The history of Tenacious style blades.

[gomipile]

What Spyderco models have had blades like the Tenacious with edges that extend all the way to the hilt? I am particularly interested in models with better than 8Cr13MoV steel and with locks which are not liner or frame locks.

None that I can think of off the top of my head.Choilless designs aren't very common with Spyderco in general.

The Li'l Temp. 3" blade with edge clear to handle, compression lock, green G-10 scales, made in 440V and S30V, and long discontinued.

Edit to add: the C69. Also made in a trailing point configuration known as the Rhino Horn.

Endura or Delica...

Endura or Delica...

I have an Endura. The kick extends a fair ways from the hilt to the actual sharpened edge. It looks nothing like the hilt-to-blade area of a Tenacious. The current www.spyderco.com image of the Endura 4 FRN looks the same as my Endura in the kick area.

Yah, that is so.

the centofante 1 and 2 (way out of production)

Since you've ruled out liner and frame locks, the Centofante 3 would be your best bet among current production models.
