Your vote for best looking Spyder?

#1

Post by catamount »

What is your favorite Spyder based solely on appearance?

Mine is the JD Smith (Thanks Peter1960 for the fantastic photo :) ).

I'm an admirer of Spyderco's designs. Using them is like immersing yourself in music or studying a painting in a museum. I buy some "fine" art but my preference is for usable art.

For me something looks beautiful when it works well. Therefore my vote goes to my C81 Para-Military.

Lum Chinese folder.
I think that is the Spyder with the most flowing lines i'll ever see!
Close to beating it is the Shabaria. I can't begin to say how much i like the blade on the Shabaria!

Lum fixed blade Tanto. Every time I look at mine I find a new line to it that I like.

Second would be the poliwog.

Tom, Your'e welcome!

The best looking Spyderco overall without any doubt is the Eduard Bradichansky Shabbaria with it's curves (ohhhh, what a name too) :p

I have some (I guess nice) pics on my hard disk. You will see them soon.

Can only speak for the knives I have...
It is hard for me to choose between Shabaria and JD. Smith.
Chinook 3 would follow.

Votes go to the Chinese Lum, Sharbaria, and the fat stump the Mini Manix.
