A few old school models from my collection

#1

Post by American1776 »

From my collection: Massad Ayoob (aluminum), ATR Titanium, Lum Tanto (2001, g-10) Chinook (gen 1), Civilian (Aluminum, Kraton, Gin-1).

I carry the Massad Ayoob and Chinook the most often, and have multiple copies of each.

I think the ‘rarest’ one of this bunch is the ATR Titanium with serrated edge.

Very nice collection of older stock . I had the ATR Ti in PE a best friend has it in his collection but still have the SS and ATR 2 . All are classics and thank you for sharing ! MG2

Thanks!

The ATR, to me, is a more refined PM2. I have many different variations of the ATR. Compression lock, 3.5 inch blade, g-10 scales. Just my own personal preference.

Excellent collection there, American1776. Yes, the titanium ATR is one knife that I would never ever let go.

Essentially a frame-lock compression lock. I don’t recall if Spyderco ever came out with any other model using this lock type.
