I actually had a cranberry Salsa on the hook, that is - i mailed the seller "I'll take it" , and that was the last i heard and saw of that.. :(
I will never get why people put stuff up for sale and then just go to radio silence and scope depth when it's time to close the deal..
I mean, if you change your mind, just mail me with a "I am sorry, but i changed my mind and will keep it"

I hope I did this correctly. This is a Spyderco that I have had bouncing around in my toolbox for a couple of decades. I tried cleaning it up a bit and I am surprised at how hard it is to open one handed. I can't seem to get any leverage on the hole. I usually just use two hands.

Does anyone know what the blade steel is? The blade has Spyderco on one side and Seki-City on the other.

I don't care if FFG is twice as good as the old Native grind, it is still *the* best looking by a mile :)
