So many wonderful photographs of so many wonderful blades. I thought I'd add my own meagre collection to the boards.
Been collecting for about a year. My current passion in the :spyder: line are the Kopa, Native (the one that got me started !), Persians, well.... and possibly a few more.
Here they are in no particular order. I hope that these photos will make some people buy more Spyderco's, just like all your photos have done the same for me :D
Enjoy
Dan

Military - CF scales - BG42 bladesteel
This thing is MASSIVE ! I didn't realise how large this folder is. Probably too large for a comfortable EDC for me. Awesome blade, handle and lock.
Very nice looking blade and surprisingly light for its length.

Delica 4 - Pink FRN !!!
The knife that Barbie would EDC if she was allowed to carry :p
I really love the counterpoint of the black clip against the shocking pink scales. Wishing that a black bladed pink handled version would come out. That would be very striking indeed !
Camparison with the Native III
Cheers

Knife pictures cannot be boring, not for me. Especially when they very well made, like yours.
Thank you.

Continuing on the blue theme. Here is one of the blades that has surprised me the most. An excellent blade that looks absolutely deadly should it be deployed and used to full potential.
With one of the weirdest looking handles, I assumed it would be uncomfortable and dismissed it....until I actually bought this knife. Surprisingly comfortable in the hand, and about the right size for me for use in SD situations.
Indexing divots positively position the knife in your hands, and the compression lock is rock solid !
Cheers
Dan
