==Appearance in catalogs==

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

C28BK:

"''Many of us buy small gentlemen's knives assuming we'll use them for undemanding cutting chores. While that is normally the case, the Dragonfly's diminutive size belies its cutting capabilities. When need be, it will cut and perform like a much larger folder because Spyderco's R&D team focused on creating a small but ergonomically superior package out of high-performance materials.''

''In order for the knife to feel like a larger knife in the hand, it needed well-designed ergonomics. A forefinger-choil and thumb-rest give the hand purchase points, filling out the palm and offering cutting control. Its leaf-shaped blade is flat-ground VG-10 and the Spyderco Round Hole is 11mm facilitating easy opening. FRN handle is textured with Volcano-Grip and a tip-up integral pocket clip. Low profiled and weighing just over one ounce, the Dragonfly is one of the flagship models in Spyderco's Little Big Guy Knife line up.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C28BK Dragonfly in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=15 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

C131 Terzuola Slipit

2009-12-19T20:33:49Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C131 Terzuola Slipit was introduced in 2009. The C131 is the first Spyderco model featuring the [[Ball Joint]] non-locking mechanism.

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C131 Terzuola Slipit appeared in the following [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/download.php catalog]:
* 2009 Spyderco Mid-Year Product Guide Supplement

==Designer==

[[Robert "Bob" Terzuola]], a custom knife maker in USA.

[[Bob Terzuola Makers mark]]

==History, mentionings from the forums etc.==

[[Spyderco forums]]:
* [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38254 Review and discussion] of the C131 started by "FLYBYU44".
* [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39249 Comments] on the [[Ball Joint]] non-locking mechanism.

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

"''You see interesting knives and equally interesting people when walking the aisles of a knife show. Small by business standards and specialized in nature, the cutlery industry has names everyone knows. One is Bob Terzuola, we call him Bob T. Bob’s made handmade knives since the 1970s, has collaborated with the top production companies and acknowledged as the founder of tactical knifemaking. In our small industry he’s rock star. His designs are clean, militaristic, finely polished and perceived as having a high-level of performance and physical appearance. His fourth collaboration with Spyderco is the Bob T SLIPIT.''

''SLIPITS are a new benchmark in knives, non-locking one-hand open folders with pocket clips. Bob T’s SLIPIT has a CMP-S30V modified Wharncliff blade that to close must overcome the resistance of a small ball bearing. Bob calls this a Ball Joint non-locking system; he’s developed and refined on many custom pieces for close to a decade. The Ball Joint also half-stops the blade when closing for safety. Behind the cutting edge he placed a finger choil/guard keeping the index finger away from the open blade and keeping the blade from closing on the hand when cutting. He also made the blade under three inches keeping it legal in most jurisdictions and countries (England and Germany to name a couple) for carry anywhere. Carbon fiber handle and backspacer make this carry friendly SLIPIT both hi-tech and luxurious. Left/right pocket clip is nested in its’ mounting and won’t pivot or loosen. A folded leather lanyard comes with it, tied off with a silver crimp.''"

C127 Urban

2009-05-10T11:12:39Z

The C127 Urban is a non-locking folder ([[SLIPIT]]) that was introduced in 2009. The Urban is available with different blade shapes and handle colors.

==Appearance in catalogs==

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

C127FG:

"''Laws and guidelines for carrying pocketknives are changing in countries all over our world. Several countries have enacted restrictions and parameters on folding knives, specifically on blades that lock open. Spyderco addressed this by developing a series of non-locking folders we call Slipits. Slipits are traditional Spyderco folding and clip knives (we’ve always called them CLIPITS) but have non-locking blades. Slipit blades are safely held open by a notched or slip-joint located at the knife’s pivot. Closing the blade, the notch produces resistance functionally similar to traditional slip-joint penknives. Heightening control and safety, a deep finger choil positions the index finger behind the blade directly under the thumb. This allows choking up nearer the cutting edge with comfort and dexterity. Positioning the index finger in the choil additionally keeps the blade from closing while cutting.''

