That is also caused by bad sharpening technique. Isn't Spydercos fault.
Well, I'd agree but it would be nice to be able to get away with it.

You deal with it. Spyderco can't afford to? That is a bunch of BS.
Haha, microbevels the name of the game ehh?Well, I'd agree but it would be nice to be able to get away with it.

Very True.Indeed but sorta wanna rebevel when the micro stops being so micro.
You guys are so blindly in love with Spyderco you get mad someone even asks the question?
Spyderco has a lot of models, and most of those models have sprint runs, and many sprint runs come in more than one variety, and they have knives made in four countries (that I know of)... You can see it could get a bit cumbersome logistics wise. And you can't offer it for just a few models.You guys are so blindly in love with Spyderco you get mad someone even asks the question?
Seems reasonable enough to me, keep a few blanks on hand? For their most popular models at least. Otherwise not being user/factory serviceable or repairable it is a disposable knife...which is okay if you know that, it just is what it is.

FWIW, under the same circumstances (a blade that failed due to a defect in material) Spyderco would replace the knife, if possible, or issue you a factory store credit for it's original MSRP if it was no longer available.I believe it's 25.00 non-coated 35.00 coated per blade. Not that it matters anyway. They determined mine was not broken from abuse, as it was broke along a serration on the Rukus, and hence even after EDC'ing everyday for 2.5 years creating metal fatuige along a stress riser, it finally snapping was somehow covered. I offered to pay but in no way threatened or otherwise twisted anyone's arm. Yes this is a silly post, and I am on the search for a unique Para Mili 2. Which will be my second Spyderco knife. The last one purchased was over a decade ago. Hence my prowling the Spyderco arena. (what kind of post was this?) LOL!
There are no preconditions to getting your knife rebladed by Benchmade. If you broke it prying, they'll still replace it - at the aforementioned cost, of course.FWIW, under the same circumstances (a blade that failed due to a defect in material) Spyderco would replace the knife, if possible, or issue you a factory store credit for it's original MSRP if it was no longer available.
That may be, but I was addressing the specific issue of free replacement under warranty, not the ability to purchase a new blade.There are no preconditions to getting your knife rebladed by Benchmade. If you broke it prying, they'll still replace it - at the aforementioned cost, of course.

Hi CBurris,
Sorry for your disappointment.
As has been mentioned, the high number of variations along with constantly improving our products makes it difficult to have and provide new blades for the many possibilities. Some companies carry unchanged models for a long time and this simplifies changes. A new military blade won't fit into a 10 year old Military due to the many refinements we make over the years.
Hi Pry,
Our knives are mass produced. Quite a bit different than to take a used knife apart and try to fit a new blade. Labor costs alone would be more than replacing the knife even if we did have the "old" parts.
