If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I'm curious to see what everyone's July 2017 answer would be. Also I apologize in advance if this question frightens some of you, as it kinda frightens me thinking about it :D
For me currently it would be the S110v Manix 2. I have put this knife through more than it probably deserves and it continues to not skip a beat. Very ergonomic and a joy to use.
If you had to give up all but one, what would be your choice?

^ LW version, or G10? Common, you can't leave us hanging like that!

Complicated It was once a G10 version, but now resides in a Maxamet LW chassis... so my choice would be the LW rendition, only because of how much lighter it is, and I've got a thing for that wire clip.anycal wrote:^ LW version, or G10? Common, you can't leave us hanging like that!

After giving this some serious thought I had to change my selection.
My Mules are the knives I edc over all others and include the best combination of features for me personally. So it would have to be one of my Mules. But which one is the hard part. It might have to be my Maxamet Mule, as the "last Mule standing".

Spyderco Paramilitary 2 folding knife. If you are going to make me keep only one, you may as well choose the steel for me :mad:

Re: If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
At the moment, I am completely and utterly smitten with my Manix 2 LW, which just so happens to be the S110V version. Even with the HAP40 Endura and Pakkawood Delica, it is my most capable and delightful knife. It is therefore my choice for owning just one Spyderco of my currrent selection forever.
This may change once I get the CPM Cruwear Para 3, Rhino, Caly 3, etc., but for now, the Manix is my choice. I have even carried it every day since getting it in April.
However:
If the question were: "which of the selection would I sell now?," assuming we could purchase future models, I'd keep the HAP40 Endura due to the exclusivity of it being a difficult-to-attain-at-a-good-price sprint run.

Only one? Nope! Can't do it!
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

Currently I only have one Spyderco, so, easy choice. Native 5 LW DLC SpyderEdge.
Re: If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
M390 PM2. Perfect knife :)
Re: If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
I'd find it very hard to part with any of my Spyders but I doubt I could part with my Sprig. :eek:

Re: If you could keep only one Spyderco, which one would it be?
I too love my Sprig but if it was only one Spydie, the M390, S110v, or 204P Millie would be the one. The OP can pick it for me. :spyder:Bloke wrote:I'd find it very hard to part with any of my Spyders but I doubt I could part with my Sprig. :eek:

I think it fair to say Sprig for fixed blade and Millie for folder!Tdog wrote:I too love my Sprig but if it was only one Spydie, the M390, S110v, or 204P Millie would be the one.

Manix 2 Back Lock. This is a superior knife.
