Edit: just saw your edit and list. yes a Delica is a fine choice for edc. all good buzz btw, i voted for the Caly I don't want another Delica right now. If there was a FFG ZDP189 BRG maybe, but there isn't. I'm also consider...

Craving a new EDC Spydie

Time for a new midsize Spydie EDC. I'm leaning towards one or two, but I'll list out a few. I rhymed :cool: I've never had any of the Taiwan knives like the Sage's. I do prefer FFG like most and the USA models are always choice but not required.

I'm trying to avoid driving to the burbs or Wisconsin. There's at least one REI downtown but I think they stopped carrying Spyderco. I'd be ok with picking up an SAK or Leatherman. But I'm also using this as an excuse to pick up a new Spyder model I haven't owned yet. I could buy a cheap SAK and gif...

I think everyone is picking the Chicago for Chicago before even reading my post. I'm very undecided still.

Spyderco does offer a "chicago". Its compliant with the city laws. The Cat actually complies as well, under 2.5". They were overly compliant with the Chicago model. Squeak maybe? I like the Squeak! Though the UKPK is bigger and fills my hand using the same FRN Slipit formula, but the...

Inexpensive knife for vacation in Chicago

I'm in Chicago for the week and I didn't bring a knife because I didn't want to check luggage. I know I could have mailed myself a knife but I didn't. There aren't any knife stores in Chicago as far as I can tell so I'm going to order something and have it here in a day. I'm keeping it under $50 and...

I really wish I had watched his forum knife video. Anyone notice this??? He's having a "going out of business" sale but he's not calling it that.

There are MANY great Spyderco's on my LONG 2011 list but this Dfly2 Salt SE has pushed itself to the top. Should have one by next week!

I find the Catcherman an odd choice for a toxic green forum knife, even for us crazy USNers.

Knifeworks has a Spyderco discount until the end of May. I like them better. I think Poorfish is a drop-shipper like Your Corner Store. I don't like those places, they just can't have good customer service with that setup.

My Delica FFG has been my go-to knife and EDC recently even though I don't find it to be a very exciting blade, it just works. Now go try a Military!

Cool pic! I hardly ever see Calypso's, especially the micarta. I didn't realize they were new enough to have VG-10 blades. I would expect to see ATS-55. Never had one.
