That's a ton of knives I probably couldn't remember them all. What were/are your favorites?
 
I loved the Lums - Chinese & Tanto, I tried to get all of them in every configuration (and almost did so besides a blue Lum - so maybe I had more Lums - I did, I forgot to add the black-blades {the collection of Lums ended with the ZDP version when I discovered Busse})... The Chinook-I was one of my favorites (I tried for all of them too; before the Gen 3's - never had a CE Chinook-I but did have an S30v & 440v PE)... I still rotate a Para-Mil-1 & 2 (like the 1 more than the 2 {the camo-Para-1 gets most pocket-time, even more than my diamond-bed Sebbie})... The Persian (I have a G-10 version) is scary sharp & is also part of my rotation... I really liked the PE Civilian and SE Police... Loved my PE titanium ATR (not so much the SS version)... I liked the PE Gunting for some odd reason... My all-time favorite was the PE, S30v Lil-Temp!!! I've probably had more that I can't remember, but this is what I came up with after going thru Spyderco's catalog. It's more than I thought.

Edit: I used to love my Military's until the lock failed & I broke 3 tips which are not covered under warranty (they all broke in nearly the same spot and they were NOT being abused; 2 broke on a cutting board and 1 broke on a picnic table).

Thats quite an impressive collection, how many of them do you still have?
Click to expand...

Only about 15-20 tops (still the most folders by any company).
5-8 BM's
5-8 Kershaw's (ZT)
10+ misc.
2 Sebbies
1 Microtech (which is probably my favorite - Makora-II, 4.25" DE, OTF auto, S30v) - although it is sometimes carried, it's never been used. My Para-1 see's by far the most use; then my Para-2, then my Persian or Chinook-2 CE.
 
Nice. Here's mine--I keep a record of my Spyderco purchases, in order of when they were bought. These are all the current ones I own.
The only 2 I had and don't anymore are:
Spyderfly, bought around 2005, confiscated by cops a few years ago
Honeybee, gave to my sister for birthday

Current:
Tenacious
Endura FFG
Grasshopper
Ladybug
Stretch 2 VG-10
Sage I
Manix 2
Caly 3 CF
Manix 2 XHP
Dragonfly G-10
Red G-10 Persian
FG G-10 UKPK
Military Orange
Caly 3.5
Delica FFG (blue)
Michael Walker CF/ZDP
UKPK FRN Maroon
Ladybug Salt SE
Kiwi 3 Stag
Stretch CF
T-Mag
Sage 3
Para 2 S30v/Black G-10
Kopa Pearl
Chokwe
Urban Wharncliffe
Sage 2
Gayle Bradley
Superleaf
JD Smith (FG G-10 Sprint)

On pre-order:
Para 2 Gray G-10 Carpenter Sprint
Chaparral
Military Brown G-10 Carpenter Sprint


You've got quite a nice list, with a lot of classics I'd love to have. Too bad I really didn't get into Spyderco until last year. I would love to have a Li'l Temp, Burgundy/ZDP Caly Jr, C95 Manix, ATR, etc. Those are kind of my classic grails.

Can you specify, which ones? Also is it original Persian or Persian2?
Click to expand...

2 or 3 Enduras (I think 2), 2 Delicas, Persian-2 (black G-10), 2 Para-Millies (1 Para-1, 1 Para-2), 2 Kopas (MOP & tiger coral) 2 Crickets (1 SS PE, 1 SE frn), Rescue, Chokwe, 2 Chinooks (Gen-2, 1 CE, 1 PE), Ladybug, SS-SE Police… and I think that’s it (I may have another Endura and Delica in my lock-box). Oh, and I still have one of my broken-tip Military’s. I wish I still had my Lum collection, my Chinook-1, my Ti. ATR and an S30v, PE leaf Lil’ Temp.

Very impressive as well! :thumbup:

. JDSpydo can verify the collection – maybe H. Lecter too.

I really do not need verification. I remember you from old time 2005-2006, when you were frequent on Spyderco Forum. I liked your old avatar.
I just was curious, what's left.

My bad, sorry about that. :o

NICE C5!:thumbup::thumbup:

That's one hell of a lot of Spydies! :cool:

Now that I've thought about it a little more, I'm positive I left some duplicates out; I had 5-7 J. Horns (forgot to add any Horns to the list), 3-5 J.D. Smiths, 4-6+ Manixs, 5-8 Guntings, probably 7-9 Lil T's, and etcetera...
 
My humble collection of Spyderco's have deminished into:

UKPK G10 Orange
Urban Slipit
Bob Terzuola Slipit
Sage 1
Gayle Bradley
Native III
Spyderco Ladybug 3 H1

Spyderco's I had but sold or traded away:
Delica 4
Delica 4 FFG Blue
Tenacious
Military Orange G10
Spyderco Caly 3


One Spyderco is in order and I hopefully get it soon:
Bob Lum Chinese Folder Carbon Fibre


I've always like Quality over Quanity idea. Small high quality collection. Too bad all Spyderco's are high quality... I could get all Spyderco's without regret, but I don't have money so I end up trading those away that I haven't carried in months. I don't believe in safe Queens. I guess currently my favourite handle material is Carbon Fibre and I've been eyeying out UKPK CF but not that seriously as I don't have much money. It took me 3 or 4 months to save up money for Bob Lum CF and delivery time is 2-4 months. I might get Dragonfly 2 in mean time.

Thank You, BlackNinja, I did a cut and paste of your list and adjusted from there.

Great Hobby, It gets expensive some months!
