Gateway Spydie Poll
We all started somewhere, and I've been curious to see how you all ended up loving Spyderco. So I've created this poll to get a better idea. I've tried to include everything I could think of and have included an "other" option for things I may have missed. Just be sure to describe below what the "other" is.
For me, it was the Tenacious with a black blade. I've never looked back.

My gate way was a ladybug I used that thing constantly loose in my pocket. One day I went to grab it and it was gone I was crushed. Then I decided to get a tenacious what a game changer! I now tend to buy knives I don't even need lol what an addiction.

Tenacious.
I actually owned two Spydies (identical snap its) for around 20 years before I bought another. The Tenacious (to replace a lost CRKT Lake Bandera) led me to another Tenacious, and then on to a lot more Spydies...
The value line is a serious gateway drug, and a great business policy for Spyderco.

Hey guys,
My first Spyderco was a se Delica 1 that I was gifted by a long time friend.
My first purchase was an original Viele that I got at SMKW.
That's the one that got me hooked.
The fit and finish, and the smoothness of opening made a lasting impression.
Fifty Spydercos later, and I still have a huge wish list.
Later,
Don

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, even if it is wrong.:rolleyes:
My first was a FRN Native, then many years later it was a standard black Delica that really pushed me over the edge, so I voted the FRN line. It's ironic that the Delica brought me in, but now I don't own one and really don't care to own another. I guess it's hard to go back to the softer drugs once you've graduated to the harder stuff lol.
All SE all the time since 2017

My first was the FRN Native, but it didn't really grab me like the first week I carried my FRN Delica 4. That was it, all over. I soon purchased a Manix 2, then Military and I was completely hooked with no sign of an end. I am still enjoying the rush of experiencing all the cute little spyder has to offer.
