So for sometime now Ive wanted to try out one of Spydercos Super Blue steel knives. So I have two questions.....First if you could buy any of the Super Blue knives which would you get and why??? Second to make sure I know of all my options how many models where done in Super Blue and what are they???? thanks
 
Off the top of my head...

Ladybug
Manbug
Dragonfly 2
Delica
Endura
Stretch

All of the above are are laminated blades.

In full superblue there is the Caly 3 and 3.5

Those are the ones I'm familiar with. I just ordered the delica and I am getting it in a few hours. I kind of prefer the full sb calys, but only because of how cool super blue looks with a nice patina. From a practicality standpoint, the laminates are probably superior and they seem to develop a nice look too after a bit of use.
 
How does super blue perform vs zdp 189? can it take super shallow edges? is it brittle or tough?
 
I've carried a super blue endura a ton, and a delica to a lesser extent. I think the steel is pretty amazing, it take an maintains a great edge and is easy to sharpen. It also responds very well to stropping. Oh, and to add to what surfingringo said, there was also a mule offered in non-laminated super blue. Hopefully I can find the funds for a stretch one of these days. :)
 
I havent seen the Caly 3 or 3.5 before in SB and didnt know those two were fully SB.....I bet they come with nice price tag lol I dont know much about the steel just that many people seem to like it.
 
I want to order one tonight but really cant decide between the SB Endura or SB Stretch???? Which would u guys go with??
 
Also if anyone knows of place with SB Stretch in stock or one for sale let me know.....place I thought had them are sold out now
 
Somehow laminated steel doesn't really ring my bell. Out of all the SB models, I have two of what I really want.

Just placed order for the Super Blue Stretch if I like it I may try and collect all the Super Blue models
 
Blade HQ has the Super Blue Stretch in stock again. Just checked before I typed this and posted it.
 
Have a sb stretch inbound now...I look forward to reporting back! :thumb up: :D
 
I just picked up a SB Stretch from Spyderco HQ in Golden, Co.

It is too early for me to pass any comments on its merits but I sure do like it!!
