Re: Pictures of Delica 4 and Salt 2 handle thickness.

The Salt 2 handle is better. Lighter but thicker...I notice it more in hand than in photos. They should all be linerless. :) The Salt 2 handle is probably a test for a revised Delica 5. I mean, what are the liners even here for on a Delica ? Outside of adding a point of rust, making it slightly hea...

Re: Any new Wharncliffe Delica Flavors in the works?

Yeah...I bought two of those from Cutlery Shoppe and then put the blades in the Salt 2 handles. Best knives I have ever owned for my uses. They're all sold out now, I believe.

Re: Endela (-sized "middle ground" knife) in the "Pac Salt family"?!

On the linerless Salt knives, such as the Salt 2 and the PAC Salt 2 knives, I like the D4/E4 handles. However, I wouldn’t mind seeing them ‘solid’ on the inside (like the D3/E3 handles were), without the ‘waffle pattern’ (I forget the word) that reduces the weight. It would be slightly heavier, but...

Re: Endela (-sized "middle ground" knife) in the "Pac Salt family"?!

I don’t think it’s an illusion. This is why many of us, myself included, like the old PacSalt handle over the newer one. A bit more ‘compact’ and slightly easier to carry.

Re: Wharncliffe Salt Coming Soon (in LC200N)?

I am convinced that Spyderco is delaying the release of the Salt 2 in LC200N (and the Wharncliffe variation). They know everyone wants these versions more than the Pacific Salt. So they release the Pac Salt because they know people will buy it out of curiosity and then also buy the smaller, more po...

Re: Have you owned a Spyderco lockback with zero play?

Yes. This is easy...Native 5s are all rock solid in my experience (so are others, but Natives are very consistent in this regard)

But I'm not waiting for the first run of this new Pac Salt, I'm waiting for the Salt 2..
Interested in these early reports none the less.

Exactly...that's why they released the Pac Salt first. If they released the Salt 2 first, the Pac Salt would not sell as well.
Just a theory... :D

I just got mine today in plain edge. I love it. It's a homerun as far as I am concerned...however...

Sal, any plans to do a salt version? I think a serrated H1 version and a plain edge LC200N would appeal to a LOT of people.
