I like the Liner Lock just because of the unique sound and feel when opening/locking. BUT my Millie and Chinese Folder are the most 'blade-play' knives i have. they are fun to open, but the 'users' are all lock-backs
i know i'm not alone in this...

I guess the intent is a Marling Spike? Or just something to stab things? Both are cool by me.

I was trying very hard to keep my Cent4 in good as condition as possible, as it was a gift and is rather 'gentlemanly', but i beat it up pretty good while i waited for the rest of his family to get back from their spa holiday to the factory (CO).

I dinged to dickens out of the clip, and when i ...

I wish the Assist 2 had the same 'bells n whistles' as the Assist 1. I would love to have the full fledged blade (Ass2) with the glass breaker, that would make it a candidate for EDC....

Um, so I just noticed that the Assist 2 is no longer around ( :spyder: .com catalog)...was i sleeping?

I'm thinking to vote the Remote Release (attached to a belt loop, between right front pocket and gig-line): it always seemed to be more of a worker to me. Always provided with ultimate access (gravity assited), when one-handed operatation is essential, and body contortion seems to affect access less ...

I guess the factor i consider is the ease of manufacturing a modular product: the idea that the only difference between the Delica 4 trainer, SE, PE, CE, Waved is the mixture to color the FRN, therefore cheaper to make.

I am pretty sure Spyderco considers these things because my Centofante 4 ...

Well, I did feel a little 'shot-down' and I got defensive, but i daydream about being able to swap blades/handles whimsically, and get pretty excited when i see blade/handle variations with a screw pivot pin.

Delica/Endura 4 handle queries

I know there are plenty poeple out there that own both the knife and the trainer, so are the handles the same except for the color? And with them having pivot screws, not pivot pins, could you have a Red handled Delica/Endura 4?

Next question: do you guys think the Waved models will be ...
