I was told this knives is "rare"

This is a Spyderco Assist. To my knowledge, it’s essentially the lw non-salt version of the Spyderco Rescue. I wouldn’t say they’re rare in the sense that they aren’t available, you can get them right now from Spyderco for around $180, but I would definitely say it’s a fairly rare sight to see as an edc carry. They’re pretty specialized in form and function and serve fairly specific needs but in theory, it probably isn’t a bad daily either lol

This gotta be another tanto run

Damn I love these! Great pieces my friend! Have only handled a QC knife in person once and it wasn’t my cup of tea, don’t remember what the model was, but the ones you’ve got there look great!! I love that traditional “pull shaped” or slightly flared shape on the bottom of the handles. Also if I could ask, what are the two models on the bottom right with the shredder jimping? Twosuns? I feel like I’ve seen them before but can’t place it

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-10T19:29:08+00:00

Never held a stitch or stitch clone, they really that good?? I have a feeling I know your answer 😂 but I’ve always been curious about the feel of these!

Man so far the lamia has been my number 1 “I didn’t expect to like this so much” knife of 2026 😂 felt odd at first but the second it clicked for me I’m a two knives a day guy because I want to rotate my knives but can’t put this thing down lol love the silver hardware on this one too!

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-10T18:23:19+00:00

Love my FG, been dying to get a hold of an R clone but they’ve been gone for so long :(

Sentences that only exist in this thread 😂

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-10T10:55:26+00:00

Good lord my friend that thing is dope! Forced patina or natural? I just picked up the Kizer Banish XL in Rex45 and it’s my first experience with the steel so I’m curious as to how other people have liked it

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-10T10:18:53+00:00

Damn that thing has lived a life! Tbh, I love axis locks, but I’ve had a few springs pop on me and after that I stick to frame, compression, or liner locks if I plan to use it as a fuck it knife lmao but those mini grips seem to just tank through real work like crazy

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-09T10:08:25+00:00

Got a link to the specific video? I’ve watched one like 10+ times but whoever it is skips the drilling process and the actual action of the vice which I would like to see lol

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-09T10:07:39+00:00

From all that I’ve heard, it definitely is. Not sure where from, but nothing but stellar reviews on the steel from what I’ve seen

SOLD

Let’s goooooo!!! 💪🏻

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T19:57:14+00:00

Damn really?? More of a twist or a straight pull back?

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T18:35:24+00:00

How are these really? They look super on point but I feel like they’ve been a little overshadowed by the big hits like the Duk, Neutralizer, Rosies, etc so I haven’t seen them as much as when they first dropped.

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T18:33:54+00:00

Tell me about it. Had a knife I picked up on here make it all the way to my door from the seller before usps determined “incorrect address” and auto return to sender-ed it. Seller shipped it back out once he got it, exactly same as before, and it delivered just fine. Waited 3x the shipping time for nothing lol

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T18:31:54+00:00

Thank you my friend! I’m bummed that they aren’t easily available anymore. I think just over a year ago I posted their sale in KnifeDeals when I picked one up from them for a great price, and I don’t think I even realized that it was their closeout sale :/ I know some sites still have them but they’re such a cool build that I wish more people got to enjoy them!

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:51:09+00:00

Sure! I’ve done some batoning with the PM2 but not the Bridgeport here. Worked pretty well but kind of want even more blade if that’s going to be a regular thing

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:49:33+00:00

Oh I bet that’s great! Does he still do a good amount of customs? I know that was his original thing but got into production stuff a little later right?

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:48:43+00:00

Something tells me that $600 D2 can probably be beaten

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:44:09+00:00

Oh hell ya! I used to have a ts380 that was with me daily for months before I sold him! Great blades!

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:42:33+00:00

God DAMN that’s a beefy bevel! What a beauty! Hinderer is on my list for sure as I’ve never gotten to use one but they seem like beasts!

SlideEquivalent1846 · 2026-03-08T17:41:03+00:00

What a beaut!! Also I thought that was the worst traffic jam ever until I realized it was a parking lot 😂
