Nothing but the Spyderco Bug for me :D








I think the rock salt would do fine in a survival situation.

[HotSoup]

Military.
Its iconic.

[Stephen]

The flagship should be either an Endura/Delica or the Native. They're the most common and probably the most recognized among the general knife community.

As far as the whole jungle scenario goes, I'd take a Rock Salt if I had a hatchet and saw, or a Forester if it was my only tool.


The thing is 1lb. :eek: Oh yeah. :cool:

[Evil D]

I would have to say either the Military or Endura/Delica but the Police is right there with'em.

[Frapiscide]

I'd vote Military or Endura/Delica.

[demtek9]

My vote is the Military. The Endura and Delica pays the bills if you know what I mean.

[SteelDragon]

I think that's what sets Spyderco apart from a lot of the others, Several models could be considered the flagship. But my choice for the jungle romp would be the original Manix.

[npueppke]

I'd hafta say the Police. It's been around for over 20 years IIRC. Also would second Delica and Military, they are iconic Spydercos as well.

[psychophipps]

The flagships of the Spyderco line are the Endura and Delica line of knives. 20+ years of constant improvement, innovation, and production. With umpteen well-selling variants they are obviously the big boys of the Spyderco lineup.

[MCM]

Its just personal preference really.

Probably my Temp 2, or Rock salt. Not too big, not too small.......
Those are my 2 favorite Spyderco fixed blades.

[Markous]

I'd vote for the Military.

I would have to agree :D

[ChrisR]

+1 for the Delica & Endura knives :) The Mili is a classic but then so are a few others ... but if you ask me which is definitively *the* Spyderco knife - it would be the Delica. They are ubiquitous - a great design that must be owned by millions of people worldwide and they are the one chosen for the anniversary and damascus specials :)

[zvir]

in long-term, of cause Military. but for today para2 is better!

[The Deacon]

Spyderco really does not have a single "flagship" model. For longevity, it has to be the Police, 26 years and still going strong. As Chris noted, the most ubiquitous, popular, and easily recoginized would be the Delica. For popularity with the "afi" community, the Military would be hard to beat.

Flagship = ATR Ti.

Workhorse? Ball-lock bounce test "failure" irrelevant: Manix2.

Jungle romp:
fixed=rock salt
folder=Ti millie

[gull wing]

This should be a POLL!

Since the other brands are of the Machismo type, it would have to be the Military.

Of course I don't like Spydercos because of machismo, but because they work.
I like tha Sage, Calypso Jr, etc, hardly the brute.

[Billy]

Hmmm, two different questions here soooo...

Flagship Model = Military
Lost in the Jungle/Deserted Island scenario - Rock Salt
