I have carried this Spyderco for many years around town, in the woods and on the boat in fresh and salt water. It has been immersed in both fresh and saltwater numerous times and I have had no problems with it. I do rinse it off in fresh water after being in salt, and I try to keep it oiled, but that is just regular preventative maintenance. Similar to a gun, you gotta take care of it.

CPM S30V is much more resistant to rust than 8cr13MOV. It also commands a higher price too. Gotta love the Paramilitary.

its spring loaded which is kinda illegal here i think but oh well.

Its nice to see a well worn knife. Just a fun fact. Camillus has gone out of business and many people are now finding their blades to be collectable.
