Sage 1 Maxamet is just about perfect for me.
Gayle Badley 2
Sage-1 Maxamet
Endela K390
Honorable mention, and because I really like camping, guiding, hunting and making fires / processing wood. The most under appreciated Spyderco, the Province, absolutely love 4V as a fixed blade steel.
My next endeavor will be a spyderco in LC200N, I really like the Spydiechef and blades with a continuous sweep
1-Mannix 2 Love it. 2-Para 2 A classic. 3-Shaman a brute. Great list!
Love your 5 gayle Bradley ,manix, and I’m still kind f on the fence for 3
Have a GB1 and a GB2 on my desk right now and can’t decide which one I like better. Just incredible knives. That SpyOpera keeps calling me. - looks like a perfect EDC for urban environment. I am also liking the style of the Shaman a lot, but would probably do some grind adjustments if I were to get one. And yes - please do that video on top 10 discontinued Spydercos. That would be awesome 👍
Great list bro. Love my GB2, Maxamet Para 3, and PM2 in S110v. Have wanted a Miliie and Spydie Chef for a bit.
Great stuff as always sir. I just bought my first spyderco, para 3 black g10 amd s30v. Couldnt be happier! Now I'm trying to figure out which one i want next.
I have 2 Spydercos that are overlooked: 1) Spyderco UK penknife is basically a lightweight Delica Slipjoint with front finger choil to keep the blade from closing on your finger and weighs only 1.9 ounces. 67.20. 2) Spyderco Cat has the same dimensions and weigh as the Lil Native but is a liner lock.
Both knives are in my favorite user steel CTS-BD1N. 61.00
Thanks for the video.
Manix 2, Para 3 and Endura. Really like the way that Sage looks. Will most likely get that and the Kapara. Love how Spyderco brings out the different steels.
Killer Spydercos!! I found a 2014 Spyderco product guide&2014 ColdSteel magazine&dvd today. Got my RECON1&WorkSharp Precision a couple days ago now your vid&the product guide I found today got my Spidey itch aggravated. Think the Tatanka if its available will be my second Spyderco. I had a ladybug.
Great list! Thank you. Gayle Bradley is a good choice. I don’t have one so Kapara is at the top of my list.
I'm just like you I love everything about Spyderco. There amazing and great looking.
Dope list, sir. Hope you’re feeling better. 🤙
Great video! My top 3 Spyderco knives are Gayle Bradley 2, SpydieChef, and Shaman. Para Military 2 and Yojimbo 2 round out the top 5.
1) Sage 2. Spyderco's best ergonomics are in the Sage series, and this discontinued tribute to the Sebenza in slab titanium offers beautiful minimalism. Not one extraneous detail that doesn't serve function. I won't ever NEED another EDC. That said if Chris Reeve can embrace MagnaCut, there's a good case for a large sprint reissue, for which I'd double dip.
2) Kapara. Thin 3.6" blade, comfy contoured CF handles, compression lock, designed for cutting on surfaces (no front quillion/finger guard to interfere).
3) Native 5. Better than the Para 3 for everything but fidgeting, and the happy median of all the "evergreen" models, not too small/delicate, not too heavy/overbuilt. It's probably a sentimental favorite for Sal and Eric, which is why so many of their newer models are rescaled versions (Lil' Native, Native Chief, Shaman). Little wonder the Native 5 is their pick for introducing new steels into ongoing Golden CO production.
Honorable mention: Stretch 2 in K390. If I had to have one knife for everything for the rest of my life, I think this would be the one. PM 2 sized knife, with a more comfortable handle, in the best balanced super tool steel.
Been on a waiting list for a Smock for a couple months. They came up for sale and were sold out in 10 minutes. Back on the waiting list. Nice list!! 👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
I LOVE my Sage 1. It is in my opinion the most beautiful and functional of all Spyderco knife designs.
I recently picked up a Spyderco Military in Carbonfiber Peel-Ply with 52100 steel. I always swore I'd never buy a Military but I've always wanted a 52100 Spyderco but never could get my hands on one. I added a LynchNW clip and I LOVE this knife even with it being top down only.
Hallo old friend. Great list. Gave me some ideas. Only Spydercos I own are the Para 3 and the Mantra but thinking of getting another one. That's why your list was great
Awesome video keeep it up 👍
Great list! Your top two are the next 2 Spyderco on my wish list. For the ones I have it would be Smock, Kapara, and Para 3 in S45, St. Nicks Manix 2 would be my honorable mention. I would love a Sage 5 in an upgraded steel instead of the Para 3.
My top 3 that I own are the Kapara cqi , the Sage 5 cqi and the Manix 2 lw. You had a good list though. Can't argue with any of those choices.
Favorite 3 🙈 Shaman micarta m4, pm2 cruwear and para 3 g10. Love all of my Spyderco knives though. Manix 2 s110v g10 for either of my top 3.
