I have been carrying a Armorer's Endura for a few years now, and from the start I have found it to be a very durable, very useful knife. Easy to sharpen, holds an edge well, good grip and lock, and easy to pocket. And I have found the armorer's pin punch to be highly useful in my work.

A true Spyderco classic.

Anyone else love their Enduras?

After passing through a dozen or so Spyderco's, I have kept two - an M4 Military and G10 Endura. For me the Endura is just about the perfect folding camp knife - large but not overly so, stainless, ergonomic, outstanding quality, excellent blade shape for most campsite chores, grippy G10, lightweight, affordable, etc. etc. A keeper for sure.
 
I discovered Spyderco with my first Endura in 1991. Currently have three in the EDC line up. I'm convinced the Endura will end up in the Smithsonian:D
A true modern marvel.
 
I've carried Enduras since 92. I do carry others but I'll pretty much always have my endura with me.
 
i brought 3 knives with me to afghanistan,(was only spose to bring one and a multi tool) the blade i went with was an endura. the other was a medium camilus stockman,(for carving spoons, no shit, spoons)

I think that the Endura has become my favorite knife - especially the FFG flavor. Nice large blade in a thin package for EDC. Has its own aesthetic appeal. Good stuff.

It is possibly the greatest value offered by Spyderco IMO. I have never felt that the design was anything less than deserving of the hours I have put into pimping them.

I have 7 or 8 of them. Good solid knife. I can see why they have maintained flagship status for so many years for Spyderco. Always evolving and improving.
 
I wish i could like my other knives as much as i like the Endura FFG frn nice and light to carry , great slicer , durable , slim, it dont get any better.
 
LOVE the endura. Zdp189. G10 FFG. VG10. Nice solid knife. I have seen a few comments over the years about folks not likeing the saber grind - I find some comfort in the extra steel it gives the tip. That being said, its a tossup as to which I like better - saber or FFG. As everyone else has observed, it is a nice big blade in a slim, lightweight package. Nice solid grip. I have been using the ZDP all day long on a remodel project. I plan on getting more - this is one model that I keep my eye out for on the for sale forum.
 
The Endura is a grat knife, one of my favorite Spidies. Unfortunately, it's too large to carry legally in colorado. But it still is my folder of choice for camping and field work (with a CE blade).
 
Love the endura. My favorite Spyderco. I carry a foliage frn part serrated daily. I have been collecting endura's many year's now, it is my most collected Spyderco. I only need 2 enduras to complete the old E-1 & E-2 lineup of 40 endura's. I have been concentrating on the older E-1's over the year's as they are getting harder to find. I hope to have the complete endura family in my collection some day.
