Thanks Red! :) That Delica's prepared a surprising amount of meals while out travelling, camping and at friend's places who only have dull kitchen knives!

Delica 4 in brown

Lots of Endura’s and Delica’s, pretty cool. I obviously need to find a Delica
I don’t trust people who don’t like dogs.

Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
Police SS maybe 10-15 years ago.
Saw it in a movie as a teenager, and my first reaction was - I NEED this. Immediately.
Bought it over ebay for 100 $ back when import from ebay sellers to my country was almost witchcraft.

I see that, I have been averaging one new Spyderco a week lately...

Delica 4 Gray. From amazon in 2010
Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
New guy here. My first Spyderco was a Delica 4 Desert Camo Zome that I got just over a year ago after an impulse buy on an sale website. The more I used knives from other companies, the more I went back to my Delica. It's a fantastic knife and it got me hooked on the Spydy life. I know own a total of three with the intention of buying a bunch more.

On top is my first Spyderco. Underneath that is my daughter’s first knife ever, I think she was 6 at the time (almost 8 now). She was very clear with me that it had to be pink lol. So that happened to be a Cutlery Shoppe exclusive.

My first Spyderco was a Delica back in the 90s. Unfortunately it was lost at the bottom of a swimming hole in Nantahala National Forest during a campout. Hopefully a lucky swimmer found her and gave her a new home.

Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
My first Spyderco was the ZDP-189 Stretch. I had only really handled the Endura and Delica before, but reading here on the forum helped me decide on the Stretch over either of those. Great knife. Unfortunately it didn't make it back from a backpacking trip one summer.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
The CE Endura 4 my son got for me. I loved it so much that I went looking for a Spyderco Forum...the rest is history!

Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
Purple Endura, VG-10. It was an eye opener. A few Spydies later I got a PM2. That became an eye closer, to other knife brands.

You told my story:-) I also saw Spyderco for the first time on the TV screen. Also a teenager.
This was in 1994. It was on MTV's "Sabotage" video by the "Beastie Boys". I said to myself "I want this knife." It was Spyderco Police:-)
You reminded me of this story. It's pretty funny.
I use translator most of the time.
There was a link to the old Spyderco catalogs.

Re: What was your 1st Spyderco?
Resilience. Walmart had several knives on clearance last year? I bought 4 of them from different stores along with some Rat 1's and Sog.
I gifted 1 Resilience, 2 Rat 1's, and 3 Sogs. When my brother in law visits from Colombia I will give him a Resilience. He really wants a Spyderco.
That was my gateway, I now have 24 Spydercos!
