Stranded on a deserted island! Only 1 spyderco knife to choose from!

[eric m.]

Pick one spyderco knife to be stranded on a desert island with! For me it would be my standard Military combo-edge.

[SpyderEdgeForever]

I would have to go with the Native with FRN handle, combo-edge, or, the Spyderco Endura with FRN handle and saber-grind.

Of any ever made or from our own collections? From my collection...on a desert island...probably my Schempp Tuff (PM2 close second). Of any ever made, a fixed blade would probably be better, so maybe a Bushcraft or Schempp Rock, but I haven't used any large Spyderco fixed blade knives so I have no practical experience to draw from regarding survival.

Woodlander (go big or go home right :D ), hands down. Great for chopping down trees for shelter and what not, splitting said trees for firewood, and the N690 is a great at edge holding and corrosion resistance. Although I might want to go with a Rock Salt, H1 is much easier to sharpen and if I don't gave my stones, a stone from the ocean will be about all I have to sharpen with.

Bushcraft. I'm not a huge fan of it, but if you're stranded and you can only have one (Spyderco), a full tang and O-1 steel are the way to go.

Ladybug Salt. :p

Rock Salt

Exceptional xceptnl! :rolleyes:

Cracking open coconuts, cutting palm leaves and splitting clam shells. Try that with your LBK!

[eric m.]

Gonna get the Rock Salt! That Marlin Spike looks awesome! :D sorry, I got confused with the tusk! That Rock is a fixed blade-just saw it! That thing is a beast!

[MadRookie]

Southfork!

No maintenance other than keeping the edge alert.

:)

[O,just,O]

Yeah, I would have to go with the Hossoms or Shempp family of fixed blades.
Being an island would slant me toward the Rock Salt.

I dont own a Tuff but it's my answer.

Out of my collection though, the Southard.

If I got stuck on a deserted island, I'm guessing I won't have the luxury of picking what tools to take.

I love threads like this. :D

[Evil D]

1. Forester

2. Warrior

3. Bushcraft

[Gary W Graley]

I forget the model name, but it's the one with a satellite cell phone in the handle, yeah, that one would really be handy there!

Otherwise, a Bushcraft would be the next best thing I suppose.

I was thinking about T2, but have to aknowledge that your choice is better. Somehow I forgot about Rock Salt.
So I will go with the same.

This is easy, just start carrying your chice one day before you stuck on that island. :D
