==Information from The Spyderco Story book==

'''2003 Mini Probe'''

''A scaled-down model of the SCUBA Probe, called the Mini-Probe (model 2003), appeared in 1990. Critical dimensions were based on California’s abalone regulations, which govern the size and shape of tools used to pry the abalone loos from the seabed.''

''All SCUBA Probes have been discontinued and the remaining stock sold off. It would appear that brightly colored, less sophisticated knives strapped to the leg had more appeat to divers than this more practical tool.''<ref>The 2002 Dive Probe described in the book 'The Spyderco Story - the new shape of sharp', by Kenneth T. Delavigne (2000), page 38.</ref>

==Variations==

The 2003 Mini Probe is made in Japan and features:
* A [[Sheepsfoot Blade]]
* A line cutter incorporated in the spine of the blade.
* A handle longer than the blade that incorporated a drying vent and a prying tip.
