Re: Ladybug
My keys have worn a Ladybug everyday since March 2014. I prefer the full SE in hawkbill or standard blade shape, but all configurations are a pleasure to own.

Re: Ladybug
I’ve carried the Ladybug Rescue on my motorcycle keys ever since doing a road traffic accident responder course for removing a crash helmet from an accident victim with potential spinal injuries without faffing about with the d rings or clip.
Re: Ladybug
I have mine set up with a miniature carabiner clip (to my keychain) and I agree it works great as a "lanyard" when holding the knife.
I also have mine in a kydex sheath, because my ZDP one came open and cut me a couple times (I have way too much stuff in my key pocket, so it would catch on other stuff as I pulled my keys out).
My keychain ladybug is the serrated Hawkbill. It's an awesome little knife.

I love the Lady bug Hawkbill Salt. It's my go to knife, when I'm not obviously carrying a knife, so to speak, above even the Manbug. It cuts way above it's size and (feather) weight.

Re: Ladybug
Ladybugs are a favourite of mine. My carry ones are the LBKII and a ZDP. I don't carry them on my keys, just in the pocket.

Re: Ladybug
This model Ladybug was made for and EDC Forum called the Usual Suspects Network or USN for short. There were 600 plain and serrated made in about 2015. It took me a while to track down some new in box models since I was late to the party getting these.wolfgaze wrote: ↑Sun May 20, 2018 7:36 pmWow the green FRN scales with the DLC blades - when did those get released???Mini2white wrote: ↑Sun May 20, 2018 1:05 pmLadybugs are a favourite of mine.

Re: Ladybug
Thank you. I have them all on display so it isn't too hard to get them out. I'm looking forward to the new model about to come out.Mini2white wrote: ↑Sun May 20, 2018 1:05 pmLadybugs are a favourite of mine. My carry ones are the LBKII and a ZDP. I don't carry them on my keys, just in the pocket.

Re: Ladybug
Those Ladybugs look pretty tempting. I have Manbugs, but no Ladybugs. I might have to get a Salt.
