My recently dyed straight spine.
Very nice! Looks kind of blue-grey?

Blast from the past! I carried this yesterday. It's the first Spyderco that I ever purchased, the first real quality pocket knife I ever purchased. It was probably 25 years ago that I got this beauty. It's seen tons of use, and care.

Re: form follows function

Hi Sal, On the question of a 2 blade version- one plain and one guthook- Around 2001 I purchased a Buck Crosslock that was built that way. I used it on a few moose while living in Alaska.

Re: Detent tuning

I know that this thread is fairly old, but I was researching a weak detent issue with my Caribbean. It's not brand new, but new to me.
