it would be a tough choice between the starmate and the wegner, but the wegner would have to come out on top.

Hello, Ladies & Genlemen!Greetings from Europe.
It's good to join the Forum.My choice'd be the Starmate (mine of course, #562).It's a tough one.Never had any problem with it.
Just one more word: never leave without a backup.I suggest a serrated Native. Thank you for the opportunity.Go on Spyderco!

This is a painful question! I have know idea... I think I would carry my,ummm, let me think about this.... I think I would choose the SS Native. Just a great knife, and not too big.

Ehh, supposed to be Thorin... : )

Without hesitation: Military!!! (Used to use Calypso Jr Ltw, changed my mind - too small)

This one has it all. Flat ground, a useful blade length, not too thick (good for cutting and slicing), very good steel, superb ergonomics and moderate weight for such a "big" knife. A wonderful all purpose knife IMO.

And it looks great as well <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Have a knife´s day!

Paul, I'm with you. Whilst the Calypso Jr (in all it's configurations) is a great EDC, if I had to choose a knife which could do everything it would be the Military. I use mine a lot for cooking when I'm travelling and the flat grind is a real bonus. Of course my opinion might change if the large version of the Chinese Folder ever gets produced.

Don't worry that the world might end tomorrow, in Australia it's tomorrow already.

Only one? It would have to be a classic, a serrated S.S. Police.

Right now...My Native.

Once I get better with it, I suspect my Gunting may replace it as my daily favorite.

By far the most difficult question you could ask a spydernut.But I would say that my endura has went to work with me since it was born,but after 6 p.m.it magically transforms into a gunting

Someday my friends,I'll own em all!!!

I just faced this dilemma for REAL. I'm refocusing my collecting and had to choose one Spyderco to keep. The last two left were the Starmate and full size Wegner.
The Wegner is the one I kept. BUT I MISS my LITTLE BUDDIES! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Very had question. I dont hink a Person can own a Spyderco with out owning more than one, or at least wanting more than one. my pick (even tho i dont currently own it) would be a Bob Lum Tanto with the Bead blasted Ti handle. (*drool*) BTW where would i go about finding it if it is discontinued?
and for school carry a spydercard wouldnt be a bad idea....wouldnt want to get expelled
