight in Maxamet.

@sunnyrachelsson3169 3 года назад

Get a sage 2 and put a maxamet blade on that and that would be perfection

@plainscrafter5374 3 года назад

I will continue to prefer the Sage line over the Para 3 because the Para is fugly. As far as the standard Sage 5 goes, I bought bit when it first came out, I it was well under $160. I find the access to the compression lock a bit small, so the liner lock version is more comfortable even with the extra movement.

@jaredmouret9723 Год назад

Nice video, I've always been a fan of the pm2, not really the pm3 due to it not having the exact same blade profile as the pm2, I personally wish it was exactly scaled down, I realize the difference is minimal. However, you did make me take a look at the sage, so I took a stroll over to bladehq just to find out I can't get exactly what I want (sage 5 g10/maxamet) and to my disappointment it's not made, for the price I'm not spending what they're asking for s30v nothing against it, but I feel it's played out and there are much better steels. The sage 1 would be the ticket but I don't want the liner lock. I really don't like that these knives sport Taiwan on them either.

After I wrote this I realized you covered the combinations lol
