Great knife. I own the smooth handled S45VN version. Such a classy minimal design.Protech Mordax
Beautiful knife!It really is a perfect pocket knife, the pics didn't do justice to me until I got in hand and felt the fit, weight, proportions, just the total design. Once I had one I saw the light!.
I've been loving the s45v on a Spydie and a Medford I have. Really great steel.Great knife. I own the smooth handled S45VN version. Such a classy minimal design.
Amen my brother amen.Doesn't need to make sense.
A man shouldn't need a reason to want another knife.
That’s what I’m talking about !

I have that same Shallot, bought it right before they were discontinued. That’s one they should bring backI have purchased identical spares of things that I like, especially if they are hard to find and/or are likely to get worn out or lost.
I bought 2 identical phones for this reason and just recently had to switch to the spare because of problems w/the original. I've also purchased a spare pair of shoes that I really liked and wish I had purchased a spare of one that is now wearing out but is no longer made.
As for knives, I've purchased many variations of the same model knife but the only identical dup I ever purchased was a replacement for a Kershaw 1840CRT which the 1st "expensive" knife that I ever purchased (it cost me $80 in the early 80's) that I lost.

I initially bought an XXX (2nd) replacement from the Kershaw Guy but, after I got into "collecting" knives, I bought a NIB version and 8 other 1840 variations. Whenever I want to carry the 1840, I carry the 2nd.
Where did you get that storage roll? I like it
ThanksThat's a large SpyderPac (https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/SP1/SpyderPac-trade-Large/144).
tell us, my friend, the "guy" is really a guy but not yourselfI know “a guy” who has around 17 of the same model knife.
