looking at the Amazon links it looks like the cheaper one is only listed by part #.....damn good score.

You get what you pay for. A good quality life will last lifetimes.

That's funny because I spent multiple hours yesterday researching knives before I spent $80 on that Kershaw and read multiple times that spiderco makes some of the best production knives on the market. Along with Kershaw and Benchmade.

I'm not a big fan of Spyderco either, I rate them with CRKT. I think Benchmade is probably the finest production blade available. Kershaw the best for the common man.

I've had/seen some very durable CRKT knives, I've been a fan of their stuff for awhile. Also liked some Gerber knives, but have read a lot of bad reviews on their stuff.

But nothing beats a made in USA knife

So the 20 or 30 other reviews I read praising Spyderco knives weren't based on experience?
