Was taking a picture for a buddy and thought I might as well post it.... here is a smaple of my collection. only about 6 knives missing and some duplicates of ones I have are not shown either.

Still looking to find which carbon fibre blade I am missing but believe it is only the cricket I am without, anyone know different ? The worker above the yellow mariner is a Gold TiNi model that was done post factory... very shiney finish.

Carbon Fibre Models shown are the Ladybug, Dragonfly, Delica, Police and 2 Civilians (one PE and one SE).
 
Nice collection. I hope more people will post. I would, but no digi-cam.

My collection of Spydies consists of only 3 so far though:

My EDC FRN PE Delica VG-10

A knife that attempted to unseat the Delica, but couldn't quite make it FRN PE Native S30V

My Dress Knife PE Lum Chinese w/ the Imperial Jade Green almite handle

Westicle, I wanna steal your collection! you got some really nice stuff that I wanted to have, like the CF PE civvie! Damn!!!
 
While I had these out of the spydie display tower for cleaning, I thought it was a good time for a group shot.

Some are easy to identify, some not so easy.

very nice recoil, I am a big Rescue.Mariner typpe fan and you have some I have never seen before, very nice. is the black blade an aftermarket coating ?
 
Wes,
I have also favored the rescue/mariner styles myself.

The black mariner is an original style without the vents or chamfered edges. According to Sal Glesser, there were 50 mariners done-up like this by Bodykote in the mid eighties to test out the use of a black finish.

The plain edge at the bottom is actually called the Paramedic, a variation of the Mariner when Spyderco was thinking of changing the Mariner name due to poor sales in countries that consider the word "Mariner" to be a bit derogatory.
The Paramedic did not have the mariner inscription on the blade and the clip side scale was made up of 2 pieces of steel similar to the original worker.

The 2 rescues are both "Ground Zero" versions.

Where is a place I can trade or sell my other knives. I have knives from other companies, and I want to collect Spydies only. What are my best options?:D
 
What is the history of the ground zero knives, I heard something about them.

care to email me better pic's ? my email is listed below.

I hope to get a stainless rescue jr. off ebay today, have to see how the auction goes.

Rescue's have been a passion of mine as well as the hawkbills.... my second ever spyderco was a black FRN rescue.

There are some others I don´t have here right now, e. g. the carbon fiber Police, a Jester, a second Worker and perhaps more.

On the picture are:
Starmate
Endura
Remote Release
Dragonfly
Meerkat
Worker SS
Kiwi SS
Ramco Laguiole
 
Danelle, I dont know alot about spyderco knives but that one on the far left (the hollowed out blade) is an awesome looking blade, very cool.
 
Thank you, it's a Spyderco "Q". I wish I had more..of everything!

Obviously my favorite is a Native..3 pictured here, including the blue G10..love it. It's the third one I've owned. The other two were stolen. (at two different times!)

Then there's 2 SS Natives, ( I actually have one more..it's around here somewhere). A Yellow rescue in perfect condition, a SS Delica (A gift from a forumite), a SS Police (my sons, he painted the handle black), and a SS mini police necklace.

I've had a lot more spydies over the years...but you know how that goes.
 
You guys have some really nice knives there. Now you showed them to me, I'm showing to you. Not shown here is a CF SE Delica and the green Jester. Well, used to be a green Jester, now it has stag handles with SS bolsters ;)

Westicle, apart from the Cricket, there could be the Michael Walker C22 what you're missing. I also noticed on the inner cover at The Spyderco Story a CF Copilot, a CF Pegassus and a CF Navigator.
