Any thoughts on a Manbug with a serrated Hawkbill bladae in H1? Or Warnie in Full flat?

FFG Wharnie Salt? That sounds like LC200N.
That combination would get my money on just about any model.

Sometimes, even three SE knives on me at one time.
Three knives on you at once? :eek: That makes you... pretty normal, for our standards.
I will forever be a wannabe in here as the only time I carry more than one knife is on my way to or from the post office :)

Jazz, we are all shocked and surprised that a wharnie Manbug would interest you in the slightest.

I have both, bought the Manbug before finding this forum, and I never use it. In contrast the Ladybug is one of my most used knives.
The Ladybug aside from the very useful hawkbill, has thinner blade stock and slices better too.
Thanks Turbo.
Thanks Bloke.

:p What makes you say that? This little FFG Manbug would be awesome. I know the Delica works great.
- best wishes, Jazz.

I hope we get a JazzBug, and you can make a lot of videos.

If that knife came out, I’d make a video of the PE, and the SE. I can just feel the slicing power right to the tip. I can dream and hope.
... and somehow, it’s still Bloke’s fault. :p

Ah, hahaha! Good on you, foofie, I’m sure you’ll be very happy with the little knife.
Let us know what you think after you’ve played with it for a bit. :)

I’m a big fan of this little knife as well!
I did a blade swap with a USN black blade LBHB and a regular black handle Ladybug.
I would absolutely LOVE to see an all black LBHB in the regular production lineup! :spyder:
I think Spyderco doesn't offer enough all black knives :D

Don't know fellas. I have enough trouble keeping track of a bright yellow and silver one. :)

I'm not saying all black is always better, I just wanna see more options. The knife in this photo is really nice looking.

Hey toni, I definitely know what you mean. It is a good looking little knife and I’m certainly for more options. Maybe my post came across as though I’m not but that wasn’t my intention. :o
Have you seen the green FRN and black blade Ladybugs? They were very nice too and came in both SE and PE Hawkbills. I don’t like coated blades generally but actually looked to buy one a while back to no avail unfortunately. :)

Hi Bloke, all is good :)
Yes, I've seen the green handle ladybugs, they look nice but this all black is fantastic.

I already have the yellow one and LOVE it but it needs this blackout version to keep it company

4 months ago when I was carrying only hawkbills I pressed mine into service doing impromptu heater hose repair on a friends truck. This little knife cut through hose, plastic and did some prying. The blade is now pretty off center, I haven’t tried to fix it. But it survived and doesn’t seem any worse off.... I need to carry it more. It’s been a while. She’s tougher than you’d think.
