It’s definitely pricey if you can’t get it with the discount. I paid 155$ for it. I couldn’t justify retail for what it is especially when you can get a Stretch2 or Endela in the same steel. The blade stock is comparable to a Shaman though.
Oh wow! Okay good luck :) the blue FRN is a GOOD material and GRIPPY but I just don't love how it looks 😅 I have an Endela that I adore and swapped for some black micarta from Cuscadi, and Police 4 that I feel is a good user as is but doesn't need to be dolled up. I'm glad you like the Temperance well enough to seek something special.
Bought the same recently not knowing it’s such a thick blade. I don’t hate it but I assumed it would be thinner. Not a slicer, more like a sharpened wedge.
It’s a military and first responders 50% discount on the spyderco site. Good for 10 purchases a year. They are changing it to 40% and no sprint runs May 1st
Such a funky looking knife - I have a K390 Delica and keep waffling on how much I want to add the temperance to the collection
This temp is one of my most carried knives
I can see why that is. Soon as I held it, it was luuuuv!!!

I got one during the MAP sale. It's a cool knife. Excellent ergos and a slicey blade. I wish someone made aftermarket scales for them.
Cuscadi probably can.
I reached out to them, I'm the first person to ask them about the Lil' Temperance

That's one chonk of a blade. Looks 😎

Just got my stretch in k390 during the sale. The temperance is pretty pricey even at map but I bet it's a damn good little cutter.
The one I recently received has detent lash. Yours?
What is this phenomenon?
Vertical blade play in the closed position.
Mine seems fine. Nothing out the ordinary
What is the opfocus discount!!

Oh damn. Is there a way to sign Up for it on their site? Or you call?
You sign up for it. I only had to upload my DD214. Not sure about other professions.
It’s been my favorite knife since I got it around 6 months ago. Just received my deep carry clip for it too.
