I've been noodling this thread for a while now and finally decided to post the question: Which no longer available Spyderco models do you wish you'd pulled the trigger on?

For me, it was the Dodo, the Karamit. and possibly the Temperance. If these models ever became available again, I would be a knife buying fool.

On the other hand, I'm so glad I purchased the Li'l Temp, Manix, and Mini-Manix Manix while I had the chance.
 
I was on a waiting list for a ZDP Lum, but canceled after a few weeks of waiting. Don't know if I'd have gotten one or not, but sometimes I wish I waited.
 
Manix, Dodo, the BG-42 and D2 Military's. :(

I did manage to get the D'Allara and S90V Military though. :)
 
The first mule! I have the second one, and it would have been a neat collection. Oh well :)
 
Oops I didn't read the op's opening statement thoroughly. I bought 5 D'allara drop points right before they were discontinued. I thought you meant models you wished were still made.
 
Can't say there are any I regret passing up. Do wish I'd gotten into Spyderco "kitchen sharps" a bit earlier and scored a couple K05P Small Utility knives before they disappeared off the face of the earth. Also wish I'd grabbed at least a couple more C83 Persians they were disco'd and a few more all stainless Kiwis when they were on closeout.

I acquired so many Spydies in the past year that I never figured I'd own, that I have to just say I will never own every single desirable one ever made and let it go at that.
