My stainless Dragonfly I got three days ago mainly because it is new but is also solid-what a locking click noise for such a small knife!, and it is pretty and the ergos are great for a small friendly looking knife.My standby is the green G10 FFG Endura.If someone said : "Get a knife" it would be the knife I would grab.Im eyeballing the Manix2 and Chinook3.I can't make up my mind and keep going back and forth,especially since I do not NEED another work knife/self defense blade.

I would have to say that my current favorite knife (has been for some time) is the spyderco military. Specifically the orange one :cool: .

I am always amazed at how well the military carries in pocket thanks to its relatively light weight and thin/uniform profile. Just an amazing do everything blade.

Only bad thing about it is that it scares the crap out of everyday people...

On another note I am also loving the Ed Schempp balance that I received a couple of days ago. quite a sturdy little knife.

Curiously, the Poliwog. It is fun but also very functional knife.

Well there are two knives that have been in my pocket all day. SE Calypso and Caly 3.5. The Calypso family is my favorite design from Spyderco. Im not sure I could pick one knife from that family to say its my favorite, but they all share some of my favorite design features though.

FRN Stretch ZDP. I am really impressed so far, but the handle seems so SMALL going back from my endura... Think I'm starting to catch the Millie fever =/

My two favorites and most used are the ZPD Lum Chinese and my BG-42 Military.

But I just got the M4 Military and it is too good not to put in the pocket.

The Chokwe it is for me. Supposing the binding liner on the one I had in a passaround was a lemon, I like it a lot.

It's a time proven design with the :spyder: -twist and a RIL + G-10 with a FFG thrown in for good measure. Can't go wrong with that, can you?

Consistent favorite is the Sage 1. Right now, I'm also splitting carry time with the FRN ZDP Stretch but I fondle and ogle the Phoenix the most. :)

I've said in the past that Spyderco doesn't do "pretty" well but the Phoenix made me a liar.

Grey FRN UKPK leaf.

Why? Its cheap and replaceable, yet Spyderco quality and sharp.
