I'm sure many of you will recognize this game. ;)

1. Name the one Spyderco knife you would use exclusively. :spyder:

2. Name the one Spyderco you don't have but want to try out. :spyder:

3. Name the one Spyderco design you would "permanently retire".
:spyder:

This is supposed to be fun I insist on no hurt feelings please. :D

....

I'll go first,

1. Jade M4 PM 2

2. Lil Temperance

3. Stainless Steel handle Delica (remember I said no hurt feelings ;) )

*EDIT I changed my mind after reading this months spyderbyte :D

1. Manix 2 LW s110v
2. Karahawk
3. I'm tempted to say "PM2" just to hear the outcry. :) But seriously, I'm not sure. Maybe the Manix 2 LW in BD-1, because the price bump to go to a much better steel is so little. But I do understand the need for a low end price variant too.

PM2 (Any variant but especially CruWear (CruWear Millie close second)).

Police4 (I'm buying one) or ATR (Also buying the new one coming out, but I'd love to try an original).

This probably changes for me every few weeks, but:
1) Stretch CF handle zdp189 blade
2) The Sliver looks interesting
3) Karahawk, just not my thing personally.
