I am just wondering out of all the knives you own what percentage of them are Spyderco. I am just a newbie to the forums and to knife collecting(although I have always had folding knives just never collected/accumulated) and about 80% of my folding knives are Spyderco and all 3 of my daily carries are. What about everyone else?

about 10%
funny thing, I thought I was the only one to calculate such ratio's.
BTW 10% of my whole accumulation (folding + fixed; factory + custom)

Two thirds of the folders I actually carry and use are Spyderco (currently the number is 4). The other one third are Benchmade (2). My other folders a kept for sentimental reasons but are retired from use...mostly Case...

I expect the percentage of Spyderco knives in my possession to increase over time. They have become my favorites.
 
Of locking single bladed folders 42.1%. To help you with math: 8 of 19. In a couple of days 45% as one is in mail

Aha! As a newbie I was thinking of posting the same question myself. My other knives are Boker Brend, Camillus Cyber and Klotzli, which are all fine knives but its Spydies from now on for this black duck!
 
Let’s see:
About 66.6% of the folders.

Too many fixed to count now - maybe when I’m home and really bored...

 
A little over half of what I own. For all practical purposes, 100% of what I carry on a daily basis.

The breakdown on manufacturers is as follows:
6 Benchmade
2 Kershaw
36 Spyderco
That works out to 81%
 
hmmm....Just under 50% of my folders, but some are retired, kept for sentiment, of my active carry knives... 75% or so.

Since they're very good, there shouldn't be any reason one had to have lots and lots of Spydercos, nor lots of other folders either, so a percentage doesn't say much, unless it's something like 0.944444...

In fact, a low percentage may say more about how well you like them. My C15 was the last folder I purchased for seven or eight years, I think.

100% of the knives in my pocket are Spyderco - all one of them and that's all I need.

I have 2 Spydercos (Military & Endura). Waiting for the Delica to arrive. Of folders, got 2 Benchmades, 1 Coldsteel, 1 Gerber, 2 balisongs, 1 Buck.

That will be 30% when my Delica arrives. However, by year end, I hope that it will surpass the 60% mark. Have my eye on several others. Only carrying Spyderco (Endura) now as main knife.

At this time - 10%. I'm sure that the percentages will grow.......

About 40 percent amounting to 55 Spydies and about 20 Benchmade with the others Micro Tech, Kershaw, Case, Boker, Buck, CRKT,AL Mar,Laquiole,ANtiques and 1 Elishewitz Custom Specter making up the last 20 percent.
