I don't know which is my favorite, but I carry a Native lightweight for everyday carry (EDC). I have a Bob Lum Tanto and am quite fond of it also. I have a Native 2 engraved Glasshartt Special that I like very well but it stays at home on the shelf.

Favorite??

I have a new "favorite" each time I get a new knife!

Truthfully, for everyday it'd have to be not too intimidating, not too valuable, likely plain or maybe combo edge, hard to beat a Delica.
Or Calypso Jr.
Or Navigator.
Or...

For me, it's a toss-up between my PE Chinook, and my serrated (Massad) Ayoob.

Got to be the 440V pe Military.Althought I have a weak spot for the PE OD Endura that it took forever to find.Thanks again Al.

Hard to pick a favorite but if i had to it would be the Endura 50/50 in FRN. Ron

In the last 2 weeks, lasting probably till I get a job and the Lil Temp trailing point PE, it has been my 440V CE Millie...

It has to be the G-10 Police PE with the full flat grind of course.

***I'm glad you like the OD Endura, Jeff, it certainly is one rarified Spydie.

Re:"I have a new "favorite" each time I get a new knife!"

That's right on the mark, where the knife is a <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>, of course.

I want to get one of those G-10 Police models. I bet that is a sweet <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>.

From the <img src="http://www.spyderco.com/forum/uploaded_ ... gspidy.gif"> s I have, that would be the Delica, followed by the Meerkat. From those I'd like to have there is the Calypso jr. Lightweight. I also like the Millie, the Civie, and I am strangely fascinated by the Gunting.

My favorite would have to be the Endura FRN. It's big, sharp, and tough enough to take about anything I, or anyone else, can dish out. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Keepin' it real...real sharp, that is.

That's like asking a parent which child is the favorite! If I could keep only one, it would be the Gunting, because the ablity to fight is always important to me, even though I hope it never happens again. ( No, the incident predates the Gunting, and I didn't use a knife. ) I always keep some kind of Rescue around; right now it's a new 93mm in the pocket and a now-discontinued standard Rescue in an equipment bag, to replace the Mariner I lost on kayaking trip.

good question!!!! i've owned syyderco kinves since they first came out. i've had a few since than, and like someone eles said my favorites change---right now it's an endura with combo blade. all s/s. the hole--one handed opening got me hooked.

Well, most of the time it's the last one that I got. It was my Aluminum Cricket,
Currently it's G-10 Navigator, but a Starmate and a Mouse are in the mail, and a Chinook is on order.
But, I have a suspucion that I might be cured of all of this if I ever get my Sebenza... <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Like most of you, it is my very next spyide is my favorite.
At this moment, my bob lum chinese folder. When my millie gets here it will be that. WHen my g-10 police in hollow grind arrives, it maybe that.

My favorite <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> is my most carried EDC, the Military PE. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Although I do have some other favs in line right behind the Millie:

Lum Chinese PE
Calypso PE
Calypso Jr. PE LtWt.

Survive, Adapt, and Overcome...

I'm too afraid to post a response for fear of a spyder uprising for me not picking the others as a favorite. I don't want those crickets mad at me, they got big sharp pointy teeth, (in monty python voice). I just have too many to pic from, when my current shipmet arrives I will be up to 15.

it has to be the Endura and Military! <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

The Enduras, Natives, and (belive it or not) the Salsas!!!!<img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Man this is hard! But I guess it'd have to be the large Wegner. It's just so damned well built, and designed,and smooth, and comfortable, and sharp...need I go on?

Honorable mention go to the Lum Chinese, s/s Police, Military, Delica LW, and Bob Terzuola Starmate.
