At first I was not a big fan of the Endura, then I got one on 2/20/2009 and fell in love and you can see how that has changed since then ;)

Very Nice. The E4 is my favorite Spyderco too. (Although i dont have a Military yet:))

Yes you do need a white one, as well as a Waved model. I have also really come to enjoy my all Black E4. I'd reccomend one of those too.
 
Why do you guys think that endura is such a great knife? I have experiences with 2 or 3 enduras, on every there was weakness of blade. There are not more than 0,5-1mm of steel which lock blade.
 
I love the Endura.

For years I wouldn't touch a Spyderco but I kept reading about them and never heard anything bad. So finally I broke down and bought an Endura. My first thought was "it's huge, it's ugly," then I got it out of the box, opened it up and fell in love with it. Then it lived in my pocket for well over a year, and then off and on for a while until it was finally retired by a Benchmade 710 three and a half years ago.

I still think it's huge and ugly, but I love it. It still gets some use, but not EDC use. I use it when I need a very pointy tip for something.

Every knife has a weakness. Could you elaborate further on your problems with the Endura?

pretty much my sentiments exactly haha
 
Laurin, were your Enduras earlier generations like the 3rd generation? When i used to sell knives, I had a lot of folks turn their noses up to spyderco because they had problems with tip breakage on the early generation Enduras/Delicas. Spyderco has fixed the problem with the Endura4 and Delica4 with thicker blades and tips. I wouldnt touch a Gen3 endura... but I love all 4 of my gen 4 Enduras.

Say Wavester.. SWEET Izula in the background. I have often combo edc'd my white E4 and black Izula. They look great together

That is a BEAST! I have been wanting one of those - but now seeing yours (and some BEAUTIFUL shots I might add) I want it that much more! :)

thatd be my white endura and izula;) haha. but yes its quite the combo, love em both
 
Yes I do... So far that one has eluded me.

I literally just bought the white model yesterday. Cant wait for it to come in!! My only other Spyderco is the Tenacious. If the tenacious is that good, then I expect to be blown away by the Endura.
