Re: Native Chief Lightweight!!!

I tested mine and it does have some snag on the pocket. I never noticed before because it's so light that I just carry it loose in my pocket.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?

Chicago Knife Works is very legit. It's my understanding that a quite a few on-line retailers ship product from a company in Marion, VA called Blue Ridge Knives. They are a knife Wholesaler/Distributor.

Re: How many Spyderco Knives did you buy in 2023?

28. Lots of Black Friday, map holiday, and opfocus. Retail perhaps 4. I filled half of my collection in 2023. Retiring this year so purchases will be far and few between. So I have been told!

too small for me, but I can't say why :rainbow

But I have similar feelings towards the Pacific Salt, which is largely an upsized Delica.

Simple, lightweight, low maintenance and big enough for most tasks I encounter during the day.

Re: did somebody say magnacut manix...?!

Received my Manix 2 LW Salt last night and it's perfect. Of the 5 Manix versions I have now including 1 XL SNK 4V, the all Black stock CTSBD1N LW had the worst lock stick for quite some time and initially turned me off to the lock design. It finally broke in. 3 others are really good and the SNK LW ...
