You know you love Spyderco when you realize you can't remember the last time you had hair on either of your forearms. And you don't even care.

What? You didn't clean the blood off the blade first. :eek:

Seriously, I hope you are healing well.

You know you love spydies when you cut yourself and the first thing you do is check for is edge damage when you dropped the knife. :D

You know you love Spyderco when you leave for work with everything except your knife so you risk being late because you have to go back and get it.

When thinking about buying something you consider what Spyderco knife could be had for the same amount of money.

you know you love Spyderco when, whenever you drop the beloved blade, you try to catch it again to avoid damage, usually slicing your hand in the process

I consider myself a dedicated Spyderco fan, but I have to say Wouter's (Mr Blonde) honeymoon trip from the Netherlands to Golden is going to be very hard to top. ;)

You know you love Spyderco when you receive for your birthday a $400 wildly popular and well built folder from an esteemed competitor of Spyderco, and within a week it is pushed out of your pocket by a $50 Endura.

You know you love Spyderco when you would gladly invest 10+ hours of your time, and hundreds of dollars worth of tools (purchased exclusively for this task) ,modifying a Spyderco that cost under 80 bucks.

It is a great knife when you are willing to invest yourself in it. How much of yourself you invest is proportional to the true "value" you hold for the piece.
Thanks,
