After years of hesitating, I finally decided which Spydie will fill the LC200N spot in my weird collection. Caribbean leaf SE blade inbound.

I wanted the Autonomy 2 to fill this spot, but had to learn that they are not legal in Germany. :-|| Lately I favored the upcoming Swick. Thing is that I'm not entirely sure I'd actually carry it. It's a very cool knife, from what we know. I might get one later eventually.

So it's gonna be a Caribbean. I like the look, I love the lock. I wouldn't have hesitated this long if the Caribbean had a finger choil - they are a preferred feature in my book. One can't have everything.

Not in the mail anymore but a SS PE Police just arrived Friday. I got it used but in excellent condition and have some minor mods to make on it but it is the first spyderco I have bought in about a decade.

Yes ... but CC numbered ... and had to pay a premium to get it. Not a bargain buy! :nauseated

GITD Delica, to go with my Jester. In fact one reason I got the Jester was to find out how well the GITD worked and how the handle looked in daylight and was happy with both. Am thinking of swapping a wharnie into the Delica.

There're some GITD Delicas on eBay for $90 with free shipping now.
K-390 on hand: Mule Team 17, Police 4 G-10, Endela (burlap micarta), Endela backup, Endura (canvas micarta), Straight Stretch (now blade-swapped with G-10 Stretch), Delica Wharncliffe, Dragonfly Wharncliffe, & Dragonfly Wharncliffe shorty mod

An old H1 Salt 1 off the 'Bay. Funny, I was going to post that I felt good having nothing on order then this one pops up.

K390 SS Stretch just ordered with DLT. Should be here by Wednesday at the latest. Now to find myself some aftermarket scales...
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

I got one new off the 'Bay a few months back. Had been looking for one for quite awhile. That and the original black Pac Salt are sort of iconic for me, some of the first Spydies that caught my eye.

You and me both, I'd like to try a serrated slipjoint and the UKPK looks real good in yellow.
Same goes for the K390 Stretch :(

Technically no longer in the mail as it was delivered an hour ago. A Para3 in S45. My 3rd Spyderco and my first Para-anything. And even though I really wanted a PM2, you bloody Americans keep buying them all before any make their way down under! ;)

Knife is great. Had quite a bit of side-to-side wiggle but a tiny (~1/16th turn) pinch-up on the pivot cured the majority of it, and got the blade more or less bang on centre (not my biggest concern, but it's nice). The handle suits my hand size really well. I wear a medium sized (motorcycle) glove, if that helps anyone. Compression lock is cool but most already know that. As to the pocket clip v lanyard hole position. I couldn't care less :)

Apologies for rambling.

Stretch 2 ZDP-189. I wanted one before they are all gone. The thread on Manix 2 killer pushed me over the edge.
