Product Description
Endura 4 Lightweight
CRAFTED FOR LIFE
If you already own a Delica or Endura, you have one of signature knives Spyderco makes. The knife you have just acquired is a bit different from the normal C10 Endura 4 and C11 Delica 4 Lightweights. They are now available in a range of new handle colors with full-flat ground blades. Their FRN (fiberglass reinforced nylon) handles come in new vibrant tones including blue, green, brown, gray, and purple. Molded onto the handle's surface is Bi-Directional Texturing for slip-free tactile traction. Inside the handle are dual skeletonized stainless steel liners which strengthen the knife without additional weight and double as an anchor for external and internal components to attach through generating more sturdiness and rigidity.
The blades are full flat-ground VG-10 with a thinner highly refined cutting edge and a larger 13mm opening hole. Added to the blade's spine is slip resistant jimping. Phosphor bronze washers smooth out the open/close action and the clip is upgraded to a four-way tip-up, tip-down, left-or right-handed clip.

The Short Review: 5 out of 5 stars.
For The Long Review ..... get a cup of coffee, pull up a chair, sit back, read on and enjoy......
This is MY review or in other words, a Blue Collar, Hard Working, knows up from down, the value of a dollar that's earned, rootsy kind of guy that wishes the IRS would stay out of his back pocket and God should stay in his heart. A Yes Sir and Yes Ma'am, bone fide Country Boy, straight shooting, hit your target dead on kinda review is what you are going to get from me, No Bullcrap! That's what you get with all my reviews and that goes for my review of the Endura 4 knife made by Spyderco.
Now for this review you should know that, I am a "Knife Guy" but I am NOT a Spyderco knife fan. I know Spyderco makes good knives and lots of different kinds but they just have never been my thing. Keep this in mind as you read on.
On a personal note there are a lot of people who are more knowledgeable than me when it comes to knives. Really the only thing that I can tell you about them is that the first toy my father gave me while I was still in the cradle was a bone handled Case pocket knife. I cut my teeth on that knife and I have never been without a "blade" of one kind or another ever since. So now after 50 years or so of all things knives, I can tell the ones that can cut it and the ones that cannot. (All stretching of the truth and puns intended.)
So, what do I think about the Spyderco Endura 4? Well let me tell you, the Endure can cut it and then some! I think it is a fantastic knife! I would give it 10 stars if I could. The only fault I have with the knife is how you flip open the knife blade. Instead of a thumb stud Spyderco uses a big hole (13mm) in the blade to catch your finger/thumb in to flip open the knife. This is more of me not being used to this style of opening system than the knife design so no points deducted. While I can flip open the blade on this knife (the blade has good bushings), it's just that I need more practice to be as fast as I would like to be with this knife. I need to add that this lock blade knife closes by pushing down the back spring indention. This can either be good or bad, just depends on your preference. It's fine for me on this knife.
With all that said the blade is 3 and 7/8 inches long with the edge of the blade being 3 and ½ inches long and comes razor sharp. The blade is more or less a drop point design and a true FFG- full flat grind. The widest point of the blade is 1 and ¼ inches at the hilt end. The blade is 1/8 inches at it's thickest along the top of the spine. The best thing and why the knife costs so much is the outstanding blade steel. Oh Yeah, we are talking fine Japanese steel here! The blade is VG-10 stainless steel made in Seki City - Japan! This is some Good Stuff here! (Keep in mind bang for buck. There are better steels made but they will cost you too.) VG-10 steel sharpens fairly easy and holds an edge well. While VG-10 steel will rust if exposed to moisture for sometime, normal blade maintenance will prevent this. Just dry the knife off and coat the blade with some light weight machine oil (3n1 oil or WD-40 works well). Use vegetable oil instead of machine oil if you will be using this knife for food preparation. Just use a small amount of oil (a few drops on each side of the blade). Wipe the oil on, then wipe it off the blade using an old clean rag, being careful not to cut yourself and that should do it.
My wife has a pink Spyderco Delica (its a little Endura) that I purchased for her several years ago and she has had no problems with this knife staying sharp or rusting and she uses it every day to cut up vegetables and fruits to eat. In fact her Delica is the reason I wanted an orange colored Endura for my birthday present this year. She had it engraved too for a super nice gift for me!
More about the knife....
The length of the knife open is 8 and ¾ inches long and 5 inches closed. The knife has a very functional slim black pocket clip that can be mounted on either side and on either end. This allows for the knife to be carried with tip up or tip down and right or left hand carry as so desired. The handles are what Spyderco calls FRN which stands for fiberglass reinforced nylon. I find them to offer great traction for your hand and the pattern reminds me of fish scales. It should also be noted that the handles are skeleton lined stainless steel for light weight and strength. According to the Spyderco website the knife weights 3.6 ozs. All I can say is for its size it is a lightweight knife.
