Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Shaman for sure!
  • Love the Shaman!
  • But I also carry a Shaman, Manix 2, Delica and Native 5 regularly.
  • If you want to go a bit cheaper I’d go with a full serrated Spyderco. Especially something like Shaman or Bodacious with the compression lock. Some of the best steel in the industry, great serrations, excellent one hand use.
  • A few of my favorite knife models are the spyderco manix 2, Shaman and Sage five.

Cons

  • For a large, beefy, folder NOT specifically for first responders Spyderco shaman
  • The only one where I’m sorta confident is the Shaman. The scales aren’t perfectly flat. If you set it down, it rocks slightly.
  • Shaman

Blorg’s favorite spyderco is tied between the pm2, shaman, and stovepipe

Shaman is pretty fucking robust. Not quite an Adamas, but it’s stout.
