Great Knife
I've been looking to get an H1 for a while and read several reviews before deciding to go with this one. Just about all the reviews I read said this knife was extremely ergonomic although it is a small knife. I can't believe how well this feels in hand! Razor sharp out of the box. I wasn't sure how I would like the thumbhole to open the knife (I've been kinda stuck on assisted openers) but after a year I don't know if I can go back! I put a short paracord lanyard on the keyhole to add a little extra weight and helps the grip better. In short, you cannot go wrong with this knife!

Great little knife!
Seeing as rust is not an issue where I live I will probably go with the VG-10 for the next one....and there will be a next one.

The Ladybug from Spyderco is an extremely light knife with good cutting abilities. The H! version of this knife is rust proof. This knife is clipless and its designed for keyring carry. The knife is lock back. The blade is just under 2 inches. Light, strong and sharp. In the pocket, it is not noticeable. It is so very light. H1 steel is a nitrogen containing steel with very little carbon. The steel is work hardened so the more one uses it the harder the edge will become. The normal range of RC is 69 to 60. This is a great EDC, useful for opening boxes and letters and those everyday tasks.

good for winter
Great knife for winter. I use the knife to open rock salt at work, I wanted a rust proof knife and this works like a charm around rock salt.

Excellent Compact Knife
This knife is being used as a pocket knife mostly while fishing and it fits the bill well. The blade was sharp enough to pop hair and locks securely. My only gripe is that one hand opening takes some practice if you have “slightly larger than average” hands.
