    The first Spydie I had to have 2 of...............................

    It's just so easy to carry and use. What is it? I just had to have a 2nd Delica 4 FFG. You can see what Spydies I have in my Sig. The Delica will be the only one in duplicate.

    Monday I showed great restraint. I went to Denver and had lunch with my son. He works 1 exit away from the Golden exit. I left his office telling him I was headed to the Spydie store. Went the other way to avoid temptation.
    Thanks,
    jwh

    The first one I had to have two of was the PM2. I have 3 now. The next was the Military. I now have 2. I am thinking I want another Endura next, may in zdp189. But there are so many I dont have yet, and want to try. So many choices.........
    Thanks,

    There are 4 that I had to have 2 of. the Native 4, the blue ZDP Stretch 2, the M390 Military and the first run Gayle Bradley. Those are 4 of my favourite Spydercos...I do wish that I had 2 of the CF Michael Walker though.

    PM2. I have a second Tenacious on the way, but I just couldn't pass it up. I got both for $20 a piece. At that price your getting A LOT of knife.

    I've got two Manix2s, a black/black 154CM that was my EDC and only Spyderco for about a year. Then something snapped in late February this year and I bought one of the CPM-M4s. Loved it, but then went crazy and started buying everything else. The only other knife I've got a duplicate of is the Super Blue Caly 3.5. One as a user, one as a backup. I haven't touched the first Manix2 since, and I kind of feel like I'm neglecting it

    My first Spyderco was a Manix 2 that my son gave me about 10 months ago. It means too much to me to EDC but I carry it when we visit him.

    Serveral same models in different steels... Milis, PMs, mules and Calys. Not truely "duplicates" But I have 2 GBs, 2 Dodos, 2 Pikals, 2 Phoenixs, 3 DPUKPKs and 3 Lil'Temps.

    The only potential for multis on my radar would be a SB Stretch, should that ever materialize.

    I have a Delica from 10 years ago which I use mainly as a EDC. This is the one Spyderco blade I will buy soon as a duplicate. However, right now I am waiting for my first Endura. I am so excited.

    I think I have nine Militaries and PM2's total, all in super-steels. I don't have two of any other model. I like 'em.

    The PPT was the first knife I wanted two of but put it off cos I did not have cash,
    Then I needed another Para and that I bought and did not care for the cash,
    Then I saw a Millie that I wanted to have, and it was a dash to get one
    and now I have more knives than I can really use and am strapped again for cash.....

    Actually, cash side is okay. Saving up to get two more blades slowly. Funny thing was that I never thought I would really buy two of any version and never really got another PPT which I really like.

    Tony,
    I really would love to get an idea about your Kopa set. Pictures will be appreciated. Is it over 50?

    I feel the same way about the Delica. Carried one in the Army & as a civilian EMT. Currently I have a Tan FFG and the ZDP-189 SE version. Next will probably be the Emerson Wave Delica. Though I am seriously looking at a SE Salt - does it count as a Delica since it's a Delica 3 with a H1 blade?
