Mr JWC45 where the Sage 2 at??? :p

...Starmate (Discontinued but Sal recently confirmed this will be back for sure, most likely to be produced in Seki!!!!!!)

I'd prefer Golden. True to the original - and I generally prefer Golden over non.
 
Of the Knives I have owned and handled my personal favorites:

Sage 1 (current EDC and probably last........love it!)
Manix 2
Native 1
 
My top 3 are Para 2, Military and Manix2 but when the Lionspy comes in it may move into the top 3.

I'd prefer Taichung/Golden over Seki as well but Sal mentioned that Golden is backed up with new projects for the next few years and I think Taichung is at full capacity as well with the new models coming out this year.
 
I'll pick from a range of knives:

LBK: Jester. Ladybug would work too, but I just like the Jester's blade shape better.
Medium/large size general purpose EDC: Stretch (And believe me, this was a hard choice.)
Something showcasing the brand: SE Spyderhawk H1. Serrations and curved blades are both things Spyderco does very well.
 
1) Chinook 1
2) Chinook 2
3) Manix 2

I am a Spyderco lover, and the chinook 1 and 2 are my holy grail knives, surprised nobody mentioned them. And the manix 2 is my favorite EDC, it is so much knife for $70.
 
I own multiples of

Endura
Paramilitary2
Military

hmm... and a lot of Mules.
 
hey noddy, why would you change the caly3 zdp to vg-10? Isn't ZDP a better steel than VG-10? I remember there being a emmber that had a nice steel chart up.
 
Paramillie 2
Pacific Salt
Ladybug (prefferably H1, but VG-10 or ZDP-189 will do just fine)
 
Three current models that represent the very best of Spyderco:

Para 2 CTS-20CP US

Caly 3.5 Japan

Butch Vallotton Taiwan
 
Stretch 2 (any version, CF/ZDP ideal)
Caly 3 (ditto)
Chokwe

Stretch and Caly 3 are def my top 2, the third was kind of up for grabs (I wanted a larger one). I could have gone with the Military, but it's already gotten mentioned quite a bit. Also I love the Chokwe for it's blade shape, thin grind, smoothness and lock. The Sage series is definitely up there as well.
 
I guess mine would be, at least today:

Sage 2
Paramilitary CF
Delicas -all varieties

I have all three of these. Honorable mention goes to:

Perrin PPT
Caly 3 CF
Gayle Bradley
Paramilitary 1 in D2
Walker CF
Native CF
Manix 2
 
The three I like and carry the most are...
CF BG42 Military
Sage 1
FG drop point UKPK
