Important information: Editing of this article is needed!!! |
In 1990 Spyderco started with the Bob Terzuola the Collaboration models. Besides this the C15 was the first Clipit with Linerlock (maybe even the first production knife with ball bearing detent), clip position for tip up/down and is said to be Spyderco's first domestic US production. Blade is a modified drop-point with an obtuse angle of 70°. Handle color is black, with Lanyard hole. The old Standard clip with three screws is used. It is said, that the first 1000 pieces had the insignias chemically etched on either side of the blade, thereafter all blades were engraved.

Information from the Spyderco product guide
From the 1993 product guide:
"Robert Terzuola has gained the respect of his peers for his efficient high strenght designs that reflect a subtle military flavor. Our American-made CLIPIT showcases his 15 plus year experience as a master designer and knife maker. The modified drop-point blade is made of ATS-34 steel and pivots between high-lubricity nylon bushings to ensure glassy smooth action. Scales are secured with high-tensile allen screw. The clothing clip may be mounted to carry the knife tip up or tip down, and a Linerlock secures the blade in an open or closed position."[1]
