Wow! The new Reveal has some jaw droppers.

The new Meerkat, Metropolitan, the Moran, Dyad, Balance, 15v Lil Native backlock, M2 XL Salt, and more! I have no idea what I am most excited about. I need more money, that is for sure.

Same here. For me it's the Spy 27 Stretch 2 XL, Metropolitan, Dyad and Balance that caught my eye. Probably only the Metropolitan and Dyad will actually make me buy them but that Balance is so funky, I might have to shell out for that one despite the collector-grade pricepoint.

In a perfect world i would say Salt Manix XL , Starmate and the New Chaparral.
In this one i am happy to get the XL as regretably i do not have an extra 860€ to spare for the other 2.
Also people seem to forget the fancy nickel silver / mother of pearl bug for some reason.

The Starmate, Meerkat and Magnamax Mule. I will need to make decisions as the Sage 6 in S90v is coming to Europe soon and I can't buy them all. So much great knives coming at once

SPY27 is definitely gonna be my first ever Police! Been real close to buying a VG-10 Police after really liking my Stretch 2 XL more than I thought I would. Didn't think big knives were for me, but here I am.

Dyad Jr. is neat, and I suspect SE SPY27 will get very sharp. Another buy.

The Chaparral as well. Gorgeous.

Actually, this might be the first reveal where I’m more hyped for the regular models than the sprint runs. That SPY27 Yojimbo 2 is straight fire—feels like a nod to the OG blue Yojimbo! And the Manix 2XL Salt? Total curveball, love it. Bodacious is inching closer too, but I’m holding out for that future Crucarta version .

Bought the SPY27 Bodacious already. I also liked the MagnaMax Mule and great to see some of the old designs come back. 15v is a plus too as with the Manix XL.

The 15V Natives and the black bladed police caught my eye. If I can pull it off when released I want a 15V Native. We'll see.

Everything 15V gets added to my short list, even if I might have to pick depending on when it drops in Europe. The Dyad Jr. is a must buy for me, and the Balance would've been if it was 20 bucks more than the Dyad.

The MagnaMax Mule is something I need to buy too, but importing Mules has been so much expensive lately that I've missed the 2 last ones... I might need to find a friend that regroups my American stuff and send only once every 6 months

Police 4, Spy27. Hadn't given it much thought until I saw it in the reveal, but that could be just the right version to introduce me to the P4. I don't have prior experience with Spy27, which makes it interesting all on its own. But from what I understand it should also be stainless enough for my intended outdoor applications. And while I'm not exactly unhappy with VG-10, my sock drawer is quite saturated with that steel, so the opportunity to choose a Seki variation with powder steel is quite welcome.

Metropolitan. I so look forward to the first reviews/unboxings/first impressions on this one. If I get the impression they got the blade length right (not "unnecessarily" shortened like the Urban), my current slipit option is likely to be relieved of duty.

As one who entered the hobby after many of the great legends had faded into obscurity, I'm generally very happy to see re-runs becoming something of a regular occurrence. Not all the classics are for me though, and this time around I think only the Dyad Jr. has enough of a pull on me to possibly lure me in.

Metropolitan, Dyad, Meerkat and Starmate. I might consider the Yojimbo but my credit card started to protest allready.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the Meerkat, but after more consideration I'm not sure I can trust my initial gut feeling on this one.
A good few years back I came across the Hap40 sprint at a really good price, but I was quite new to Spyderco at the time and before I had time to do my research and realize it was indeed an interesting model and a VERY good price, it was already gone. I used to kick myself for not moving faster on that one, but quite some time has passed since that - and I have to make sure I'm not buying this knife to the old me (or the younger me, rather). It has happened before that I've bought items that I used to drool over in my younger years, when money was always in short supply - only to realize my needs and preferences had changed.

Definitely the Manix XL Salt , Bodacious SPY 27 , and Dyad Jr. The Police and Stretch XL will probably be added to the herd . This Reveal definitely has my head spinning. MG2

One of the least exciting reveals in a long time for me. I'm happy the Balance returned for a sprint and I'll add the 15v Lil Natives to the collection but aside from that, there wasn't much to get excited about.

Meerkat, Metropolitan, and Dyad for me. I'll probably only end up with the Met.

Meerkat. I love trying out different locks and never got to try this model so I'm excited I'll get a chance to own one. Magnamax mule will be a hot one I bet.

I pre-ordered Manix 2 XL in magnacut and I’m looking forward to lil native 15v and native in 15v!

The Dyad and the SE Shaman LW stuck out to me.

Just fyi, Bento Box Shop still has new HAP40 Meerkats in stock. The price is steep though

manix xl salt by a long shot.
