My Spyderco Collection RANKED!!!

[@captaincalmag4953]

The grasshopper is seriously underrated. 12c27 slipjoint and its cheap.

[@acrocanthosaurus4]

I disagree Ive almost killed myself with that knife on multiple occasions.

[@keithmoore1202]

For me, it is the Native 5.

[@davidh0159]

I enjoy videos like this. I don't have a favorite Spydie because I don't own any Spydies. But it's always nice to see what people like about them.

[@esoteric5277]

If you're curious about Spydies maybe you should try out a Ganzo F759M. It's a $12 clone of the Byrd Meadowlark, which is in itself almost a clone of (and imho designwise an improvement on) the Delica. If you like that one, then you'll love the real thing (although I have to say that between the Ganzo and my Native 5LW both Meadowlark and Delica seem obsolete to me, but then Spyderco has enough to choose from that absolutely everyone could find at least one Spyderco to their liking).

[@johnmwalker5774]

My favorite is my stepped titanium chaparral that I carried in my wedding

[@beaublumhardt4298]

Spyderco knives are exceptional

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

I have more Spydercos than any other brand. Almost universally Spydercos have fantastic ergonomics. Chaparral was my Event Horizon - the knife that pulled me inexorably toward the black hole of knife collection. Have 4 Manix2s, Cru-Wear, S110V, Maxamet, and M390. Love 'em. 4 Delicas as well, Cru-Wear, M390, SG2, and VG10. Carry them more than the Manix2s. My most carried are a trio of 5th pocket knives, Cat, Crow, and Lil Native. No matter what else I carry, I am likely to have one of those 3 with me as well.

[@SliceyDicey]

I have sixteen Spydercos, about 8-10 KAI (ZT and Kershaw), four Benchmade, Steel Will and We/Civivi and everything is just one or two.

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

@@SliceyDicey - I had to consult my spread sheet, 22 Spydercos and 4 Byrds. If it is Spyderco or the Field, Field wins. And if Iist my top 10, Spydercos has only 2 slots. And yet, when I look at Blade HQ, Knife Center, DLT Trading, St. Nick's, for some reason I always go to Spyderco first. I am far too pragmatic for this to be mere brand loyalty. Spydercos just tend to be excellent. If you like, I can send you my spreadsheet and if there is something you would like to check out, I can sent if your way.

[@caldrenfitzpatrick3308]

Thanks for the tour, that was enjoyable.

[@danokitemanotoo1791]

Bought a Shaman in January & haven't carried it. I'm taking it back on Friday when I go to ChyWy. Right now my favorite Spyderco is the SpydieChef.

[@BigRedEDC]

Raven 2 is a pretty darn good knife!! !Spyderco does smaller knives very well! Thanks for sharing the collection with us!!

[@erdnaseum7702]

Love me my Spyderco, manix, sage 5, kapara, dragonfly 2, and chef are my top five fave.

[@dantem5228]

Domino and dice are ergonomic dreams for me. Kapara and chef are way up there for me too in favourites. Para 3 with Aramis scales just makes it a whole new knife. But the Paysan with a deep carry long mxg clip is #1.

[@SliceyDicey]

I had a Domino and sold when the values got crazy for a minute. Regret it. That was back when I was a “collector” More of a user now and don’t look at values.

[@speedwolf5212]

Cool thing about Spydercos is that there’s so many different models with slight ergonomic variations, there really is something for everyone. The steel options is icing on the cake. My favorite is probably the Delica(Cruwear & Hap40 Wharncliffe). And I completely agree with you on the peel-ply CF, that stuff is awesome. Great grip & a few grams lighter than standard G-10. My next Spyderco to buy is probably a fully serrated Native 5 Salt. LC200N is pretty wicked-Full serrated LC200N should cut like a demon.

[@featherchuker1326]

Really enjoying the Tropen, Spydiechef, and the Slysz bowie.

