I have to agree, My PE G-10 Caly3 is the best all-around knife for anything short of nuclear war, in which case I'm going to the guns.

Another nod here for the G10 Caly 3. Though it is a very difficult decision to make considering my Kopas, Persians and Natives. Caly 3 has indeed been my servant of great virtue over the past few months.

Probably never happen for me either, but the choice would be an easy one - CF BG-42 Military.
I prefer to ask for forgiveness rather than permission.

Out of the ones I have, it would definitely be my Para-military. :cool: Although, I think I would choose the Stretch II if I had one.

My Stretch 2 is the one I'd keep. The 3 1/2" FFG blade works well at a wide variety of tasks, and makes for a great all around knife.

I'm an admirer of Spyderco's designs. Using them is like immersing yourself in music or studying a painting in a museum. I buy some "fine" art but my preference is for usable art.

If I had to sell all but one....I would keep the one my wife gave me (the Centofante 4).

I figure I could always pick up a Paramilitary again at a later date, which is my favorite Spydie. :)

Same for me (Dragonfly). It's always there right when you need it.

If only it were offered in H1...

For now the CPM S90V Military would be my pick.
Though I would be temped to keep the Forrester with its insanely comfortable handle.

It would depend on why I had to sell them. Since I can't think of any reason, including my immenent death and/or the end of the world for me to be selling them off, you'll have to give me a hint. ;)

At the moment... probably the mini Persian. In the future? Proably the Native IV.
