Spyderco Police

[Xjr5rjX]

Fuck the Police...... good knife though

[steveazusa]

hey im bidding on one just like that...you mentioned the cutting edge im guessing since its under 4" its legal to carry in california, i been stopped with my crkt 14sfg tanto and the blade is under 4" and its legal so im guessing its legal for the spyderco

[BleedingBullets4U]

I paid $119.95 for mine in 1994 now you can buy it for $112.95

[Ni83co]

got mine today its fast and scharp, aldo the chinook 3 came in scharper.it has a realy nice grip and desing, i dont find it verry heavy, its more for display, but it is like it melts in my hands.

[Ni83co]

thnx for the reviuw i watcht it, along whit some outher ours is one of the best .just orded it realy nice knive, i think i would use it that much it more for display.

[sappet102]

i bought one of these form a pawn shop for $4! it is in amazing shape too. i love it

[ArcheWhatzitGonnaB3]

Awww Shit man...I read that these things are over $100 ir somethin like that...I got mine in mint condition for free, I actually got it outta a storage container for bout $30 but yea there was lots of other "usefull" stuff in there along with even more pricey knives...too bad it's missing the spring that holds the blade out/in...think I might just try and sell mine

[vpsaline]

are you getting the Ti military?

[chexard]

there's a dog passed through at 3:19

[RADFCW]

Put some skateboard grip tape on the handle and your GTG.

[marcooooo75]

I have a police from 1998, it's just about the same. For me it's to unsafe to use. If in a stressfull situation and sweaty hands I would probadly not even could open the blade!!!

Beautiful do!!!

[macjmillsx]

Yup not suitable to high stress deployment or retention in the hand... Gorgeous though.

[BleedingBullets4U]

@macjmillsx Your wrong

[xsv75]

@marcooooo75 -get the police 3 with g10 handles, awesome knife

[xsv75]

is it worth getting the civilian or stick with the police3 for self defense????

[marcooooo75]

@xsv75 for self defense I would get a Glock!!!

[xsv75]

@marcooooo75 -i would too but that wasn't my question

[marcooooo75]

@xsv75 In the place I live (Potugal) I can't have a blade just for self defense. That is why I dont use my police any more! I use an EDC blade like the tenacious, even so it´s hard to explain what kind of use!!! For me self defense with a knife is second nature! just chose the one that is most appealing to you!

[tengc]

I have this knife. It's a really great looking knife. Like you said, it's great for a collection. The steel is questionable, though. The tip of mine chipped when I dropped it on the floor. Also, the knife isn't that great for fighting because you may end up cutting yourself when you thrust unless you modify your grip by capping.

[thewarrior1989]

steel is not questionable VG10 is a proven blade steel dont drop your knives harder blade steels will chip used inapropriately

[tengc]

So you're saying my Spyderco C07P is brittle? Because I intentionally drop knives to test them. I've dropped Gerbers and also other cheaper knives and they did not chip... I'm just curious why my Spyderco C07P chipped.

[tengc]

@thewarrior1989 BTW, the steel on my police is ATS 54 or 55. I got mine in the 90s. I think the steel was different then.

[thewarrior1989]

@tengc ats 55 is also way harder than gerber steels and will chip rather than bend

also trust me when i say the failure was your fault not the knives, dont drop them.

[tengc]

@tengc Yeah, I should not drop them. I just wanted to let you know it was ATS55. Would you know why they changed steels?

[TheEnglishRedneck45]

@tengc Just a heads up man - you responded to yourself on here, so the dude you were asking about why they changed steels won't know you've asked.

[tengc]

@TheEnglishRedneck45 hahaha. Oh yeah. :) Clicked the wrong button. Thanks, dude :)

[thewarrior1989]

gerber uses softer steel the softer steel will handle more shock thus not chip. vg10 is harder and chips. hardness helps keep the edge longer but the con is it can chip the police isnt brittle it just isnt meant to be used in a way it wasnt designed for like dropping. do not drop knives ever not to test not on accident. a police dosent have to be tested its a proven design Feel free to PM me With questions and i hope you understand im not knocking you just trying to be helpful :]

[0bsidianos]

@tengc

+ you pay alot for this knife. I'n my country its like € 160,99

[Dingleberry66]

i have one, sharp as fuck.

[macjmillsx]

I dig the swedge too.

[Dingleberry66]

mine is full serrated tho, the cops in LA use them. ive seen them in their pockets

[ttlyADDICTED2BASS]

does the blade lock into place?

[macjmillsx]

Yes, it's a lockback knife.

[a7madramadan]

Actually it has a PERFECT lock BUT it is WAY Heavy knife to put on EDC

[m6nny901]

for an edc knife do u recomend fully non serrated or partially serrated?

[macjmillsx]

This is kinda a personal preference sorta thing. For me, I think a properly sharpened plain edge will function every bit as good as a serrated edge, and it's easier to sharpen and maintain. A serrated edge will excel in cutting rope or heavy cloth, but I don't prefer it if I have a choice.

[Wintermute01001]

What a beautiful piece.

[macjmillsx]

It is a striking blade, just hard to keep all the fingerprints at bay ; )

[Zakuabumi13]

how did u get non-serrated i can only find part serrated

[macjmillsx]

I traded for this knife so I got what was offered to me, but I think if you look on Spyderco's website you should be able to order with a choice of plain edge or serrated. Also, the new model has a grippy G10 handle instead of steel, a huge plus!

[1999AudiAvant]

thebladeshop . com

[masteroffajitas]

No, it's a knife that YOU consider to be to heavy for EDC, fuckers watchin too much nutnfancy....

[chrisw40]

I think you can get the police in G10 now witch is cool i just got the military

[macjmillsx]

I love the G10 handled police, but they went to a flat grind with no swedge... I really like the hollow grind with the swedge on the the old style. If they made that blade with the G10 handle I'd buy it right now.

[KKKowboy]

Love that knife. From holding it I found it would also be effective as a fistload when closed.

[macjmillsx]

The length of the handle makes and effective non-lethal improvised impact weapon, although the all metal construction my present grip issues with sweaty or damp hands.

[mongomondomongo]

It just seems too similar to the G10 Endura and costs about the same too.

C'mon Spyderco make some new stuff. How about a framelock Military or something?

[macjmillsx]

I think it has more reach than an Endura though. A large framelock spydie would be awesome!

[macjmillsx]

The G-10 makes it a much better option to carry with you, but I wish they kept that hollow grind with the swedge.

[sharpy002]

i love the police especially in g-10, great vid.
