My Spydies so far...
My Spydies so far...
Got me a decent camera at long last! Here are some of my collection so far...
Pink Manix 2. I ordered 2 of these but the dealer messed up so I'm still waiting for the other one. I'm very happy with the shade of pink but there's a smudge of red at the tip of the handle as it didn't come in a plastic baggie and some of the red ink from the box rubbed onto it.
Recommended for those always wanting a pink Manix. Only thing that would have made it perfect would be a FFG. Love the fact that it came with a polished clip.

I like the Native IV CF ... I'll have to try to compare one day with the Caly3 CF and the Sage CF ... would be nice to see how they compare :)
My spydies: Squeak, Tenacious, Terzuola, D'Allara, UKPK CF peel-ply pre-production, UKPK CF smooth pre-production, UKPK G10 orange leaf-blade, UKPK FRN grey drop-point, UKPK FRN maroon leaf-blade, Bug ... all PE blades :)

Nice collection! I'm still not sold on pink though :D

I don't have a Sage but yeah, I never thought about comparing it to the Caly CF. ZI do prefer the Caly though. Maybe it's the thumb ramp. I've grown so used to it I miss it when it isn't there.ChrisR wrote:I like the Native IV CF ...

FFG G10s
Ive had my Sprint Run Manix 2 :spyder: for about 3 months. It holds a great edge with the CTS-XHP steel its made out of. Solid lockups. My Delica 4 :spyder: with a full flat ground V10 blade, and foliage green g10 handles is also amazing. Cuts through anything like a hot knife through butter. A little pricey but definitely worth it. The G10 handles on both knives are exceptionally grippy. And no other blade can beat full flat ground. That aspect alone is worth the money! Super pleased with spyderco! :)

It's been a while since I bought a knife. In fact I've been selling off quite a few knives lately. With my health back in check I felt it was a great time to reward myself. The latest addition in my small Spyderco collection...

I don't usually like bright colours but I'm starting to think it looks great as a backdrop instead of my usual stark plain background. Somehow, the titanium looks way different from what they look like in the catalogues. In fact they colour shift is very apparent when the light hits it from different angles. It looks bluish green I suppose.

PM2, Sage 1, LadyBug3
My first Spyderco was the Sage. I liked it so much that I got the PM2, and then the LadyBug. I bought the neck knife from Fred Perrin in a show last summer, the guy is very nice and funny; I thought it fitted well among the spydies because of the shape and their collaborations in the past.
