Got my second Spyderco today in the form of a FRN Delica! I can say that these knives are top quality and i finally see what all the rave is about. I just have one question for you guys...Will I Ever stop buying them!? in the past week I have bought 2 and i cant stop! I think i've caught the SPyderco bug...Someone please help me!
 
I have dozens of Spydies and I am always thinking how I can justify buying another one. They are great knives. I am lusting for the UK Penknife right now. I was hoping the Mini Manix would have been smaller. Resistance is futile. Whup out the credit card and go for it.:D
 
Well, the choice is yours, either you can spend $100 on counselling, or you can buy another knife for that price :D
 
Nope - you're in deep now. I think I'm up to a dozen or so in a matter of about six months or so. For me, it's worse - I collect "others" as well. I figured that after finding a NIB Grey Caly Jr. and getting my 93mm Rescue a week or so ago, I would be done for a while. Then it dawned on me - I don't have one of new Byrd Crows or Ravens yet (I have a Meadowlark). About the time those hit the shelves here, it should be about right for the new Delica 4 and Mini-Manix to be arriving. I was in my favorite knife shop on the weekend and looked at the Polliwog and decided against it, but then I noticed that they had a Kumo there - it's priced "up there" for me but not unreachable with a little saving. I'm thinkin............. :) I was very careful in not picking it up. I got the feeling with that one that if I picked it up, it would have to be acquired on the spot instead of trying to get a better price online. Didn't walk out of there empty handed, though - ended up with a CRKT/Russ Kommer Kaiyuh (fixed blade). Unfortunately, I picked it up and fondled :D
