Some stunning knives gents, im glad theres a few its confirmed my opinion on just how good they are.
Hopefully theres a few more yet
 
Now the first Manix was an epic knife. Why they discontinued it is beyond me.

i don't know why they did it. probably too expensive to continue making...
i'm trying to sell it though because it's too big for my needs.
the delica is an awesome folder also.
i've had a sage, leafstorm and a persistence but now only down to those two.
spyderco makes awesome quality knives!
 
Here's mine, having been introduced (and given my first) by a good friend who, I believe has/had one of the largest collections in the world, entering his man-cave was like entering a very well stocked knife shop!

I love spydies, but I can concede they are marmite knives but mostly they just feel right in the hand to me, even my Mrs has quite a few including a limited edition moran that she had us nearly miss a flight home from vancouver to get it!

I use the sharpmaker for any serious amount and recently took to regular stropping after some advice. I also have a DMT and a DC4 which I need to get confident with
 
i strop mine a fair bit and just give it a quick once over with a ceramic hand sharpener, try not to let it get to the point were it has to go on the sharpening stones,i dont like seeing all that metal coming off!

the pictures have only confirmed my thoughts.......buck ugly, to much metal, over priced

still, horses for courses chaps

i like marmite but hate spyderco on toast :)
 
I'm a big Spyderco fan. I wandered into good deals on the Bushcraft knife and an Endura. Other than those I generally can't afford a true Spyderco, but do also have a Byrd Cara Cara which is the poor man's Endura.
 
Today I handled my mates BcUK in G10 scaled version. I do believe I would have one if I could justify it/had the ££!

I know synthetic scaled knifeys aren't for everyone but feels good and looks sweet! I love it, thinking of letting a custom go and having one if
 
I I'll try to dig out a couple of pics for you.

At first I couldn't the pics ...

Then I couldn't find the Endura ...

Then I forgot I'd posted ...

Then I found the Endura ...

But still forgot the thread ...



And today everything came together and I took a couple of pics :cool: .


Both blades are G-2.





 
Here are a few of mine. I've got a few more in storage in the UK, but these are the ones I have with me.

I have an FRN UKPK in burgundy. I love the leaf blade shape in particular. It is all the pocket knife I need. If I were to lose it I think I'd buy another Spyderco to replace it.