[@Greg-bz2bf]

Get with it! Time to do another fantastic RANKED video! Cheers from down under (and drooling for a Sub Hilt).

[@justinwood3054]

I have over 20 Spyderco’s and love them all. My current favorite is probably my Caribbean. Manix 2 light weight has always been a favorite.

[@docslicegood6201]

My favourite Spydies so far: 1. SpydieChef, 2. PM2, 3. Manix 2 lightweight S110V. Spyderco is my overall favourite knife brand. Thanks for the video!

[@nightsquats]

Native 5 Salt is my current edc. If it wears in some so it isn't so stiff I'll be in heaven. (Been leaving it open 90 degrees overnight to soften it up, starting to help.)

[@SliceyDicey]

I need another Native 5 and another lil native.

[@antoinedoinell]

Really want the Paysan or Spydiechef. Love the sheepsfoot blades from Spyderco. Only wish their grinds were thinner.

[@coryzepp238]

I love my spydercos. Really want to get my hands on a chapparal(probably raffir noble) an ikuchi, and a rhino. Right now my top 3 that I own are my mantra 3, sage with the liner lock(want compression lock version but dont need 2) and s110 para3.

[@normal1972]

Spydiechef is my favorite as well. Unfortunately mine will not come apart. One pivot screw won't budge. It is a knock on mine, but I love the knife design and steel.

[@justinhuffman1957]

Ever tried out the Sliverax!? Got mine this week and I am in love.

[@SliceyDicey]

Didn’t care for that one much. Don’t remember why.

[@J.sh_CDN]

Loving mine! Not the best flipper, and the blade angle doesnt let you cut on a flat surface easily, but I love it

[@justinhuffman1957]

Slicey Dicey Perhaps your tastes have changed since then! Like you were saying in regards to the Native Chief, it also carry’s way to well in pocket for being as large as it is.

[@kentmccoy6020]

I was excited about the Native Chief, but by the time it came out and I got it in-hand, I felt no need to buy one... probably because by then I had a TRM Atom. That could be an interesting battle-to-the-death, even if the Chief comes in as an underdog.

[@carknelson5895]

I like my Spyderco Spydi chief Ladybug I like the Endura My wife always steels my PM2 in M4 Manix 2 LW was also my first Spyderco that got me into collecting. I do like the g10 manix better though. I have a S90v military and wow it will kill a ton of cardboard and not dull so it my garage knife.

[@cheesychester9647]

Nice vid Brian

[@patrickvanovermeeren4513]

Nice video on the Syderco''s.Iiked it! Thanks for sharing !

[@bplahn39]

I have both the big & little spyderpack. Mine are hung up in the basement mancave. Wife calls it unaffectionatly "the torture chamber" 🙄

[@nicklim9299]

I recently started collecting Spyderco knives..and my current collection has the Byrd Meadowlark and the Tern and a spyderco Insistent and Ladybug 3..I start on the lower budget knives.

[@DavidM-lj5yv]

I've only been seriously collecting EDC type knives for 6 months or so. But many years ago before I started seriously collecting I bought a Spyderco Endura 4 SS. I still have that knife and it's a bit heavy but I EDC it a lot. Latest purchase was a Yojimbo 2-- I actually love it but not really EDC type. Cannot believe out of the 12 or so Spydercos I own, I don't have a PM2 or Manix 2-- I need both-- and possibly the S110V versions. Also seriously thinking of getting a Spydiechef. Thanks for the presentation.

[@jessruss40]

Great vid Bryan. Glad you are enjoying the Spydiechef! My favorite Spyderco so far has probably been the Lil Native, but I currently don't own a single one!

[@timnichol6566]

My Kapara is also one of my favourites, I just purchased a smock and I really like the button lock on it. So much so that I would like to mod a pm2 to make it a button lock. Great video!!

