blade metal used ?

#1

Post by tict017 »

I have a Spyderco Endura that I purchased

some back in the 90's I think and it has

Seki-Japan on one side of the blade and

Spyderco on the other side with no mention

of blade steel used (ATS - ASU - GIN) ?

was wondering if someone might have some

info, also knife is Serrated and has moulded

clip - - ?



Thanks,

Mike

They also used AUS-6 on the earlier models.

I don't suppose that there would be any
way to really tell what blade metal was
used without spyderco having marked it - -
anyway it's a great knife - - thanks for
replies - -
