Me too. For awhile they were a regular item, but not lately.

A bit of a thread resurrection.. Just curious as to which version of the Spyderench is considered most rare/sought after?
I have been told both the O.G. US made PE one and the Taiwan made one.

Not sure which model is the most rare or the hardest to find. But I have to believe that my GOLDEN, CO made, First Generation unit must be tough to come by now a days because in the past year I've turned down a couple of really lofty offers.

Also I really like the 440C blade on the GOLDEN made units>> which is one of the twelve reasons I'll probably never part with my original Spyderench.

That would be my model of choice JD. You own a piece of Spyderco treasure!

Now the Taiwan made units weren't really bad at all and I kind of wish I would have kept that last one I had. But there is something special about the ones made in GOLDEN, CO.

I wish that guy Marty who designed the original would go back to the drawing board and come up with another unique multi-tool for Spyderco. Now that Spyderco's popularity has gone up considerably I bet a multi-tool would sell good in today's market.

I agree . I love the whole idea of a Spyderco Multitool. I've a small collection of Swisstools, Gerber and Leatherman tools, but the Spyderco is definitely the missing King of the Hill for me!

One for sale on the Bay...$630. Wow!!!!

Did it actually sell for that price or is that just what they were asking on a "Buy It Now" price? I can't imagine someone paying six C-notes for a Spyderench. But I guess stranger things have happened. I did turn down a $250 offer for my Golden made Spyderench. I like mine and I'll probably never sell or trade it. Again I kind of wish I never would have traded that Taiwan made Spyderench when I did.

If that guy named "Marty" who designed the original Spyderench is still active I would love to see him design another one. I bet Spyderco could do well if they had a Spyderench 2 to put on the market.

[bearrowland]

Believe it or not, there's actually 25 bids on it. It's a Golden version, complete with a box. Maybe Sal might do well with a sprint run if they're actually getting interest on them at that price ?!

I agree on a 2nd version.

That is beyond belief. This is an excellent reason that my desire to see the C-60 Ayoob model return may be the start of a "frenzy" for old school Spyders.
Heck at this rate I ought to put up one of my C-46 Lum Tanto folders for sale or trade.

But if they could get "Marty" ( the designer of the Spyderench) to do a Spyderench 2 model they might do really well in a second time around.

[bearrowland]

It went for somewhere North of $650 U.S.!! Sal, there's money in this gem!

Maybe I should put my first Gen 440C PE up on Ebay? :D :eek:

[bearrowland]

I can save you all of the stress and worry Stuart....let me give you my address and I'll give it a good home

[Stuart Ackerman]

Last look... :D

Please Don't :) Because I want the value to continue to escalate. And we need to conserve Spyderco tradition as well.

The Golden Made Spyderenchs are truly a piece of Spyder-History.

But I do want to see a new Spyderco Multi-tool of some sort.

[bearrowland]

Missed out on a Byrdrench today. There's a Spyderench on the Bay but it's beyond my means.

[kobold]

I was late the other day, it was gone in two hours. USA made SpydeRench, $165.

[bearrowland]

I'd love to have the Spyderench, but I'd gladly take either. I keep hoping I'll be walking along and find one lying along the road

[JD Spydo]

Maybe I should put my first Gen 440C PE up on Ebay? :D :eek:

I object>> because there are some things that are simply worth more than money>> and a piece of Spyder History can sure qualify at times like this. However it is beyond belief what some of these older models are getting on the secondary markets.

[bearrowland]

I agree JD
