Calypso Jr. (plain edged with stainless steel handle). Carried to work daily in my lunch bag.

Native 2 plainedge. I use it every day at work.

[Jeff/1911]

Hi Joyce.

Mine is the plain edged Military. It is an extremely versatile tool and easy to carry.

The Military is a wonderful design. It is an incredible cutter, lightweight, strong, smooth to operate, comfortable to use and flat enough that it simply disappears inside the waistband of a pair of jeans or walking shorts. Truly, a work of art.

Joyce,

Where is the contest on the "other" Spyderco forum located? You mean the Bladeforums manufacturers one, right?

Jeff/1911.

The Plain edge Military
is the anchored constant.

Hi Joyce-
My favorite daily carry is the C66- Frank Centofante VESUVIUS 50/50 with inlay. It fits my hand and cutting needs perfectly.

[Joyce Laituri]

Hola,

Tried to post this same contest in the Spyderco Forum at Bladeforums...it shut me out and will not let me post. Once I get the problem worked out I'll post there too. Thanks for your patience~!

Joyce

[CalypsoKid]

I carry a Calyso Jr.

~CK

[scolby]

Currently, a Walker Almite. Not as good of a cutting tool as the Calypso Jr., and not as versatile as the Worker, but liner lock knives keep finding their way into my pocket.

[ozelot]

I carry a plainedge endura as my work knife.
It is easy to open onehanded, sharp, light and not too expensive to use hard.

Nico

[yog]

Delica II SS plain edge.
Very discreet and as much a pocket razor as it is a work of art.

[Clay Kesting]

Yippee, another contest, good onya Joyce <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>.

A Calypso Jr is most often my EDC.

Clay

Don't worry that the world might end tomorrow, in Australia it's tomorrow already.

[Michael G73]

A contest? A prize just for posting? How could I pass that up! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

It's a toss-up between two, but as of late the Dragonfly FRN has been my most used knife. It seems to find its way into my pocket almost everyday (except today, of course).

<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

[chinook]

Been doing a lot of yard and garden work lately. The G10 Harpy has been in my pocket and in my hand most often.

Hmmmmm
I know I've posted more than 12 times here.

My vote for best production folder of all time. A knife this versatile is hard to be beat. I have never seen a knife that does so many things so well.

Tufram Cricket, serrated.

great tool. sheeple freindly.

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...

[William Cowan]

The black LadyBug is the only knife I always carry. Hangs off my keys. Small, fast and very sheeple friendly.

[col.hogan]

terzoula(starmate) ,plain and simple.

[Brian Lavin]

Chinook is my new favorite. In spite of the heavier weight, this one has become a part of my every day carry, I just love it.

[WTFOver]

Only one is hard but &quot;Rules Is Rules&quot; Police, SpyderEdge, Blak-TI coated.

[fnhp35]

Military plain. It is my first Spyderco knife. I really like the knife. It fits my hand very well and the action is very smooth. I hope to in the near future purchase more, but alas I am a poor college student and budget restraints... well you get the picture.

[Knife Knut]

The Original Endura.


Knife Knut on a shoestring budget.

[dsvirsky]

Calypso Jr. Lightweight

Dave

[copilotboy]

sounds funny maybe, but my favorite EDC is my Shabaria that i got a couple weeks ago. it's the right size, it's comfortable, it's impressive and good-looking, and it is shaving sharp! thanks for making such a great product!

brandon

[fisherman]

I do not yet own one but i can tell it will be my favorite when I do. Plain edge Tim Wegner, right size for me, geat grip, all purpose blade, and beefy!

Thanks fisherman

[cgjones]

A Rescue FRN with the metal clip is my daily carry knife. I find that it's a good utility style knife that will cover many uses.

[Bruceter]

7-05-01

The plain edge Vesuvius has been in my pocket 95% of the time for the last three monthts or so.

Bruceter

[ronin203]

I carry the chinook everyday. I have since the day i bought it. I feel it is the best knife i own.

[FastEddie]

Endura Lightwt. Plain edge.

[fannin]

Mine is the Endura lightweight, serrated, all black. Sweet piece.

This Spyder Bytes!!!

[jrollins]

Only one?! Soo many good knives... To choose only one might hurt their feelings...

The knife I've been carrying lately is my black-coated blade Bob Lum Tanto. Wonderful little knife, I love the tanto blade. Just last night it was used for some amateur fire fighting, it was the only thing available to dig with. Someone threw a cigarette butt into some dry bark dust. Just imagine surviving the fireworks just to get bit by a smoker! That knife has been stuck to my pocket ever since it arrived, and it bites too! It's got a taste for blood, as my fingers well know.

-JR

[ADS]

The knife I carry is my almite navigator with slotted grip and plain edge. Winning this prize sure would change that though!

[mundele]

We can list only one? Well, I'd have to say that my everyday carry has been my Calypso Jr. Lightweight for quite sometime. I'd probably carry my Military more, but it would scare my co-workers...

