My Top 3 Spyderco’s For EDC
Spyderco Dragonfly 2
When I first held the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 in my hand, I thought it was too small. However, I overlooked the small stature of the knife and decided to carry it for a couple weeks. After a few days the practicality of the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 won me over. Weighing in at 1.2 oz. 33g, I never realized the Dragonfly 2 was in my pocket. At my work, the Dragonfly 2 flew under the radar and didn't catch the eye of my supervisors (supposed to use safety knives), making the Dragonfly 2 a mainstay for my EDC work kit. Not to mention when this small of a knife comes with VG10 steel and a legit finger choil, the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 sold me as a blue collar EDC knife. Being that the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 sells for around $50, I personally had to buy me one. Get Yours Here
Spyderco Delica 4
I sometimes need a knife bigger than the Spyderco Dragonfly 2, and while there are size differences between the Dragonfly 2 and Delica 4, I figured, for a working knife, I need to jump to the Delica 4. I'm still getting a blade in VG 10 steel, but with the ability to take on bigger tasks that the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 couldn't. The Delica 4 weighs in at 2.5 oz, which still goes virtually unnoticed in my pocket. I love the Spyderco Delica 4 because it’s a universal knife, everyone from a Boy/Girl Scout to my Grandparents can find use in this knife. I've used the Spyderco Delica 4 to slice fruit and vegetables, cut paracord and rope, shave sticks, cut boxes, and honestly, do a ton of other EDC tasks that knives in this price range can't compete with. Which brings me to my next point, the PRICE! I'm really kind of a cheapo when it comes to buying knives, but seriously at around $65, you can't beat the Spyderco Delica 4. I saw the practicality in the Delica 4’s medium size and knew it would be a top performer in my weekly rotation. Available Here
Spyderco Paramilitary 2
Last, but not least, the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 is what I consider my EDC heavy hitter. Seriously, the Paramilitary 2 can be relied upon to obviously do the task my Spyderco Dragonfly 2 can do, but also be ready for the Post Apocalyptic world. Do you think I'm joking? There are videos around with this knife being put through its paces, even beating out the lockup of the Axis lock. If only I knew about this knife in my Army days, it would have been my EDC 100% OF THE TIME. S30V steel is one thing that attracted me to the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 (or S110V), in addition to its size, which is somewhere I'd say between the Delica 4 and Endura, but weighing in at 3.75 oz (heavier than the other two, but still practical). I think it’s safe to say that there isn't a task I haven't been able to do with the Spyderco Paramilitary 2, well, except tasks that I wouldn't normally do with a folding knife. I like my Spyderco Paramilitary 2 for the simple fact that it's a super premium knife at only a $130 price point. While that is expensive for me, I can justify spending my money on the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 when I'm in the market for a knife of this caliber. Great Price on Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Here
