This could be a very short thread. :o

Which Spyderco production models came with a deep carry clip?
I'm not interested in the wire clips because they can all be swapped to low carry anyway.

I have a PPT so I'm aware of one...

Thanks.

A PPT photo just because. ;)

Thanks.
I avoided this model for a while because of the blade grind issue and it slipped my mind but now that it's been addressed I think this one might get put on the short list.

Well if you get a Nilakka I would surely like to hear your impression. I really like the look of it - I am partial to the ethnics, but I read at least one review that thoroughly panned it as being uncomfortable to hold and useless as a knife - due to the thin blade and grind. Spyderco does warn in the data sheet that it is a "high performance cutting tool and is not intended for hard use cutting chores… that apply significant stress to the cutting edge or point." Sounds like a go to church knife.

Of course there are glowing reports from others. I am not one to be turned away by one whining blade bob but for the price it has given me pause. I think Barman 1 you would give a fair assessment.
