First got the Endura in ATS-55, 50-50 edge configuration. I really like this knife and always look to add more to my knife collection.

In fact, if I ever find a Chinook at a dealer nearby, that is going to be my next one.

Keepin' it real...real sharp, that is.

My first was a G-10 Rookie, serrated. I saw a picture online and couldn't rest until I owned one. Seven more since then...and I'm just getting started. Jeff/1911.

Plainedge worker, got it about 5 years ago, just as they were being discontinued. Paid $25 at the annual gunshow at Hillsville VA. What a deal. I'm really glad I bought that knife. (otherwise I'd still be carrying a SAK)

Though have purchased my 6 Spydies in the last 3 months or so, simply cannot remember whether I bought my Walker Ltwt or Dyad first. Got both used. I expect there will be more, but must admit I like the Wegner so much, I doubt I'll buy nearly as many as I would have if it had been way down the list.