''The Urban Slipits feature G-10 handles: C127OR Urban Wharncliffe Blade with safety orange G-10 handle and C127FG Urban Leaf-shaped Blade with Foliage Green G-10 handle. Both have screw together handle construction for adjusting and cleaning and feature a left/right-hand tip up silhouette wire pocket clip. Their blades are flat-ground VG-10 available PlainEdged with slip-resistant jimping at the blade spine and along the finger-choil.''"<ref name="current catalog1">The C127FG Urban in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=381 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

"''Custom knifemakers are more than simply steel junkies. Ed Schempp is a wheat farmer, metallurgist and celebrated knifemaker whose Persian Folder introduces Classic Western with Exotic East. Persian knives traditionally are fixed blades but Ed integrates this indigenous shape into a folding knife. Comprised of graceful curving lines, the new smaller Persian Folder 75mm is eye-catching with black Micarta handle scales capped by polished stainless bolsters. On the handle a series of finger choils position the hand for complete control over the cutting edge. Its Eastern inspired blade arches into a curving belly and ends in a graceful upswept tip. The 2-15/16” (75mm) blade is made of high-performance VG-10 steel (hollow-ground) with a prominent hump positioned above the hole as a thumb leveraging spot. The pocket clip positions the folder to carry right-handed tip-up. A small portion of steel removed from the locking lever offers additional lock safety and is called a David Boye Dent. It permits tightly gripping the handle without grasping with enough force to inadvertently disengaging the lock during use.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C105 Persian 75mm by Ed Schempp in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=204 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

C104 Ed Schempp Kris

2009-02-02T20:07:31Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C104 Kris by Ed Schempp was introduced in 2006. The design is influenced by a type of dagger or sword used for example in the southern Philippines or Indonesia called kris or keris (see e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kris here] for more information about krisses in general). In 2008 the C104 was discontinued.

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C104 Kris appeared in the 2006 and 2007 Spyderco product catalogs ([http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/ older], [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/download.php newer]).

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

"''If you consider it, every civilization both ancient and modern has historically developed its own variety of cutlery that is representative of its culture, ethnicity and cutting requirements at the time. Spyderco unveiled its first ethnic inspired knife with a Shabaria folder, reminiscent of classic Middle Eastern cutlery. Next up, a Japanese Tanto then a Chinese Folder. In 2003 we released a Persian knife followed by an Indonesian Karambit blade. The latest installment Spyderco’s Ethnic Knife Series is a Kris folder designed by custom knifemaker Ed Schempp.''

''Kris blades come in several diverse profiles but traditionally incorporate some form of a wave pattern in the blade. Historically they represented a Moro (Philippine) man’s societal standing, provided talismanic benefits and were utilized for defense. The C105 Kris’ curvy blade fundamentally becomes a cutting edge with oversized serrations, transforming its cutting properties.

C83 Ed Schempp Persian Folder

2009-02-02T20:05:57Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C83 Persian by Ed Schempp was introduced in late 2003. It was discontinued in 2006, the same time a smaller version, the [[C105 Ed Schempp Persian 75mm]] was introduced.

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C83 Persian appeared in the [http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/spyderco2004.pdf 2004] and [http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/spyderco2005.pdf 2005] Spyderco product catalogs.

==History, mentionings etc. from the forums==

* Introductory [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9777 notes] by Ed Schempp.

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

"''Custom knifemakers are way more than just steel junkies. Many are great artists and deep thinking intellectuals with their own specialties and talents. They continue to bring spice, variety and new ideas to the knife world. Custom maker Ed Schempp is a wheat farmer who while driving his tractor through his fields has time to think. He thinks about knives and everything surrounding them: steel, designs, heat treat, metallurgy properties, and he also thinks wheat, but only because he has to. His signature symbol, wheat sheaves are found on all his knives. He recently collaborated with Spyderco in a design called the Persian Folder -- a well thought out mixture of classic Western meets the exotic East.''"

"''The shapely Persian blade is traditionally found in fixed blade form but Ed incorporates this Eastern influence into a folding knife. Made of VG-10, the hollow-ground blade is deep-bellied, ending in an upswept tip with a curvy spot on the spine where your thumb rests. The blade's curves flow through into the handle, which is black Micarta topped with polished steel bolsters. Not only do the curves add visual appeal, they create a finger choil and a crook in front of the index finger then end in a tail, for a myriad of grip positions. A custom designed steel pocket clip positions the knife so it carries right-handed, tip-up. Balance combined with top-notch fit and finish mark this model an Ed Schempp design and a true Spyderco.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C83 Persian by Ed Schempp in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=36 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

C94 UK Penknife (DK Penknife)

2009-02-02T19:45:12Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C94 UK Penknife was introduced in late 2004. For Denmark, a modified variant with a shorter blade and a non-functional opening hole, the C94 DK Penknife, was introduced in 2005.

