Hello fellow spyderco lovers! What is your favorite spydie and why?
Don't have many but my favorite is the Endura. It's great for every day use and it's probably my most used knife including other brands.
Whats your favorite Spyderco Knife?
That's a question that is tough for me to answer. It's like asking a parent: "Who's your favorite child?" Each knife is different and I love each one for what it is. Nonetheless, although my current "favorite" carry is the updated Viele, I can't say it's the most favorite of all Spydercos that I own. Does that make sense?

My favorite Spydie, of all that I've owned
and passed on to friends is my "Cricket"
( the "Q" running a close second, with its
multi-position clip ), the "Cricket" is "street legal" ( with it's short blade length), light weight, and lightening quick
liner-locking action. Of all the knives I do
own, this is the one I always carry

The Calypso Jr. is definitely my favorite, in all its variations (well, in its zytel and micarta variations). To me they combine Spyderco's signature features (hole and clip), with an astoundingly good blade design and grind for its intended purpose, steel that meets its needs perfectly in either 8A or VG-10, and a handle that just works perfectly for what the knife is designed for.
If I lost my Calypso Jr., there's just no obvious replacement that combines its performance, looks, features, and price. That's why it edged out the endura for me, which I love nearly as much, but has acceptable competitors even among Spyderco's own line.

What Joe said <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>. The Calypso Jr has replaced the Native as my favourite knife for daily carry. I used to prefer the ergonomics of the Native but the flat grind of the Calypso's blade has won me over, and it's handle is both ergonomic and elegant. I was going to sell my micarta Calypso but fortunately didn't get around to it as I now use my Calypso Ltwt for day to day carry and have a dressier version fo the same knife for more "formal" occasions. Of course all this may change when I get my Chinese Folder <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>.

It all depends on my plans for the day...
Weekdays, it's my ladybug, since it's my only spydie I can carry at school...
Weekends, My Delica... anything and everything... I still have my ladybug, but add my delica for the weekends...
We all start with 10 fingers. Those with Spydies have 9 to spare, Still need a thumb. Good thing I still have 8 to spare...
