How come some Enduras say 111v next to the spyderco logo on the blade?

Are these a different steel?

I'm pretty sure that's a collector's number.

Some or yours? I thought CC numbers were unique.

Stores will sometimes get cc # knives. My Police 3 came from new graham as soon as that model released.

Only one of each Endura variant would have a specific number, like 111V, but there are a lot of Endura variants. Which means there's going to be one less Endura numbered 111V than there are Endura variants and one Endura variant that was considered the "base model" numbered 111.

Not mine, on the photos on a website selling them, I saw some had it and some didn't but they were the same price and wondered why? The thought was if the ones with the number were a diff steel were they maybe a better bargain at same price...

What version of the Endura did you buy? Regardless, there should only be one Endura of that variant with "111V" on the blade.

I actually just looked at the pictures. Own a hollow grind endura was considering an ffg and saw the numbers on the ones in the pictures. I thunk one had a purple handle and one was some other odd color. Didn't buy either.

That is the voltage required to charge that version of the Endura. You can order a USB conversion kit on Amazon that will charge this Endura and includes an adapter for the Delica.
Can you find it and can it cut? :eek:
