This one is as close to perfection as it gets, at least in my book. Perfect blade lenght for most daily chores if you ask me, great ergos in a neutral handle, wire pocket clip, thin blade stock ground very thin behind the edge( 0.018") . The 20CV steel is just a bonus. Perfect slicing machine. Sal, you did it again. Great job Spyderco :spyder: Enough said.

Re: Behold my long awaited perfect plain edge Spydie
Gotta say, I absolutely love my Watu as well! Such a beauty! I preordered as soon as I saw it in the catalog. And I haven’t been disappointed one bit.elena86 wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 1:22 pmThis one is as close to perfection as it gets, at least in my book.

I wouldn’t call .018 very thin... maybe .002 thinner than other spydies, so maybe thinner but... it’d be a lot cooler at .015 or thinner :D

This profile is growing on me...
Re: Behold my long awaited perfect plain edge Spydie
It would be fair to say that it’s thinner behind the edge than “most” not “other” spydies.Most are ground > 0.022 bte. My Delicas are > 0.024 ... it’s crazy, I know but...So yes, I would say that everything under 0.020 is “very thin” bte and maybe everything under 0.015 is ... “crazy thin”