[@timbo4374]

It's funny, but I love my Cruwear Manix 2, and I doubt I'll ever sell it, but I find myself carrying my 52100 grey/black one far more often. I love the grey with black and the 52100 really is a good steel. Not Cruwear great, but it does just fine. I think I just like the way it looks better. Either way though, the Manix is my favorite Spyderco out of the 10 I still own, although the Shaman is a very close 2nd.

[@thomasroberts4261]

My favorite spyderco and edc is my spyderench. My second favorite would be my vrango, followed by my rookie,my spur and my dragonfly.

[@johnmackey3164]

Your the reason I never sold my Raven and now I hear u sold yours. Dang! It does sharpen and mirror polish with just a ultra fine rod

[@stevemilk4526]

Nice video. I have a ton of Spydercos never thought about ranking them. It’d be cool if you did it with other brands that you have a considerable amount of. Being I own or have owned almost every knife you mentioned it makes me think I am missing out by not having tried a spydie chef and here I thought I was done collecting.

[@CalebMcFadden]

I’m getting the spydiechef soon but so far it’s my wave endura at the top

[@Strow1stofHisName]

I really wish my sage 5 was that “drop shutty” I’d love it so much more.

[@JOMO_EDC]

Spydiechef is my favorite as well. It’s just a great edc knife.

[@bobkeller8383]

My favorite spyderco is the brend/pirela mamba!

[@geraldrice8012]

I’d really like to see what you think about the Advocate.

[@erhon5]

I agree the chef is my favorite.

[@wrliggin2]

I freaking love the sage 5 lw! I kinda despise Spyderco peel-ply CF but I love the sage ergos. It's definitely in my top 5 spydercos

[@Discodave42]

Watching this with much loved and much used Kapara in my pocket. I really need(or maybe I don't) to check out a Spydiechef.

[@randyf.9188]

The Para 3 is a regular in my work rotation, but my Sage 5 is my favorite overall.

[@corbey50]

I also have the CQI2 version of the Spydiechef that I got last year. Unfortunately, it has lock-stick and late lockup, so it's not really my favorite. Also, Spyderco raised the price by about 10% this year.

[@CNYKnifeNerd]

Holy shit. Ive watched your videos forever and never knew you were located in Rochester. Greetings from Syracuse... Totally agree about the manix. My g10 maxamet manix is one of my favorite knives.

[@111111111Tiger]

Brian unresolved issues ARE, Soooo many knives and so little pocket time... Thanks for the vid.

[@itsaknifestyle8482]

My favorite is my para 3 lw. I only have two others, which are the Paramilitary 2 and the Delica

[@sunnyrachelsson3169]

I got the para 3 LW delica and a manix 2 and a meerkat in hap 40

[@mickkeim4142]

I have both versions of the Kapara. I find a very small difference between the old and the new...at least as far as action goes. My favs and your favs match. At least the last two...lol. By the way...when I take a knife apart...just for the sake of...taking a knife apart...I call that true and complete boredom...LOL.

[@deanalbertson7203]

Spyderco Delica with ZDP-189 steel.

[@Mridgwell]

Cool video but when I saw title I thought we'd get to rank on your collection

[@TripleEEDC]

I think I waited too long to get a spydiechef. I don’t want to pay $240 for it, which is the new price. I was close to pulling the trigger at $218 but there are just too many good knives at $250.

[@Luke-mz5zt]

My top 10 in my collection would be: 10. Rex-45 Military 9. GB2 8. Caly Jnr 7. Rex-45 Para3 6. C42 Howard Veile 5. Caly 3 in ZDP 4. Endura in ZDP ( best value knife Spyderco make imo) 3. Persian- Any version 2. Kapara 1. Phoenix I sold my Slysz Bowies( crazy money offered) and I don't care for the Spydiechef in the slightest.

[@BDSwaim]

I'm at 16 too. Good number.

[@Gman1024]

Mmm, spydiechef..... Thanks for the upload.

