THE BEST SPYDERCO

which spyderco knife do you think is the over all best. I know everyone has there favorite, and people will ask best for what job but I just mean best overall. In dog shows they have the best lab or shepard best toy breed and so on. But then they compare all the different breeds and pick best in show. So the milli and jester and delica can all go at it for best spyderco knife ever. please try to remember design form function.



I must place my vote for the Wegner full size, very well put together great cutter great ATS34 and a knife I found shines no matter what its up against. 1 vote for the Wegner, how do you vote?

That's an easy one: C11PSBK (aka Delica Lightweight, combo edge)

The Military

Now in S30V. Designed by Sal for his son. You can't beat a father's love for producing the best design!

Full flat grind, G10, nested liner, thin, light, different grip options allowing you to choke up closer or use a hand-and-a-half grip, plus evolved over several models showing constant refinement, time tested.

The winner!

I'd have to say the plain edged VG-10 FRN Delica.

That's almost impossible. If I could name one the rest will have their feelings hurt.<img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> So I won't.<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Lately for me, it's been the G10 Rookie.

Right now, I'd have to go with the S30V Millie.

The one I like best is the G-10 Native followed by the Military and Lil' Temperance tied for second place.

THE OVER-ALL BEST KNIFE HAS TO BE THE PROVENATOR/PRO-GRIP II. THIS IS BASED ON SIZE, SHAPE, DURABILITY, AND FUNCTION. THE PERFECT EDC KNIFE.

Paramilitary! Well, when it arrives that is.... Delica PE otherwise.

It's definately the PE G-10 Native ....
although the PE Ti-Salsa is pretty much always clipped to my pocket ....
but then again the PE Military is probably the best all arounder ...
this would be easier if the PE Calypso Jnr wasn't the sharpest knife in my collection ....
talking of Calypsos .....

GHAAAA .... Noooo .... it's ... it's got to be ..... "thump" !

Walk softly, carry a big stick.

What a decision! Pulled my box of Spydercos out and pored over them. Have been carrying a Dyad Jr. Micarta for months now but it just doesn't quite get it. Pulled the Military aside as my choice. Nope, like Ted says, the Standard is the perfect EDC (for me anyway!) If I ever find a Wegner Jr. PE my priorities may change. Jerry

Most definetly, the FRN handled CE Delica.

Has to be the G10 SE Rookie (new style). The G10 PE Rookie was a close second followed by the SS PE Rookie and of course the Santa Fe Stoneworks PE Rookie for those dress-up occasions. Rookies rock!
