It feels like an M4 day
Gotta love M4 with natural G10 in jade. Always loved the look of jade G10, always loved the balance of strength and wear resistance of CPM-M4.

Sorry / no photos.
Two Pattadeses ; one stock and one I cut the blade off way short so it is like a box knife blade. Left a bit of an angled area in front of the Spyder hole (left Sal's maker's mark and the spyder on the other side) this is fortuitous because it allows me to be able to wave it open when I want and is not such a "hook" so it won't accidentally open when I just want to draw the knife unopened. Takes an intentional effort to wave it.
Crazy ugly but it sure does the job especially on those clear tough to open thick plastic packages . . . and boxes . Keeps the tape glue off the stock one

Sunny islands can have rainy days too... no reason though not to climb some minor peak, accompanied by the trusty Pacific Salt
(despite the ocean below is actually the Atlantic
)

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Very happy to hear you like it . I have had both C39 variants and the lightweight is a little bigger and nice just to throw in pocket .

Very unique and distinctive knife. No one that I have shown it to has ever seen anything like it!
I still can’t believe I was able to snag one!

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Nice combo!
And as said before and I know I am a bit an outlier here:
I'd love a Dyad (rather the larger one though) with one side knife blade (preferably SE), other side a spydersaw...