Link to a review by Mr. Blonde [http://www.spydercollector.nl/index1.php?pagina=&id=183&ex=review#article here]

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C94 UK Penknife first appeared in the [http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/spyderco2006insert.pdf 2006 Mid-Year Spyderco Catalog Supplement].

It then appeared in all annual Spyderco product catalogs since 2007 ([http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/ older], [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/download.php newer]).

==Designer==

[[Sal Glesser]] and Spyderco, supported by "UK Pen-Knife design team" in design [http://www.britishblades.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1996 thread] in the britishblades.com forum.

==History, mentionings etc. from the forums==

* C94 UK Penknife design [http://www.britishblades.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1996 thread] in the britishblades.com forum (includes comments on "UK Pen-Knife design team" engraved knives)

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

"''The knife may be man’s oldest tool but today it is governed by different carry restrictions in nearly every country in the world. It seems: “if man makes it, he must legislate it”. This is particularly true regarding pocketknives in the United Kingdom where legal guidelines govern the size and function of all pocketknives carried in public. One of these parameters is that folding knives not have blades that lock open. Spyderco addressed this by developing a non-locking folder expressly for the UK called the UK Penknife.''"

"''The blade on the UK Penkife is held open by a notched-joint at the knife’s pivot. When closing the blade the notch produces roughly twenty-pounds of resistance, functionally similar to traditional slip-joint penknives. To achieve a heightened sense of control and comfort, Spyderco designers added a deep finger choil positioning the index finger on the bottom of the blade directly under the thumb. This lets you choke up nearer the cutting edge with comfort and dexterity. The handle is safety orange G-10 with a tension-wire clip that carries deeply in the pocket, tip-up and either left or right-handed. The CPMS30V laser cut blade is available PlainEdged and ground flat on both sides.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C94GPOR UK Penknife Safety Orange in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=325 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

C82 D'Allara Rescue

2009-02-02T19:40:31Z

Mr Blonde: /* C82 D'Allara Rescue */

=C82 D'Allara Rescue=

This model is named after New York City Police Officer John D'Allara. On September 11, 2001 Officer D'Allara entered Tower 2 of the World Trade Center to help the victims of the terrorist attack, he never made it out. Officer D'Allara was a life long collector and user of Spyderco Knives. In honor of Officer D'Allara's ultimate sacrifice Spyderco named their new rescue knife the D'Allara Rescue.

== Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web ==

''"One of New York's finest was an NYPD officer named John D'Allara. Officer D'Allara was a long-time Spyderco collector who owned and used nearly every model they've made. Sadly he was one of the many police officers who never came out of the World Trade Center on September 11th 2001. When Spyderco approached the release date of their new rescue knife, they thought it fitting to name it in his honor. The D'Allara Rescue brings to market a full-sized rescue knife designed with the requirements of LEOs and EMTs in mind."''

''"Like most rescue/emergency knives its rounded sheepfoot blade has no pointed tip. Evenly thick from heel to tip, the blade is hollow-ground VG-10 and comes fully serrated with a SpyderEdge. Its handle is three-dimensional and Bi-Directionally Textured on both sides. This makes for comfortable ergonomics and reduces fatigue while cutting long-term. Tucked inside the handle are rigid dual steel liners and a Ball Bearing Lock. The Ball Bearing Lock has a heavy-duty level strength rating. This means that the lock holds more weight per inch of blade than normal use knives. Comforting peace-of-mind when your knife could make the difference at an accident scene or on duty. Both the lock and the tension wire clip are ambidextrous. Pocket clip carries tip-up."''<ref name="current catalog">The C82 D'Allara in [http://spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=35]</ref>

C78 Native III

2009-02-01T19:57:39Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C78 Native III is a mid-sized knife with a drop point blade and an ergonomic [[FRN]] handle with a deep finger cutout that was introduced in 2003.

