    Blue Tenacious on the way!

    Anyone else notified that it's ready?
    I quit carrying my Tenacious a while back due to so many great Spydies in assorted colors. This may put the Tenacious back in pocket!!

    It looks really nice in blue (in pictures). Glad the Tenacious is finally getting some special attention .

    I got my email today and finished payment on it just a few minutes ago. I can not wait to see what all the talk is about on the tenacious.

    Mine have shipped! I've seen at least 2 online sellers that have them and one other seller that claims that they will have them. They do look nice from the few actual photos that I've seen, very similar to the M390 PM2.

    Base cost is about $32. Ebay and Paypal cost about 15%. So the seller makes about 6 bucks..that's no huge margin.
    Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

    I may have used the Tenacious more than any other knife. It is a solid knife
    and the price makes it easier to buy. I am glad that it is getting some variations.

    Just got it in. I now know why everyone says this is too much knife for the money. Feels great. The blue is almost like my sage 3, but just barely not as blue. Blade is very smooth and of course from Spyderco it is hair shaving sharp right out of the box.

    That looks great, Bacon!

    I never got a Tenacious but I may now. Oh and was anyone else shocked to see the green ones? I saw one on ebay and had no idea there would be green.

    I for one was. Trying to find another $40 out of my budget to go ahead and grab a green one.

    I really want a Japanese made tenacious with VG10.... and better G10. The fundamentals of this knife are awesome.
    You call that a knife? THIS is a Knife!

    i honestly might order one just to swap the lock side G-10 scale to a black one, which i have already, and have a "black and blue" tenacious...

    this is a great knife for the money and it is the sole reason for what got me obsessed with Spyderco!

    Great knife; really like the new color choices although I would hate to see this knife get too much of an up-grade. It goes against the entire being of this knife if it were to evolve into a $100 Spyderco. Performance and price point are at the very soul of the Tenacious.
