What is the SKU for the new Enduras? I want to order some from my distributor when they come in but need to know how to differentiate between the new, VG-10 Enduras and the ATS-55 ones.
Won't they (VG-10 versions) likely be the same p/n, and just begin appearing inside the boxes instead of the ATS-55 ones? Perhaps not, and I hope you're right because that would make things much simpler for us.
It doesn't seem likely that they would change the model #, considering that the blade steel, clip type, and other changes/refinements have been made before and the model # is still the same.
I was hoping there would be some distinction. Kind of like the Endura 98. I want to order some VG-10 Endura's but want to be sure that is what I'm getting instead of ATS-55. I guess I will have to have my rep look for me.
Sorry Shootist. In the "Big picture" world of knives, the change in steels is not considered enough of a difference to make the distinction. The Endura 98 was a different model, different mold, clip and steel.
I thought I read somewhere (forgot where) that the new Endura and Delica models will, in addition to VG-10 steel, also feature a flat saber grind instead of the hollow grind, to aid in tip strength. Is this so?

Has anyone seen the VG-10 Enduras or Delicas for sale yet? I'm anxious to get a serrated Endura with the VG-10 blade but haven't been able to find one.
Hope for the best. Be prepared for the worst. You'll never be disappointed.