Great video!
My top 5:
- Para 3 in Cruwear or REX45
- Paramilitary 2 in S110V or S35VN
- Dragonfly 2 in H1, VG10 Cruwear
- Native 5 in Cruwear, S90V or S110V
- Shaman in CruCarta
Most used are the Ladybug, Dragonfly 2, Para 3, Mantra 2 and PM2.
Most underrated Spyderco is the Brouwer in my opinion: good ergonomics, useful blade shape, slim carry profile, non-threatening more classic design and super smooth operation.
Kapara, Sage 1 and Carbon fibre Chapparal.
Great vid dude...
The Sage 5 is my # 1. Glad you like it too.Thanks for posting.
Funny, that is a Sage 1 not a Sage 5 in the video, notice the lack of a compression lock, so I agree the 5 is better.
The Drunken is a special knife! Along with the Para 3 Maxmet, kapara, Sage 5 Lightweight, Caribbean Sheepfoot.
Great video! SpydieChef is #1 in my list to pick up, I guess I'll have to add the GB2. For me #1: Sage 1, #2: Native 5, #3: Techno 2. I had my Swayback chopped, I don't carry the Shaman often as it's a bit too big for me, and I just got a Lil' Native so not sure how I feel yet. But I think the most solid lineup is Lil' Native, Native 5, Sage 1 and/or 5 and the Shaman. Cost effective, G10 or light weight options, get to experience different locks.
K2, awesome blade steel, super wicked sharp.
Smock
Manix2xl
Police 3 g10
No.1 G.Bradley,no.2 Canis,no.3 Stovepipe. Bradley for backup too my .45acp.,Canis all around everything knife,and Stovepipe for stuff I need up close control on at work.All Spyderco the best.,👍
Hiya 🎉.., nice review. I really like the Shaman (I have big hands), but I also like the Native 5, and a few others that have good finger placement for choking up. Thanks for the review!
Love how the GB2 looks but that lockbar is a deal breaker. I only have 2 Spydercos so my top 2 are the Smock and Canis.
How does the grip of the military differ from the grip of the para 2? Thanks. I have the Manix II XL. Not real thrilled with the scales on it.
Outta what I have at the moment pm2 in m390
Sage 5 and delica S30v. Great video 💀☠️👍
Hey Stassa, I just saw my favorite of all and it’s the spyderco spyopera! Love it! Lion steel in Italy makes that knife. I also love the sage 5 lightweight, and the shaman, and the Gayle Bradley. I think he made a flipper version. Love wire clips and compression locks.also love, love, love, the swayback!!! As far as a older one I’d love to see spyderco Drunken cpm-s90v, carbon fiber & titanium msrp $629.95 and the positron cpm s30v carbon fiber.Be Well, Dominick
Yeah I use to own the Advocate which is the flipper Gayle Bradley 👌🏻
i like this backdrop
Cool!
What do you think of the brouwer i find it one of my favourites nice shape smooth action and just the right size
Would love to see the discontinued list! I would say my top 3 is Smock, Spydiechef, and Manix 2.
My favorite Spydercos:
Paysan
Slysz Bowie (original)
Drunken
Swayback
Kapara (with sharpening choil filed in)
Smock in M4 with Ti scales to remove all the stupid holes, and 2nd detent removed
Spydiechef
Techno 2
Shaman with flytanium brass scales
Number 3..... I like.
Can't wait to see the discontinued video!
#1 Shaman
#2 Manix 2
#3 Sage 5 (compression lock)
Honorable mention: Subvert. Too big for EDC in most cases. The Native 5 Salt, Brouwer and Canis, which I don't own yet to evaluate properly.
I just picked up the pm2 in k390. It took me two days to drop it on the floor and break the tip off it. I sent it in to BGM knives to get the tip fixed and a regrind plus acid stonewashed
That is going to be one awesome pm2 I’m jealous 👊🏻👊🏻
Stassa23 it has navy blue terotuf, purple flytanium hardware, and purple Lynch clip already.
My top 5 are the subvert, kapara, domino, manix 2 (regular not lite weight) and the GB2
I own a Manix 2 LW, and I like it a lot, but I’m torn as to which mini I should get, the Native 5 or the Sage 5! Which would you get Stassa if you had to choose?
Sage 5 for me 👍🏻
Love my Chappie in white and black g10 w the mother of Pearl etc. Super sharp, tough, small, and beautiful. Also, looking forward to the blue titanium chef with LC200N, which I ordered the other day. I have a feeling that may go up, but who knows if I’ll use it to the point that that’s moot. Either way, they make great knives.
Ordered a sun and moon Chaparral today after wanting one for a long time. I was afraid it would get discontinued and I would miss out.. which is happened to me numerous times due to procrastinating. 👍🏻
My gayle Bradley met the Dremel diamond and the got taken home by the dremel scotch brite pad, thumbs are happy. The Caribbean is a keeper beyond your top ten.
