I've been using my Endura4 for a couple weeks now..Out of all the folders I've had over the years, I like the Spyderco spine lock system the best..The liner lock and frame lock systems on my "other" well made knives have never failed me but,, the spine lock system has grown on me...It just seams like I can open and close this Endura with one hand so easily..The lockup feels incredibly solid. .Just another point of view I have about Spyderco knives being my favorite...

I've sold off so many knives since aquiring my Endura and Delica..
 
Same as you I EDC a Delica, I even had a sheath made so I could carry it locked open and I must say I love it even more
 
My favortie is the compression lock, like what you see in the ATR and Paramilitary.

i know people will hate me for this but the axis lock is probably my favorite... if only it was one finger close like the SOG knives.
 
Compression lock for me, closely followed by the Frame Lock (aka. Chris Reeve Integral Lock).
The compression lock just does it for me with being simple, strong, easy to manipulate and giving fast action without any springs.
 
Spyderco midlocks are my favorites. All my current Spyderos EDC have them. Also I like a lot compression lock and original ball lock. The only lock which I am not fond of is frame lock. Two out of four Spydercos, which I bought with this lock were not easy to operate.
Midlocks rule. At least in my domain.
 
Spyderco's Mid-Lock are my second favorite lock.The Ti Framelock(RIL) is my first.
 
I love the good ole liner lock. Although I do not own any frame locks yet. The southard flipper just might change that.
 
My favorite is the mid-lock as well. Most of my Spydercos feature this lock. I do like the ball bearing and compression locks as well but the knife designs that use the mid-locks are my most used.
 
Spine lock?
