I have 3 spydies on the way right now. orange delica 4, translucent manix 2 and a yellow salt 1. This will take my spyderco collection up to 4 and i want to buy a couple more. I've been ordering from blade hq so i'd also like to know where most or some of you order your knives from.

My most recent purchase was a lefty Military from Knifecenter.com for $100. That was cheaper than any other place I looked.

I've been championing the vallotton I really suggest if you have the funds to try one of the higher end models like this it gives you an idea of how good they are .
The vallotton may not be around that long certainly not as long as a military and it really is awesome also a schempp rock would be a great step up too.

$100 is almost 130%< cheaper than uk prices I'm green you guys get such good prices .

I am totally thrilled with the Southard I got, nicer than any other knife I've had or handled

Cutlery Shoppe, Knife Center, New Graham Knives, Howes Knife Shop.
Congrats the new knives. It's funny, the more you get, the more you
want. It's like a drug addition.

+1 it is.
Buy whatever you like. Eventually you will buy all of them. Just matter of time.
If you want to buy financially smart, buy recently discontinued knives at discount price. Go to sierra trading post. Sign for dealflier. They will send you coupons. With 35% off and free shipping on orders over $100, nobody will beat them.
Good luck, have fan

My top choices Natives5, Calys, C83 Persian

I usually buy from knifeworks, knifecenter, or cutleryshop. If you only have enough funds for one purchase, i would set aside cash and wait for the s110v native 5 forum knife, and if u got enough for two, everyone needs a para2 :D

I've bought knives/sharpening stuff from several sites but the BEST two are Howe's and Cutlery Shoppe. Both have good competative prices and also are very good people to deal with when you need some special help.

It certainly is addictive but I like it here in the uk prices don't depreciate a lot so its a good investment if you collect + 1 for Howes as they sell custom kiridashi by my friend NPD.
I'm getting a custom sub hilt made as close to a vallatton as possible in a fixed version but my next spyderco will be a ti fluted military.
Then the karahawk plus a tenacious to mod for wooden scales ... See its dangerous :D .

i'm trying hard to find a para 2 and i'm going to order the southerd flipper the beginning of march. if you can find a link for that native 5 could you post it. i have the money to buy myself quite a few knives right now but i'm REALLY focusing on the flipper and a para 2. a friend of mine has 3 of them all different variations and it's something i really feel i NEED to have lol. as far as the flipper goes i'm really looking forward to that.

You might check out the discontinued ones at Cutlery Shoppe. Great prices on some cool knives.
