Oh the agony and heartbreak of ruining a beloved knife while trying modifications that require professional skills!

Fit and finish are excellent. Detent is on the stiff side but I much prefer that to a weak one- should break in with time. I n...

I would take 6 H1 Pac Salt SE with the yellow scales. Honestly the only knife I’d ever really need and I do own two already.

I think I’ve sold about 7 Spydies by now, but honestly haven’t really been tempted to buy any back. I’ve certainly held on to about 5 times as many as I’ve sold haha.

Geometry cuts as they say. Try stacking up a serrated Delica (2.5mm) against the serrated Para 3 (3.7mm) and you might be amazed again. Spyderedges have a smaller inclusive edge angle vs factory plain edge.

What is this steel known for? Having trouble finding reviews online. Larrin talks about blue super but I don’t know if that’s the same as super blue. It’s known for being easy to sharpen and taking a keen edge, but also for mediocre edge retention and poor corrosion resistance. Used often in chef’s...

Pac Salt 2 LC200N plain edge. This is a beater with lock rock that nevertheless has an excellent blade and steel- I dyed the scales black. I keep it in the door compartment and use it for whatever. I also have a Hultafors in SK5 in the toolkit.

Cool! Nice to see it being used as designed- I’m sure it’ll serve that soldier well.

Ooh ooh Endura next please! What a cool color and steel, loving my Dragonfly it hasn’t left my pocket. Heck yeah. Then I could say I have a pair of the classic Spyderco designs in Superblue and Supergold. I have a Supergold Endura too! It’s actually a particularly good example and a really cool kni...

You can maintain K390 and M4 just fine on a Sharpmaker. K390 is not known for being prone to chipping- in fact I’ve seen Shawn from BBB do some impressive things with it, such as batoning through coins without damage. If you need a steel that can cut carpet and cardboard and scrape labels off glass...

Nice!!! Any chance of a comparison shot with a larger folder, like the Stretch, Shaman, or PM2? I’m a little worried that the handle will be too small for me. Here ya go. Manix XL, Stretch XL, Military all kinda dwarf this thing handle-wise. Blade-wise however, I feel the cutting edge is pretty com...

I believe it actually has a longer cutting edge than any of these big folders- hence the compact firepower. Like a Glock 26.

Cough cough... Endura...
Coughing with you....
Must be contagious, now I'm coughing!

Must be something going around… developing quite the cough myself haha. An Endura in SB would be an instant buy for me.

Got mine today. My first impression is: compact powerhouse! The blade:handle ratio is quite satisfying, the balance is good, the geometry seems very useful for a small fixed blade, the sheath of course is excellent. This is a winner in my book. If you’re looking for a fixed blade to wear inside the ...

I believe your suspicions are correct and that this knife is not in an “untouched from factory” state.
