My New EDC

[raylaconico]

I don't usually hang around this forum but I thought I'd post this here since it's about a Spyderco..

I got a surprise gift this weekend. My friend John (lambertiana) got a group of guys together to buy me this knife. I've always talked to John about how much I wanted an orange Military but just couldn't get one for myself. It's the one knife that I wanted for EDC to replace my Endura that I've carried for the past 4 years.. Thanks a bunch guys!

If I was given a choice to pick one Spyderco blade for all around usage ( especially outdoor) and I was to pick either a plain edge or combo edge I would either pick a Military or the G-10 Endura. Both have excellent blade length to handle length ratio. Both have excellent blade steel and both have incredibly contoured grip for a production folder.

You have very good friends Sir and I envy you greatly. Congratulations on a great new edition to your cutlery arsenal.

I must warn you though because Spyderco knives are a lot like the old Lay's potato chip commercials where they used to say "I bet you can't eat just one" Nor will you be able to be content with just one Spyder either
