I just went out and picked up one of the zytel handled Spyderco Jesters. Basically, it's about the same size as the Ladybug but it seems to fit the hand alot better. I think that this is due to the larger width of the handle and that it seems just a bit more chunky than its brother. The blade has lots of belly for its size and seems like it would be able to tackle everyday activities with ease. The lanyard hole on the Jester as well as the Spyder hole are alot larger than the Ladybug and allow for a larger key ring and easier opening. I attached a Reeve style knot on mine to give my pinky something to hold onto while gripping the knife. Overall, I like this little guy. I think that it will replace the Ladybug as my mini-lockback carry.

I agree 100%. Great little knife. I have several of the pink and the burg micarta (and 2 of the black on order). I will have to see the lime ones in person before I will decide about them. All PE so far, but if i get a lime one i may get it SE.

The micarta is my favorite of the bunch so far. Just a little easier to grip IMHO and very elegant.
