  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Best Spyderco For The Money?

Small - cat
Medium - sage 1
largish - manix2

The cat is a seldom talked about knife but IMO it's an awesome small knife. One of my personal favorites.
 
Manix 2. S30V and textured G10 plus a sweet lock for $80. I'd buy one if I didn't already have a Para2.
 
Another vote for the Manix 2 XL. Made in USA, around $100, lots of jimping, blade opens and closes one-handed without touching the blade, ball lock, skeletionized liners
 
Hands down the Manix 2. It's compact, but with a beautiful stout blade. Ball lock system and great pocket clip. Plus, if you want a really lightweight edc, you can get the blue handle version. Or black just came out, too. The Manix 2 was my first "real" knife and I've never looked back! Good luck!
 
The Gayle Bradley - It's tough, classy-looking, and the right size for pretty much any job.
