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.
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
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)
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
I love Spyderco and this App! The features such as a wish list and knife tracker are top notch! I also love the TSA tracker, nothing worse than having a pocket knife that has to be thrown away because you forgot to remove it and store it. The app also makes shopping easy.
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!
This application is groundbreaking for a knife company!! Spyderco hats off to you guy !! If anyone is starting to get into the knife community this app is a must!! It offers tons of information that you will need and can reference later !!
Much like their knives, Spyderco has produced another top quality product. This app has everything needed for a true Spyderco lover to enjoy, with an easy-to-use interface.
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!
What a great idea for a knife company. And even better, it's really well done. Easy to navigate, useful features. A must have app for any knife enthusiast.
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.
Spyderco is known for a history of pioneering pocket-friendly features on knives, and now there’s another brand-new innovation to add to your pocket with the Spyderco mobile app. The app puts the entire catalog of current products in the palm of your hand, allowing you to access product photos, information and tech specs from your mobile device. Going well beyond the catalog experience, the Spyderco app offers numerous exciting features and functionality including: Wish List & My Collection The My Collection feature allows you to easily keep track of all the Spyderco products you own in one simple list. For those grail knives you haven’t been able to get your hands on, add them to your Wish List so they never slip through your fingers. Interactive Steel Chart Take a deeper dive into your favorite steels with the interactive steel chart. This feature allows you to see the composition of each steel type used in Spyderco knives, and a tap on the individual elements offers additional information about the properties they bring to the steel. Heads-Up Alerts When you everyday carry (EDC) a pocketknife, it’s easy to forget it can’t go everywhere with you. The Heads-Up Alerts feature will help make sure you never lose a knife again by providing a notification when you’re approaching an area that may have knife restrictions. Currently users can expect notifications for approximately 200 of the busiest airports in the United States. Notification Center Get all of the latest Spyderco news as soon as it happens with the app’s Notification Center. Whether it’s an announcement about an upcoming show, the release of a New Product Reveal or an exclusive interview, real-time notifications ensure app users will be among the very first to know. Trademark Round Hole™ Menu Spyderco users are used to being able to open their knives one handed, and the app is no exception. The Trademark Round Hole at the bottom of the screen can be tapped or swiped upward to reveal the full menu of features. This can even be configured for left-handed or right-handed users in the app’s settings.
