Those look awesome Vivi. But being in a color that looks green and like those, what's not to like lol.

Well, I blame this on Vivi, but I just ordered the all black DLC and G10 Manix2 XL...

I blame @40mm for my latest purchase. I realized that a Dragonfly can likely handle anything I need a knife for, both at work and outside of it. It doesn't hurt that it's pretty much Spyderco's only solid FRN handled knife, and among its simplest.

That same knife was my first Manix 2 XL. When I opened the box, I thought to myself "what a beast", but it is so comfortable in my hand and it opens/closes so smoothly that it is now a favorite.
On the way is a Bodacious - I have neither a Shaman or Bodacious, so I'm looking forward to it.

Para 3 in 15v. It has been years since I owned a Para 3. Looking forward using the 15v blade.

I'm waiting on Dacks to cough up a Stretch 2 XL LW in K390. This will be my first K390 steel.

This one is a gem. Enjoying mine. I didn't carry it much when I first got it, but now it's spending more time in a pocket.
Did you go LW or G10?

Got two knives coming from National Knives. I’ve wanted the Swayback for a long time and I was finally able to order it. In addition to that I got a PM3 CPM 15V with G10 scales which will go nicely with the LW one I got earlier.
Sigh it looks like Michigan is playing pong with my knife order as it goes back and forth between the same post offices.

Went for the G10 version. It came crazy sharp out of the box
Good stuff!

90% of my Spyderco collection is FRN and FRCP. Lately, I’ve been concentrating on getting some upmarket models for variety.

The G10 is an awesome scales material but the Carbon Fiber/ G10 that Spyderco's have is really extra nice in your paw, least I like it.

This is not the G10/CF laminate, these are full carbon fiber scales, no liners
Love the contoured scales!

I’m very excited for mine. Also got a great deal on a serrated Chap Lightweight after selling my old pre-CQI version yesterday. So now I have two well-respected knives coming in.
Now I take a break until the 15v G-10 Native, BD1N Lil Native Lightweight or Blackout G10 Manix Salt hit.
