2014 Spyderco Knife of the Year!!

[The Deacon]

Given the "limited to those knives who first saw light of day in standard dealer inventories in 2014" restriction, I'll have to go with the "new and improved" versions of the K05 Small Utility.

Easy, Manix2 LW CPM-S110V...

[gbelleh]

If the Manix was just a little bit easier to actually buy I might have gone with it for the value to 110V ratio.

They are available right now from several dealers for as low as $101.99.

[Willamette]

CPM-S110V Manix2 LW

[ohcyclist]

It is hard to pick a true favorite but I will go with the Yojimbo 2 in s90v and cf.

[NoFair]

Like it even better after grinding the "hump" off :D

[Bladewacked]

I like the cf Yojimbo 2 s90v

[Holland]

It's hard to beat the s110v Manix LW, however, for me personally the SB Dragonfly was a dream come true

Thats what I get for not checking. Just assumed they would be all sold out by now.

Still going to stick with my original answer due to the rare lock failure on the Manix line.

Ok...points counted, and according to the Spyderco Forum fans, the title of 2014 Spyderco Knife of the Year is awarded to:

:spyder: Manix 2 lightweight S110V in dark blue FRN. :spyder:



Second place is the Slysz Bowie with the Rubicon a close third. Honorable mention goes to the Yojimbo S90V Knifeworks exclusive.

Great shot, GS! This should be a shoo-in for the weekly photo contest next week!

[Evil D]

Can't agree more. That's the knife of the year across several brands if you ask me.

[elena86]

Inspired photo but wrong conclusion.This "poll" is way too "thin"

[Ray Allen]

Well let me add to the total for the Manix2 LW S110V. I bought quite a few Spyderco's this past year and it surely gets my vote.
Best...

[RadioactiveSpyder]

Perhaps next year we'll have 2 categories: the first being brand new models released that year for first time (Slysz Bowie, Rubicon) and the second being the best new iteration of an existing model, be it a standard release, sprint or exclusive (Manix 2 S110V, CF Yo2 S90V).

[gbelleh]

If we're talking brand new models, my vote would go to the Slysz Bowie.

[RadioactiveSpyder]

We all really know that the Slysz Bowie is the champ, I don't care what the numbers say!! :D

AMEN !!!

[ManixFan]

I would say that the S110v LtWt Manix got the most pocket time for me throughout the year - mainly because it is so pocket friendly in the summer time when it carries perfectly within lightweight shorts or track pants.

For me, would have to be the lil lionspy....love the size, love Elmax, very solid knive.
