Have several mules but love the Junction.

The below one.
Goes with me every work trip and has done as a perfect knife for those weeks in a hotel/apartment with a knife that couldn’t bruise a tomato that are usually in the draw

This is my only fixed Spyderco. I've been on a fixed blade kick for a while and the ARK has been a permanent carry for over a year now.

Darby nearly killed me with that post and not a word was written. I can only be so envious :smiling-heart-eyes

What process did you use to strip the blade ? Looks great . MG2

My only fixed blade Spyderco, other than three kitchen knives,
is a humble Bill Moran Drop Point
purchased when discontinued and deeply discounted.
But it has been put to hard use processing a few deer and hogs.

My only criticism is that I would prefer a full tang.
A larger budget would have solved that
which leaves me with blade envy.

You could do a lot worse than the Moran for a hunting knife. I am surprised I’ve never picked one up.

Where is Reject? I think he might own every Spyderco fixed blade ever made?
