Don't use red loktite. If you catch clip on something and bend it you will never be able to remove it to bend it back. Use alcohol and clean screws and holes then use blue loktite. I have never had a clip come off this way.

I was fooling around with Kydex one day and made a neck sheath for my Delica with the blade open to carry while hunting. My thought was if I fell out of my treestand and was hanging I could cut myself down without the fumble factor. If I was in a situation where I did not want to carry it open I cou...

I have several Goddards starting back from the beginning. I think the Goddard was the first FRN to have the reversible clip like the Endura 3 has(had). One of my favorite things about the Goddard is that unlike the Endura 3 it has its own integral guard in the handle. I really don't understand what ...

Handles can stay the same, don't really want any liners, I do like the durability of the three screw clip though!

Here in Ohio deer gun season is one week long. When I was growing up deer hunting was kinda just starting here so people were reluctant to buy a knife for one week. Most people just used the folding type knives they already had as general purpose knives. Buck 110,112 etc. My first was a Buck 110 fol...

Ditto on size issue, the Cara Cara is too big for my dad. The G-10 is also a bit heavy unless you are a dedicated knife person or outdoorsman. If size is not a problem might I suggest the FRN Cara Cara, it is much like the Endura 4 and a good deal lighter than the G-10 Cara Cara.

If it was in PE I would buy 4. One for each daughter , one for me to keep in my collection, and one as an investment. If they were SE or 50/50 probably wouldn't get them for the daughters. ( I already have two of the "blue" looks lavender to them, delicas for them)

I see my favorite is sadly lacking in support. Although I always carry two and would have to lose one to only have one........Endura 4.

I agree. I am carrying mine now and have every day since I got it. Think I will have to get one in 50/50 too so my PE is not lonesome.

I didn't have time to read through all of the answers and someone may have already said this. As a user/collector it seems that 5-10 years down the road I am always looking for a "collector" that is the same as my "user" that I have been using. Sometimes you can find an unused kn...
