Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
Wifey lost her Dragonfly to TSA, mega bummer. She has other knives, but really liked that one.
I’ve been slowly trying to get her comfortable with larger knives, and she likes the back lock, so a pink Native 5 is on the way.
I haven’t bought a knife for myself in over a year, but DLT had the Crucarta Millie 2 and an appropriate Lynch clip in stock, so I splurged.

I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

K390 Endela wharncliffe. This is my first foray into non-stainless as well as my very first time handling an Endela, and I'm excited on both fronts.

Manix 2 XL CPM SPY27.
Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
You will like it. The Endela, especially in K390, it's my preferred lockback EDC. The Wharncliffe is nice too, especially in a SE. Mine has a standard blade, but I suspect you will love that knife!KeepCalm&Carrion wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 12:03 pmK390 Endela wharncliffe.

Sage 5 Salt from Knives Plus. Opted for the acid stonewashed blade finish so it might not be in the mail just yet.

Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
Oh I didn't realize that model had different blade finish options, interesting.
I've got one in the mail also now, but not sure which blade finish it has now that I think about it.
Going back to Caly.
Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
Great choice Larry! Mine has only left my pocket for one day since getting it a couple weeks ago. I expected to like it, but it's been better than expected.

Normally I do prefer serrated edges (this will be the only PE in my modest rotation of ~5 folders) but I've also never tried anything like K390 with regard to edge retention.

I just bought a Para 3 exclusive from '18/'19. It's a S35VN DLC blade with earth brown G-10. I bought it 2nd hand off of the new BladeBinge website. I'm excited to get it.

I am waiting on a Knife Joy exclusive Endela in a VG-10 based Damascus Steel.
Re: Which spyderco is in the mail?
It’s a customization that Knives Plus does, not Spyderco. I usually keep my knives stock except for drop carry clips but I want to use the Sage for edc and will be swapping out the scales to a darker color that won’t stand out as much in an office; figured I might as well have the blade match.SpeedHoles wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 2:04 pmOh I didn't realize that model had different blade finish options, interesting.

seems like we'll be seeing a lot of 15V Millies posted next week!
I have some micarta coming for mine too.
