Camo black blade Tenacious for my son and S110V Manix 2 G10 for myself! Filled a large Spyderco knife roll and now I'm storing the overflow in a large cedar lined dresser. Having a blast collecting blades....

Sage 5 - February of this year.

Imo, one of the most underrated Spyderco knives. Could it be because its plain Jane S30V? This knife just melts into my hand, fantastic egos. Peel ply carbon fiber, compression lock, wire clip. What's not to love!?

Black FRN ATS-55 Cricket. Circa 2000.

It is so far the only Spyderco I’ve never sold. It also still frequently gets pocket time, though the liner lock face goes all the way to scale now.

The bug set C133SET back in 2012 for a keychain knife. S30V Manix 2 Oct 2014 as a gift. It escalated quickly from there.

Worker in ‘93 or ‘94. I probably still have the receipt, though I sold the knife a couple years ago. Second was a Q with the bug in the blade that my girlfriend at the time “claimed” then lost... the clip was not so secure. I do still have my third though, a Remote Release from ‘98.

Delica, first generation. My dad taught me how to haggle at a gun show for one. I wish I still had that knife.

my first knife was a spyderco ladybug back in 1993, hence the name. my next spyderco was a pacific salt se in 2016. i have lots of other knives (although probably not compared to a lot of people here), but spyderco holds the highest percentage in my collection.

First Spydie was a stainless se Delica my brother gave me. It was a beater with damage to the tip. Think it was in the mid to late 90's. Remember it being tough steel. Lost the knife and didn't get back into Spyderco's until 2009 or 2010. These things really have a way of multiplying. :o

S110V Blurple PM2

I find myself not really carrying it often because I'm just not a fan of the polished hardware and clip. It is a free falling, perfect action example and my first Spyderco which took me down the never ending spydie hole lol. I kick around the idea of selling it but just can't get myself to part with it.