Yeah as soon as I can get in my new shop mine will definitely be getting some mod work done 👌🏻
Love your list. I have 3 of the knives and love them too. By the way where did you get the custom scales?
Well looks like I'm a bit different;
Kapara (With an OCD4EDC CME)
Ikuchi (Plan to do custom scales and might try and do a custom OCD4EDC CME compression lock tab)
Shaman (Micarta, Nub delete and OCD4EDC CME)
Just wish Spyderco would put out these in LC200N (or at least for the Kapara)
I prefer the Sage to the Para3, have for years. It just feels better in the hand than the Para3.
Sure do the 10 best discounted spyderco’s. Always enjoy your thoughts and why.
1. Kapara 💯
2. Shaman
3. PM2
4. Lil’ Native
5. Dragonfly 2
I have a PM2 in maxamet but maybe I need a Sage too. I really dislike the pocket clip situation on the Para 3, if it weren’t for that I’d get the same dress in a Para 3.
Just going by looks because I don't have any experience with them, the Gayle Bradley and the SpyOpera.
I really thought the Kapara would have made the list.
Me too.
For me as the Kapara comes from factory it’s to hard for me to use the compression lock with the slick Cf and the skinny handle near it however if it would have come with a liner lock it probably would have been high on the list for me 👌🏻
Do the top 10 spydercos of all time. My top 3 are the spydiechef, shaman and then the pm2 or para3
PM3, Chaparral LW, and I am looking for a Smock...
My favourite is the Chaparral and you didn't even mention it.
Chaparral
Manix 2
Native 5 lockback
(I'm left-handed)
Amen Paul....love the chaparral and the Dragonfly with g10 is nice too.
Nice list! Never dared buying a Maxamet blade as I am not sure I would be able to sharpen it. Plus de fact that it’s more brittle than regular S35VN. I have a spyderco tri angle sharpener, would that work?
Honestly, no it would not really be a good choice for maxamet. I had a tri angle sharpener and it made reprofiling anything a major pain. Upgraded to a KME and I can sharpen any steel in about half an hour
Stassa, I forget one older one the Montra 2 titanium cpm-m4, flipper, wire clip. 279.95msrp. The msrp for the positron mentioned above is also 279.95. Dominick
The mantra is in my top 10 discontinued Spyderco video that is coming in the next day or two. I didn’t end up keeping the Positron mine had to many issues
I have a sage 3 in blue g10
Para 3 lightweight it’s so easy to use
Para 3 👍🏻
The hollow grind and blade shape on the swayback has been getting a lot off pocket time for me lately. It was made for opening packages and cutting up cardboard.
What was the name of the pocket clip on your sage one?? It looks great, thanks for the video.
It’s a Rips Garage tech wire clip replacement clip
I would put the GB2 at the top too. For the reasons mentioned AND because it IS a "slicer". Possibly with the thinnest behind the blade measured at 7.5/1000. It's also one of the better values out there if you're loooking for a knife with CF scales and a quality blade....M4...from the factory. If you're not going to mod your knife. Most other M4 (and Alu scales) knive cost $50-50 more...it's also the ony production knife with a M4 blade and CF....oddly companies are onky offering CF scaled knives with S90V.
The "access to the lock bar"...I don't see it as an issue. It's the same on ZT's...except ZTs do include "jimping" on the bar.
My only gripe is the lack of a "sharpending choil"...then again most Spyderco's don't include one...stubborn owners of Spyderco (for some odd reason refuse to budge and include a sharpening choil like Benchmade, ZT., Kizer, yet Spyderco has one on their Smock...
I'm getting one. GB2 ...CF/M4.
Love the channel and content and seek your expert opinion, please. I live in Houston, which has a similar climate to where you’re at, I believe. How has your Maxamet held up in humid conditions? I’m strongly considering a Para 3 or Sage 1 in Maxamet, but I’m obviously concerned about the material’s corrosion resistance, of lack thereof. I appreciate your advice….
It will patina quickly in areas which doesn’t really hurt however if you sweat a lot then it may not be the best knife to get. I spray mine down with Aegis solution EDCI and it helps but I’m not outside a lot since my accident. Not sure your sharpening experience but it is also a tuff steel to sharpen but as long as your using diamond stones you can get the job done. Hope this helps 👍🏻
Thanks very much for the helpful info!
I have the original Sage 5, Para 3 and PM2. I think I will be selling the PM2 and replacing it with the GB2.

Hard to pick a Top 5. For me I have a favorite EDC... Outdoor... Work... Hard use... Fishing... etc, etc... I have a different set of favorites for each category.