--Matt

[Windwalker]

Hi Joyce,
No question, still carry a worker plain edge I bought when they first came out.... wouldn't be without it.
Thank you again for the contest! You folks are sure neat! :-)
Windwalker (Dana)

[bengaiser]

I love my plain edge old style Viele and carry it (almost) every day. It is, in my opinion, the most elegant Spyderco made to date. Every line, curve, groove, bump, and hole is in the right place. When you look at it from any angle, it is a work of art.

As an engineer it seems to fit right in with my surroundings and work and at home. It is not an intimidating tool, is easy to open and close with one hand, is super sharp, smooth to the touch, and beautiful to look at.

I know it will always be right where I need it and never fail the task at hand. Thank you to every one at Spyderco, past and present, and keep up the great work!

Ben

[Mancer]

I switch between blades for util use at work often (since I buy so many!!!,lol) but the 1 that has been on me from the start and never seen a days rest out of my pocket would be my Grey Spyderco Matriarch.

[Marlon]

Hi, Joyce!

My collection counts more than 8 Spy, so it's hard to say which is my favourite...

Maybe the M.Walker's one.
I often carry it 'cause I found it small, light, sharp and with a smooth opening.

My everyday carry knife is a stainless Copilot with spyderedge.Fits perfectly in the 5th pocket of my jeans and is a rugged workhorse.Can't ask for more in a compact, quality folder.

[Tom Percy]

Regardless of what is showing clipped to my pocked, my Ladybug is always on my spare keys 24/7.

[Tom Puderbaugh]

My daily carry choice is the plain-old FRN Endura w/fully serrated blade.

Why? Cause it's light, flat, strong, sharp as the dickens and didn't cost an arm and a leg to purchase.

[Aries59]

Fully serrated Endura is with me everyday.

[grant]

Thanks for the contest Joyce
If I had to choose just one mine would have to be my plain edge Military. A great all around user.

[stellite]

Police Aluminum Serrated! Thanks!

[clipiteer]

Delica plainedge(FRN).

[Ed Gordon]

Calypso Jr. Micarta

[JamesA]

My first thought was the Calypso Jr Lightweight, because of the flat grind, the handle texture, the VG-10 steel, the ambidextrous clip, the &gt;3 inch blade, and the tip-down carry. Makes it a wonderful medium-heavy duty utility piece.

But now that I've thought about it a little more -- the D'Holder Toad. I can't quantify it like I could with the Calypso -- it's just a beautifully functional little knife.

[Jeffb58]

My favorite is my SS Harpy. Never leave home without it.

[The Stare]

The Native FRN gets the most time occupying one of my pockets. It is extremely versatile in terms of gripping it, with an excellent &quot;stabbing&quot; point, a very ergonomic handle, and great blade steel. Add it's light weight, medium size, and what could be better?

Stare

[Rawd]

Joyce,

The mini-dyad. There are a handful that I rotate, but with the dyad I get two blades instead of one.

Rod

[Alan2112]

I usually have our Dragonfly somewhere on me. I rotate our Endura out with a competitor, for my work knife every other week. RKBA!

[Fozzy]

This is an easy one- 1988 vintage Police model. It's my every day duty carry.

"No good deed goes unpunished."

[Tightwad]

For what it's worth I carry &quot;a&quot; calypso (large or small) daily. I've many other knives to choose from
but a calypso of one size or the other always winds up in my pocket. I just gave my wife a calypso
jr. lwt. for her yard work, pruning etc. and she really likes it and won't give it back. She's always
given the knife I let her use back before. Hmmmm... the calypso's ARE addictive. I only can say
that I really do miss my calypso when I can't carry it. Gosh...I wonder if that's what withdrawl is
like.

[wayne]

The plain-edge Gunting!!

[FREDERIC K]

For the last 10 months it was Matriarch.

Nowaday, it is a Gunting.

(Truly speaking, I never leave home without both...)

[Sword and Shield]

Endura, ATS-55, in 50-50 edge configuration. Just a great knife that I had to have the second I picked it up. Cost me a significant part of my paycheck, but it was certainly worth it.

How will the winner be posted? May I suggest posting the winner's name here with instructions on how to contact?

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

[JustChuck]

I carry the Tim Wenger Jr. PE with the clip removed. It is big enough to really do the work yet small enough not to sag the pants pocket of my suit. I have softened all of the edges including polishing the edges of the hole... I then roughened them just a bit for traction.

[cmbrech]

I just ordered the Mouse after reading so many great comments on the forum. This is the spydie I plan to carry with me daily. Will replace my Co-Pilot I've carried for years (which I thoroughly have enjoyed carrying, I might add)

[Scorpius711]

G-10 Harpy during the week, I love the solid feeling of the G-10 and it's thicker handle feels more secure in my hand.

For opening the pre-cut slots on the sides of plastic pails. I work for a ink &amp; coating
manf., this is the best blade shape, without question. With my other knives it is akward to orient the tip to the slot. With the Harpy you insert the tip in slot and pull down, much faster.
