Spyderco Forums

The earliest models had the engraved thin numbers as collectors numbers.

More information here: http://www.spydiewiki.com/index.php?tit ... ctors_club.

I have several boxes in my collection which have had a new tag on top of an older.
Very often either due to incorrect writing on the original tag or an experimental turned production :)

I also sincerely hope Sal will chime in!

I know that there's been PIG Polices with Collectors numbers, so i believe this is definitely a collectors number.

While we are on topic, and if Sal indeed chimes in, i would like to know which knife was the first with a Collectors number?

There's one picture here: http://www.angelfire.com/trek/spyderwa/
If you go a little down on the page.

I believe the gentleman who owns the site is a member here.

Beautiful pic's Wouter!

As always, i might add.

Nice addition, Paul

Welcome to the forums, John! And i believe VW is right. Those letters to the side on the label, and on your C32 Spur probably down to the right, are dates. FD would be June 2004, by the way. To be understood like this: first letter: Month of manufacture, second letter: Year of manufacture, where all...

Very nice pic's and very nice collection!

Welcome to the forums!

THAT just went into my archives, Ryan!

Thanks!

After looking into this when Mike posted his info, i believe he is correct.
I am fairly sure due to the different bladesteels.

That has INDEED been my pleasure, entirely!
Very nice collection with some really great objects.
I really wish i had one of those Meerkat displays!

There's a lot of knowledge in pic's where both the knife and the box shows.
I never knew that the earliest FRN Delica's came in boxes marked 1011 for instance.

Thanks a lot for all the great pic's, Ryan!

Well, Paul...

I've read half of your posts, at least :D

I'll have 2122!

Congrats on the 10K posts. I'll never get there, i think.

And 2 CutKits as well!

I got one of those moments when i really don't know what to say again, Rycen.
Wow! Just....WOW.

Great pic's of some really great knives!

If anyone happened to save the pic's of the Damascus police (And maybe also the Damascus military) I would be very grateful if you would PM me.

I carry the original Viele now, i carry a green Lum Chinese on occasions and i have a Micarta Dyad jr. which i carry every now and then.
Also original Spyderwrench, G10 Navigator, C09 CoPilot and a Lil'T.
None of these are in any form abused though. I have Mora's for that.

Ah...

Well, i'll have to manage with my own lousy pic's then :p
Nothing like your great ones, though, that's for sure!

Very nice again, Rycen!

I'm waiting for some kitchen cutlery here, now :)
