History, mentionings from the forums etc.

Some information from Sal Glesser posted on the BladeForums:

The 201 was narrow, no flairs at the bottom, 40 degrees angle only, 2 brass safety guards. We realized early on that it was too narrow and added flanges on the front half for greater support which was the 202.[1]

Information from the Spyderco catalog

Spyderco's specialty ceramic sharpeners:

The extreme hardness of ceramic abrasives (9.2 MOHS) makes them ideal for cutting hardened and tempered metal. The uniform molecular structure provides a predictable "scratch pattern" and the surface exhibits excellent wear characteristics. No lubrication is required, which makes ceramics perfect for sterile and sanitary applications. Simple clean-up is achieved with common cleanser and a non-metallic pad such as a SCOTCH-BRITE®.[2]
