Another one of my hobbies...
My everyday knife is usually a Boker. Dad passed away with cancer last April and in August some meth heads broke in my house while I was at work and stole every knife in the house (including those of my dad and my son's--even the hunting knives). We recovered more than half of them but for almost a month the Boker that was in my pocket that day was the only knife I had left. Dad had several German knives and custom made knives. He was a former meat cutter and loved Solingen steel. I really like Kershaw knives but only have a couple now.

so what seems to be the general consensus on Spyderco Knives? I was thinking about picking up a Spyderco Endura or Resilience or Pacific Salt and maybe a Tenacious.

I have three of the four. The resilience is wonderfully priced for a 4" blade. But the size isnt quite people friendly. The tenacious seems to be the best of both world. Im not a huge fan of the endura only because its a lockback and isnt quite as fast to close as the Resilience or tenacious so i find i leave it home more often than the others. Same goes for the Pacific salt. Lockbacks are too slow for me but the H-1's rust resistance is impressive. Consider this if you are an avid boater or live near the sea. The 8cr13/14MOV steel in the resilience/tenacious is easy to sharpen but will rust on you if you dont keep a thin layer of oil on it. Whenever i find myself by the beach or water I just wipe some face grease on it for peace of mind.
:-)
All this is my personal opinion ymmv.

I have carried this Spyderco for many years around town, in the woods and on the boat in fresh and salt water. It has been immersed in both fresh and saltwater numerous times and I have had no problems with it. I do rinse it off in fresh water after being in salt, and I try to keep it oiled, but that is just regular preventative maintenance. Similar to a gun, you gotta take care of it.

CPM S30V is much more resistant to rust than 8cr13MOV. It also commands a higher price too. Gotta love the Paramilitary.

Its nice to see a well worn knife. Just a fun fact. Camillus has gone out of business and many people are now finding their blades to be collectable.

well worn, and its only 4-6months of use. But i regularly sharpen it becuase its really abused. Holding up very well though. Im impressed.
ive noticed. Thats why 2 of my knives are camillus. Picked them up on ebay. this is the other one.
