''Interesting story here. These knives were made by Spyderco, exclusively for a Japanese chain named Mont-Bell, which happens to have stores in the USA as well. They were not suppose to be sold in the US, but apparently Mont-Bell made a mistake and some were sent here, and sold." In 2006, someone mentioned it on this Forum. Spyderco put a stop to the selling of it.'' <ref name="Forum thread 1">Forum discussion thread: Montbell Pirka [https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=91766]</ref><br />

The Mont-Bell Pirka Knife in any condition and variation would be considered a collectible knife, since they were only available in Japan and it appears only a few were sold in the USA.<br />

Some interesting questions we are looking for an answer to:<br />
* What are the precise dimensions and weight?<br />

'''K08 Santoku Polypropylene Black(re-release in 2017)'''<br />
<br />
''Spyderco’s involvement in kitchen knives dates back to the early 1980’s and the beginnings of the company’s knife production. After being discontinued a number of years ago, they are now back by popular demand and better than ever.''<br />
<br />
''The K08 Santoku has a special place in Spyderco’s history, as we were the first company to introduce a commercial santoku into the U.S. market. This unique Japanese kitchen knife design straddles the line between a traditional Asian cleaver and a Western chef’s knife and performs the tasks of both exceedingly well. Its 6.81-inch blade is made from premium MBS-26 stainless steel blade, ground exceptionally thin and meticulously heat treated for optimal edge retention. The durable black polypropylene plastic handle is injection molded directly onto the tang of the blade and features a distinctive “stepped” texture pattern that provides amazing comfort and control during use.''<br />
<br />
''If you’re a serious chef, you owe it to yourself to give the Santoku a try. Once you do, you’ll wonder how you ever got along without one.''<ref name="The K08Santoku in Spyderco's online catalog">The K08 Santoku in [https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/K08BK/67 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref><br />
<br />
==Variations==<br />
<br />
The K08 is:<br />
<br />
* originally made by Masahiro (meaning Wide-Quality) in Seki City, Japan<br />
* does not feature Spyderco's trademark round hole<br />
* features a modified [[Sheepsfoot Blade]] shape<br />
* "each blade is individually heat treated, oil quenched, and ice tempered." (according to the 1996 Ironstone Product Guide)<br />

'''FB04 Fred Perrin'''<br />
<br />
"''A former French Army Commando, world-ranked martial artist, and knifemaker, Fred Perrin's medium-sized fixed-blade is outstandingly balanced for comfort and performance. Fred is known in custom making circles for crafting knives that are first-and-foremost utilitarian. His specialty is fixed blades and they can be found on active duty military personnel around the world.''<br />
<br />
''"The Perrin" has a balance point that results from the blade and handle being equal in weight and actually balances in the finger indent, which is part of the handle. This oversized finger indent offers good control over twist and is also the balance point of the knife for controlling the sharpened edge. An injection-molded FRN handle has anti-slip Kraton inserts and a lanyard hole. Made out of VG-10, the blade is flat-ground with a swedge halfway across the top and crosshatched texturing cover the spine. Comes in a Kydex sheath with a multi-positional Tek-Lok fastening system.''" <ref name="current catalog">The FB04 Fred Perrin in [https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/FB04/44 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref><br />

<br />
'''C216 Efficient''':<br />
<br />
"''Designed from the ground up as a member of Spyderco’s popular family of affordably priced full-service folding knives, the Efficient proudly includes all the high-performance features and benefits that savvy knife users have come to expect from Spyderco knives in a format that suits practically every budget.''<br />
<br />
''The heart of the Efficient’s compact, ergonomic design is its full-flat-ground drop-point blade. Precision machined from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, its broad profile and PlainEdge™ cutting edge offer outstanding edge geometry for low-friction cutting performance. An index-finger choil (finger groove) at the base of the edge provides a comfortable purchase for a forward grip, allowing enhanced control during precise cutting chores. To ensure swift, one-handed opening, the blade also proudly features Spyderco’s signature Trademark Round Hole™.''<br />
<br />
''Built on a framework of full, skeletonized stainless steel liners and a stout stainless steel back spacer, the Efficient’s handle construction provides serious structural strength and forms the foundation of its sturdy LinerLock mechanism. To guarantee a secure, non-slip grip, the liners are capped with high-traction, textured black G-10 scales and include a generous cutout that allows easy right-handed access to the blade’s Round Hole, as well as convenient, one-handed release of the lock. To keep the Efficient poised and ready for action, it includes a reversible hourglass clip that can be configured for left or right-side tip-up carry and a lined lanyard hole for easy attachment of fobs and lanyards.''"<br />

