Spyderco's Salt knives are specific alloys for salt water. We have a very small one, and it's great.

I just got a
Dragonfly 2 Salt. I normally prefer a knife with more handle but I also wanted something that would be out of the way. I normally wear gloves when I'm diving so I'm not as worried about cutting my hand.
I normally have a
DGX buttpack attached to my backplate or buttrails. The Dragonfly 2 fits perfectly in the outside pocket/sheath. I just need to get a
lanyard. I used to have a
Dive Rite line cutter in that pocket but the blades always rust so I ditched it.
I have a titanium fixed blade knife on the belt of my backplate rig, but it's a pain in the ass to draw and put back. I usually only use it to clean stuff off buoys.
Not a huge fan of the whole strapped to the calf thing.
I considered the
Native 5 Salt since I EDC a
Native 5 G10 which I absolutel love, but I thought it might be too big. I don't think it fit into the pocket on my buttpack. That being said, I may still buy one down the road to replace my fixed blade. I was a little disappointed they didn't make that one in H2 steel though. Not sure if it would be worth holding out to see if they do.
