Ummm... lovely ^^ That Zerotolerance looks really mean and heavy duty. I don't know, somehow its shape made me think A-10 Warthog... I mean Thunderbolt II ^^

Is that Rukus? Which # is the ZT? And what model Spydie is that?

KeithAM · Sep 17, 2009

Formidable trio. :thumbup:

I like all of those but would switch the ZT and Manix to tip up. Nice collection.:thumbup:

Very nice:thumbup:

It's interesting that there's 3 different locking systems represented.
ZT, the titanium frame lock.
Benchmade, the Axis-lock.
Spyderco, the back-lock.
All are very tight and secure.

All good, just different.

For a bunch of heavy duty folders I don't see a single scratch. Come on make 'em earn their keep.

he uses them everyday in construction. He lends them out to his non knife buddies who pry and use them as screwdrivers. Yes...they are that good

I have way too many knives to use every single one I own. I'm cursed with the collecting gene. My entire family on my Dad's side is.

Which leads to the interesting question: which of those 55 Spydercos do you carry everyday?

IIRC it's a Pacific Salt with a black handle.

There is 365 days a year I'm sure there is enough time to carry them all

I carry them, in a belt sheath hiking. But, this is clipped my pocket and what I use mostly.

How's the lockup on your 300? mine is 50% engaged. Not likin' it.
Otherwise I like the knife alot. Someone talked about they needed to be sharpened 2 or 3 times before they get really sharp.

And by the way your pic of your Manix makes me more interested in that model, before I had I always disliked the Spyderco blade shape,
too weird.

It's about the same maybe a hair more. That's desirable in a Ti frame lock, so it wears in and gives long service.