<hr />
<div>The '''C24 BlackHawk''' and its' longer-length variant, the [[C23 Renegade]], both have a traditional [[clip point]] bowie blade and a [[Back Lock]] locking mechanism. They were designed together and are the first Spyderco knives designed without hump in the blade and a 50/50 choil to increase safety and comfort. The C23 and C24 were initially made to appeal to the "Biker" market.<br />
<br />
The C23 and C24 can be viewed as the predecessor of the [[C41 Native]].<br />
<br />
The very early C24 Blackhawks were introduced in 1994 and featured a Aluminum handle, which soon after was replaced by [[G-10]] handles.<br />
<br />
C24 name variations: "Black Hawk", "Blackhawk"<br />
<br />

<br />
Discussion on the [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?18379-snap-it-pe Spyderco forums], with pictures of The Deacon's orange EMT version.<br />
<br />
==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==<br />
<br />
Pre-dates the Spyderco web catalog.<br />
<br />
Was voted the 1993 Blade magazine "Overall Knife of the Year."<br />
<br />
[http://www.google.com/patents?id=Cq01AAAAEBAJ&zoom=4&dq=4%2C776%2C094&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q=4,776,094&f=false Sal's Patent] for the C26.<br />
<br />
The prototype originally had the snap on the back end, opposite the pivot, but was switched when it was discovered that this forced the user to rotate the knife 180 degrees before opening it, which could present a problem in an emergency.<br />
<br />
==Variations==<br />
<br />
The C26 is made in Seki-City, Japan and has<br />
* a Mar-McBurnette front lock<br />
* Built-in Wichard-style carabiner clip<br />

<hr />
<div>SpyderKeys and Hummingbirds are the same model. The early ones were all serrated and the later ones partially serrated with a key ring. All had SS bolsters (except SS model), clip-point, locking blades and are made in Japan, boxed in velvet "jewelry" type boxes. Most of the knives are embellished with various materials. In addition three are produced as tie clips.<br />

==History, mentionings from the forums etc.==<br />
<br />
On Bladeforums: [http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/437803-Spyderco-Massad-Ayoob] discussing the original version as well as plans for the sprint run that came out in 2011. Massad Ayoob comments on the design of the knife in [http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/437803-Spyderco-Massad-Ayoob?p=4182344#post4182344 post #40]. His post says:<br />
<br />
<br />
''The rationale was to get the blade directly in line with the radius bone of the forearm when the average human wrist was in the "locked" position, which puts the middle knuckle of the hand directly in line with the axis of the forearm.''<br />
<br />
''This is what gives the C60 its superior stabbing accuracy that posters in this thread have mentioned, and it also gives tremendously more penetration, because it aligns the skeleto-muscular support structure of the arm with the point (number one), and therefore with anyone who knows how to put his weight behind a punch, gets the entire body's force going directly behind the point (number two).''<br />
<br />
''As other posters have also noted, the handle-to-blade angle puts much more force behind a slash as well as a stab. Instead of the blade "skimming" over the target as it hits hard resistance such as bone, the 90 degree angle of the blade when held in reverse grip (and KEPT there by a handle shape that allows the thumb to lock it at that angle) the C60 is more likely to shear directly through whatever resistance it encounters. Because of the design features, something very similar happens with a slash from the conventional saber or pekal grasp.''<br />
<br />
''As to the tip-down carry: I'm one of those early Spyderco fans whom Sal calls "Clipiteers," [:-)] who started their Spyderco experience with the original Police model, learned to open it with a pinch-snap, and discovered we could win bets beating guys with bali-songs and even "automatic knives" in opening speed. The pinch snap uses the gross motor movement of the closed hand instead of the more fine-motor skill of using the thumb to open the blade via the original design intent of the "Spyder-hole."'' <br />
<br />
''As has also been noted (you guys n' gals are sharp, no pun intended) the C60 had ambi holes drilled so the clip could be moved for southpaws. I did not consider tip-up carry in the design parameters, and would have to go back and play with the concept a lot more to see how well it would work in that fashion. I realize that a lot of folks are as habituated to tip-up carry as I am to tip-down.''<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In the aforementioned thread, Massad tells us that the pronunciation of his first name rhymes with "brass".<br />

