First Knife of 2018
What's catching your fancy to be your first spydie purchase in this new year? I'm trying to choose betwen the KC Native 5 and maybe Sliverax, or holding out for that DLC M4 Manix. Choices, choices...
Re: First Knife of 2018
Caribbean, which Sal expects to be released this month.

Hmm, that just complicated my decision process.wrdwrght wrote:Caribbean, which Sal expects to be released this month.
Re: First Knife of 2018
I bought it last year, but my fluted cf native will be here soon. First knife I plan on buying in 2018 is the Rhino.

Re: First Knife of 2018
Most likely a Caribbean as it's the only one that's really on my radar at the moment.

Para 3 Maxamet or Delica Trainer - depends on what will be delivered faster.

Re: First Knife of 2018
I'm looking for something a little smaller than my SE PM2. Only by a little. That CF fluted Native is smoking. That looks like the next one for me.

Caribbean
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!

Probably some discontinued for a donkey's age vintage model :D

A (yet to be announced) dealer exclusive version of the Shaman. I have no insider knowledge. Just wishful thinking.
Re: First Knife of 2018
Still have 5 Spydercos in the mail but they were ordered last year so don’t count.
The Caribbean looks great to me and will very likely be my next Spyderco. Still thinking about pulling the trigger on a discounted Southard before they are gone though.
Strangely, I also have a disturbing urge to own a Matriarch or a Civilian. I just love the blade shape for when in the woods. The Civilian is likely too much knife for me and the Matriarch is also much less expensive.
I would bet Caribbean though. :rolleyes:

Re: First Knife of 2018
Same here. Before that I had been looking at either a S110V Para 3 or Native 5. May have to get both of these as well. :DLiquid Cobra wrote:I wasn’t sure what it was gonna be, but then the bbs m390 Para 3 went up today.

Re: First Knife of 2018
Won the auction on a gold pearl Kiwi and bought a NIB 75mm Persian (old one with bolsters+micarta to complete the collection of the Persian, Red Persian and Kris) a few hours ago :D Good day for me, very bad day for the wallet!
Pretty big coincidence, but they're still out there, just bought the smaller one today!xceptnl wrote:Hunting for a bolstered micarta Persian...stay tuned

Re: First Knife of 2018
Hopefully the rhino and Hanan
Re: First Knife of 2018
Looks like it'll be the BBS M390 Para 3 and the BBS Lil' Matriarch for me. After this it should be one of the sprint run knives I have on pre-order. Calypso Jr SB, Delica Wharncliffe HAP40, Delica Vtoku-2, Dragonfly Vtoku-2, or Manbug Vtoku-2. Whichever drops first should be next...I hope.
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!
Re: First Knife of 2018
Cara Cara 2 for my new work knife. Just gotta decide if I want FRN or G10, CE or PE...
I also have a Spyderhawk and SB Caly Jr on pre-order. Somehow got the $38 price on the latter.

Re: First Knife of 2018
I am ahead of you. I pulled the trigger on KC Native yesterday. It will be the first :spyder: , which I will receive in 2018.senorsquare wrote:What's catching your fancy to be your first spydie purchase in this new year?

The first, which I will buy will be Rhino or ATR2, depends on which will come out the first.

My top choices Natives5, Calys, C83 Persian
