The earlier ones did not have the bug logo on the blade. I believe it was added to protect the brand and to help make fakes easier to spot or less profitable for the fake makers.
Used to be JR in CT with a much earlier join date. :rolleyes: :spyder: Native in 440v was my gateway Spyderco! :spyder:

Looks like (to my relatively untrained eye) some Delicas, some Dragonflys, prob some Police, maybe a PAC Salt, some Grasshopers (?) And perhaps a couple o' few Endurances? Nice little collection at any rate!

EDIT: I take it back; what I thought were Police now look more like Enduras to me.
My collection so far: 52100 Military (2); 52100 PM2 (2); 52100 Para3; Stretch2 V-Toku; KnifeWorks M4 PM2; BentoBox M390 PM2; BentoBox S90V Military; Police4 K390; S110V PM2; SS Delica AUS-6; Wayne Goddard Sprint VG-10
Wish list: Hundred Pacer; Sliverax; Mantra; 52100 PM2 SE; Kapara

Top row left to right: First generation Delica, third generation Delica, fourth generation SS Endura, Sprint run Tenacious.
Second row: SS Dragonfly, third gen Endura, Tenacious and Native.
Third row: FRN Dragonfly, Tenacious, Bug, Gen 4 FRN Endura.
Fourth row: SS Dragonfly, Gen 2 Delica, Gen 2 Endura, Bug
Bottom: SS Delica 4

Best I can do from that picture.

Edit to add: that last one in the fourth row may be a Honeybee.

Ladybug, Manbug, Ladybug3 Hawkbill Salt, Ladybug3

More information can be found on all of these at www.spydiewiki.com

Edit: that's a ProGrip, not a ProVenator. My bad.

Thanks everyone.

I just received my first spydie, a Manix 2 lw in Maxamet, for my wedding and I am hooked.

Want more in my life.

That Vesuvius is a sought after piece. Of all the knives shown thats the stand out one to me.

 But in reality, there is nothing quite like a gun. And it has been said, "The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun".

 Does that complexity decrease the simplicity? Not at all.
