Thank you all for the advise and replies! This knife's diet will be a steady supply of cardboards, uv ties, nast packing tape ect. as suggested I will most likely look at a ffg delica and endura and decide if having a bigger handle/blade will be worth the extra blade width. I guess either will be an...

In my experience, full flat ground slices great. As such, FFG is my preferred grind. If I were you, I'd grab the Delica, but I'd also recommend any of the Value folders (Resilience, Tenacious, Persistence, and Ambitious), as they all are great utility blades, and all are FFG. And an added bonus is ...

My delica 4 went out for some last minute shopping, which was useful since I actually got to in hand side by side it with a mainx2 lwt and native lwt.
Tomorrow will definitely be my dfly2 salt.

thinking of a

Native of some sort

FFG Endura or Strech or Pacific Salt

Kiwi 4 or Tasman

I am coming to really despair the lack of walk in knife stores in my area. the big chains will carry d4/e4, dfly, lesser extent natives. most 'tactical' store will only carry other brands :(

new spyder owner and first time poster here, hello all to the OP, I just recently purchased dragonfly 2 salt w/ the yellow FRN and SE blade. I wasn't 100% sold on the Dragonfly size but I wanted to try the H1 steel, but after a sold month and a half of EDC it has completely won me over. The size of ...
