... the variant of my favorite folder I should like the least... but still want to try... :smirk

(found one used for a good price)
K390 Stretch ? Or Endura ?
No... :smirk

Especially the K390 Endura could have even the potential to becoming my favorite variant of my favorite folder (don´t own one (yet...?) so I can´t say for sure)

I said: The LEAST favorite variant ("the one I should like the least") of my favorite folder...
Hints:
- Yes, I DO like the Endura!
But:
- I like light folders
- I like grippy handles
- I like FRN
- I like ffg
- I like SE
- I like tool steels

So: What could be the least favorite variant? :smirk (but one I still wanted to try immediately when I saw it used for a good price?)
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

Bingo!! :beaming-face

For the weight of this thing I could literally carry a Pac Salt 2 ffg, a Salt 2 ffg and a DFly instead.. :grin-sweat
Still - I love the Endura, never had a stainless steel Spydie (actually I´ve owned only one metal handle folder at all, a titanium flipper), and I think it´s somehow cool. Will I keep it forever? We´ll see... :smiling-cheeks

Two lil' ones on the way right now. DF2 K390 Wharncliffe and Ladybug Salt Hawkbill SE. They will join the parade of small Spydies fighting for 5th pocket time in my jeans.

Oh yeah it does ! Would love to order some for myself, $45 shipping is a bit steep, I'll wait next mule :D

For me : Finally caved in for a Native Chief. I took the S30V because I like the steel and really want the design more than anything. I'll buy the REX45 burnt orange in a few months (found a french dealer that is bad at computers, his website doesn't show on google :rofl ).
:respect In the collection :respect : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

Still waiting on the long ago ordered Native 5 Salt SE. Now they say December 29 ship date. Maybe if they keep delaying it, I’ll get one in MagnaCut. 🤞🤣

They should do you a solid 0001!

I'm still waiting on my Native 5 SPY27. Santa better not be late next week. Delivery says the 25th.

The original order was placed January 21, 2021. I just let it ride due to the price and to see how far it would be pushed off. I expect it ship in January to make it a perfect 12 months.

It’s not their fault, they were caught by all the supply slowdowns and shortages just like everyone else.

I decided to join the cult of vivi. I purchased a used Pac Salt PE H1 with the old gen 3 style handle.
