I've been admiring the photos and have enjoyed reading the posts for a couple of months and finally joined today. I really don't know much about the Spyderco knives, but hoping to learn........a lot.
I purchased several Spyderco knives last year and gave them for Christmas presents but managed to keep several for myself. I have the Ambitious, the Robin and Robin 2 and the Dragonfly with green sides. Hoping to acquire the Sage 1, Pingo and Anso Zulu soon.
I hope to be adding more as time goes by. I'd really, really like to have an orange dodo; as think they look awesome.
Thanks!
PB

I'm fairly new to Spydercos myself. I just started last year.

I too like the Orange scales on the Sprint runs Spyderco does now a and then. I'd like an Orange Manix 2. But they are $$$.

I will consider myself new although I've got about 2 years here, just not enough time around blades to be old....
I love my Dodo, it just feels great and might be my favourite in that regard.

Although I've got to say I'm jealous of your collection, we don't actually overlap on any of those. Welcome to the site, see you around.

Welcome to the forum PB. You already have a good start to your collection. I would recommend trying to get the Zulu first as it is now discontinued.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I tried to upload some pics but my file size was too large......I'll have to figure that one out. I was able to find a Zulu and it's on it's way!

SHAME on you NINJARYDER...don't you know it's not nice to tempt or exploit a new Spyder member! I've done my research and that is one beautiful Dodo, but I haven't found any in my price range..........yet :)
