How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014
I'm curious to see just how out of control my spyderco buying for 2014 has been,
I think I'm around 20 for 2014 and will do a more detailed inventory this evening and update.
Pictures are also nice and encouraged in this pole, I've been needing to do a group shot so will be adding with my count update.

Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

Maybe 50 or so in 2014...I got 30 in one day at the SFO seconds sale! :eek: :D
Re: How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014
I'm a lightweight ... 5-10 ... it was actually 10 on the nose ... !
EDIT: Woops - just remembered the 4 I gifted, and 3 more that I picked up for myself earlier in the year - I just moved to the 15-20 category ... sorry for skewing the poll ... (guess I shoulda actually counted first, huh?)

According to my records, only 21 Spydies this year (and a surprising number of non-Spydies).

Re: How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014
Yeah I bought myself 11 at the seconds sale and 2 since then so that made 13 in one month. I also bought three for someone else at the seconds sale so really that made 16 in one month but I don't count those three. Not counting knives I bought for other people I am around 25 knives this year just for myself.
I guess my collection has gone from 6 to 31 just this year. I do plan on thinning the herd a little soon. I have resorted to carrying three knives at a time just so they can all get into the rotation. That wouldn't be a problem if I wasn't an edc geek with already heavily loaded pockets.
I have turned into a pants geek and if it wasn't for Propper and their tactical cargos I am not sure how I would carry all this stuff. :)

I think I am in the 10-15 category for purchases, but I may have lost count on a few.

10, not counting byrds. The zdp DF2, salt 1 and ladybug were given to my dad and the squeak will go to my mom when she gets back from an overseas trip. I might give the centofante to my brother, but he's been annoying lately.
I carry a serrated Robin2 at work, a Cara Cara Rescue 2 in the glove box, and a ZDP Dragonfly or Junior everywhere else. My PM2 sits on a shelf with a small assortment of Kershaws.
Waiting patiently for the Native 5 lightweight and the Lil' Temperance 2.

Sure, I know I am sick! Bought 23 Spyderco Knives in 7 months! But even if I never told my wife about the details, I think I am still rather fair since I bought her a very nice new Swiss Automatic Watch for her birthday- 3 days ago! -:)
OK, now no more money to spend! But it was fun as long as it lasted! And I have to take a serious shopping break now!
Not sure if that is a good excuse, but I am happy and my wife is happy! - :)

Wow, I'm the only one under 5. A slow year for me knife-wise, but that's ok. Do I make up for it by attending the Amsterdam Meet this upcoming year? I far prefer collecting experiences rather than objects.
Still a **** good year, though:
S90V Yojimbo 2
Bushcraft blank
D'allara drop point
Superblue Delica 4
204P PM2
Sage3 (award from calendar contest, not bought)

Just checked and it's 16 this year, if I count the all plastic GITD Delica Kit. :)

10-15 I think...but I may be glossing over a few in denial! :eek:
Re: How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014
I can account for 16 via online purchase histories. Three of those were byrds, and one of the byrds was a gift.
Re: How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014
Just two for me this year, a SE Caly 3 and a Chaparral 1.
Re: How many new Spyderco's have you purchased in 2014

Many more than last year, but less than few years ago:
Manix XL CF
Military Ti fluted
Caly3.5 x 3. One for myself and two as gifts to two friends
Native5 CF x2
Worker Dark Green
Lum Tanto Fixed blade. I wanted this knife for many years. Finaly I got it and love it.

Centofante3. Just couldn't resist a price.