==Generations==

The C78 Native III is the third generation of the Natives. The other Native generations are assigned the C41 [[SKU]].

See [[C41 Native]] for more information about Native generations.

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C78 Native III appeared in all annual Spyderco product catalogs since 2004 ([http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/ older], [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/download.php newer]).

==Designer==

Spyderco

==History, mentionings from the forums etc.==

* "Native vs. Native III" [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33510 thread] on the Spyderco forums.
* Go [http://paulberetta.com/natives.htm here] for detailled Native history notes by "The Deacon" on his site.

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

C78BK:

"''As a manufacturer of ergonomic hard-working knives, Spyderco has few rivals. It's been said our R&D team "designs in the dark", meaning function and comfort outweigh prettiness any day. More than anything, this earned Spyderco a reputation for making hardworking knives that seem to end up in your EDC rotation more than other knives.''

''Case in point is the Native III. Filling the hand with ergonomic comfort is a Bi-Directional textured handle molded of FRN. Dips and valleys on the handle's surface provide spots and textures the palm can grab onto. Separate expansion points along the underside of the handle: one behind the cutting edge, followed by another on the handle and a curve at the butt-end, work in concert keeping the hand firmly positioned and lessening cutting fatigue. The VG-10 blade tapers to a spear-point with a distinct swedge-grind that reduces weight and adds overall balance. Non-sharpened serrations along the spine keep the thumb planted securely while cutting or chopping. An ambidextrous tension wire clip is easy on a cloth pocket and positions the folder for tip-up carry.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C78BK Native III in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=61 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

==Variations==

The C78 Native III is made in Seki-City, Japan and has a
* [[Back Lock]] locking mechanism
* drop point blade shape
* 50/50 choil
* large finger cutout in the handle behind the choil
* wire clip for left and right hand carry, tip-up

C64 Meerkat

2009-02-01T19:46:59Z

Mr Blonde: /* Pictures */

The C64 Meerkat was introduced in 2001 and the first Spyderco model featuring a Phantom Lock locking mechanism and one of the first Spyderco models with a wire clip (the [[C35 Q]] being the first one).

It is a direct descendant of the [[C61 Pegasus]]/[[C62 Navigator]] and can also be viewed as an indirect descendant of the [[C09 CoPilot]].

==Appearance in catalogs==

The C64 Meerkat appeared in the following catalogs ([http://www.spydie.nl/catalogs/ older], [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/download.php newer]):
* C64JBK: 2002-2004 Spyderco Products catalogs
* C64BK2: 2002-2003 Spyderco Products catalogs

==Designer==

Spyderco

==History, mentionings from the forums etc.==

* History [http://www.spyderco.com/forums/showpost.php?p=39730&postcount=4 note] by Sal about US production of the Meerkat on the Spyderco forums.

==Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web==

C64JBK:

"''We categorize the user friendly Meerkat as one of our "Little Big Guy Knives". To qualify for that distinction you need be a small folder that cuts and feels like a larger folder. The Meerkat accomplishes this by having a 1-5/8 inch blade and small but ergonomically adept handle.''

''Set inside the handle is a Phantom Lock that has no visible unlocking mechanism. To unlock: Settle your thumb on the divot located on the end of the folder (over the bug). Push forward, moving the handle scale downward/forward a couple millimeters releasing the blade, easily done with one-hand. Along the underside of the handle a succession of angles form placement points for the hand and channel ergonomic grip into control over the cutting edge. Steel liners inside the FRN boost the lock's strength and a double as a plate for securing screws attaching the tip-down tension-wire clip. Shaped in a modified leaf pattern, the blade is hollow-ground AUS-6 with a spine cusp for thumb traction.''"<ref name="current catalog">The C64JBK Meerkat in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=23 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>

See also:
C64BK2<ref name="current catalog2">The C64BK2 Meerkat in [http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=116 Spyderco's online catalog]</ref>.

==Variations==

The [[440C]] blade variation is made in Golden, U.S.A. All other C64 Meerkats
are made in Seki-City, Japan.

The C64 Meerkat is Spyderco's first model with a
* Phatom Lock locking mechanism
* wire clip for right and left hand carry, tip-down
