Spyderco’s website as well as Spydiewiki has your knife as well and the Pink/Purple version as Lone Star Wholesale Exclusives. I wonder how National Knives happen to have these knives for sale?

I wanted the Yellow/Green that you picked up, but it’s saying “out of stock” on the Lone Star website, so glad to see I can still pick it up through National how ever it’s possible.
As far as I can tell Lone Star is a distributor. So that would make these Zome Delicas distributor exclusives (vs. dealer exclusives). So National probably purchased through them.

Ahh...that makes sense. I also see why Lone Star ships free on order over $1000.

If it could be only one, it’d be a Cts204p or M390 pm2.

Tough choice. Don't know which one but it would probably come down to either the cruwear manix or either the 204p or 52100 Millie

Was going to start another thread about how great the Sprig is but thought an update to this thread might be more appropriate. I've been cleaning and sharpening my Sprig today. When this knife first came out, I was disappointed as imo it really didn't have the looks of Phil's B&T, and the grind was thicker than I'd hoped for. Having used the Sprig since it was first released, it is my favorite Spyderco. The kitchen knives may get more use, but the Sprig is truly a classic knife. I have a couple nice looking custom B&T's but the Sprig is just a better knife. I gifted my son one and he love's it. Not sure how long these will continue to be available, if you don't have the Sprig, you should definitely consider it, a classic blade. Wish I'd picked another one up when Ebay had a 20% off sale.

Although a BBS Para 3 is scheduled to arrive this afternoon, I don't expect it'll depose my Delica SE.

I have not had the opportunity to handle all of the Spyderco knives and there are quite a few that I'd like to own.

If I had to narrow it down to just one it would be the Jumpmaster 2 or the Bob Lum Darn Dao.
