SE Atlantic Salt and PE Salt 1. I love these one-piece FRN handles with the barrel clip - such simple, elegant, robust designs. These knives each only have 12 total components. Reminds me of a Sebenza! 😜

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?

Was there lock rock after that? This one came from the factory with a little more lock rock than Seki City backlocks typically have, but it hasn't gotten any worse. It still feels solid enough and isn't really noticeable in use. The lockbar sits a little high when the lock is engaged and if anythin...

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?

https://i.ibb.co/S7kHZ5K/20230321-131102-2.jpg broke down a few 5 gallon buckets with the SE K390 endela today. It could still roughly take hair off my arm afterwards and had no visible edge deformation. I'm running out of unnecessary things to try and cut with this ridiculously capable steel/edge ...

Re: Have you found "the one?"

Unsurprisingly, I'd have to go with the Endura 3. (also lumping in the Pac Salt 1 because I use them interchangeably and IMO they're essentially different versions of the same knife). My first spyderco back in the day was a Delica 3, and I fell in love with the neutral handle shape, volcano grip tex...

K390 police - probably the knife I've carried the most over the past 2 years or so.

Re: Spyderco clip locations are actually very well thought out

I fully agree. I fortunately don't have to worry at all about how "discreet" a knife is in my pocket, so a deep carry clip just makes it a little harder to actually take out and use. I much prefer a standard clip that (a) has more handle sticking out of the pocket to grab, and (b) leaves t...

Re: Question about native 5 in fluted carbon

https://ibb.co/vBFnkrW https://ibb.co/3NSKV0Y Here are the holes on mine as well. I would agree that the chipping/deformation around the holes is probably just an effect of the difficulty in drilling through carbon fiber. Your model looks completely legit, and in my experience the chipping/deformati...
