So far in the last 8 days, ebay and this forum (and another one that has some knife people on it too) has led to getting five additional Spydercos. I got my Dodo already ( :D ), and I'm waiting on a Harpy, a Snap-It, a Delica, and a Native.
Plus, I'm still waiting on a Navigator to come too...
I've gotten 13 Spydercos this year. This really is a dangerous place.
this is really an expensive place to visit....

I know it can be worse. Because I'm headed in that direction, and I know myself. I have the feeling I'll own 20 spydercos by the end of this year, and probably 25 by the time I've had my Cara Cara and Endura4 for a full year.bh49 wrote:It is not that bad. Can be worse. :D
It's an addiction...
I got my fix for today - my snap-it came. Needs some time on a sharpmaker, but overall I'm happy. It still locks up well, even though it looks like it's seen probably at least 10 years of use. That's what always impresses me about Spydercos - even after years of heavy use, you have a knife that's still just as solid as it was when it was new, and you can still count on it for many more years to come.
The same here. Just got Com. Worker about 10 minutes ago.malice4you wrote: It's an addiction...

18 so far this year, most likely will be two more Kopas, and if I see Black Lum Tanto for a decent price, I will not be able to resist.
Good luck.

Eventually you will have a knife for every conceivable job... which is good, because you will have to get several more in order to afford the knives.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

yeah as far as addictions/hobbies go this is pretty tame, expensive though. i think my first year of collecting i averaged a new knife every week. :eek:

Dang...I usually only own one folder that I use the bejeesus out of until it's time for a new one. I carry a backup folder for a few days until the replacement EDC arrives.
I tried my hand at collecting a couple years back & just sold all my safe queens last week - I didn't particularly need the $$$ but just felt they were not doing what they were intended to do, and that I was amassing superfluous possessions.
The longest time I've ever used a folder on an almost daily basis is an old custom CQC6 & after I retired it, my EDC was an FRN Native. The Native is now my drawer backup, my new EDC is an SnG.
