Not good for new release's of exclusives

I got this app to be able to see when exclusives get released but only shows them sometimes and then the same ones show for months. Not helpful at all.

Automatic?

Got the app in hopes of being able to search for automatic knives. Don’t waste your time. It’s censored.

Extremely disappointing

This app is extremely disappointing. It looks like it was thrown together. There’s red arrows on top of white text, no sense of context, no obvious menu button, no search autocompletion (don’t you know the names of your own products?)

The app also has an identity crisis. Why does this exist? Why is this worse than your own website?

Searching for products is confusing and annoying. Why do I have to know the internal model number of your knives? Why do I have to look up my blade hq order to find the exact model number that I purchased so that I can add the correct one to my collection?

Seriously, have you ever tried using your own app? It’s garbage. Either start over from scratch or just give up.

Ridiculous app

Shows several knives and nothing worth investigating. They show the knives they wanna display.

Years old ads.

Why do companies release crap like this and never update the information. Entirely useless

App needs major repair

Great idea, but the app is horribly flawed. Strangely many many models are missing or can’t be searched for directly but you might find them by browsing. Nice idea to allow you to make a virtual collection of knives you own but basic models and colors are not findable. Strange that they wouldn’t fix this? The only thing worse or more difficult to use from Spyderco is their website. Really, really bad. The app is a step up in functionality over the website. I hope they fix this app as it has some really clever and nice user interface moments, and specs of knives your considering for purchase are quickly researchable (if the search reveals it)

Trash

The app notifications need work, missed my second release of the year because of being notified two days after its release.

Wish it worked right all the time

Not sure what’s going on with the app and since there’s no option in the app to actually submit bugs. Top of the page on the Home Screen is showing an exclusive but the moment you actually click on it brings you to a page about an event that ended 4 months ago

Best Knives

Spyderco knives are the best knives I have ever owned. Best steel. I have had my delica 4 by my side for almost a decade!

Great Reference Tool

Wow, how did I not see this app prior to this week? What a great app! I love all the details that are included. It is a great reference. The interface is slick, and I like all the info in the Edge U Cation section. Very impressive. Oh, and great knives by the way. I love each of my Spyderco knives. The knives that I have from a certain other company just don’t seem to have the same quality standards. Thank you for making great products and standing behind them. Cheers.

It’s alright

This is a good app, it’s even a great app. However, it’s essentially just a digital catalogue for the current lineup at the time and that’s basically it. I think that the app would greatly improve if spyderco would gear parts of it more towards collectors. For example, they give you a wishlist and a “my collection” tab that you can put knives that you own or that you want in. The issue is this: as I stated, it only provides the catalogue for the current production lineup. So any knives that I own that have been discontinued, most sprint runs, all exclusives. None of these past models are represented on the app. Therefore I am not capable of cataloguing an accurate list of my collection and I am not capable of cataloguing an accurate list of what I’m still looking for. Most of my collection is discontinued and many of the knives I want are as well. Some of them are even still available but they are exclusives so they were never shown on the app or the site to begin with. I think that if this app had a full, comprehensive gallery of all knives produced by spyderco, at least the modern era of spyderco if nothing else so that collectors could more adequately keep up with their collections, it would make this app much more desirable to fans as well as more useful, because as it stands, there is absolutely nothing this app can do that a simple google search or a look in the paper catalogue can’t

A cool app

I like that my most favorite knife brand has made their own app, with all of their products. Under normal circumstances, I would have placed a five star, but what I wish were to happen would be to be able to buy the products that you see, because sometimes, those products may not be on your normal shopping site, but really, this a brilliant app, and I hope the app improves later on.

Unusable!

The app covers over 1/2 of the screen, blocking the content, making it unusable! Worked fine in the past, but no more. Favorites list and My Collection listings are specificTo a device. There should be a way to make them work across devices!

Great knives, poor app

Just an awful interface that is difficult to navigate. Not much information except for current models. A bit too focused on just sales and not offering much more for the Spyderco collectors.

Decent

No way to order from app or log into your account

App doesn’t work

Title says it all, only the home screen works everything else comes up blank.

My Collection

Just started using the app today. By far my favorite features are My Collection & Wish List. To have a list of what you own and the info about it is great. I know the app is brand new, so hopefully there is a planned path to add previous models so I can keep a list of all my Spyderco knives and the unique info about each one.

Neat, but...

This app is neat and has a lot of potential but it is lacking a lot of products. I can’t make a collection because the database is missing several models. Please include all model variations as well as discontinued models. It would be fun to look back and see the products that were available back in time.

Lots of potential, need a key upgrade or two

Cool idea for an app. I really like the informative nature. But I would like sprint run and exclusive versions to be included. There are so many variants of popular models that aren’t currently in the app. It would also be cool if the production quantities for those limited variants were noted. Another upgrade might be “collaborations coming soon” section where you can throw out teasers on what is in the works and with whom.

The hero we didn’t know we needed

This is an awesome little addition to spydercos brand. Everything is informative and well done, even down to flipping open a knife to open the menu. It’s worth the read!
