#1

Post by MANIXWORLD »

for me its the serrated Salt,and yellow FRN,with the Tasman-yellow serrated on a close second.
I think these Salt's would look great in orange too, like the orange UKPK,dont you think so 2?

my favorite by far are my pacifics... two PEs and an SE. also love my SE tasman. don't get me wrong -- i like the other salts, as well... those just fit best for my EDC needs.

i vastly prefer serrated H1 to PE H1.

and also prefer the marine yellow -- not only is it "different" and interesting, its very useful around water, and/or dark areas.

can't wait for the aqua salt... :D

now that i'm living and working in alaska, and around saltwater all the time... i daren't leave home without a pacific!!! :D

:spyder: I have a tasman pe in black, wished I'd gotten se as the pe. I'd like to get a yellow se one as well as a yellow se salt. :spyder:

Yellow is best in all of them. Serrated also seems to work best with H1 IMHO...

I have a Salt I (black SE), Two Tasman's (1 black/PE and 1 yellow/SE), a yellow SE Atlantic Salt, and a black/SE Saver Salt. I like the Tasman and Atlantic the best.

I really dig swimming with them clipped in your trunks. I have folks say...

"WAIT... You have a knife in you pocket!!!" It is so nice to tell them "I know..." and dive right in.

Living in a place where it snows, I also carry them when I am around the salt or salt like products used to clear streets and sidewalks.

Both the Salt 1 and Pacific Salt in YELLOW! Such a nice, highly visible, cheery, and people-friendly color. I've really been favoring these two lately. Oh, and plain edge on both of them. :)

- best wishes, Jazz.

The Pacific in black is my favorite Salt model. I've got one PE and one SE.

SE Tasman and PE Pacific, both of which are black. I do like the Tasman more, though.

For me it's a toss up between the Tasman & Atlantic Salts. Both in SE of course. I really like the high visibility of the yellow handles.

I really like my yellow SE Salt I; that yellow is quite visible.

I'd have to pass on the orange, though. I wouldn't mind seeing a blue one, however.

Beautiful pictures, Deer Hunter! Thank you! That is SUCH a nice knife and one of my top users. Your pics ( if I didn't alresdy have one ) would have sold me one. On a side note - I notice the change in jimping - still nice and very functional, but I really love the "step" style of the older ones that's on my Salts, Milli, Paramilli, and Manix. It seems to catch the thumb better. :D

- best wishes, Jazz.
