Hello everybody! My name is T.J. and I’m a Spyderco addict. New to this forum, and relatively new to knife collecting. I have over 30 pieces and the vast majority are Spyderco’s. Anyway...cool place you got here and thank you for letting me be a part of it.

Welcome TJ!

Be careful! Hang around here much and your collection will grow exponentially in a short time. The enablers are brutal! Haha

Hey Salty,

Welcome.

Way way more here than meets the eye.

Check out the Forum’ search function (for revealing posts going way back two decades), the Spydiewiki project (for the sequence and characteristics of well over 250 Spyderco releases in just the C SKU category), and our own Reject’s wonderful photographs of his seemingly complete collection.

You’re going to have fun being amazed by what goes on here.

Hey T.J., welcome to the forum!

What's your favorite Spyderco so far, and why?
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
