Spyderco Forums

I have been a prolific collector for a long time, or Spyderholic. My collection was 466 Spyderco's at one time. But as they say life happens. Age, retirement, change in perspective. I took a step back to examine what I originally looked for in knives. My likes were larger combat style knives, G-10 ...

Original Military ATS 34 with the diamond engraved blade. Still have it. 464 Spyderco's later (minus 174 sold or traded), I would say it changed my perspective quite a bit.

Awesome, C46 is one of if not my favorite Spyderco, I have all iterations EXCEPT the M390. I could'nt justify the price at the time. All 8 of mine are NIB examples.

I use these Flambeau boxes with a piece of shelf liner in the bottom of each compartment. Holds 6 knives in each box, they stack nicely in the safe. I like the clear plastic to see in each box.

Darn! I didn't realize this was a restock and ordered it when I have the first one...I wish DLT would have stated that in their ads and release info. Maybe they did and I missed it. Off to the auction site.

Decided to order one, getting a little harder to find...should be here Saturday. I have the 1 guess I need the 2.
From the pics in this thread a little disappointed its not as "tank like" as the Techno 1. But I really like Ti.

Of my Spyderco's....
349 / 13 = 3.7%
The percent is up just a little bit because I just sold 36 Spyderco's last month.

I keep a serrated pacific salt (1st gen) in the truck. Also works well if I accidentally forget to put a knife in my pocket.

Me too, Yellow is easy to see also.

Stunning and the most expensive Para3 so far...

BentoBoxShop has them beat with the K390 Para3 Exclusive for $234.95 + $15 shipping.

Fortunately it was $175 when i bought it in 2019.

Stunning and the most expensive Para3 so far...

348/482 = 72%
Not counting 32 Spyderco's I pulled from the collection to sell soon.

Mine is the first collaboration and first made in Golden, CO - The C15 Bob Terzuola

It was my EDC while on duty for many years.

I have two (2) as well as a C19 Jr.

The C15 Terzuola was my 2nd Spyderco, C36 original Military in CPM 440V was my first.

31 Now... The final rush will probably be over tonight

By my count there have been 26 PM2 releases in the last 2 years, I bought them all except the "Lightweight Aluminum" versions. I may have bought those if they had not all dropped the same day, I didn't have $500 for that. PM2's have peaked a little bit, but you have to remember these exclusive ...

I'm just happy I never decided to try and collect all the PM2s

I think I would be happier if I had NOT tried to collect all the PM2s. This will be number 59 for me (If I get one)
