One other thing. I had a PM2 in S45VN. I broke the blade, doing something I shouldn't have been: digging up a dandelion. I know it doesn't sound like anything that could break a Spyderco, but the ground was hard, and I put a sideways prying force on the blade. It snapped right across the middle of the Spydyhole.

Presently I have a PM2 in Cruwear, and another PM2 in S35VN. However, I don't expect to be reporting on the use of either, as dandelion diggers. I have learned my lesson. From now on, my dandelion digger is my Cold Steel SRK (which is short for Search and Rescue Knife). Those don't break.

I love my CruCarta PM2! I'm happy with my S35VN, too. I presently am trying to resist the temptation to get a PM2 in S45VN with Camo scales. I don't know why.
