Which Dalton do you have? Picture?
I promise myself to use my knives without fear no matter how much I spend on them.
I learned that from cigars, you will enjoy it much more smoking it than storing it.
The nice thing about a knife is isn't one use like a cigar.

I also do not collect to resale, I buy to enjoy. I don't think I could part with any of my nice knives.
Of course I try to buy knives in different sizes, brands and styles.
Some people have 12 Spydercos that are all very similar, I can't relate to that. Haha
The closest I have is two Brous blades but they are both different blade shapes and one is fixed and the other is a folder.
D2 tool steel is one of the best steels so I was able to justify these two blades of the same brand.

Does the Sebbie feel "that" amazing when you open it? I would like to try one out someday.

I buy knives with full intent to carry and use them, but something about knowing that the Dalton will never be made again makes me not want to carry it. Honestly I'll probably try to sell it somewhere down the road to fund the Sebbie purchase. And yes, it really does feel that amazing, the tolerances are so tight and lockup is very secure. When I buy one, it will probably be the last knife I purchase.

Cool thanks for sharing man. I will have to get my hands on the Sebbie someday. I still love the Striders though, they are so different than anything else out there. Maybe after I hold a Sebbie I will sell all my knives and buy it

Militia Recon...great knife, spring on it is super strong.

MurphysLaw · 02-18-2013, 12:57 PM

I'm thinking the Dalton and Microtech SOCOM-A could fully fund my Sebbie. The SOCOM is a great knife, just a little too much knife for my EDC needs.

I Can't Talk. I Only Have "1" Chris Reeve Sebenza, But About 15 Spydercos!

Are You Going To Use Each ZT For Different Tasks?

Greg, let's see some of that Sebbie!!!

emopunker2004 · 02-21-2013, 02:35 PM

I love this thing. It just feels like it's built like a tank. Especially compared to my Kershaw Blur

I wanna get a ZT0200 and have a guy make it look like this but with a different color and style grip scales.

Justin...what is this knife? Manufacture? Model? Pricepoint? Very nice!!

emopunker2004 · 02-22-2013, 04:40 AM

Do u use each Spyderco for different tasks?

MurphysLaw · 02-22-2013, 06:17 AM

Great looking Sebbie Greg!!! I think I'm going to sell off my Dalton and Microtech SOCOM to fund the purchase of one like it.

Any of the knife gurus have any idea what the Dalton pictured above (or a page or two back depending on your settings) may be currently?

The SOCOM I believe is an elite-a from 2002, not sure what they're going for either, any help with a value is appreciated.

longknocker · 02-22-2013, 06:25 AM

Sorry, Brian, No Idea On Value. I Do Know That A Few Of My Favorite Knives That I Sold On EB Several Years Ago Never Approached The Original Price I Paid For Them. I Love My CR, But I'm Afraid To Ding It Carrying It As An EDC.

It's like having a cigar you never smoke. Unless you plan to sell it, just use it with pride!
I am back to carrying my 0550 G2, love this knife. I really have no interest in any other ZTs, for me this is a perfect knife. Just need to find a nice scale for it, can't find any I like enough to spend $50-$100 on.
