Favorite Spyderco 2017 Release So Far & Why

[KingRat]

Nothing for me either. I'm waiting on the Chinook 4 and Police 4. Everything released so far is too small for my taste.

[twinboysdad]

Nothing. Still waiting for Caly, Rhino and ATR.

No Maxamet Native yet?

[SF Native]

K390 urban for me. Great little knife.
Great steel, great size, so light.

Runners up would be s110v ukpk, lc200n mule.

[Afterman]

Polestar.

[abbazaba]

Will have to wait til Tuesday to confirm, but it might very well be the new Chaparral.

Nothing. Still waiting for Caly, Rhino and ATR.

No Maxamet Native yet?

No.
I never considered myself a steelnut. Also currently I have absolutely no need for super wear-resistant steel. I have four S110V Natives (two forum's, one CF and one LW). With my current use I will not have an opportunity to see this super wear resistance. On week days I carry one of my S35Vn, which are absolutely sufficient. For recycle days I have my S110V. No reason to spend $150 for steel.

K390 Urban for me too! It's also the only 2017 release I have at this point. Unless the Para 3 counts as a 2017 release. Either way, I'd still pick the Urban.

Nothing. Still waiting for Caly, Rhino and ATR.

No Maxamet Native yet?

Without a doubt, my Maxamet native. This steel is just fun. As for the Native, this is my third in 4 months, so yeah, I like the design. The other one is the Q-Ball, I don't have one yet (hoping for a sprint in a different steel), but I can tell I'm going to like that knife A LOT.

K390 Urban. Incredible steel. One of the sharpest knives out of the box that I have ever bought. I can't wait for the new Police with a big chunk of this steel!

Funny you mention; I was just looking at one. Looks like a great value at $66 or so.

Para 3 and Advocate. Para 3 is the perfect size and has all of the great features of the PM2. The Advocate orange peel titanium handle won me over when I picked one up at a show. The CPM-M4 steel is also a winner.

[Sully]

The K390 Urban, S110V UKPK, and Maxamet Native are all awesome, but for me they're all battling for second behind my lefty PM2.

One of those things where I knew I was excited about it, but I'd been using the regular ones for so long I didn't realize how much I was going to love it until I got it. Just an amazing gift to us Soutpaws.

have to agree with nate.
i never thought the lefty pm2 would exist and i cant put it down. amazing.

No doubt, Nate nailed it! Amen, shaztec.

The PM2LH speaks volumes about Spyderco. So appreciative.

I've really been enjoying the KC cruwear Manix. It's just a solid feeling knife with top notch fit and finish. The carbon fiber looks really cool too. A unique knife for sure.

[The Mastiff]

My Maxamet Native. It's an amazing steel on a very smooth, strong ,well engineered and constructed knife. I sure didn't see maxamet folding knives being available but here they are.

[TomAiello]

Maxamet Manix 2.

Honorable mention to the Urban k390.

I also like the s110v UKPK quite a lot.

Now I want to see if the new Chaparral dethrones the Maxamet Manix.

Haven't gotten any new releases this year as of yet. The S110V UKPK is calling my name more than any others that are currently available. Other than that I really want that new Tasman Salt whenever it comes out.

[palonej]

The amazing Advocate!!
Great steel, great texture on handles, fantastic blade profile, soooooo thin, extremely comfy in hand, freaky good flipper and WOW does it slice!!

Haven't bought a new Spydie yet this year. Funds are tight and I am holding out for the Police4 and Caly3 HAP40. I may also pick up a M4 Military at some point.

[anycal]

Police 4, because it hasn't been released yet, and I want it, bad.

Although I have acquired several knives this year, none of them are 2017 release. Three 2017 knives I almost got (was ready to hit 'submit', but changed my mind in the last second),
- KW Military - already have a Military and holding out for Police 4
- New Manix 2 backlock - waiting for a different flavor, either all black or different steel
- Native 5 Maxamet - already have N5, so waiting/hoping for PM2 in Maxamet

[dplafoll]

I haven't picked up any of the new releases just yet, unless you count the Sage 5 which was "new" in the 2017 catalog but came out at the end of '16. I'm looking forward to the Caly3 HAP40 sprint, though.

[greencobra]

para 3. bought this on a whim and having never owned a military or paramilitary, didn't know what to expect. pretty sweet knife for the money.