[@bobb.9917]

Hmmm...I have a Drunken where your Spydie Chef is...then the Kapara, Sage 5 and the my modified PM2 with Silver Twill CF scales...I just have 6 Spydercos and that's plenty....😬

[@salmanalk]

Hi, great vid. Any issues using your knife on plates in the diner or at home?

[@SliceyDicey]

Definitely wears the tips a bit.

[@lostworldvideogames]

Any preference between Cruwear and Maxamet?

[@SliceyDicey]

Cruwear. Only because I can actually sharpen it with my mediocre skills. Maxamet is HARD.

[@Mridgwell]

Check out Outpost 76 cut test of maxamet and his sharpening video. He shows the incredible edge retention of maxamet, it would take the average user forever to dull maxamet, and he shows sharpening maxamet isn't as difficult as everyone claims .

[@danscollectables5997]

Great video! Thanks 😀

[@charliemartin4392]

You see them new bailouts with aluminum scales and m4 blade

[@jacksonperocfrenchzfourtou4283]

interesting choices

[@charliemartin4392]

I'll trade you my regular pm2 for that cruwear one...... that's a fair trade.

[@robohawk_us]

I noticed the SMKW code doesn’t work anymore. Is there a new one?

[@Booper2021]

Loved how you showed the action and fidgeted with all of the knifes throughout. In your reviews, the knifes usually just sit there while you talk. Would love to see that more in your reviews.

[@Fall-off-currencies]

The spydiechef is the greatest knife of all time.

[@mannyz5307]

I saw that coming. ( #1)

[@rzak1920]

Love my Smock!

[@SteveKluver]

Thanks Bryan. Another great idea for a video! But shame on you! I have not yet bought the spydiechef, and your darn videos are now tugging at my wallet again! : - ) The CQI Kapara, has such perfect action. It's OMG, what just happened perfect. I fully expect now, that Spyderco will move all of their like pivots, over to this type. Plus, they're doing it on two continents now already.

[@Orochi_001]

How do you like the Chief at $168?

[@SliceyDicey]

Still like it, but not as much.

[@josephkraemer5326]

How do you not have the Delica?!!!

[@SliceyDicey]

$84 for VG-10 and plastic? No thanks.

[@LarsRibe]

If they put BD1 on their entire Byrd line, they wouldn't sell any Spydercos

[@fountainbird]

I can’t believe the lil native has been forgotten so easily. Kills the Insistent in every way.

[@SliceyDicey]

Gone, but not forgotten. I miss mine a lot. And of course it's better. It costs twice as much.

[@billbraski]

Shaman. Pm3. ATR. Kapara. Spydiechef

[@Rashoop]

Having 16 is a problem? Uh oh....

[@angelheart7643]

Where is the Spyderfly ???

[@hgncbdfx]

I strongly disagree with your statement "it's almost impossible to get a little knife drop shutty" if Bill Koenig can do it, Spyderco should put in the effort to figure it out too, its not magic its geometry.

[@johnd9357]

Even my one of my Delica drops shut with no blade play. I really don’t prefer it honestly. Couldn’t care less about drop shutting.

[@SliceyDicey]

Are any Koenigs less than 2.5 inch blades? And I said ALMOST impossible.

[@hgncbdfx]

@@SliceyDicey almost impossible if ur lazy, and the goblin is a 3" that has almost no resistance as you know from Daddyoedc's loaner. We gotta push for the features we want in our tolls and fidget toys.

[@stevemilk4526]

Spyderco did it with the lil native. It’s not that they can’t but he was talking about a budget knife. Honestly who cares if those don’t drop shut. Gosh forbid it takes an extra half second to close it. If you want drop shut that bad loosen the pivot add kpl it’s not that big of a deal. Please there are loads of other things to strongly disagree with.

[@esoteric5277]

Probably my most drop-shutty knife is an almost 40 y/o Buck 525+🤔 Drop-shuttiness doesn't really mean much to me (other than maybe not wanting to lend that blade to someone else - if it's anything larger than a Buck 525+ - for fear of seeing them cut themselves).
