SKU is short for Stock Keeping Unit. The SKU is an identifier for products - knives in this case. Spyderco's SKUs can be divided into the following:
Spyderco C-SKUs
All SKUs used by Spyderco that begin with a "C" are reserved for folding knives (maybe derived from ClipIt)
Spyderco B-SKUs
The SKUs starting with a "B" indicate the knife to be a Balisong knife.
Spyderco FB-SKUs
SKUs starting with "FB" designate the knives of Spyderco's fixed blade line.
Spyderco J-SKUs
The SKUs starting with "J" are reserved for the Jester models.
Spyderco K-SKUs
SKUs with a "K" at the beginning are reserved for Spyderco's kitchen knives
Spyderco L-SKUs
The SKUs that start with an "L" belong to the Ladybug models.
Spyderco T-SKUs
Until today only three models hold an SKU starting with a "T". These are the TC07 Tie Clip, the T01 SpydeRench and T02 SpyderSaw.
SKUs that fall out of this System
Spyderco also used some other SKUs that fall out of this System because they either consisted completely of numbers, they are completely different to all other SKUs or an alphabetical character was used for a model that was never used again for another one. These models are:
- 2001 Pre Diver
- 2002 Probe
- 2003 Mini Probe
- 3001 Mini Mariner
- 3002 SpyderKey (Hummingbird)
- MN07 Mini Police Necklace
- RL01 Ramco Laguiole
- SP-M120 Utility Paring Knife
- SP-M240 Carving Knife
- SP-M300 French Cook Knife
- WTC World Trade Center Rescue
