Wild weather time this part of the year. That was actually in the higher elevations of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Stretch 1 for today, one of my all time favorites.
Did not carry it much lately, but there were times when this model even competed with the Endura 4 for my favorite folder ever out of all brands (and I guess overall it will always be in my top three).
Seen here with another favorite of mine, the old(!) LM Juice series (these days even the newer (in my eyes downgraded) version is discontinued).
All of mine get carried and used (except the backup for my small "urban EDC" multitool option, the orange S2).
Sure, the Juices do have their limitations, but for their small packages they bring a lot to the table.
To me personally way superior to and a lot more versatile than for example a Skeletool (even more so, if one carries a dedicated locking folder anyway, as most of the folks here probably do).
I mean for about the same weight and a smaller package one additionally to what the Skeletool offers gets a woodsaw, an awl and scissors on the blue CS4 or an additional serrated blade, a wood and a diamond file on the yellow KF4...

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
I really like the grippy G10 scales on the new PM2 Salt…this was an old downed tree in the Etowah river I waded out to and fished from…it had a perfectly flat area to stand on but every time I caught a fish I had to watch my balance because it was deep on the side I was casting to and pretty dang cold

The blade is now 3” from tip to the scales, and the handle is now 4”, making the full open length 7”. It is definitely a choil only knife now if you want to have all four fingers on the handle.

And yes, nice knife and pic indeed!
