Will we ever see an all black SE Pac salt??
The title pretty much sums up my question.....I've been waiting on an all black SE Pac salt for years. I wonder if and when Sal will put one out. It can't be too much extra work as they have and produce everything they need.
39 & counting...

I would be alllll over a black and yellow Pac salt seeing as I'm a WSU Shocker graduate and that combo would just be badass anyway. Although I'm not sure if spyderco would be interested in a run like this because the black blade Pac salt was for military and intended to be discreet so a yellow handle would make it stand out. However I know and we all know a yellow frn handle and black SE blade would fly off the shelves like hot cakes...so maybe in time we will be able to convince the crew to do a sprint of these fancy Pac salts :DFCM415 wrote:That's what I'm talking about! I'd def pick one up, the combo I wished they had when I purchased my Pac Salt. A serrated black blade and yellow would be nice too.

I'd be down. I've been looking for a great fully serrated model. I love my Tasman but I'd like a non hawkbill fully serrated. I use my UKPK a lot but a nice locking knife in full se would be great.

I would be willing to bet there are a few of these in US Military hands already. Anyone remember the black blade Manix 2 LW? Only one out there...belongs to a Gov't door kicker!

Actually a yellow handle against a black blade would be an aesthetically pleasing contrast. But if only one frn handle colour was offered I would say that a black handle would make the most sense in combination with a black blade. Although I do admit that the "tool-like" marine yellow offers excellent visibility if dropped in water.ManixFan wrote:I would buy a black bladed serrated Pacific Salt..........but not if it had a yellow handle.
Hmmn, perhaps get both?

I'm excited for the PE, already have the SE. It would make a great camping and hiking food prepper.

Hehe...I don't really care for the yellow either to be honest. My black pacific salt was lost at sea earlier this year and I replaced it with the yellow to have something "higher vis" but it's kind of fugly compared to my old black one. Whatever, folks seem to like em and I use this particular knife so much and so hard it's kind of hard to get too worried about the color...such concern is best reserved for safe queens. Funny how that works...the more I actually use a knife, the less I give a **** what it looks like. :) .zhyla wrote:The addition of a carbon coating to an H1 blade is pretty ironic.
What's with you yellow handle freaks? I would have bought an H1 dragonfly by now if I could get it in reasonable color.

If the black Endura was all PE or the black Pac Salt was all SE I would own them both but they aren't so I don't own either. The black Endura is only CE and the black Pac Salt is only PE. I would love to see either of these.

Totally agreed. Not a big fan of CE, but I have two Endura's in that edge. They are my daily users, and although I find them useful...I won't buy CE again.
And I would def buy a Black Salt in SE, especially considering how its reputed to perform. Def buy a black E4 PE if it was made. Strange with the combo edge only.
