I’d say an S90V Orange Manix LW
That one is on my list, but I'll have to save more pennies for that one.

Re: What should I get?

Tenacious has more cutting edge bc it doesn't have a choil. The steel isn't the greatest but it's not too bad. Easy to sharpen. G10 with stainless liners would be nice change of pace from your usual frn knives unless you strongly prefer frn. I don't have much experience with G10, so it might be good

Could always buy the Para 3 LW and RIT dye the scales orange. Well under $140 for a great LW knife with a very easy to sharpen steel that is also stainless.
If I could lighten black to then be colored orange, that would be a very good possibility. But I'm not sure how to get black to orange

Re: What should I get?

I have owned the bugout and thought it was nice. Spyderco released the para 3 lw and i sold the bugout bc i greatly prefer the para 3 lw. Prefer para 3 lw bladeshape, grind, wire clip, and spyder hole. You could get the para 3 lw and an orange tenacious for $140ish. The tenacious really is a great ...

Re: What should I get?

If you are in no rush, just wait for the next cutlery shoppe exclusive. All their recent orange knives have been phenomenal, s90v LW Manix 2, XHP PM2 and PM3, etc. They all run easily over $200 used these days, but were within your budget when released. I suspect we will see an orange PM3 LW with X...

Re: What should I get?

Don't know if BURNT orange counts as "orange" for you, but out of the HAP40 sprints in this handle color at least Endura, Delica, Delica wharncliff, and Stretch 1 are still to be found, all for under 140, some even for under 100 USD. Also don't know if you want another Seki backlock (I th...

What about the orange tenacious from cutlery shoppe?
I've also thought about that one. I don't know how much interest I have in the Tenacious though.

What should I get?

I'm thinking of purchasing a new knife. Max budget $140ish. I'm collecting orange handled knives, but I can't decide if I want to get an orange knife, Para 3 LW (don't have a Para 3), or a Benchmade Bugout. The only Spydies I have now are the Endura, Delica, Dragonfly, and Ladybug. For reference, th...

Re: Centofante love?

OP, I was looking for an apple knife too for my lunchbox. I found a guy on BushcraftUSA who makes kydex sheaths for the 3-1/4” and 4” Victorinox paring knives. Perfect apple knife! I got the 4” Vicky. So go get in of those and order a Centofante! I myself am attracted to the wharnie version. A CQI ...

Re: Centofante love?

I'm sitting here with a Centofante in my cart, and I had a thought. Why not just get fancy scales for my Delica? If the Centofante is similar to a Delica, I feel like I could just dress mine up a bit. I'm probably the most indecisive person on the planet! Haha. I like the look of the Centofante, bu...

Re: Centofante love?

I think it’s one of the longest continuous production Spydercos. It’s not super popular. FRN was passé for a long time and hollow grinds still are for the most part. Also nobody really likes river construction. But... the blade is super thin and I’ve heard it’s an amazing slicer. There is a compres...

Centofante love?

While cruising around the web looking at Spydercos, I came across a blade I had never seen or heard of before, the Centofante 3. It checked a lot of boxes for me since I seem to always be searching for a gentleman knife for work that is large enough to cut my apple at lunch (one cut through the midd...

I wonder if they will need to expand the Golden factory again lol. Lots of nice stuff coming out of Golden these days... And everyone wants more sprints and exclusives.
Of course! It's more fun to have the "special" knives!

Para 3 LW Sprints/Exclusives

With the Para 3 LW out in the wild, when do you all think we'll start seeing sprints and exclusives? We all know it's going to happen right? I want a LW, but I'm holding out for that Cutlery Shoppe orange that's destined to happen. Who knows, I could be waiting months or I could be waiting years for...

Re: Ever regretted purchasing a Spyderco model or no?

The only one I regret is my very first Spydie, a blue Delica. I wish I bought orange since I have decided to collect orange Spydies. I'm not a fan of my Endura because I feel like it's too big, but I do carry it a lot when I'm not at work. I was also a little surprised at how small the Dragonfly was...
