First spyderco I purchased was a se dragonfly in 1994-95

Favorite, probably the same. There are a few other models I like quite a bit, but I carry a dragonfly the most.

1993 bought a serrated Orange Rescue to coincide with my assignment to a Coast Guard patrol boat. Man I loved that knife, actually cut myself with it before I made it to the car after buying it (bled like ****). Carried it about 4 years and now sadly rests at the bottom of the Pacific. Current favorite is split between the Para3 and the Endela.

My first was the original micarta Wayne Goddard. My favorite today is the Manix 2 LW with PM2 almost equal to it.

First Spyderco was a Emerson Wave Endura.

Right now, my favorite Spyderco is a toss up between my Lil' Temperance 3 in K390 or my son's Para 3 in 15V.

EDIT: And soon I'm hoping it is the 15V Manix 2 LW w/ some AWT scales :bug-red

First - Para 3 Lightweight

Favorite - Impossible. Bodacious, Military 2, Swayback... and others.

There is a reason that the majority of my knives are Spyderco. One reason, but not the only reason, is Spyderco makes a lot of different and great models.
