Discontinued Golden-made Spyderco owners--show your knives!

Well, this was an unexpected one. I was browsing Ebay, and found an auction for a "Gin-1 Spyderco lock back w/spyder teeth." The fuzzy pictures were clearly of a Blackhawk. I set up a Gixen automatic bid, and a few days later I was the proud owner of a well-used but ok Blackhawk.


 
There is a Mini Manix on the marketplace here. I'm tempted to pick it up, but really don't have the spare cash right now. I've always liked them.

Just came today, still can't believe I own one of these :D
 
Dude....Apophis.....She's.....stunning. If you don't mind me asking, how much did she run you?

I'm wary of the rules here, not sure if I can talk prices. I found it by accident at an online dealer while looking for something else. It was 20% under msrp!?!
 
Thanks RamZar. Maybe I was being too cautious.

The "relative bargain" is what pushed me over the edge on this. Figured that finding one of these below msrp was never going to happen again...
 
I finally took some pics of all of the Goldens together. I need about 2 dozen more to be able to say that I own every model ever made in Golden...




And yes, I know, the Manix and PM2 are in the last pic, but they are not discontinued.

Hello guys. I am new here and also new to spyderco. I am just wondering if any of you could help me to decide (buy it or not to buy it). I am located in the UK. On the website called gunstar.co.uk I have found a Spyderco manix 2 in snow camo. I tried to find it elswere for the price point but could not find in in snow camo. Do you think that the spyderco is fake?? Thank you very much for your help!

Never heard of it...:confused:

My latest find.

Nice score!
 
It really is a sickness...:eek:

First, I got my little C24 Blackhawk a companion--the C23 Renegade.





And I found this fairly rare Golden-made Meerkat...





And then this original Bob Terzoula Starmate came along...





 
Here is my Gunting that I bought directly from Spyderco in the early 2000's. I tried to never use the blade and carried it a bit but found it a bit too hefty for my needs.
Just got it back from sharpening at Spyderco. I understand this is a popular knife and that someone else would likely enjoy it much more than I would. What is the best way to sell or trade it?
