Received my Micarta McBee scale from McNees Knives today, pretty pleased with how it looks.

I watched a documentary last night called The Alpinist, about an elusive Canadian climber named Marc-Andre Leclerc. Absolutely fascinating. The scenery reminded me of some of your pictures and I found myself thinking while watching, "hmm, I wonder if this guy carries a Spyderco, like Wartstein?!"
Thanks, and glad you like the pic!
As an alpinist I can´t compare to Marc-Andre Leclerc by any measure in what I do - but sadly (and I don´t mean this sarcastic at all!) this might be the reason why he died at a young age (but after living an intensive life) and I am still here...
/ Generally, here in Austria climbers and people in general don´t carry knives often. Which is weird and sad, cause by law they could carry just about any knife they wanted legally (differently to all the surrounding European countries).
Climbers/mountaineers/hikers here bring a completely dull SAK or some Leatherman at best, if any blade at all.
I think Spyderco could m market their Seki Salt knives, especially the Salt 2 ffg, more broadly also as perfect ultralight hiking mountaineering option. Perhaps even in another, dedicated variation concerning handle color or perhaps even blade shape.
As it is, I figure many people just read "Salt" and move on, thinking that this would be models only specialized for the use around and in Salt water.
I did a thread once about how maybe Spyderco could market some of their models more broadly (of course just my uneducated layman view!!) viewtopic.php?t=89276
And one about the Salt 2 as the "perfect ultralight hiking knife" viewtopic.php?f=2&t=88925

It’s rather rare now so don’t carry it much as I should or want to . I like how it is so thin but still fills your hand very well . I had the Stretch XL Blues today and thought I should enjoy what I already have in collection . Old blade design will always be my favorite , but designs change and move on . Hope you have a great day . MG2
One of the few spydies I regret not buying. Classy design and that ZDP189 laminated blade is awesome. How stupid of me

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
This Stretch came out in 2007 - 2010 the ZDP189 was not laminated on any Stretch 1 . Similar to the Delica and Endura offerings at that time . Everyone has a favorite knife , this design by Sal will always be one of the top of my list .

That's a great choice minus the salt. I use my 20CV blades when I am at the lake or beach until I get a salt knife.Ranger_Ike wrote: ↑Fri Mar 04, 2022 8:19 am20cv Endura
