My first Spyderco came day before yesterday. I would've been on sooner but have been busy. It's an Endura PE in VG-10 steel with FRN grips. I absolutly love it. Cuts like a dream, I can attest to that. Just didn't watch my fingers close enough. Thanks for making a great product Sal. I'm looking at a VG-10 Harpy now.

Wishing you made a Spyderhawk in PE with Black FRN too. Dreams, dreams, but only in a dream. Not sure who said that, but it semmed to fit.



Very Satisfied Customer,

Great first spydie! the endura PE VG10 was my first too! it travelled with me to Oz, Philippines and Indonesia, until I sold it off to a wide-eyed teenager who had never seen something so sharp. :D

I made mine even sharper by lowering the angle to about 25inclusive, stropping/polishing the hell out of it, then finally applying a 30inclusive angle using the grey ceramic sticks on the sharpmaker. it popped hairs like nobody's business and still had "bite".

could be wrist-snapped too :p
 
I just bought my first one too. A Native III w/VG-10 PE. I also bought my girlfriend a pink Jester that she totally loves. I'm usually an Emerson user but I have to say this Native is a hell of a knife. I'm looking for a Delica now...
 
The Endura is an excellent knife. I've had an SE version since 1991 and it has met any challenge that I've thrown it's way.
 
Today, I received a stainless, plain-edge Endura from a trade (my 2nd one...My other is stainless, serrated-edge), and I'm starting to think that I like the Endura even better than my beloved Police models, as the blade of the Endura has more "meat" to it than that of the Police model.:).
 
Congrats on your Endura you'll love it for years to come, i've had one for over 8 yrs now ( the aus 8 model ) still tight as ever !!! Another spydie you should try out if you like the Endura alot is the fantastic Military, it's AWSOME !!!
 
Got my first spydie today too, and i'm in love ;)
I had to wait two weeks for it to ship from the states but it finaly arrived. Got the Endura II with steel handles, serrated. Pretty nasty looking these knifes :)
Sharp too, already managed to cut myself when opening it.

Not used to these "quality knifes" i guess :p
 
Hello Erint, Madaxeman & Gbg. Welcome to the Spyderco forum and thanx for the support. We hope you enjoy your new tools.

The SE Endura II was featured in the movie "Impostor":cool: . Made me want to get a SE Endura but I already have an SE Delica(hate sharpening it). PE for me from now on:) . Great knives IMO.
 
I just got my second Spyderco, but my first "real" knife today. Spyderco meerkat w/ the plain AUS-6 blade. I am beyond impressed with this knife. Bravo Spyderco! My first spyderco was a ladybug w/ combo edge but it soon just became so tiny looking and I wanted something larger.
I also have 2 navigators (1 serrated and 1 plain) on the way. I can't wait!

Last week I bought my 2nd Spyderco, and my first work of art. I upgraded from the Calypso jr., to the Bob Lum Chinese Folder. This is a beautiful knife, and I love the way the big ole' blade magically appears from the slim little folder. Thanks Mr. Glesser.
