Re: Small Spydies

http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/o751/Kevin_Bloomfeldt/image.jpg1_zpsbudm7bph.jpg Fun story... According to Sal, years ago the sales manager believed that the name "Ladybug" would not appeal to our troops, so they produced a special blister pack and labeled it LBK instead. I'm not sure...

Does this stamping seem off?

I am looking into getting my daughter her first Spydie for Christmas.... I'm thinking a purple Delica would be perfect. I came across this one on the Bay for just $45 but the stamping looks a little hokey. Thoughts?

Re: Post your Spyderco collection in one picture!

this is my meager little spydie family photo in order of acquisition from left to right. Possibly the only three LBK blister packs of this type left in existence, Delica1 PE thin clip, Endura 4 Emerson Wave, and my favorite: Dragonfly 2 G-10 foliage green. I haven't been collecting long and I have a...

Re: I'll see your Spyderco and raise you another!

I'm going to play my Delica 1 black PE Thin Clip... I see that the broad clip has been played but not this. In the interest of continuing the game I think it should count. Also previously played knife was aus8 whereas mine is G-2 http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/o751/Kevin_Bloomfeldt/image.jpg1_z...

Re: I'll see your Spyderco and raise you another!

yes you've seen the knife... although this one has no mention of "ladybug" anywhere in the packaging. I'm curious if anyone can "see" my blister pack.Image
I do have an easier one if not ;)

I have 3 LBK's in similar packaging, and this and one other Delica(fully serrated) are the only others with this style of blister pack I've ever seen... and I've scoured the net for info. I...

The best way I have found to post hi resolution photos on the forum is to open a photobucket account... upload your photos, and simply copy and paste the IMG URL from photobucket directly into your comment window along with your message.

Re: Oops I scratched my pretty blade! Enter the Dremel...(please share your ideas too!)

I did something like that trying to de rust an old cut throat razor from my grandfather. I ended up going through the wet dry sandpaper process ending up around 2000 grit. That is a cool effect but I'm OC about my knives and eventually re satin all my user, non coated knives. Scratches just come al...

Oops I scratched my pretty blade! Enter the Dremel...(please share your ideas too!)

How many times have you slipped while sharpening your blade, or hit a nail/staple etc. while cutting through material and laid a nasty gash across an otherwise flawless surface? Today my Endura 4 Emerson Wave became the latest victim. I wanted to cry, but instead I reached for the Dremel hoping to f...
