I haven't purchased a knife in a while. Probably almost 6 months :). Anyways, I am looking to get a new spyderco. I have been looking at the s110v natives and am interested in the sage 5 which should come out soon. Here is a list of knives I have tried.

Still own:
- Para 2 in s30v
- Manix 2 in s30v
- Sage 2
- delica 4 in vg10
- dragonfly in vg10
- dragonfly salt
- tenacious


Knives I have tried or owned for a while:
- native 5
- endura 4
- sage 1


Any recommendations on what I should check out next?
 
I'll vote for the blurple Native 5. Mine just came in today, and I am impressed.

Military. Everyone should try a Millie. Don't let the tip down thing put you off, it works great on the Military.
Slysz Bowie. Expensive but utterly awesome. Like a bigger Sage 2.
 
Second the notion of trying out a Military! So much knife in a seemingly small feeling package. I've owned 4 in the past, sold them all to fund higher end knives, and came full circle repurchasing another one.

Just can't get away from the Millie.

Sage 2, Tenacious, and soon another Millie are the only other spydies that get pocket time aside from my Sebenza these days.

Based on my latest purchase I can highly recommend the Mantra. I'm really liking it, Delica sized/profile handle, PM2 length cutting edge, M4 steel, titanium framelock, smooth flipper, deep wire clip. It's a winner and seems very underrated which is a loss for those without one. Not the cheapest spyderco but it packs a lot in a single folder.

Rubicon. The highest quality feeling spyderco I have yet to use. A bit on the more expensive end of Spyderco though.

Mantra or Gayle Bradley would be my recommendations. Both of those have m4 blade so if you want fully stainless they may not be the call but aside from that they are both spectacular designs. M4 really isn't very had to care for either.
 
While I love all my Spydercos, I've really been loving the Domino. Just the perfect size for EDC and a decent little flipper. Build quality is similar to the Gayle Bradley.
