And old friend and a new pal ;-)

This is the third time round with a Southard, hoping third times the charm and she stays put, we shall see! And a new pal, I've been wanting to try out the S110v steel for a while and funds were available to cover that purchase and so here she is. The bevels on this are great, equal and flat the full length of the blade, very well done Spyderco !

Nice stuff right there, both excellent cutters!

Very nice!

My Southard has stayed with me, just purchased a S110V LW Manix to replace the first one I got rid of.

Thanks guys, they both are really great knives, so glad to have them at hand and blanex1 welcome to the forums!

I've been tempted to also pick up the all black Southard but time will tell if I can accrue up enough coin to make that happen

I love the Manix. I picked mine up at BladeShow last year. I am still debating on whether or not its worth the money to do a blade swap on it for some G10 scales...

I had an on again off again relationship with the southard until I got this scale no I am sure I won't be getting rid of this one.

Some good looking Spyders there Gary! Let us know how the S110V work for you in sharpening and use.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

have'nt had to sharpen either one just yet, the S110v has a more toothy edge and that makes it more aggressive cutter

Nice picture! I like a toothy edge as well. Great for slicing.

Thanks I used an ap on my ipod touch to shoot that photo at work, it provides control of shutter, ISO and focusing, plus self timer if you need it, just called Manual.
