Spyderco Forums

I've just bumbled along & found this thread, which reminded me of something I mocked up in wood a couple of years back. The steel got cut out & then things got in the way. (Sal's seen it before.)
It seems to fit with some of the Wharnie/Sheepfoot ideas, crossed with the "Big Jester". There's jimping ...

None at all. The bug has been on my keyring & in my pocket every day since I got it.

My bug lives on my keyring in it's own sheath:

& I made one for a friend too, with a slightly different design:

I bought one as soon as they came out. Kinda disappointed with this one. Fit and finish is as I expect from Spyderco products, however the the lock-up is very weak. When it's in the open position I can very easily push the blade forward to unlock it. There's almost no tension to the back-spring. It ...

There are other views of the same knives, on BritishBlades.com somewhere, if you want them

It was an Orange G10 UKPK for me.

What are you posed to do if you own more than 60 knives.... :confused: , another forum genius..... :rolleyes: ...This is scary :p Doc :p

Easy!

Divide your knives into 2 sets. Ensure that you have your "essential" options in one set & use the otehr set for your decorative / klingon death blades ...

It's my tern to win!

Hard to tell from your picture, but this is my Mix'n'match Urban (in real foliage green)
