Finally got my bride to let go of her pink Spyderco to let me get a couple of pictures.Bought this at Menard's in Indianapolis about 20 years ago.I offered to let her sotre it with my Spyders but the look I got precluded me from pursuing that line again.

Here's one just like what Jerryd posted that his cousin got in Hawaii. Got mine from a chemical salesman in LA many years ago. The box is stamped "Copyright 1997". This little knife has a chisel grind and as you can see is serrated. Open it measures 6 3/4", closed it is 3 3/8". The locking device is a piece of spring wire, works very well and is super sharp! The clip can be moved to 4 different positions, they must have been pretty cheap for the salesman to be givin' 'em out as "bait".

[treefarmer]

junebug, that's good to know! Never paid much attention to this knife, have used it as a scalpel on occasion . That E-bay page had some interesting blades for that model. What do reckon they sold for when they 1st came out?
