These knives make me wonder how it is that I've been collecting and using production and custom knives for as long as I have, and I'd never discovered these simple, sharp, inexpensive works of art.

Bought one and it sat around for a few weeks, then I used it for carving. These are my new favorites to be sure.

When Bob Lum passed away a couple of weeks ago, I pulled out my Spyderco/Lum Chinese folder and have been EDCing it ever since. Man, that's a great pocket knife.
 
I have a Spyderco Police that I have carried for over 15 years. I had it with me in the hospital when I was there for 2 months and used it for peeling fruit.

I remember the nurse commenting on how functional it was and how it could be sanitized because of its all stainless construction.

I was going to retire it prior to the hospital visit, but since then I carry it because it has seen the highs and lows including the lowest point in my life.
 
Gotta agree with lava lamp! Every day dress carry is my Spyderco Cricket. Use it as a money clip and a open everything piece!
 
I have a Queen 2 bladed Congress that I bought because I wanted a beater that I wouldn't feel bad about using for hard jobs. It is so comfortable in the hand, I end up using it far more than I ever thought I would.
