Up until a few months ago I had only one. Purchased early 90's for work on ships. Almost lost it a few years ago, so I started carrying cheap knives. A friend ignited my re-interest in Spyderco when he bought a PM2. Bought the Byrds first before making the plunge into the more expensive ones. Next thing I know I have eight.

It's a slippery slope for sure.

Yes they do. Like rabbits.
Have you tried serrated H1 yet? It's pretty nice. A salt 1 or pacific salt would really round out the collection. :D

Yeah my first was about 6 months ago and I'm up to 9. There can be worse addictions :D

I was looking at the Pacific Salt Spyder Edge in black. The Endura 3 is actually SE. Love it, but would like the larger hole and jimping on thumb ramp. I think that would be the perfect work knife for me.SF Native wrote:Yes they do. Like rabbits.

Be careful, it only gets worse from here. Nice collection, BTW.
I have multiple knives from various makers, but for some reason, Spydercos just seem to gravitate towards me, or I to them, I am not certain. I have a bunch of them (but not nearly so many as some on this forum :eek: ).

Nice little collection you got there leadsled, people think we're kidding when we say we've been "Spyder bitten" but it is the truth I fear. Once bitten the illness only gets worse. I finally gave up a year or two ago and stopped even counting, you know its terminal when your going through your safe and start finding Spydies you don't even remember buying. :spyder: :D
Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

Re: These really do multiply when you aren't looking!
I remember the simple times when it was just me and my Endura... 50+ Spydies later and the only regrets I have are the ones that I didn't get to add to the family! :p
