My sentimental knife is my second pattern FS Dagger because I have wanted one since I was a little kid and it is an important part of my countries history.

Of course I have a special Spyderco as well. I have wanted a fully serrated Police SS for almost as long as the FS. I finally got one this fall. Their is just something about a big serrated spyderco that looks so dramatic even if I
prefer a PE for most things. That is why another I must have spydy is the Massood model. That big curved blade just looks wicked.

My sentimental knife would have to be my Bark River Mini-Canadian. First knife I ever won, and first user I've gotten as an adult. As a result, I now have added 13 more knives to my small collection in a little over a year.
Current Spydies: D'Allara VG10 (Japan), Native PE (USA), Byrd Robin (China) :spyder:

My Delica 4 FRN foliage green in CE. It was my first Spyderco (had a byrd Robin before it), and a birthday gift from my girlfriend. I have used it more than any other Spyderco (Salt I yellow SE a close second). It is still my favorite and I usually have it near me.

Thank you for the thread. Brings many fond memories...
Boy is it hard to decide.
First, it would be Delica, my love. Problem is, I have to pick between a blonde and a brunette, respectively between my very first Delica (PE, ATS-55, FRN - many thanks Allen :D ), and the CF one (SE, VG-10), a gift from Sal himself:

Oh, and of course, there is always the Adventura :)

I guess mine would be the first Spyderco i ever purchased (prior to the true addiction)....it was an FRN Clip Black FRN Delica SE bought in the late 1980's at a gun/knife show in Florida.....at the same time I had bought a black-handled SE Rescue w/FRN Clip but that was lost to the river :o :)

Probably would have to be a FRN Jess Horn that was my first Spydie. It still feels just right and may have the perfect pivot-to-hole distance for comfortable opening for me.

My Caly Jnr,always on my person or very near by.(Along with my current EDC)
It was my first Spyderco and it led myself on the LONG road to find another blade that compares to it.(I realise that is only an excuse to increase my collection)
