The Keepers
The Keepers
Since my pay was cut and prices on everything has risen I like many others have had to constrain or cut back on their :spyder: collections.
These are the keepers. The only one missing is the Caspian which is in my lunchbox. Then I think about the bug in my wallet
Don't think I'll lack sharp even though I've sold a few. I will say the edges on all but 3 or 4 have been enhanced.
A little FB heavy, but I do like the Mules. Appreciate your Spydercos :)

Agree JLS the mules are addictive. I'm a sheath short, but the SuperBlue resides in a knife block now :rolleyes: The edge on the modified mule is a little insane :D ...but the Mules are meant for playing. I have to see if I can improve my technique enough to get the edge on the modified Mule even more nutty :rolleyes:
The D'Fly and L'bug are both ZDP. Thre's still an H1 SE L'Bug on my keychain also. The littler blades are really nice, even down to the value line. They perform and it's gratifying to give one away to an individual who can appreciate it.
I do feel incredibly knife rich with what I have :) Especially so because most of the edges are my own. All credit goes to the company that produces this stuff. You know they like knives :D

I opened this thread just to look at your keepers again. I've sold a few lately because I didn't use them. I had made a display board. Lots of thought went into it. Scrap piece of 1"x8" pine. Added a few nails and I had a masterpiece. Spyderco had a great idea of putting a hole in the blade to use for hanging up our knives. Great insight. :) Anyway my board is a little lite now. There are a couple of new ones though (Kiwi, Native, Gayle Bradley). My goal is to have the board holding only knives I use (keepers). I had some that I never used. It's wierd but I had a blue handle Stretch that I loved but never used. I'm not sure why, it's a great knife. I just always grabbed something right next to it. Anyway someone now has it that enjoys it. I'm sure my Stretch misses me though.dbcad wrote:Since my pay was cut and prices on everything has risen I like many others have had to constrain or cut back on their :spyder: collections.

I'll state one (maybe 2) more thought and let the thread die. If folks find themselves in a position where it might be helpful to thin out a collection, make sure it's done with no regret. It took me about a month to come to my realization this time and accept it.
Lightening up has it's own rewards. I get cash in pocket, another knife nut gets a great deal, and you have a chance to do something nice for someone if you're so inclined.
No regrets, reaping some rewards, and still have plenty of sharp to choose from. With Spyderco I still feel truly knife rich :) I found the best production company for me.
The best part is that they're all very sharp :D
