Very nice! Saltwater friendly and non-magnetic? What does he mean by, "side openers?" Thanks!
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Most of his Microtech knives are "out the front". Side openers open from the side

Very nice, Les. ::tu::
I've read and heard good things about those LUDT's, I hope to own or at the very least fire a copy some day!
Great color on your knife, too, and the best thing is, it's not serrated!

I'm not a big fan of serrated blades either.

Yep, I hear ya, Les.
Unless of course your regular activities involve cutting coarse materials like canvas seat-belts and such, but barring that I can find no special purpose for serrations on a knife blade.
A nice n' shiny dagger or spear-point single blade with a plain edge is what attracts me, and short of cutting extremely coarse materials it will serve me well.
