Spyderco Forums

Okay, the years almost over... So it 's about time to see what Spydies you bought this year.

I'll start the ball rolling....

It's been a real quiet year for me, I only picked up these two :

• C65TIP Lum Chinese
• C36S 440V SE Miliie (Yes another "backup" :p )

I had a good year :D

I just added them up, and I actually only bought 29 Spydies in 2011 (not counting current pre-orders). That's after buying well over 100 in 2010 (I had just been bitten, and had a lot of catching up to do).

From the looks of the catalog, I expect to buy 15 to 20 in 2012.

I've been out of the :spyder: loop lately, due to funds going towards some new CRKs, but I did pick these up during the year as well...

Military CE(old school with MILITARY stamped on blade)
PPT
Para 1(black blade)
Para 2(gave this one to my son)

Also have another Para 2 on the way from New Graham and will probably be ordering a Native 5 next week.... :D

Bought and kept:
Foliage green se endura
Native III pe
Lil Temp pe
Bought and returned:
Lightweight manix
Fluted military
Bought for GF:
Ladybug purple pe
Squeak

Couple o paras i might slip in right near the end...

i got three this year. para2, military, and salt 1.

I just started with my PM2, loving it. All I'm asking for for Christmas is spydies. Hopefully I can get to 2-3 by the end of the year :)

I started this year with Spyderco.
Byrd Robin 1 SS Seratted

...and going on :)

Let`s see:

So pretty much all my spydies except the Persistence i bought this year.

_____________________

Looking back at this list I think I may have gone a bit overboard, but I'm the only one counting and I have been cutting back my firearm purchases this year. Not to mention all the extra cash laying around from quitting smoking.
I have several on pre-order and by the looks of the catalog, this next year is going to be extra expensive.

It's been a wild first year. Hopefully the next will be just as exciting. I'm looking foreward to a Yo 2 and a Dodo.
