Most Expensive Spyderco by MSRP

#1

Post by smikesmith3 »

I was checking out some sites today and noticed a Delica Damascus, Jigged Bone Handle Plain - SKU C11JBBP.

MSRP is saying $2,439.95 :eek:

I love Spyderco's but that seems a little much for me. Is this even the real price? If so why so much and where is this knife from.

Thanks,

Mike

i recall some site asking like 12K for a spyderco :eek: . i believe the most expensive one(s) is either the commerative workers in a case or the dinosaur bone. i am betting on the dino bone.

what you are mentioning is the anniversary delica. here is a link to the spydiewiki page on it. if you ever have a question on a particular model that is the quickest way to find out usually.

Delica and Endura are great knives! They're the low priced crack samples that'll get you hooked on spyderco! Feed the need!

Very nice RIOT.
I like the mirror-finish on the blade a lot.

Does it have a pocket clip?

Spyderbug.com has a price guide for most models and includes the MSRP, it's available for download over here:http://spyderbug.com/downloads/

Looks like the anniversary Delica is the most expensive on that list as well.

AFAIK, the Spyderco offering with the highest MSRP was the Evolution Set which cost $495 in 1994, but consisted of two knives. Highest MSRP for a single knife was the C22 CF Michael Walker at $456 in 1999, with the C27 Horn at $449 in 1998 a close second.

Actual MSRP for the C76 25th Anniversary Delica was a mere $350. Again AFAIK, there has never been a C11JBBP.

Some websites put absurd prices on items they know are permanently out of stock, assuming it will discourage people from ordering them. Sometimes the "idiot proofing" ploy works, sometimes not.
