mule for camping
 
Delica 4 FFG for small EDC use.
Paramilitary 2 for larger working EDC.
Pacific Salt SE for boating and swimming use.
 
Paramilitary 2 - ULTIMATE EDC
Salsa - Im so sad its discontinued, its best smallish and none threatening for none knife people, edc folder I've ever seen.
Mule - mid size, utility fixed knife for a bit harder tasks.
 
Sheeple friendly office knife - Gayle Bradley Air
Best value EDC - Delica 4 FFG
Favorite all around EDC - PM2 (of course)
 
Everyday: FRN full flat Endura (ZDP-189 is fav.)
Need for something Big: Manix 2 XL
Special purpose beach/pool/rafting: Pacific Salt
 
Para 2 for all around edc
Salt 1 the ultimate beater
Delica 4 Just for sheer comfort
 
zdp ladybug - the most useful and oft-used knife you could have (but only slightly easier to open than a case xx peanut)
endura - slim and light enough for EDC, ergos good for defense situation, blade long enough to slice a leg of ham
military - light enough to carry, can do anything a "smaller" spyderco can do. in titanium, has enough snob appeal to make a cop nod and wink at me.
 
I pocket the Chaparral in CF and S30V more than any other Spyderco. It is small and the fine point and thin blade are useful.

I may have the Walker Linerlock in my pocket when I want a slightly smaller blade.

The Stretch in VG10 and FRN is waiting in the drawer for my next fishing trip. Unfortunately, it has been waiting and waiting.
 
Strech in any steel you like for a excellent edc, all round utility knife.
Bill moran, one of the best fixed blades i've ever held
pingo, take anywhere real knife.
 
#1 Delica for regular EDC
#2 Dragonfly for a more concealed carry
#3 Ladybug for light desk use (letters & packages mostly)

Junior - Best for food, prep and eating, I have no problem using this knife in a restaurant because it is very non-threatening looking.
Delica 4 FFG - Best for work, not really much to worry about, can slice boxes all day and not think twice about it.
Native 5 - Best for EDC, very, very attractive, good piercing tip, has a small, precise blade, and the second finger choil on the blade is next level ergo.
 
ladybug- keychain
small edc- caly 3
medium edc- southard
large edc- military
fixed- haven't tried any, yet. However, the street bowie has caught my interest.
 
For a beginner wanting to get a feel for Spyderco and not go broke over it I'd say the following three based on experience with them and/or current ownership:

1. Large Folder small price: Resilience - currently own and carry for EDC both on and off duty. Excellent folder, it's my poor mans Military with a slightly more user friendly shape. Perfect as a folding chef knife and great at woodwork. Four way pocket carry and a simple liner lock for the inexperienced. The price point for this is excellent for those of us who's knife norm is considered high end to others.

2. Good "average" sized folder: Endura/Pacific Salt- one of the almighty originals of spyderco and an oldie but goodie. All sorts if variations, blade grinds, Emerson wave, colors, etc. Good price point and a great bang for the buck. The Pacific Salt is the same size, weight, and price but with the awesomeness of being rust proof.

3. Small but good: Delica/Salt - the same as the Endura and Pacific Salt, multiple handle and blade configurations and the salt being rust proof. Inexpensive for most of "us" but still high end to a beginner.
