Hi all,
I just want to say that I love these knives. Today my roommate and I had some work to do in the yard. Some very large but unidentifiable (at least to us) plants were growing out back. I was weed eating and mowing while she pulled weeds. Well those large plants were no match for the my Saver Salt which my knife novice roommate used without any problems. (she wants my knife now). I used my Salt 1 to cut the plastic weed eater cord, chop down some bigger thicker weed stalks, and even accidentally dropped it so it landed point first in the dirt. i picked it up, wiped it off and kept on going. I love these knives. And now so does my roommate. The Salt 1 has replaced my dragonfly as my EDC for everything except going to work. Love it!!!
Thank you all for all of your excellent recommendations, advice, and suggestions. You all introduced me to my new obsession.
have a great day!

Can't beat the Salts,(well yes you can beat them, doesn't seem to hurt them) I use my Pacific everyday to chop fast growing brush back off my hiking trails. It just keeps giving me great lightweight, rust-proof performance day after day!

Well I highly recommend them. I gotta tell ya, as much as I love knives and blades and such, I could be extremely happy for a very, very long time with just the three spyderco's I have, especially the salts. They really are great and darn useful.

I have a yellow Salt 1 and enjoy using it and carrying it. I also have a Ladybug Salt attached to my fly fishing vest. I love them.
 
I guess I just havent gotten one yet because I just dont know how a completely rust proof knife can have any decent edge retention. But.. I've never tried out Spydies H1 before so I wouldn't know.
 
Hi all!
Okay, I didn't mention it before because I figured I'd eventually fix it and today I finally got brave and did it. When I first got my Salt 1 PE I tested out it's sharpness by trying to cut some paper and noticed that it seemed to snag. Kept trying and noticed that it snagged at the same spot. Warily, I used the ceramic stones on the sharpmaker but it didn't really help. Today, finally, I broke out the brown stones, figured out where the problem areas were and managed to smooth out the blade. now it pops hair like crazy. As it turns out, there were too knicks in the blade that I couldn't see or feel until I used the brown stones. anyway just thought I'd share. Even though it still performed really, really well it was bugging me that it snagged that way. Now it doesn't. It is almost the perfect knife.

I just got a Pacific Salt yesterday. I haven't had a chance to do much with it, but somehow it just feels "right". I think I'm going to enjoy this knife!
