Spyderco Forums

I emailed a well known retailer a couple weeks ago about Dodo availability. Last night, I received a email saying they received 2, and one of them had my name on it if I was still interested. It's in the mail today....

My box says C10SBK Endura 11/3/03, and Lightweight in small lettering below the date.

The label is yellow.

It is a all pinned construction, unlike the Endura 4 I have.

Been carrying a Chinook II the last couple days. There is an Endura 4, a BM 950 Rift, and a BM 5000 in the rotation as well.

Here is another picture. I don't think I am capable of taking a better one.

The area in between the jimping shows lots of tool marks. I wonder, if it is a second, if that is why. You can kind of see it in the pic.

Tell me what you think

I will post one in the morning. Thanks for the response.

I picked up a Chinook II from a seller on another forum. It arrived today, and I am not very happy.

A Side from the dirty scales, the action of the knife is terrible. It opens fine, but it won't close by itself like all the Spydercos I have had or handled You have to actually push it closed. Upon ...