My current favorite is the spydiechef, it’s a unique beast, and stays classy yet functional. It’s easy to dress up or down, and the blade geometry is solid. It won’t happen, but if there was a maxamet or k390 spydiechef, I’d empty my back account 💀
Top 3 SPYDERCO - 1. Native FRN with S35VN , 2.Manix 2 G10 with S30V , 3.Paramitary G10 S30V.
hey my friend, spyderco is my favourite brand also. i do own others , microtech, medford , zt , benchmade , pohl force , but spydies are at the price i want to spend. i own 8 spyderco s but several are discontinued , so that would leave.......the spyopera....(gorgeous small knife) paramilitary 2 and ..... para 3 as a letter opener/package ....i would love a smock but cannot get one here in the uk (shitty knife laws) and i nearly bought the gayle bradley 2. i am wanting a maxemet spydie....i am looking at the manix 2 tbh. the sage is better in the fact of the titanium scales but for me the manix 2 blade looks far better. the mxg and lynch clips ...how much do they cost you ??? not available here in the uk....shipping would probably be the same as the clip........but i do like them alot......great channel........stay safe my friend.........ian , uk. oh i also would like a lil native 👍 sage 1 maxemet or para 3 maxemet ? i think you would say sage i would say pare 3 , lol.
1) Spyderco Bob Lum Tanto
2) Spyderco ParaMilitary 2
3) Spyderco Pacific Salt full serrated
I’ve been searching for a Bradley 2 for a while now.. if you can point me in the proper direction it would be greatly appreciated
Amazon
In my opinion the Dragonfly II is one of Spyderco's most underrated knives for an EDC. It's a great knife for most people's day to day task, it's lightweight and it's inexpensive.
My top 5 EDC's that I carry.
1. Protech Manual TR3
2. Brous Blades Mini Division
3. Brous Blades VR-71
4. Spyderco Dragonfly II
5. CJRB Feldspar small (for $32 you can't beat this knife)
The Dragonfly is most certainly a great knife and it’s probably my most used Spyderco. The only reason the Lil Native beat it out in this list is that I prefer Rex 45 or S30v over my VG10 dragonfly and the Native was a gift so that’s another reason. I think when the k390 Dragonfly comes out I’ll definitely be picking one up. I use to have the ZDP one and I loved it. As far as a lightweight edc blade it’s hard to beat 👌🏻
I live in Baton Rouge and I'm glad to find a local knife channel.
@@coobay978 cool I’m in Gonzales 👍🏻
i love my manix2 far better than any of the others.
Good job but I love my Shaman
dlrmon1
Being a older collector...Top Spyderco’s of all time would better suit me...for Edc, Mantra without the big spydie hole. Kapara #2, Spydiechef #3
1 Spydiechef (slim (blade&handle), slicy, decent size, titanium, light, good looking, finish) => perfect
2 Shaman all black (bad, beefy, solid, smooth contoured handle, fidget friendly)
3 Lil´ Nativ (small but solid)
No native’s? I love me some native’s. The g10 and c/f s90v is beautiful. And the lightweight versions are cheap and can get almost any steel with it. Nice knives 👍🏻
What are your thoughts on the endura 4
It’s an excellent lighter weight larger knife, I just find that Spyderco overprices them
@@Stassa23 Yeah i paid $109 and some change at bass pro shop here in Kc. I really like the blade size along with the feel of the knife due to my large hands. I appreciate your feedback. God Bless
Dangit, you're gonna make me buy a SpyOpera aren't you?
1. lil native
2. Smok
3. Para 3
What about the Caribbean?
Spyderco knives bore me to tears, as many people know, but I am very much down with the wire clips.
I would think Spyderco would fix that lock access. I don’t get that. What do you think.
Really thought the manix 2 would be in here..
In no particular order lol.. Shaman Manix 2 and Smock
1. Spydiechef; 2. Sage 3; 3. Dice
Sage is a better slicer vs para 3. Sage winning with a thinner blade thickness.
No manix 2 love stassa ?
It’s a great knife but my beat up hands can’t handle the jimping and the lock is hard for me to manipulate
I can't believe you left the Kapara out. 🙁
I'm the only guy who don't like spiderco, I've owned several.. Benchmaade fan I guess.. 940 all-day everyday
The 940 is a great knife 👌🏻
Amalgam didn't make the list? Dang.
I can feel my Manix 2"s butt hurt all the way from my pocket.
Lol it’s a great knife but my beat up hands can’t handle the jimping 👍🏻
you never hear about the ASTUTE, for a china made budget it holds its own with any of them..
I use to own the Polestar and the Astute , both are awesome designs and I would have loved to see them do one in S35 or something like that 👍
@@Stassa23 wow! funny you said that, the polestar was my next order up
The SpyOpera beat the Shaman?!.......unsubscribing! 😉😅
A top ten list that doesn’t have the Amalgam is disappointing. Best knife Spyderco makes.
