Would you buy a Stretch XL Salt?

[vivi]

Poll.

[JSumm]

I would like to see it in H1 Hollow Grind. That may thicken up the point a bit for reinforcement, but not take too much from the cutting perfomance.

[Wartstein]

I do have a Stretch XL "salt" already.. kind of.

This is because as you know VG10 does not rust in my use, no matter what I do.

Still some "secondary" properties of the Salt knives could definitely make me interested in getting a real "salty" XL additionaly to my SE VG10 variant:

- Added toughness of H1, LC and MC over VG10
- Stouter blade and tip of tje H1 sabre hollow
- Bright handle color.

So... YES!

Great poll vivi ! Dan

[TheGiant80]

I voted "absolutely".

(Also Vivi I was hoping you'd chime in on the thread I started with your name in the title..)

[ladybug93]

absolutely. it's the only knife that i can see dethroning the pacific salt. especially if it's offered in all black.

i'm a little hesitant though... i want to know how h2 is going to perform. i'd still like the hollow grind and slight sheepsfoot that makes for a more robust tip like we have in the pac salt.

i'm almost certain i'd still get whatever s2xl salt that comes out though.

I would really like it if they keep the point like it is.

No. My primary reason for buying Salt models is that they're linerless, so there's nothing to be gained, from my perspective. Also, I don't need additional corrosion resistance and I like the Stretch XL's blade just fine the way it is.

The Stretch XL is liner less . MG2

Yes, it's a no-brainer for me. Ideally we'd have the S2XL salt and a Pac Salt wharnie as well.

[VooDooChild]

Im waiting on the salt. I wanted the combo edge but my salts get carried way more than anything else.

[James Y]

Yes, I would. Well, whenever I can justify buying more knives again in the future. The Stretch 2 XL is ready-made to become a Salt, as it already has the linerless platform. I hope Spyderco keeps the exact same blade profile, without “sheepfooting” it, like the Pac Salt did with the Endura. I would like one in Magnacut.

I'm more of a tool steel guy. But if the XL was offered in Magnacut, then I'd be interested.

Same here. Despite loving the design of the s2xl, I was waiting for the salt and prolly not buying another VG10 knife of this size when I already have a Pac Salt I love and a VG10 Endura that has seen little use since getting the Pac Salt.

[Danvp]

Vivi, I missed the options: yes, 1 to 10, yes 11-50 and yes 51 - 100… But seriously a Stretch XL in salt version would be a welcome addition. Maybe in H2 steel or Magnacut. At the moment i am holding off the VG10 version. Not that VG10 is not a great steel, because it is, but for the diversity of steels to try.

[yablanowitz]

When they come up with rust-proof Maxamet, I'll buy two. Until then, pass.

Kind of my point.

[elena86]

Only serrated with a “crisp” tip.

[cabfrank]

I would love one.
