Model Name : C223GM4PBK Para 3 Exclusive

I chose this selection because I wanted to go with something different. Give an old exclusive model with some heavy use at work a calendar try! These knives are made to work and a G10 Para 3 in M4 proves just that. My lone remaining Para 3, have always loved this particular knife.

Here’s my submission for the calendar. My family was camping for the weekend while the Spydiechef handled food prep. We came across an old train car in the nearby town that the kids wanted to check out, which is in the background.

Good luck to all! Thanks for hosting this contest, Spyderco team.

While we were driving cross country last month moving from Utah to Ohio I convinced my wife that we should take a detour and stop in Golden, CO. It's the only time I have ever been there and my wife got me the super blue Delica for my birthday and she got herself the matching dragonfly. That was a fun day! This was the least planned of all the photos that I took in preparation for this year's calendar submission but it turned out great. We were on a walk with our daughter in my favorite metro park here in Ohio and we both were carrying our matching super blues so I borrowed hers for a quick photo. It turned out better than I expected! Hope you like it! :bug-red-white

My husband (RyanY) just posted his photo and while I was watching him edit and obsessively take photos this past week it got me thinking about my favorite knife picture. I took it a while ago while we were living in Utah. I do most of the cooking, and when we travel I always have my Spydiechef. It's not as good as a chef's knife but as was discussed in the "dream salt" thread it works better than any knife you will find in an Airbnb while traveling. I have even made full meals in national park picnic areas with it! So here is my photo of the Spydiechef sitting proudly on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. Seems like a fitting place for a Salt knife. (I read the rules carefully and it didn't say anything about two people from the same household participating but if I misunderstood please let me know and we can just go with my husband's picture as he would cry if I stole his spot :smirk )

Have spent the last week in California touring National Parks. My extended family and all the kids make a trip of several parks to visit every couple of years. Over 20 parks now we have all visited together. This picture is in Redwoods National Park on the coast. Pacific Salt featured on the Pacific.

Thank you again Spyderco for the chance to compete in the yearly contest, and good luck to all! My submission for this year:

Forum Name: Lumpy620
Model: Pacific Salt 2 Green LC200N (C91FGR2)
PXL_20230723_200141545_copy_2040x1536.jpg

Usually my submissions are members of the Native family of knives, as they tend to be my most carried Spydies.

This year however, I picked the Pacific Salt 2 LC200N version, ironically for a lot of the same reasons I like the Native series. It's a quintessential Spyderco in-house design, which has seen numerous iterations and CQI. In this case, the Pacific Salt 2 is descended from the Endura, which has been a, well, enduring part of the Spyderco evergreen lineup since almost the very beginning. Even all these years later Sal & company found a way to supercharge/switch-up the classic in new ways, and the Pacific Salt 2 is a prime example. This time of year, it becomes one of my most carried blades for work & play due to its ease of maintenance, corrosion resistance, weight, and ergonomics.

This photo was taken on a small, stone reflecting pool my father and I carved and shaped for my mother years ago, which been the base for some of my favorite Spydie photographs I have taken for both entries in this contest, and random leisure shots.

I do wish there was some confirmation email sent to verify the upload worked. 🤣. My slight OCD feels like I left the garage door open.

Models:REC exclusives C81GPCBBK2 pm2 and C223GPCB para 3 10v scorpions.
These two are hanging out with their exoskeleton friend. Watch out they bite!
The scorpion friend is hand made using a battery drill and ceiling wire. I picked these two because they are icons. The para 3 is the model that made me fall in love with Spyderco. I tend to have one of these two models on me at all times. Also scorpions are just amazing.

Spyderco Reinhold Rhino is a fantastic small knife with a nice pointy blade. Love the details on this knife, handle pattern, logos, materials used and build quality... everything is a top notch. Great knife for special events and Sunday leasure. Here it is resting in forest environment with a little friend.
