Since has deemed MagnaCut Salt-worthy, I wonder if, after they have resolved the lock issues, they might switch the Siren over to MagnaCut?
Maybe they could also switch the handle over to yellow or orange?

Siren in MagnaCut?
I don't get people who only carry one knife
Re: Siren in MagnaCut?
I'd like to read Gringo's experience with MagnaCut first...
Re: Siren in MagnaCut?
The problem of the Siren’s lock—on mine particularly, even if only hinted—is of more immediate interest to me.

I'd be all for a CQI Siren in MagnaCut!

Re: Siren in MagnaCut?
I have a MagnaCut mule arriving here soon and I plan to do some extensive saltwater and corrosion testing on it. I was as surprised as anyone to see the Native Salt in MagnaCut. Spyderco takes their Salt line pretty seriously and I’m pretty sure they would not have just slapped a MagnaCut blade in there without doing a lot of testing and seeing solid results.
I cannot speak to Spyderco’s plans but if I’m happy with the steel’s performance I would be willing to commission a large exclusive of both the Siren and the Waterway using MagnaCut. Handle material, color and texture would be open for discussion. I don’t know yet what I think of the steel and I don’t think Spyderco is even taking on new exclusives right now, so…I’m not saying anything…I’m just saying.

I wouldn't mind Sirens in a variety of steels.

Re: Siren in MagnaCut?
I would also like to see the Waterway in this Steel. For that matter Caribbean too.
