Best Looking Spyderco

[Petunia D. Feeble]

Let's face it, Spyderco isn't a brand known for its good looks. In fact, those not in the know would probably describe Spydies as some of the uglier knives on the market.

We know better though. What do you think is the best looking Spyderco? Please post a pic so we don't have to hunt it down.

I'm rather fond of these:

Mamba

Volpe

KC Exclusive Orange G10 Positron

I'm lucky enough to own one of the Positrons, but sadly haven't had my hands on a Volpe or a Mamba just yet.

I'm sure there's plenty of others out there. Lets see them.

Manix

The Military, of course. Or any off its off-springs.

I'm quite fond of the looks of the Mantra 1.

Also the DF2.

I don't care what anyone thinks, the Poliwog is sexy. I wish I had one of these.

Another one I always found aesthetically pleasing was the micarta Street Beat.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I've never thought Spyderco knives were bad looking.

I don't particular care for it in hand but I think the Rubicon is a great looking knife.

I think the PM2 looks fantastic, especially with the Blurple scales.

The Orange scaled Dodo looked awesome as well. Damn I regret selling mine.

100% agree. Here's mine.

Szabo. (Szabofly is sick too. I saw a real rainbow iridescent spyderfly).

Spyderco Kumo (Rerelease PLEASE SAL!!)

Techno

A few of my personal favorites:

 

[bikerector]

One more for the nirvana posted above. I think the fishhunter is sexy for it's lines, now if I only liked urine yellow as a handle color I would be tempted to grab one.

Their fixed blades are priced high compared to their folders, IMO, but they do have a few that look pretty good like the temperance and sprig.
Temperance 2

Sprig

 

[GasMan1]

Sage, the best looking Spyderco I own.

 

[Wowbagger]

Dudes . . . use smaller file sizes please . . . takes too long to load some of these photos.

anyway ,
some times I think the best looking is the Dragonfly in the British Green (ZDP-189).

Some times I think it is the Gayle Bradley One though I run hot and cold on the look of the blade it sure looks great when it is cutting something. I especially like the thick liners and spacers. Goes without saying the handles look great. Elegant BEEFINESS.

And then there is the Para 2 in Blurple (S110V) depends on the light I love it most of the time but some times I look at it and think "what was I thinking". Mostly I really like the blurple with the silver blade and clip very nice.

The GB2, Slysz Bowie, Nirvana and Shaman are all beautiful blades. I’m a sucker for stonewash

I love the poliwash(yes, I said poliwash. That's what it should be called.) that Spyderco does on blades like the bowie or the bd1 manix.

Beauty is indeed in the eyes of the beholder. I find it amusing that most of the knives listed so far are among what I personally deem the ugliest of the ugly, even for Spyderco. But that's okay, I don't generally buy knives to look at, and most of them work okay. I do like the looks of the original Poliwog, though.

 

[Lapedog]

One confused old dog. One sexy knife.

Two sexy Spydies. The Air is super underrated. Great tuxedo knife.

No need to post my own picture. I hadn't carried this for several weeks and then picked mine up again about 3 days ago. Perfection.
