Yea, these types of items have been around for sometime. They are promotional items given out at trade shows and the like. Often you got a little pin when you joined the Collector's Club. I think I got an ATR, if my memory serves me correctly.

Nice sampler.

I have the Caspian pin, very nicely done, and would love to get a few more.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Thanks. FWIW, the company that makes them for Spyderco is

Empire Pewter Manufacturing Co. USA
P.O. Box 15
Amsterdam, New York
12010

Back in 2006 4ster posted that their email address was epminc@nycap.rr.com and that he'd emailed them for a catalog which contained the ones which were still available from them. Not sure if the email is still valid or not, but it might be worth a try.

No, I'm missing a fair number the older ones: Police, Centofante II, Military, Native, and the red version of the Endura.

sfo has the black lapel pin in stock right now. 3.95 plus 2 dollars s/h and you'll have it 2 or 3 days later. :)
