Love that one. If I wasn't a Spyderco fanboy I would likely be on the ZT bandwagon. My only complaint is a lot of their grinds are on the thick side.
I've only got 1, 0452cf. Nice knife, nice action but yeah thick grinds.
Also I think the heat treatment isn't quite right. Ive got 2 spydies with the same steel and I find ithem much better in edge retention and sharpening.

It won't fit in my pocket, and it's not a great photo, but here's the newest addition to my little family:

You could try a Salt 1. It's basically the same knife, with a blunter tip and rust proof steel.

Yeah but i like pointy tips, and just everything is perfect about the delica 3 for me.

I feel you. I reprofile the tips on all my salts because I like the Delica 3 style tips too.

It's been an occasional hiking buddy of mine. It's 42oz now, cause apparently 40oz wasn't quite enough!

A rare day without any Spyderco in my pockets.

Image

It'd be nice to see CTSBD1 in more Spydercos. I really like the steel.

I've got my ZT0460 with me today. While not for everyone, I really dig it.
My collection is ever changing!

Around the house and yard, my other "pocket" will typically have a Psykco 1111 fixed blade these days, to deal with raccoons, underbrush, etc. If I'm not around the house, or if I'm just kicking back, chances are you'll find a Todd Begg Sun Tzu Kwaiken, or a WE, or an older Reate / District 9.

This is the first non-Spyderco knife that I have bought in the past two years at least!
This thing is nice! In my opinion, it's a fantastic "modernized" take on a traditional folder!

The Lionsteel Roundhead - Titanium bolsters, Carbon fiber scales, M390 blade steel, and rounded liners/backspacer/spine!

I handled a few of those recently before I shipped them out to a friend, they were really nice pieces. The ram's horn especially caught my eye.

Got my first custom fixed blade in the mail just in time to take it out camping tonight.

Landi Knives EDC.

Image

The green Micarta was a little different than I expected but its growing on me. Ergonomics are really, really good. I was nervous the guard would feel a bit too shallow but using the knife its perfect. I'll be posting more on this knife in the near future.

Image

Also got my Dogfather with me :D

Bestech Swordfish. $52 and flips better than some $250 flippers I have. I'll get some pics up later.
Bestech is a great value imo...
