Which Spyderco should I get?

In ascending order of price...

Delica 4 - if you like your Endura you'll either love or hate its little brother.

C41 Native - decent knife, offers the simplicity that only a pinned construction, unlined FRN handled knife can.

FRN/VG-10 Stretch II -best ergonomics of any Spyderco model, period. If I were in the market for a user, it would be my hands down choice.

Manix 2 - excellent and reasonably priced heavy duty folder.

Sage I - great design, top shelf materials, excellent ergonomics, and superb fit and finish.

Don't get the Manix 2. If you do, then you'll want the sprint runs and then you'll want an original Manix. It's really a horrible slippery slope to financial ruin.

Really, though, the Manix 2i s a great knife for a great price. As mentioned earlier, the Stretch is another great value. Either would serve you well.
 
For <$100, I'd go with Manix 2. Truly a deserving knife to be on Spyderco's '10 product catalog because of it's value and bang for your $.
 
I would try to pick up a CF Caly 3 here on the exchange. I got one a few weeks ago for I think 105 shipped.
 
I would say definitely go For a Manix 2. Or if you don't like the Manix 2 go for the stretch 2. I got a manix 2 and i love it
 
stretch FRN. I got it because it's in between the sizes of a Delica and Endura.
 
Spyderco has so many good options. The Native 4 offers a really good value. You can find em for around $50, and you get S30V steel. I don't care for the Millie/Paramillie myself, but if you dig that design, I am sure you will like the blade.
 
Tenacious. Excellent folder for the money. Strong lock up, nice wide FFG blade, very sharp and easy to resharpen AND less than $50.
 
I'm gonna throw my vote in for either Manix 2 or Stretch 2 in FRN/VG-10. Two incredible bangs for the buck.