The Spyderco Endura knife can be had in several different colors and the colors change from time to time. The changing colors adds to their collectability so if you see a color you like then you better be getting it while you can. I personally loved the orange color. I have lots of tactical black knives so the bright orange color was a nice change for me.
Also having an orange colored knife is a strange thing. You can pull out your "Orange" handled knife no matter what size it is and people just ignore it. Instead they act like it is a tool, a safety/rescue knife or box cutter, anything but what it is a razor sharp cutting machine. I pulled out this knife today in a restaurant to cut a steak and cheese sub in half and no one gave me a second glance. I have used my (small) black handled Kershaw Skyline knife to cut up a steak in a restaurant before and I thought they would call the police on me. People were almost freaking out, never mind everyone's restaurant supplied steak knife was larger that my Skyline knife. Good thing I did not use my knife to cut up the steak to resemble a gun. Seems like people have lost all common since these days, banishing a steak-pistol would probably have gotten someone killed as the "herd" stampeded for the door!
Well any-who, the bottom line is if you are looking for a great large size EDC (every-day carry) knife then the Endura might just be for you. If you need the same knife in just a little smaller and maybe in a friendlier version (great for smaller hands too) then get yourself a Spyderco Delica. Either way I think you'll enjoy your purchase for many years to come.
I am pretty-sure that Nutnfancy has a good video on this knife on "U-tube", it's worth a look-see. Just go to YouTube and type in the search box: "Nutnfancy Endura 4 review" and that should get you there. His reviews are like mine, a little long but you get a lot of information from them.
Thank you, for taking the time to read my review. I hope it was helpful and that you found a few grins in here somewhere. Take care and God Bless you! - Your Uncle Sawberry
First, the only bad news (and it really isn't that bad): The knife is larger than I expected. I had checked the size dimensions before ordering, but was still a bit suprised when I saw the knife in person (ok, this was a bit of an impulse buy). Instead of a clip carry EDC, for my tastes this is more of a pouch carry knife. The cutting edge of the blade is 3 7/16", plus about 1/4" of exposed steel (for pivoting clearance) before reaching the top of the handle. So technically you can call it 3.75" of extended steel when open. For me this makes the Endura a little too unwieldy for use as an EDC tool, but as a camping utility knife that I won't be afraid to treat like a step-child? You bet! Am I keeping it? Of course I am - it's phenomenal! Would I recommend it for EDC? Probably not, but your needs may be different.
The handle is a very handsome blue FRN with Spyderco's Volcano Grip texture, which allows excellent purchase while remaining light weight, and the addition of the skeletonized steel liners only beef it up even more. Total weight: 3.4 oz. Brilliant! The 5" inch length of the handle, again, makes it a little awkward for pocket carry, but gives you plenty of room to maneuver your hand for balance or light leverage. The pocket clip is 4-way adjustable for your carrying syle, and the handle incorporates a lanyard hole in case you decide to ditch the clip and attach a loop of paracord for convenience.
The blade locks using a standard pivoting lock-back, the quintessential folding knife lock, and still the strongest locking mechanism for a folder. It ain't going nowhere! Lockup is as solid as they come, with no noticeable wiggle at all. The blade itself is a beautiful leaf shaped, wicked-sharp, full flat ground VG-10: Versatile, strong, excellent edge retention, highly rust resistant, and easy to sharpen in the field. Perfect! Jimping (texturing) on the thumb ramp close to the deployment hole is functional and as good as it gets for secure purchase and control of the blade. Spyderco seems to have the perfect formula for this. Blade deployment can be loosened and loctite-d to your preference using a torx driver, or just wait for it to break in, as the action will improve with use. So far I've found it to be a little less smooth than other Spyderco's I've owned, but this may have to do with the necessity of where the pivot point is for this particular blade's size.
If there were anything that I would add to improve the knife, it would be a bit of molded jimping along the finger guard, like the Benchmade 550 has. The Endura has some of this along the spine going into the thumb ramp on top of the handle, but I think that a little on the bottom could help with control. Is it crucial? No, I'm just being nitpicky now. :)
Conclusion: Was this the knife that I was originally looking for? No. Am I keeping it? Absolutely! Would I recommend it for its intended use (subject to opinion)? In a heartbeat. Is there something similar that I would get instead as an EDC knife? The Spyderco Stretch Lightweight plain Edge Knife,Black is ordered and on the way!

Vienen grabados el material del filo VG10 y la fabricación en Japón, así que no hay duda que es auténtica y de gran calidad.
I own several knife that are much better than this one in that regard.
The blade is nice though and the knife once opened have a nice look and cut well. The tip is nice. But all other default are a no go for me ... very disappointed for my first Spyderco.
