If you had to reduce your collection to three models...

Post by vivi »

If you had to reduce your collection to three models...which three would it be?

1. Pacific Salt SE. EDC folder.

2. Swick 3 with G10 scales & Kydex sheath. Urban fixed blade.

3. Aqua Salt, PE. Camping / hiking fixed blade.

Those would cover all of my bases. What about you?

My raw, basic three "Go-To" Spyders are my M390 Military, ATS-55 Stainless RESCUE SE model and my H-1 Spyderhawk SE.

It would be painful because there are so many, many more I like for rotation and other uses but I could get by on those aforementioned three I just listed.

:bug-red-white I collect them all, and use them all! I use the excuse, "I'm trying to find the perfect one", but in reality, they are all perfect in their own way!

I'd be pretty sad about losing the rest, but I think I'd get by.

Military
Sliverax
?

I think the third will end up being an Autonomy. I've been jonesing for a new SE knife and I can't get this one out of my head. I'm pretty sure I can live without a fixed blade but I need some SE in there for variety. Maybe if the Sliverax is offered in another steel it will eventually overtake my Military obsession.
All SE all the time since 2017
