Which Spyderco are you carrying today?

Magnetic Monday : Spyderco T-Mag from 2007, with carbon fiber scales. This is one of my oddball Spydies, it’s a slip joint with an embedded rare earth magnet to hold the blade open. It’s the first and last time I saw such a magnetic lock in a Spyderco knife, so I guess it’s sort of an experimental thing.

In terms of usage, it’s actually like the UKPK with forefinger positioning in the choil to fully prevent blade closure. The ricasso says “Golden, Colorado USA Rare Earth” 😁
 
Fully serrated Japanese market (white box) Truffram Worker. Scored two of these babies new old stock. Rat-holed one and daily carried this one for a year. Now I just carry it every now and then. Only thing I don't like is the opening hole doesn't have enough "bite" and my thumb slips out during opening. But this does not affect Spyderdrop openings in the least. Hard to believe it's an antique. Love that splinter pickin' tip.

Probably sounds blasphemous but you know . . .
you could do a bit of grind grind on the inside of that hole and get an edge / bite .