For more than four decades he has taught defensive knife and firearm programs and appears frequently as an expert witness in trials involving edged weapons. Along the way he developed an all-purpose tactical folder suited to his preferences that is the Spyderco C60 Massad Ayoob CLIPIT. <br />
<br />
Most unusual about his folder is its radical angle of the handle to the blade. Ayoob explains: “With a typical knife, thrusting lifts the blade’s point above the line of the forearm, like a boat prow going through water. The faster, harder or more resistance encountered, the higher the prow rises deviating the blade off course from its original target which can mitigate the depth of the cut and can cause the blade to literally ‘skid’ when a resistant surface is hit.” <br />
<br />
The C60’s radical angle brings the blade into line with the long bones of the forearm, channeling the body’s force directly behind the line of the cut resulting in minimized blade deviation and maximized accuracy. Because of the blade to handle angle, the Ayoob has a short opening arc, translating into fast opening.<br />
<br />
The Spyderco Masaad Ayoob features also include a PlainEdge VG-10 stainless steel blade with a deep belly for maximized slicing potential. It has a notably strong lock-back with a David Boye style release lever that helps ensure safe lock-up. The black G-10 handle has an ergonomic thumb rest at the rear of the blade and a steel pocket clip for right/left hand tip-down carry.<br />
<br />
The Spyderco Ayoob is a limited number Sprint Run. The C60G Massad Ayoob in [http://spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=685 Spyderco's online catalog].<br />

<div>The C59 Eduard Bradichansky Shabaria was introduced in 1999 and discontinued in 2003.<br />
<br />
The C59 Shabaria was Spyderco's first in a series of ethnic inspired knives (See [[Etnich series]]). Nomads in the Jordan River Valley have carried a knife called a Shabaria. The design of the C59 is inspired by these knives.<br />
<br />

''Knives and history are reflections of each other. Paleolithic flint tools to modern folding knives; they exist to perform the simple purpose of cutting. Jordan River Valley nomads centuries ago made and carried a curved fixed-blade called a Shabaria for agriculture and protection.''<br />
<br />
''Israeli knife designer, Eduard Bradichansky, co-mingled the Shabaria's traditional utilitarian profile into a modern folding knife. Mr. Bradichansky was a gunsmith and gifted jeweler by trade, new to the knifemaking community, but already attracting collectors and enthusiasts to his fresh design work and crafting skills. His career cut short, he fell victim to a terrorist attack on the West Bank.''<br />
<br />
''Spyderco is re-releasing a Sprint Run of his Shabaria folder with VG-10 stainless PlainEdge blade and carbon fiber handle. At first grasp, the handle's hourglass/coffin-shape feels slim and odd in the hand but the conveyance of balance and comfort immediately follows. The light carbon fiber handle has a black steel clip embellished with a gold Spyderco bug and positions the folder for right-hand, tip-down pocket carry. A straightforward easy to access and open Michael Walker LinerLock graces the handle's underside.''
