It just doesn't get any better
Good choices so far guys :) However the best EDC Spyder barr none is the C-44 Big Dyad. With a set up of literally the best of both cutting worlds you have a full sized, sheepsfoot serrated blade along with a streamlined, flat grind, plain edged blade that is just so handy that there are few cutting jobs it can't do.
I have carried my Big Dyad for exactly 2 years this month. It has been a friend, a favorite tool and on several occasions a real life saver of a blade. Not to mention I can't hardly get through a workday without it. I think at this point I would fell more of a void being without my Big Dyad than with any other of my favorite Spyders.
Oh yes I have companion EDCs I carry with it. There is a rotation process I use. Right at this time I also carry my G-10 Harpy and ZDP-189 CAlypso JR.
What can I say??? LiFE IS GOOD here in Spyderville :cool:

Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!
For me it's the Para Military and the Caly 3, if I had a 75mm Persian, I'd probably consider it a "perfect" EDC for me, too.

For the tasks I use a knife that size to perform, the Kiwi is perfect straight out of the box. In a larger blade, the Stretch and C83 Schempp Persian come closest. Have a Persian out to Tom Krein getting a full flat grind, if he can get rid of all the hollow it will make an excellent knife even better for me. Also decided to have STR re-do the Stretch he customized for me in lignum vitae. The canvas micarta worked well but looked too utilitarian for my tastes.
