I carry the top one in your photo as EDC for maybe the past 5-6 years. Like stated, solid knife. No problems whatever. Got me a second one NIB stored just to have a backup because I really like it. They are discontinued, but you can still find new ones for sale. I have found it harder to get the all plain edge ones which seem to sell at a higher price. Wegner also sells his version under the Blade Tech company. Got one of those too in S30V blade and carbon fiber handle- costs more though. He had the liteweight hunter, I believe, that sold for less (under $60?) which was a lockback design. Got that one too. Personally, I still like the Spyderco version best.
