Middle class

My old school collection is growing! In addition to the two-screw clip original CPM-440V Millie and the ATS-55 Civvie, I have just received what I believe to be my oldest Spydie to date, a G-2 Stainless Snap-It! Also have an AUS-8 Endura on the way... crazy how ALL of my "classic" 90s era Spydies are serrated! Not one plainedge old-school, yet, until I make a move this week on something special.

Biggest hole on a Spyderco yet, bigger than the PM2 or Yojumbo. Thinking of using this, as it's value is lower than the others and it just seems nice. It's quite sharp, anyone use G-2 before?


It is my impression that G-2 knives are older than Gin-1 because Spyderco was not able to put the "Gin-1" steel designation on knives cause of a deal the company had with another knife manufacturer, so Sal made up the G-2 designation, "Good S--t Too", and eventually Spyderco pulled more sway and was able to list Gin-1.
