@Evil D these are all the same magnification/zoom level right? Wasn’t sure how you assembled either the knives or pics…

Thanks for the very generous contest, David!

I think I’ve got a close guess, but I’m wondering if you might be willing to say if every edge is from a different model/platform or if a repeat is possible? Thanks!

In the mean time, here’s my current feeling:
1. Spyderhawk
2. Rock Lobster
3. Non-CQI Military
4. Ulize
5. Shaman
6. Sliverax

Well guys you had me feeling kinda bad like I made this too hard? I was so sure this right here was a dead giveaway:




On the top corner you know it's PE, but that line on the bottom right I was sure would give it away. How many knives has Spyderco made that have a hard edge in the side of the blade, and what kind of knife could that be? Maybe a.....TANTO!





So yeah I had to take apart 6 knives to make this shot, and ended up only being able to get 5 taken apart because that M4 tanto Para 2 wasn't coming apart so I made it work. As I said before I really wanted to get more edges into that shot but this was honestly a PITA so I stopped at 6 edges.

I thought I made it too hard until this post right here, and then I started wondering if Attila was secretly stalking me because this guess was almost spot on, even the non-CQI Military part was correct and I thought was smart thinking since the current CQI Military has not been offered in SE. The only one you got wrong was the Sliverax but given how much I like that model I can't say it was a bad guess.

So.... consolation prize....do you want the knife or the mug? Your pick

WHOA!!! I had my doubts about a few of my choices, especially that last one!

I didn’t know that you had a Tanto PM2, and I even saw that discoloration, but I had to take a guess. I didn’t even consider that it could be a bevel change.

I’m very grateful for being the winner, and I have been interested in trying SPY27, so that’s what I’ll choose.

Thanks again!!

If Evil D starts complaining in a few days about missing screws we know why this time…

Nah they're all back together. The bowl system works pretty well. That Ulize is a bit of a bear to get back together though.

I had some luck last week with cleaning and changing scales on one of my pm2’s.
Got a phone call and my phone was charging when going to pick up one of my dogs apparently was curious what i was doing so he pushed over the bowl with small parts and ended up with a missing bushing… took me 45 minuts to find the darn thing.
