Yesterday I bought a discontinued LADYBUG™ II BLACK FRN LBKII serrated sheepsfoot like the one below from a guy in a parking lot. I was there for the Ontario SP-1 and SP-10 he had on CraigsList but he also had a ziplock bag full of pocket knives that he bought from the State Surplus Store in Austin, mostly SAKs and this one Spydie. Today I noticed the Ladybug had three initials faintly engraved on the blade. Send me a PM and tell me the initials and I will return your knife to you.

Very interesting! I didn't know there had been a sheepsfoot version of the LB.
Not mine, but I hope whoever lost it can get it back! Good on you Mad Mac for trying. :cool:

I used to carry one of those many years ago. Good on you for trying to find its original owner.

Hey Mac,
Just wanted to say good on you for going out of your way to help someone out. If you manage to find the owner, I'm sure they will be eternally grateful.

I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
