If the Endura and the Tenacious came in the same steel, and were priced the same, which one would you get?

Anyone own both? I'm looking for opinions on ergos, execution of the FFG, and cool factor.
I trust a thick liner lock as much as i would a backlock.
I think blue is the coolest color on both knives, so no need for discussion on color options.

3. . .2. . .1. . .aaaand DISCUSS! :eek:
 
I'd say tenacious as I like G-10 better than FRN. And the endura always feels a bit too large to me.
 
I'd go Endura all the way. Get you some Seiki love, saber or ffg are a beast of a knife.
 
I prefer the liner lock on the Tenacious series knives. In fact, my Resilience is my absolute favorite liner lock to flick.

I have owned an Endura for a long time, and it is a nice knife. I just prefer the Spyderco liner locks is all.
 
I prefer not to support totalitarian communist regimes. Therefore, the endura is my choice. It cracks me up how many gun/knife people rag on Obama as a socialist then turn around and purchase thousands of $ worth of Chinese goods to save $10 or so.

ETA: My favorite spyderco color is blue.

I'd take a Military over a ZDP-189 Endura, then. :P And I'd take a Para 2 over that.
 
Id pick the tenacious, the reason im not a endura fan is because the handles just feel, i dont want to say cheap but they leave alot to be desired.
 
Old Endura with the saber grind and pointy tip is one of my favorites. Big on utility and durability without any b.s.
I don't know how the Tenacious model has held to people using the heck out of them long term.

Wouldn't pay any more for G-10 over well textured FRN/Grivory/Zytel.

Personal preference, i dont have either of them anymore but i liked my tenacious more when i had it then i liked the endura (my cousin still has uses and loves the blue ffg endura 4 i sold him though) But i love my sog aegis as a EDC more then either of them. I keep considering a presistance though.
 
I actually prefer The FRN on the Endura. I also trust the blade retention of a back lock over a liner lock.
 
I have the Endura 4 G10 (which is FFG) and the Tenacious. The tenacious is a better size for me for EDC but I prefer my Endura G10 is every other way and is actually more comfortable in the pocket due to its slim handles.
