An Endura 3 CE with black coated blade. Still have it and carry it on occasion. My second was a Delica 3 CE olive drab with black blade, I paid $35.00 for it and only in the past few years did I realize that it was a sprint run. After I lost it. I bought both of those new in 2004 or 05, not sure which now.

My first was an SE Snap It in red with kraton inserts. I still have the knife over fifteen years later.

My friend was telling me about his knife with a hole in the blade (early 90s). I said there was no way I was going to get one. At the time I was into Benchmades. After a couple of months, I decided to try a Spyderco. I decided to get a black Delica plain edge with the molded clip. When I got the Delica, I found out why my friend liked them. They were so easy to open with the hole in the blade. I've bought tons of Spyderco over the years and guess what, that first Delica is still in my pocket.
FRN pro-grip CE with integral clip. Carried it and abused it for about seven years or so. Never knew much about spydies until I lost it and started looking to find another. Picked up a PE Delica 1 and an Endura 4 CE for a steal. Love them both. Best part is I found the Pro-grip later. Worst part is I lost the Endura. Now I need another.

Black blade tenacious. Got me hooked and I haven't bought a different brand since. I gave it to my brother for his birthday to show him the value of carrying a knife. It helped that I had some nicer spydies by then.

Resilience was my first, but the one that really caught me in the Spyder's web was the Para2.
Apparently, arachnophobia is not a condition from which I suffer.... :spyder:
