History, mentionings from the forums etc.
There is some disagreement as to wheter the C18 was sold through Spyderco or only through Wayne Goddard himself in this thread on the Spyderco forums. This thread also tells that the SE was indeed sold, although probably in low numbers.
Information from the Spyderco catalog on the web
C18PSWM:
"In the 1980’s Spyderco entered a collaborating arrangement on several knife designs with then, up-and-coming custom knifemaker, Wayne Goddard of Eugene, Oregon. Wayne’s custom knives were folding models and fixed blades with his signature: a drop point blade, shaped with a deep cutting belly for outdoor and everyday use. Everyone wanted them, for their high-performance steel and drop point blade shape. Today, he’s a Master Bladesmith, and cornerstone member of the American Bladesmith’s Society. He has authored several books on the art of knifemaking and is a contributing editor for a knife magazine. When the opportunity to collaborate again arose in 2008, Spyderco was on it.
The new C18PSWH has Wayne’s traditional drop-point blade but comes paired with a white Micarta handle. The blade is hollow-ground VG-10 steel available in a CombinationEdge. The handle is shaped so you can securely grip while preventing the fingers from sliding forward or backward. Ambidextrous clip." [1]
