Okay, what are the five most used Spydercos you have or have had? This is not just you 5 favs but your 5 favs that actually get used.

I will start.
1. Para PE
2. Rescue SE
3. Caylpso Jr. PE
4. Centofante II PE or SE, I like them both.
5. Police G-10 flat ground blade SE. I am looking for a PE version as well but I am always a day late and a dollar short when they come up. I think that would be much better than the SE on this model.
 
I keep a top 10 posted occasionally on another Forum but these are my current top 5:
C-44 Dyad
C-56 VG-10 Zowada
C-52 Burgundy Calypso PE ZDP-189
C-77 Spyderhawk
C-58 JD Smith
But let me tell you my top 5 or top 10 fluxuate quite often. There are so many great Spyders that it is truly a very tough call sometimes. :thumbup:
 
Spyderco Salt 1
Spyderco Atlantic Salt
Spyderco Native
Spyderco Yojimbo
Spyderco Catcherman (AUS8A)

In that order
 
In no particular order,

Persian
Grey Goddard
Salt I, PE
Endura, SS, PE
Manix, PE
 
Actually, this is easy for me, as I have exactly five Spydercos (so far)...

Para Military PE
Yojimbo
Manix 80mm PE
UK Pen Knife
CF Military

... and I love them all!

Delica SE
Para
Dodo
Lum Chinese
Native III

The fully serrated Delica is actually all you'd ever need to cut anything. Once you get one and use it for a while, the rest is all just hobby, collection, and gravy. But you know how it is...

The Para is tough as nails, ingeniously designed, and a pocket scalpel.

The Dodo eats packages for breakfast. "Yum," you can hear it say.

The Lum Chinese is gorgeous, slick, and another pocket scalpel.

I still don't care for the look of the Native, but the ergos and value are indisputable.
 
I should add that the Ocelot would jump to the top of the list if I had a spare, unnumbered one. Right now, it's still in the "too nice to use on anything but mail" category, which is unusual for me--but the Ossie is an unusually terrific knife.
 
1. FRN Delica/SE
2. Rescue 79mm
3. Paramil/SE
4. Pacific Salt/SE
5. Ti ATR/SE // Big Calypso/SE
 
Not in order of preference, but top 5 users are:

1.Para PE
2.Dodo PE
3.Harpy PE
4.Caly Jr. ZDP
5.Native PE(grown on me since getting for Christmas;))

The Dodo and Para see's the most pocket carry, but the Native finds it's way in a lot too.
 
I only get to list five? :D

Well, then, in no particular order

PE Millie
FRN Native
Dodo
Ocelot
ZDP Caly

Chuck
 
Stretch - my "almost every weekday" carry
Schempp Persian - my "almost all weekend" carry
Jester - burgundy micarta version - been on my key ring almost 3 years now
Kiwi - many flavors - my other weekday carry, for those moments when "political correctness" is required.
Calypso Jr. grey FRN VG-10 version - another great cutter, gets the nod when I want something light in my pocket.
 
Native (lightweight CPMS30V)
Stretch
Endura
Centofante III
Dodo

Those are my 5 most carried folders, but then the Spot gets a lot of carry time too.

I'm burning to get a Persian and a ParaMilitary this year.
 
FRN Delica/PE - probably my most used
Centofante III - trade off between this and Caly
Calypso Jr./Grey/PE
Paramilitary/PE - For the "heavy stuff"
Meerkat/PE - smaller stuff

Only 5 eh?:)
