I have no rescue type spydies in my collection, and want to get something. I kind of like the blaze orange Assist C79 with glass breaker. I dont know much about these. What are some of the nicer or more coveted models? In particular i like colored ones.. yellow, orange, blue, whatever. Does anyone collect these, or are they too utilitarian to be cool? :rolleyes: (i think they are cool)
i didnt mean only the Assist knives but any of the "rescue" spydies. I see on ebay a waved rescue and a few others. What are some of the essential models to collectors out there?
I don't know much about collectors interest in these knives, but I can say that the Rescues are great users. I have been carrying an SE version since Boxing Day and I love it.
I'm not sure any rescue types are coveted by very many folks at all. But if you want to covet, then you have to go SS handles, that is where the rare spydies reside. Look at the Deacon's website, he has the best gallery that I know of on this subject.
The most coveted Rescue would probably have to be the D'Allara WTC edition. After that it would be probably be the older Mariner/Paramedic (SS) models followed by the rarer colored editions of the FRN models with the molded clips.
