No Logo Salsa

#1

Post by rickh »

I recently received a Blue Salsa without the salsa logo. I've never seen them without the logo other than the Ti, black versions and the cranberry one on Mr. Blonde's site. Anyone familier with this?

The Salsa I bought from SFO a few weeks ago came without the Salsa logo on the handle. I haven't decided if i like it better that way or not yet.

I recently got a new one just like yours. Maybe that's the way they're coming now.

Hi all - All the original Salsa's came with the etching. Only the TI model was the exception. Later (last year) the black Salsa was introduced without the etching. These colored ones are new to me and it could be to the fact that the Salsa is dicontinued and the producer in Taiwan has delivered the last batch without the etching. Also the fact that SFO is selling them and that they were not announced or advertised anywhere, tells me it concerns the leftovers of this Little Big Knife. Now be aware that this very fact will make especially these "naked" models very collectable as there will not be many around.
Cheers, Jurphaas.

Thanks for the info everyone. I'm happy with the logo-less version. I had posted on BF Wanted to Buy section looking for this very thing before I even ordered from SFO. What a surprise when Syderco sent me this one.

That's a very pretty Salsa. I like it without the logo. I am not a fan of the word Salsa and the little pepper on the side.

Does the above Salsa actually have black hardware and a black cobra hood? It seems as it is just the lighting with the grey background.
I hope the next time I move I get a real easy phone number. Something like, 222-2222. I would say sweet. People would say, "Mitch, how do I get a hold of you?" I would say, "Press 2 for a while, and when I answer, you will know that you have pressed 2 enough. -Mitch Hedburg

The Salsa above has a sort of matte gray hardware. I'm viewing the images on a calibrated Lacie monitor. Does it really look black on everyone elses? If so I might need to make a few adjustments. Thanks.

I'm viewing on a 17" Dell Flat Panel. It looks matte gray to me. The hood just looks light silver. It doesn't even look dark gray or black on my monitor.

There black on mine.
First they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not stand up, because I was not a Trade Unionist.

ive seen this once before. i got one in at work once. about 6 months ago, and put it aside to buy at the end of my shift, and another associate sold it while i was on luch. i belive it is just a fluke, a mistake from the factory, but its quite a neet find. hope this helps a bit

I bought a blue Salsa from SFO several months ago and it had no pepper logo.

Just ordered one (ok, 2) on Friday from the SFO. The woman with whom I spoke said they had both versions (with and without the logo) for the blue one in stock. I chose the non-logo version.
