Christmas (or Hannuka or Kwanza or Yule, whatever) is just a few pay periods away! What *one* Spyderco are you asking for?

I'm asking for a blue Stretch ZDP.

nice pick! I love my stretch, and from the looks of the "what have you cut today" thread, a lot of people like theirs a lot too!

Santa hasn't found me for a few years but I'd have to say something I'm not likely to be able to afford, but would love. The Spyderco O-1 tool steel fixed blade coming out for outdoor/camping type uses. I love tool steel knives, and this one is darn pretty as a side benefit. Spyderco FB26 Bushcraft. Very much up my alley.

I don't think I'll hold my breath though. I do hope it stays around a long time as I'd love to get one someday.

I think I will wait for the reissue of the lovely C22 Walker for my next Spydie.

So, for christmas it will likely be a list with a few really good cookbooks. "Momofuku" and "Ad Hoc" for example, or a book by Eric Ripert.

I'm thinking a Spyderench would be pretty cool. Or maybe a Stretch, or even a Caspian Salt. I think those, realistically would be my picks (might even buy one as an early Christmas present!)

No Spydercos this year but I did send a link to my wife for a PAWS Sebenza and showed the kids a Puma Bowie.

All I want for Christmas is more info on the Para 2.

Warrior for me please. If not out by then, I'd like a Chokwe.

2009 was a very successful Spyderco collecting year (being basically the only thing succesful for me though, it was a rough 11 months by now, and actually it seems the year is not through with me yet :( )

Anyway, concerning Spydies, I can't complain: with the Spyderhawk in my hand, the two recent forum knives behind me in the showcase, the black FRN CE Stretch in my pocket, the Chokwe on the way and a used NIB blue FRN Stretch sent to me from my good friend Manfred ("spyderpal" here) in Vienna, my knife budget is stretched WAY beyond maximum, but all the absolutely necessary Spydies are covered right now. (this wouldn't have been possible in the first place if it wasn't for Spydieguys and their ebay shop with incredible bargains from time to time. Thanks, Jess!)

Well, the Rock Salt for not much more than $100 is something that even our Santa over here could afford to put in his sleigh for me.... as the only big fixed knife I own is a D2 Ka-Bar :eek: .
That said, mostly ANY Spyderco I don't own yet would be more than welcome at my home... ;) the drop point FG UKPK is something new that would be actually LEGAL (:cool :) to carry here, as well as the new slipit Terzuola. #1 on my wishlist though is of course the new Sage 2 Ti. Being beyond my budget and too close in its properties to Spydies I already own or will own soon (though not all of them in the same knife of course), this fine work of art will continue to be something to dream of until times get better for me and my family, which isn't too likely right now.

It has been a tough year for all of us, but I do hope times will get better again, and honestly that's what I wish from Santa more than anything, even more than any Spydie. But he decides to give me one on top...oh well... :rolleyes:

That just might be the most awesome thing I've ever heard.

As for christmas I'm hoping for an E4 and E4 waved both in full SE.
