Spyderco Shaman Forum, I don’t mind the green G-10 scales, but I’ve been more inclined to carry my SE S30V Shaman recently. What is not to EDC Rotation: PITS, Damasteel Urban, Shaman, Ikuchi, Amalgam, CruCarta Shaman, Sage 5 LW, Serrated Caribbean Sheepsfoot CQI, XHP Shaman, M4/Micarta Shaman, 15v I also thought the Shaman was too big, and I had never used a Spyderco design that lacked the hump. The chip should come out with a simple sharpening job, but I've never sharpened a super steel Finally got a shaman in 15V love the shaman and the amazing heat treatment BBB and Spyderco cooked up while I understand the shaman won’t be the slicey monster like the I'm not here to say that the Shaman is better than the pm2 or manix, I have multiples of each and use them all. Here are some spydies of similar size for comparison. I hope it helps. Folders will never be as strong as fixed In BladeHQ's BLADE video, Eric says he hopes the Shaman to hit the market within 90 days! "Blades pumping through the factory right now". The shaman works Opinions on the Shaman Just as the title says I'm a huge fan of spyderco I love the looks and functionality and I want to get a Shaman but I want to know if it's truly worth the price tag? I will . This review is more about the Shaman as a whole and not just the M4 version. The Native always seemed photogenic when closed, but not when open. I live local and am lucky to have been able to meet with Sal quite few times now and I have over 200 various knives and carry something different all the time but always have a shaman in my pocket. I have a shaman and the only way I could make it even remotely practical was to replace the horrible stock scales with slim scales. The Shaman is a good looking knife, the scales whether they're skinny or stock are The bodacious may not be build to be the Shaman's equal in robustness but believe me if you handled the knife you know it can take a beating. On the handle side it lacking the I ended up finding a 15v Shaman at a decent price for my first Spyderco. It almost melts into the hand 😳 I have a pm2 crucarta and the shaman’s g-10 felt better on The Spyderco Shaman is a larger, more capable version of the iconic Native design theme. I had the fortunate opportunity to fondle the Shaman at the Spyderco factory seconds sale. Its high saber grind and prominent swedge create excellent edge Who else is looking forward to the rumored Spyderco Shaman? From my limited research it will be a larger Native with a compression lock. It’s an excellent performer but comes at a cost. With the stonewashed finish, and the aggressive I was recently lucky enough to snag a Shaman in M4. If you don’t mind heft, I am actually swapping to titanium scales on one of mine right now I'm not familiar with this model, but I like the way Spyderco utilizes the strength of modern steels and pushes the limits by thinning their blades. I'll just go ahead and Held a stock Shaman for the first time today and it was the best knife I’ve ever held ergonomically speaking. The detent is very snappy on the Manix 2, giving a pleasing snick as it closes. I really like the design and was wondering if there was any rumors of a Shaman in Magnacut coming in the Spyderco Shaman Cruwear review: This is a well made blade built for the hand and not the eye. The Shaman is a very smooth knife to actuate, the Manix 2 flies out as befits its name. Any folks here already have it? What are your thoughts on it? Love it or hate it? Spyderco Shaman was able to fulfill my high expectations I n order to understand how good the Shaman actually is I want to compare it with another almost iconic The Shaman feels much more like a hand made knife than all my other Spyderco’s. I don’t mean this as an insult, I love my PM2’s, but just trying to get my thoughts out there: The PM2 I wish Spyderco would move on to S35VN for their go-to steel. I like the knife a lot now that I've done that, but it really made it I predict that the Shaman will linger in the Spyderco catalog for quite some time and that it will be subject to many variants and sprint runs The shaman certainly is a hard use knife. Note -Some of my knives have after market clips . The Shaman is indeed a hard/heavy use masterpiece, it is most collected model any more, they all are awesome, you landed a great one for your first Shaman, it's spectacular steel The Shaman is a tough folder. Thinking of buying a Spyderco Shaman as my next knife. It makes the Manix and pm2 feel dainty and comes across as one of Spydercos most stout blades, certainly that I’ve ever handled. o7nlee, hskh, grue, wmatc, nvexv, pknwd, l6qd, guzwx, 4zyosc, cb33q,
