Show me your favorite SECONDARY blade

[Ernie1980]

Here is the secondary on my Rogers sleeveboard- definitely my favorite second blade style! Large enough for most tasks and easy to access.

The peanut secondary is used almost as much as the primary blade. Not only is it great at opening blister packs it's also behind the main blade which has always been my favorite.

For a pocketknife to become a frequent or longtime EDC for me, it needs to have a Sheepfoot secondary blade. OH

My favorite secondary blade is a coping blade. I'll take a sheepsfoot too, but the size of the coping blade is about ideal to me. I like them in combination with a bellied main blade, preference would be clip point but a spear'll do too.

The coping blade on the Buck 305, especially the 1st 4 examples on the left.
'85, '89, '90, & '98. By the time the '03 example rolled around ( the standard black one ) they were using a hollow grind and while neglegable in performance I just happen to like the older ones more.

This thread makes me wonder about this. Even though it's SAK like, I'm not sure whether this fits as traditional or not. But, I find this small blade interesting. Are there traditional 2/3 blade knives that have a small blade serrated like this?

Camilus, Schrade and even Case have made knives with serrated secondaries. Usually a sheepsfoot. I think they were supposed to be for use on boats? If memory serves. But I don't know that I've ever seen a serrated pen blade

the bone color and jigging is fantastic on that one! I like the pen too. Yours is nice and pointy!

On the very old Victorinox SAKs the smaller blade was a clip point. I thought it was nice. Never saw the point of having 2 spear points.

hard to choose, but I always liked the little wharncliff on the 44OT

I agree, those little clips points are very nice. I'm not sure why more companies don't do something similar

A couple favorite secondary blades (not exhaustive)
Electrician's Sheepfoot because it's such an excellent package opener and as an added bonus it'll strip wires
This particular 303's Spey blade because it could be the sharpest blade ever

I really like a sheepsfoot, but the strange little pen blade on the Case Texas Jack is my favorite I think.

Thanks for the reminder the Texas Jack's secondary blade is a favorite of mine also along with the secondary on Case's Wharncliffe Mini Trapper.

I love the odd like speyblades on the 303. Kinda odd they aren't just a smaller version of the 301 spey blade.m, but it works.
