...which Spyderco should I get? It'll be an edc and I'm not really looking for something heavy duty. Right now I'm leaning toward the Chaparral, but I'm interested to see if you all have any suggestions.

Thanks,

Adam
 
Chaparral is a good choice, with a nice slim profile. I have one, but tend to give the Caly 3.5 the most pocket time. Caly 3 & 3.5 just feel terrific in hand.
 
Even though I have knives costing more than 10x as much, I usually have a Delica 4 in my pocket. It just works for my day to day cutting tasks.
 
Another vote for the caly, I used mine this weekend to cut up drywall most of the day, and my hands didnt hurt or anything. Ergonomics are outstanding! !
 
There are so many great Spyderco knives under $100. The FFG VG-10 Delicas and Enduras are in the $60 range. Or you can still get the ZDP-189 FFG Delica for less than $100. The lightweight Manix 2 in translucent blue or black is also great at around $75. You might also find a VG-10 Stretch for $75 or the ZDP-189 for around $100 if you shop around.
 
Thanks everyone, I ended up going with the Chaparral. Pretty excited about getting it.
 
Great choice, the Chaparral has been my most carried knife since I got it. I also strongly considered the Caly 3, but the best price I could find on one at the time was $30 more than the Chap. I went for the "bargain" and never looked back.
