My EDC was for a few good years a Delica SE. It works very well. And if my testimony isn't enough, just ask Arend ;)

Either an Endura or Delica in CE FRN depending on the size you want. They are spyderco's most popular for a reason.

i'd say... absolutely get a pacific salt, SE -- the best workhorse knife spyderco has ever made. H1 steel is a major advantage... don't have to worry about rust EVER, is incredibly easy to clean, and work-hardens over time. :D

One of the Centofantes if you want a slicer, whatever looks good to you if that's not the priority.

You already have a bunch of bigger knives so I'd say try the Cricket. I think you'll be amazed at what this little knife can accomplish. For EDC it has it all:
1. It's people friendly.
2. It rides low on the pocket, can be used as a money clip cuz it's really thin and light weight.
3. Frame lock so lockup is rock solid and sturdy.
4. Hollow ground edge on a thin blade that is crazy sharp.

I've had one for about 3 years and it is still going strong. It's the knife I reach for 99% of the time. I do carry a larger folder and a Rat Izula if I need more, but I hardly do.

Give it a try, I think you'll be impressed.

Good luck with your hunt.
