Been lurking for awhile, finally decided to join. Bought my first Spyderco, a 1st generation Delica G2 PE, about 12 years ago(?) and it's been my EDC ever since. Soon after that I bought a 1st generation Endura G2 SE. I use it mainly for canoeing and camping. It's always attached to a laniard and clipped to my life jacket. The serrated edge also makes the most awesome bun slicer for those canoeing/camping trips!

A Wal-Mart Native bit me in April. Since then I've gotten the Delica bug! Welcome to the forum.

Welcome, now bid your savings account goodbye.
Ya, judging bysome of the collections I've seen here I believe some of you guys are broke! :eek: As much as I admire these knives, I'm not really a collector by nature. I only buy what I have a use for. Having said that I do have a use for two more. I'm looking at getting a Rescue to replace the Endura as a canoe knife I just haven't decided on which Rescue model yet. I also want a PE Endura to try out as a hunting knife. I need something that will hold an edge and take a bit of hard use for field dressing deer. The weight factor is a big reason for wanting the Endura. I try to keep my pack as light as possible as I often put a lot of miles on in some pretty rough country.

yeah my savings account is like stock in spyderco knives you find the rite ones hold them and in a little while like your savings account they get more value. and for a hunting knife the E4 would be a little out classed for that to much tip a moran would work much better or one of spyders made in mind with caping and gutting.

You should also take a long serious look at the Stretch (Model # C90) for field dressing deer. It's my knife of choice for that task.
