A serrated Police model several years ago. Ordered on the spot the first time I saw it's picture and still my favourite. It has a Spyder edge worker for (more polite) company.

First was a stainless handle Rescue, circa early 80's, next was a stainless worker, then a Delica and so on. Don't know how many I've got now, but nowhere near what NCBlades has!(jealous?, yup)

A plain Delica... still alone, but I'm 14 (can't get a job), so looks like he'll be the only child for a while (lots of attention!)

My first spyderco is the one I still carry. A stainless steel plain edge Executive, perfect for carrying in my dress pants everyday. (Have to look respectable you know)

A Native with the 50/50 blade. Followed soon after by a 50/50 Endura.

Mine, like many others, was the police model. I bought it at a store to don't see too often here in the north-east: a family owned "true" sporting goods store that your father grew up with. My police was made before the name was stamped on the blade- could anyone tell about when it was made?

Mine was a C05 standard serrated stainless steel handle which I bought back in 89 or 90 I it carried until Feb of this year when I bought a Delica which has snice been replaced with an Endura which will soon be replaced with an "R" knife which will bring my total to 8 with 2 kitchen knives.
In a world of compromise some men don't Spyderco and H&K the perfect combination

A Mariner, purchased in 1987, carried it every day since.

Serrated steel Police, bought in the late 80's. It gave me a lot of peace-of-mind when I lived in the big city. Then I moved to the 'burbs and stopped carrying it much. Someone broke in and stole it. Kind of ironic....

My first spyderco was a stainless police model (serrated) which was an academy graduation gift from my father (along with his badge). When I was assigned to watercraft patrol I let a stranded boater use it to cut away a skiline wrapped around his prop, he dropped it in the lake. I replaced the knife the next day (serrated endura) but I will always miss it (I couldn't replace it's true value). There has not been a single day since then that I have not carried and used a Spyderco knife. I have used mine to save lives, and seen others used as well.
My daily carry varies, most days a plainedge Military, others a Civilian(G10), Endura (serrated and Plain), Delica, Harpy (G-10) today a full size Calypso (plainedge), Moran, etc.
I can't wait for the Lum utility folder and Military Jr.

Stainless steel Police followed very quickly by a C19 Terzuola with aluminum scales and a 40% serrated blade. I love everything but the serrations.
