What is your favorite spyderco knife?

What is your favorite Spyderco knife that you currently own?
-Paramilitary 2

What is your favorite Spyderco knife that you DON'T currently own?
-Southard
Which Spyderco do you wish you NEVER got rid of?
-Sold my Native 5, but things are looking up!
What is your Dream Spyderco knife?
- m390 Paramilitary 2.. or a Blue scale Southard ;)
 
Once upon a time it was the Endura because that was the only Spyderco I had. Thirteen years later I own about twenty Spyderco knives. Hands down favorite is the Military.
 
Favorite : Southard flipper. Oozes quality, smoothest production flipper I've handled to date.

Favorite never owned: Sage or Military, one of these will be next Spydie.

Favorite that I got rid of: Blue M390 PM2. This arrived the same day as my Southard, sold it 2 weeks later. No regrets, it returned a nice profit that offset the cost of the Southard.

Dream: Military with the blue fluted titanium scales.
 
Favorites owned and favorites of all: Para-Military2 and Manix 1 full size. I just got a Manix2 XL for my father in law. It's a really great knife, but I like the simplicity of the beefy lockback on the 1:st gen.

Favorite not owned: Hmmm.. probably Temperance 2. Spyderco's best fixed blade IMO.

Lost Spyderco: I've never gotten rid of any Spyderco knives, but I accidentally left my fully serrated ZDP 189 Delica in a library once, which saddens me to this day.

Dream Spyderco: Maybe a custom Para2 with contoured, machined scales in translucent G11 and titanium frame compression lock. Don't wanna think of the cost of that, but you said dream. :D
 
My favorite knife, period, is the Southard. I modified that fat G10 a bit, though. Favorite that I don't own (yet) is the Karahawk. I'd probably like the new flipper too. Dominoe? Dream knife would be something like the Southard, but with an Emerson bottle opener thingy and a little sharper jimping.
 
fav that i own: poliwog
fav that i used to own/want back: ppt. sucks because i lost it.
fav that i want to own: original paramilitary in OD/D2. i remember when they discontinued them and were selling them for like 90 bucks or something like that. still kickign myself for not getting one.

edit: Dream: probably a sage 2, but with a scotchbrite treatment on the TI, translucent g10 on the scale side and m4 for the blade

Favorite that I own: Big 1st Gen Lockback Manix - scalpel sharp and locked like a bank vault.

Favorite not owned: FB Kumho (sp?)

Favorite I got rid of and I regret? : The Renegade

Dream? Native 5 slip-it in Orange G10 and S110v
 
Favorite for work: Plain edge rescue. It's one of the most useful knives I've ever owned. I'm disappointed that plain edge rescues are no longer produced. I'd love one in S30V or VG10.
Favorite EDC: Centofante 4. This one spends more time in my pocket that any knife I've ever owned. If it were re-released, I'd buy two.
 
My absolute favorite is the Southard. For me it's a 3.5" XM-18 killer, particularly when bang-for-the-buck is taken into account. Nice comparo here for those who may be interested:

This video is funny in a way. The guy who made it keeps saying that the knives are totally different and then spends the entire video demonstrating how similar they are. :D

I'm not hankering after any other Spydercos at the moment. But that could change.

I only have 2 at the moment due to downsizing my collection to necessities and ones I'm fully satisfied with and will use. It's a toss up between my Customize Chokwe and Cricket Tattoo. Chokwe probably wins by a hair.

What is your favorite Spyderco knife that you DON'T currently own?
Dragonfly ZDP/Nishijin or Spyderco Tuff.

Which Spyderco do you wish you NEVER got rid of?
I kinda wish I would have kept my Etched Dragonfly or stainless Dragonfly in ATS-55.

What is your Dream Spyderco knife?
Titanium Frame Lock Spyderco Cricket, Blue Nishijin front scale, s110v blade, maybe make it a little bigger, oh and a tip up option.
Orrrr, Spyderco Chokwe in M4, Blue G-10/CF, Blue/Rainbow flamed ti lockside, More of a choil, and a Lanyard Hole.
 
My favorite Spy owned are Brad Southard and all my Para2, my favorite not owned is, by the moment, the Tusk. Also I never got rid of a Spyderco and my dream one is a Fluted Titanium Paramilitary 2
 
Favorite that I own is my Vallotton
That I do not own is the Military M390
My dream Spydie would be an M4 Vallotton....
I should have kept my Rock Lobster!
 
What is your favorite Spyderco knife that you currently own? My only one is my Manix 2 in S110V but even if I got more I'm sure it would still be my favorite

What is your favorite Spyderco knife that you DON'T currently own? Uhhhhhh.. all of them?

Which Spyderco do you wish you NEVER got rid of? Haven't gotten rid of any :D

What is your Dream Spyderco knife? A Manix 2 in S110V w/ carbon fiber scales and blue hardware
 
I thought my Sage 1 was the end all best EDC but the Caly 3.5 replaced it a few months back.
