I Say Get A Tenacious.
I Have One, And I Have About 5 Spydies But Would Never See Myself Getting Rid Of My Tenacious. It Is Above And Beyond What You Would Expect From A Knife In Its Price Range.
It's Made In China, But Honestly Who Cares? If The Product Is Good, Who Cares Where It Was Made?
It's Built Nice, Not Too Heavy, Very Strong Linerlock, Nice G-10 Handles, Great Blade Shape And Thickness, Great Wide Blade For Lots Of Cutting Room, Holds A Good Edge, Gets Crazy Sharp, Tough, Good Slicer, And Overall It's Just Excellent, And You Will Never Regret The $30 You Spent On It.
I Was Going To Get A ZT 0350 Due To This Thread To Go With My Para2, But I'm Starting To Rethink It And May Just Used My Griptilians As My Beefy Knives, Even Though They're Lightweight, They Are Heavy Duty Knives.
Anyways I Say Get a Tenacious, Great First Spydie, And Great Knife Overall, And It Won't Break The Bank.
If You Can Go $20 More And Get The $50 Price Range, Grab A Native. Great Blade Shape, A Little Smaller Than The Tenacious Coming In At 7" Overall, Tough FRN Handles, Thick But Fits Great In The Pocket, Wonderful Ergos, s30v Blade Steel, And It's Another One I Can't Say Anything Bad About. Put A 17Degree Edge On It Like I Had On Mine, And You Have A Super Amazing Super Sharp But Heavy Duty Slicer.
Did I Mention This Fits The Hand Like A Glove?
