I found these in the back of one of my safes. Should I carry them?

Those are sweet, but I think you should just send them to me instead.

to AAPK, lots of knife info and knife nuts here.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of Spyderco Knives, however that one is marked Swiss made and they have ATS 34 Steel. The ATS 34 is one of my favorite using steels and it has pretty well disappeared from the market except for older knives. When you can find it in a new knife it's very expensive.
It's also a collaboration with a known maker and they're limited edition numbered, I would do some checking and see what they're selling for right now before I stick in my pocket and start using it. It may surprise you how much it's worth.

Let’s see....
Spyderco, nuff said. Of course of pack them. Unless you want to sell them. If your gonna keep them, why would you not pack them?

Since you have two, why not EDC one and keep the other one mint in the safe? Seems like the perfect arrangement to both collect AND carry.

Great advice. Life is too short.

I have seen the plain edge sell for over $400 in the last two years.
"Very sought after and difficult to find. This is the first knife designed for Spyderco by the famous knifemaker Michael Walker, inventor of the liner lock. This unique Spyderco has the disctinction of being Swiss Made, in the same factory that produces the very well-made Klotzli Knives, of which many are also designed by Michael Walker. This one is early production with ATS-34. Great little linerlock with blue anodized pivot and liner. Satin finish spear point blade is numbered 1738. Carbon fiber scales. Tip down carry clip of blued titanium. Nice blade seating, lockup and detent. Comes with original zippered case. Excellent condition."

Even though I have a couple harder to find knives in my rotation, I'd sell those and buy something I wouldn't mind to use and carry. Spyderco often does really short runs, and they can be really high value.

Welcome to AAPK!! I have to agree with "Q". I would put one up and carry the other. But it's Your Choice!!
