History, mentionings etc. from the forums
Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web
"Aerodynamically bumble bees shouldn't be able to fly. Too bad someone forgot to tell the bees that.
This knife defies both nature and expectation that something this small performs such a grand maneuver. Like bumblebees, Spyderco Bugs and HoneyBees perform the unexpected. Our smallest folders, they pack a stinging cutting clout in micro-sized SLIPITs.
Resistance pressure at the knife's pivot area holds the blade open and extended when cutting. Handles are flat with a small stainless surface ready for you to engrave, embellish or customize as jewelry or a gift item. Handle lanyard-hole accommodates a necklace-chain or keychain."
