I have for your consideration some rare and long discounted Spydercos that don’t come up often. Both come with original boxes and have never been carried or cut anything. Both were manufactured in Seki Japan. 1. Spyderco C29P clipit “Cricket”right hand plain edge. it is serial number 34 so it would have been as far as I know from the first run. The original white box is also marked 34. This one has a few very light handling marks but overall is in excellent condition. Price is $150 obo 5E519561-A68E-4F8F-83B0-98B980B54FC6.jpeg3630FC1E-A0A1-4C8E-A88C-F8854105A719.jpeg6A9C1291-D9A8-4AE8-B238-67C54329CABA.jpeg 2. Spyderco C98F. Poliwog. This is the all metal variation which is harder to find. Here is the description from the Spyderco website:

A pollywog represents metamorphosis in the animal kingdom, adapting and changing its form to survive in its environment. The same principle applies here. The Spyderco Poliwog CLIPIT® thrives in a small-knife-friendly environment while keeping the features necessary to excel in a harsh, heavy cutting and performance setting. Its distinctive opened-ended Ball Bearing Lock™ exposes the knife's inner workings for easy cleaning and rates as one of Spyderco's highest strength locking mechanisms. Pulling back on the ball unlocks the blade ambidextrously from either side of the knife.

The hand settles on the curved handle positioning the index finger into a choil that optimizes control and generates less fatigue and pressure on the hand during cutting. Made from VG-10, the blade has a hollow-ground edge with a weight reducing swedge-grind extending mid-spine to the tip. It is available in PlainEdge. Its ambidextrous wire-tension pocket clip sets the Poliwog tip-up in the pocket.

First I’ll take it followed by prompt pm and payment gets it, but I do reserve the right to sell to whoever I choose. I only accept PayPal or postal money orders. I usually ship next business day. Thank you for looking.
 
Hi Brandon - hope this message finds you well.

I know this is an older post, but did you ever sell that Poliwog? If not, I would be very interested.

Thank you for your time.
