    Best knife, I have two (1x serrated) and also a spyderco fixed blade. I work on the ocean.. a lot of my time is spent there.
    Heavy use, thick tow lines, fish cutting, dirty jobs, blood&guts, net mending, tuna farms, engine rooms …these are savage! I go over it with any water and a light scourer.. no oil, no safe storage, it lives on a shelf of rust on the boat.. they are all spotless and razor sharp. 2+ yrs💪

    There is a 3" blade model(Delica size). Great little knife. The knife also has a purpose for the Navy. So it's meant to be more of a maritime tool than an edc for the average person. It's a great edc if you live in humid areas as well.

    I have the H1 version of this knife and I have used it as my top-side knife when I go scuba diving. It is a good around knife for a long day on the boat. I removed the pocket clip. I also have the Enuff fixed blade in H1 that I take underwater with me and the Dragonfly in H1 for the beach. All three have exceeded my performance expectations. This LC200N version should be a winner. Wishing you the best in 2021 and beyond.

    Caveat to this is serrations. The LC200N FFG for plain edge definitely, but for spyderedge the H1 gains back a lot of traction. It’s one of their best performing steels for serrations and it’s even more corrosion resistant than LC200N afaik.

      @theknifeconnection9571 3 года назад +3

      You're exactly right. Mr complex here went a little crazy on that. But I wouldn't want a choil on this knife. Not only are you closer to the blade. But the wetter your hands the softer they get. Which means you could just get cut by the choil jimping and edges itself. C'mon complex. Think about it. We still love ya tho

      This is an amazing knife. It’s one of two issued knives we get for work. The other is the Atlantic Salt for our in water use. But this is our deck knife and it’s extremely suited for this. It definitely benefits from pants that have a designated knife pocket on the front of your pants or back of your leg. It sits out enough to grab easily. The length of the handle is long enough for use with gloves and the length gives you plenty of purchase. Anything less is not enough. And to touch on the finger choil, i have tried knives with them and they get hung up ALL the time when cutting line because you’re not going to use the choil when you need to cut quickly. It’s also cheap enough to not care too much about which is important for professional use. You want quality but not expensive. This is exactly what you get with this knife.

    According to a data sheet by Zapp, LC200N is a tool steel with a 15% chromium. This is why the steel is so resistant to rust.

      I have the pacific salt 2 and siren. The Siren has a thicker blade stock and more dramatic distal taper. The shorter blade length of the Siren makes it more edc-able for me. But the pacific salt 2 slices better. The g10 slabs on the Siren feel more robust than the hollowed out frn on pacific salt (the frn is gripper thanks to bidrectional texture). The Siren has a thicker, smoother lock (like the native). It's a toss up and they're pretty different knives. I think the Siren is a little underrated.
