Acquired a lightly used Schempp Rock from a fellow afi. It arrived today and I put it to work right away.

Is this from Derek's?

Yes.

The Salt 2 wharnie is also my favorite variant with Delica DNA. It's a handy and capable knife for use around the yard. It's easy to clean and easy to sharpen after use.

Spydiechef helped with some chores in the yard.

Welcome to the forum.

The combo edge Endura was my first Spyderco.

I have a handful of Cold Steel knives. My favorite is the FinnWolf because I find its lock the easiest to operate. I'm an older dude with reduced hand strength, and I need two hands to use the lock on my American Lawman and Ultimate Hunter. Oddly, I find the lock on the Code 4 easier to use as well....

Domino

Cat

I'd be in for a Micronin.

Something similar in size to a Bradford Guardian 3 would be good. Or maybe an Enuff with a more pointy tip. The Swick could be an already available alternative, though it has a totally different feel to the Ronin.

Chinook 4

I like my Southard. Wish I had also gotten the one with brown G10 when I had a chance.

Manix 2 LW Salt

It's just the lighting. It's hard to find an angle where the writing on the blade is visible.

Trying out the Spyderco Cat, from the other maker in Taiwan.

It's a good alternative if you're looking for something a bit larger than a Dragonfly. The teflon washers make the action feel sluggish though, but they seem to be getting smoother with more open/close cycles.

Manix 2 Salt

Received mine today. No lock stick. CBBL is very easy to operate.
