Looks like a Dr. T Zulu Spear point to me. I have owned one.

That third one from the left is the closest thing to a folding KPH I've ever seen.

That is a Matt Bailey Model 2. I would really like to own one soon. I have contacted him about it actually!

So many nice folders in this thread!!!!

I love spydercos. My favorites are probably the sage 1 & 2, but I started carrying this delica with an added deep pocket clip one day about a year ago and it has been in my pocket ever since. Can't beat how light it is and how well it works.

Here are my folders that are in the daily rotation...

The Traditionals: GEC Bullnose, GEC Beer Scout and my grandpa's old Boker

The Others: Lionsteel SR-2, Ritter mini Grip with added DOAT scales, Gerber Model 2P Paul Knife circa 1977 and Benchmade's Paul 250

The CRKs: SM CF Insingo, LG Regular, LG 21 and the prize of the bunch is my LG Unique "Procession" Sebenza.

Love the wooden beer bead!

Apart from multitools I stick to Spyderco for my folders. Sal is a great guy (so is the rest of the family) and I like the company. Since I've been using them so long I have a hard time adjusting to folders without a hole to open them with.

Thanks. Fred, aka Wabi Sabi Skulls, aka Willy Digger makes lots of cool beads. I would recommend checking him out if you ever want to add a little flair.

I am not usually crazy about orange but those scales look great!

Just picked up this Koster Folding Bushcrafter from another forum member. (along side my favorite FF Bushcrafter) Seems to be a very well made knife...outstanding fit, finish and ergos. I've got a couple of Koster fixed blades that are of similar high quality. I'm interested in getting this one out in the field.

I see no Manix and no Gayle Bradley folder. They represent 2/3s of my folding knife collection and, IMHO, are two of the best knives Spyderco makes. That aside, you have a nice collection, and I agree with you about Sal.

I had a Manix, but I prefer other folders so I gifted it to a friend. I do have a Gayle Bradley 2 (couldn't really get along with the first one) which I carry a lot. I have lots of others that aren't pictured that have accumulated over the last 20 years

I have never been a huge Manix fan either, but I have hung on to the LW s110v version...it has seemed to have kinda grown on me. Also I am much preferring the GB 2 over the original as well. Nice CF collection you have there. I regret selling my CF Stretch and CF/m390 Millie, among others at times.

Thanks. I wasn't too happy with the original scales (color and texture) so the new scales are an improvement.
