Made food with PM2 S45VN.

@Wartstein: To be honest, I cannot explain it. The Tenacious s35vn, for sure, is a good knife. But it does not blast me off my seat like a Delica Wharncliffe K390. "Missing the spirit" may describe my feeling. :) This I actually can fully understand! :open-grin For me too there are those ...

I absolutely agree to @zuludelta.
Imho, too, saving some more money for a premium spyderco makes more sence.

I agree with @Skywalker.

For the price of a premium steel Tenacious, e.g. a Delica Wharncliffe k390 can be obtained.

May I ask: For what reasons? Cause I have to say: The two Tenaciouses I had were of better quality / fit and finish than most of my Seki knives (which are perfectly fine already too, don't get me wrong) Two is of course not a representative sample though. Of course you may ask. I always carry a key...

My first Spydercos were a Tenacious and a Grasshopper. They are good knives. But since I bought Spydies from Seki and Colorado, I never went back to the Chinese ones.

I would say "sorry" for my last posts in this thread. I was in a bad mood + some beer. Of course, everyone should have his personal opinion wether a SAK is usefull or not. It was not my intention to provokate. Sorry, again.

You're clearly outnumbered here with your thoughts on the SAK. At this point...silence is golden bud A SAK may be better than nothing. But a really good thing is better than a thing that can multiple things, but all bad. Even many experienced SAK fans say, that in the end the best SAK is that Alox ...

I don't understand why so many people love the so called multi-tools like victorinox. Who needs such nonsense like can-opener, mini wood-saw, trashy mini-scissors, and so on..? All you need today is a good little knife like a manbug or even a small opinel. We don't live in 1920 anymore. Everybody's...

Don't know where you live and work. But where I live, it's not the duty of an employee, to bring their own (crappy) tools for work. A companys chief has to equip his workers with good tools. Can't understand the other arguments, too... the squeezer has zero grip and the the toothpick is just crap. T...

I would never ever buy s knife on "toxing green".

When I first started playing with Spydercos, I wasn't interested in the back lock. I had used them from other manufacturers, and none were any good. Eventually I tried a Spyderco back lock, and my opinion changed. They were truly one-handed operation without unnatural contortions, and they did what...

Well I lasted 21 seconds. Between the ambient noise and the camera not being focused that was enough to form an opinion.

You are right about the ambience and the focus. But on the other hand you cannot expect a professionall video which is provided for free.

I had luck... my German knives online dealer reserved me a Delica 4 wharncliffe k390. Should arrive in some days. :)

I know it's a rhetorical question, and I agree with your post! The definition of professional is someone who makes his profession at something. BBB, Larrin, and Sal are examples of knife/steel professionals. Salespeople are not knife/steel professionals, they are sales professionals. If the discipl...

I don't know how you guys have the patience to spend the time watching amateur ^ videos like that. They just plod. Kudos if you have the patience to do it. I don't have the attention span, I guess. This guy doesn't interest me honestly. More interesting could be your arguementation, why that guy is...

And what you think about this:

As far, as I remember I did never say that. I'm pretty sure that never in history someone had to completing a knife-needing-task and failed because he had "only" BD1N, S30V, or similar insead of k390. Nobody NEEDS it, but some WANT. This was my trigger: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&...
