Alright...This is what I've collected so far...






From top going clockwise...
1.  Military
2.  Stretch
3. UKPK
4. Endura Clipit
5. Delica Clipit


I've got the bug. (not the literal Spyderco Bug knife though...)

I could wish it a touch bigger and slightly easier to OHO but for the money it's a great deal.  Full flat grind, Spyderco standard of F&F, no silly pocket clip (they're just not for me) and even better a slippit for UK legal EDC.

With a cutting edge of 2" it still falls well within my idea of a useful size for EDC, far more so than the Bug or even the Honeybee.

It's not the length of the blade that's of-putting, more the small handle size :-\

Yeah, I can get that.  It's effectively a three finger knife and is comfortable enough for a few minutes or so's work but I wouldn't want to have to to use it all day long.

See I can easily be using a knife for 30, 40 minutes at a time if I'm doing a lot of pruning (prefer to use a knife for a nice clean cut, as opposed to pruners, as they can mangle the plants :-\) so I need a nice, full handle or my hand starts to cramp up after a while :)

Really? I find pruners gives a cleaner/safer cut, if the blade is sharp of course. (unless it's one of those cheap ones where frame flex too much)

Still don't like the 3Cr13 steel, but for light tasks the Grasshopper should still suffice.

There fine for the first 7/8th's of the cut, then they chew up the last 1/8th ::)

Strange, are you sure the blade is sharp and doesn't have gap between the arm thing?

It's mine so it is sharp :)

No gap either as I have it tightened as much as possible :)

They are going to do a new D'Allara also, my favorite Spyderco.



This is the old version

Yeah very nice!  I didn't realize they were going to have another go at the D'allara.  Hopefully it will be
the same and just another run of the same?

Rumor is Sal is redesigning the D'Allara ...

I think the orange Military is a regular catalog item now. Don't worry though, just send it to me so your collection can stay consistent.  :P
