Yesterday, was out playing around with my Spyderco Endura and it got away from me for a second, when I was folding it. No big deal, I just barely touched my left thumb with the serrated edge. I couldn't believe how sharp it was and how easily it cut me. I have heard others say it was a razor sharp edge, but I guess I wanted to find out first hand. The cut was very minor with 4 small puncture type wounds from the serrations, I didn't even need a band aid, just a little alcohol.
The funny thing is, I underestimated the Endura. I usually carry a larger knife (Cuda Maxx 7.0) as my primary EDC and use the Endura as either backup or when I work out or lounge around the house. While I felt a little stupid for cutting myself, I wasn't worried about the cut, I was just impressed with how sharp my knife was. I look at the Endura with more respect now and feel confident it would be a good self defense weapon if necessary. I also admit to having an addiction to knives and being in need of a 12 Step Program.
