Spyderco Display Case?

[Vess]

I asked this on Bladeforums too, but this might be a better place for it. My question was: Is it possible to buy a Spyderco display case like the ones they have in stores? Big, from transparent plastic, with multiple cuts that form shelved to place knives on. I saw one on EBay last year, but couldn't get it.



Any ideas?



Maybe a special order from Spyderco?



I am only asking because I seem to be running out of places to put all the Spydies I already have, and I plan on more...



Also, is it bad for the knife/lock if it stays open for a long time? I don't imagine so, since that puts less strain on the lock/spring, and theoretically could even be beneficial in the long run. Or am I way off here?



Any thoughts?



Thanks!

Vess-

I saw one on e-bay and it went for about 25 bucks. It looked real cool. The only reason I didn't bid on it is because I just have one spyderco knife.

Anyway good question-happy hunting

Yep, I saw that one too, but it was "will ship to US only" type of thing. I only saw one available to Canada in the past year or so, and if I recall it went for $60+.

It may be a long wait until the next one shows up on EBay, that's why I am trying to find one someplace else. I have a dozen Spydies now, and no way to display them... <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Vess ~ Have you considered 'Spydiepaks' <a href="http://www.spyderco.com/online_product_ ... 1K10">here at the Spyderco Online shop</a> They come in 16 or 32 pocket versions.

Ken,

You need to refocus them priorities, my short <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>ed brother! Buy the display case with thelofty intention to fill it to the brim!! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Your right but I have more hindsight than foresight!
Does that sound right???

Yep, I am now giving serious consideration to SpydiePacks, and maybe some of those little crystal stands for individual knives too.

The display case would be so much easier... But I guess a 24-pack of little stands and a nice glass-front closet from Home Depot will be enough.

Hmmm... I wonder if I can convince my local Spydie dealer to part with his display stand... <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Nah, just kiddin' <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Vess, I purchased two older unused in the original Spyderco box Spyderco display cases about a year ago on ebay from "knife-yenta", I paid about $90.00 each with s&h. I believe he has a store in NY and he is always selling knives on ebay. You might want to contact him and see if he has anything.

[Vess]

Hey! Thanks! I will try that. I have bought something from him on EBay in the past I believe, but never looked at his online store.

Check ebay: SPYDERCO 8 KNIFE LUCITE DISPLAY TOWER/NEW
Item # 2154753064

Yep.

Saw it too this morning. The question now is money! lol <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> I've gone and ordered yet another Spydie already... Hopefully I'll still be able to try and bid on this thing before it's gone.

Thanks for Remembering Me! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
