It's been two decades since I bought a Spyderco. A few weeks ago I gave that last one I bought to my brother because he loves them so much. So I felt like I needed to replace it, everyone should have (a real) one anyways. Not my first choice in knife brands but this one fits the criteria for its intended uses.
I always carry a second smaller blade in the off side for them real light duty tasks and it's mostly when my hands are tied up holding stuff or dong something with my primary knife hand. Trivial first world problem ya know. Not happy with the current blade in that role (Schrade small cheapie believe it or not). So I had enough. I like the slip joint feature, reversible clip for left side carry, perfect blade size for intended tasks. Only unknown is the steel. if it's a dud for steel I'll let Yall know.
