10 Spydies in 6 months and counting. There are 3 more I have spydie senses focused on...
There are 2 options for you Spyderco Tenacious and the Polestar. Polestar has better steal but neither of them have steel as good as the base PM2. I had a Tenacious for a long time and loved it until I could afford aBut I got a little side tracked. My first Spyderco was a PM3. It had me wondering, "why would I want a bigger version of this?" I picked up an S110v PM2. Much preferred the PM2 because I thought the difference between the two while in pocket was extremely negligible. What I would do for a PM2 without a choil...
The Tenacious is an EXCELLENT
knife.
The action is as smooth as some of higher end Spydies.
I have been a Benchmade/ZT/Microtech man until today. I was at the local Wal-Mart grabbing some ammo and I saw a Spyderco knife in the case. I didn't know they carried them so I took a look. I know it's a lower-end model (The Tenacious), but they had it on Clearance for $27 so I grabbed it. I figured for a "Beater" it would be OK. I was extremely pleased with the Out-Of-Box sharpness.
First Spyderco I used (not mine) was the Police. Back in mid 90's, used it for couple of weeks. Did't realize 20 years later I will have a bunch of Spydies.
My first purchased Spyderco was the Paramilitary 2. Although I no longer have my first one, PM2 is still my favorite.
