Let's see some of your rarest Spydies!

[DrHE]

Wow! Fantastic collections all. I had a Spydercard that was a SE. Haven’t seen one in years. Now I have to dig into my stuff and find a few of mine.

This thread is full of great knives.

Sorry no photos.

They are all difficult to get now I think.

I’m not sure… is the Euro Edge rare?
I don’t hear much about it on the forum.

I really like this knife, it’s one of my favorites. It’s a total safe queen. I remember someone saying “the Euro Edge locks up like a bank vault” I’d say that’s quite an accurate assessment. It’s liner lock is quite stout. It’s almost hard to explain how excellent this knife is…
It’s a real tribute to the Taiwan factory’s skill.

Love this one. I need to find the clip though. I was using it as a third-pocket knife unclipped

Not so sure about rare? My Wegner Jr.

I'd love to see an R.
Was there a Nishijin R, or is that just a pigment of my immigration?

Yep, there was a black Nishijin R.

This model is so nice! I still regret passing on it when they were available. I remember trying to find one when they were first discontinued, they disappeared rapidly. Ed Schempp really has an eye for design and this model is no exception. Thanks for sharing.

According to Sal, this TiNi coated PE 1st gen. Mariner was "one of a handful" they made to test the coating.

2000 Spyderco Forum Military, one of the rarest Forum models

2002 Forum Centofante Vesuvius, another rare Forum model.

WTC Knives

Spyderco Sashimi Knife, one of the rarer "Kitchen Sharps"

Pinned Red Bone Kiwi, one of a dozen or so pre-production prototypes made this way. Sal liked the version without pins better, so that one went into production.

Bolstered Coocbolo Stretch, one of 2.

[JonLeBlanc]

Yep, there was a black Nishijin R.

Oh, nice! That's one I'd love to see Spyderco bring back for a Sprint or something (not even necessarily the Nishijin).

[benben]

Deacon for the win!

[Manixguy@1994]

Thank you Deacon ! I remember the Mariner and of course thenStretch . MG2

Not sure which is more rare, the necklace or the tieclip.



With a first gen C07S for scale.

Just got my second Rookie. It didn't have a clip. Found this "thin blue line" clip. That's what I call it.
Spyderco installed it for me. The liner didn't line up with the screw holes, and I was worried I would strip it doing it myself. They also gave it a fresh sharpening cuz it had a small chip.
