Temp 1 model is super functional for survival
As time goes by I continue to fall deeper in love with my 2 original Temperance 1 models ( PE & SE). I use my PE Temp 1 at least 6 to 8 times a week and just love it's functionality and ease of use. I wish so much that they would bring back the Temp 1 in the Salt Series with H-1 blade steel and make it available again in PE & SE. To me the Temp 1 is truly the quintescential survival fixed blade in my line up.
I also hold all of my Catcherman models dearly and have 2 of them in my bug out bags.
I also would have my big Spyderhawk Hawkbill blades in a survival kit as well. And for a folder I would go with either a C-60 Massad Ayoob with the G-10 handle or as many of my brethren like the C-36 Military. My XHP model Military would be my pick for a back up folder.
I think it's high time to start looking at making many of the older models like the TEmp 1 and some others in H-1.

Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!
I'm hearing more and more about the Warrior model being prefered in survival and outdoor uses. I do want to get one eventually but do be kind enough to tell us what advantages it would have over Spyderco's other fixed blades?? I do know that the spine has a serrated working edge which I'm very fond of but I'm still wondering what other advantages it has to put it at the top of many people's list.cgjones wrote:A Warrior with a Pacific Salt in the pouch on the sheath.
As far as the Pacific Salt goes I like most anything in the Salt/H-1 Series. People really missed the boat on the H-1 Catcherman Sprint that they had 2 to 3 years ago. My only regret is that I wish I would have nailed down 2 of them. I also wish they would come out with a fully serrated Catcherman like the ones out of the old AUS-8 series.

I don't know if the Warrior necessarily has any distinct advantage over other Spyderco knives, I just think that it's a kick-*** knife!JD Spydo wrote:I'm hearing more and more about the Warrior model being prefered in survival and outdoor uses.
