Re: UKPK SALT SERRATED IN MAGNACUT !! (It's about time !! )

I wonder if they will offer the G10 salt UKPK in SE.

No doubt the design is awesome.

Re: SAFE QUEENS !!!

Guilty as charged. I have several. Cruwear Military and Caly 3 and 3.5 Superblue are at the top. Several more.

I keep using my Endura 4 ZDP-189 as my main carry and H1 Manbug for office and shorts.

Re: Christmas Jester

Aogami Superblue or White steel would be preferable. Second HAP40.

Still waiting for a Native 5 in K390. Seems obvious, but then again they are busy.

Re: Sal, how far behind is the hp Delica project ?

Glad to hear the project is still alive. Sharpened my Superblue Delica yesterday. It has a thinner grind that I appreciate.

Re: Destroyed Pants

I went to a Manbug for office carry. Many to choose from. The Manbug salt became number 1.

Re: What is the best steel for retaining high sharpness?

Not sure if ZDP-189 is appropriate. I do find when it gets sharp, it is so aggressively sharp with all those carbides, but it the way it breaks down is impressive.

Re: What is the best steel for retaining high sharpness?

I hope we see a Native 5 in 52100. I have the Military 52100 sprint and the steel and heat treat are ideal for maintaining a fine edge. Perhaps it may happen if 52100 remains available in sheet form for Spyderco.

Re: I said I bought my last knife but I was wrong

The OP may find that Pacific Salt will find its way into the pocket and more use than intended. Light weight and simple to maintain, easy edge touch ups. A good cutting tool.

Endura ZDP-189 for most everything. Manbug SE in H1 if I don’t carry the Endura.

Re: “Little knife for a week” challenge.

I guess this is easy for me. Manbug salt has been a constant companion. I use it more than any other knife.

Re: Gayle Bradley - 5 Year review

I have a GB1 that has become my main edc. Not sure why I let it rest for so long. Exceptional cutting tool and my best folder. This includes some CRK’s, the GB1 is just made to cut.

Re: K390 discontinuations?

I am puzzled by the lack of a K390 Native 5. Waiting for the 15V, but K390 in a Native 5 has been on the want list for some time.
