Oooh... Is that a DLT sprint? Those were such a good deal!
Yep! It looks a little funny in that picture. There's a little tilt shift effect going on and the knife looks smaller than my watch that was right next to it

Mantra for me today…

One of my absolute favorites...it could be my "one knife for life" if need be. Hopefully the bearings/washers/raceways hold up to decades of use.

If one develops an action/bearing issue in the years to come, will Spyderco do anything to repair it, or are we stuck since it's disco'd?

Question is open to anyone with info.
I sent my Mantra 1 into spyderco last year with bearings issues. They put in new washers and bearings and sent it back to me

I don't think I've ever carried this combo, seemed like fun! (the fresh 15 dps finish on the G3 is stupid sharp right now, I almost don't even want to use it and ruin the edge haha!)

Forgot my beloved Endela today, luckily I keep this in my desk.

Using it makes me appreciate the cutting length of the blade.

Fishing with M4 - bold move, Cotton! :winking-tongue
Now, I’m rubbish with a baitcaster so I use spinning reels exclusively. Is that salt water?

Fresh water in the mountains!

I've used M4 and other non-stainless steels around fresh water lots and have never had any rust issues.
