I picked up my first spyderco today at a pawn shop (hooray!). Problem is that I can't find out if I got a good deal or not. It's an aluminum handled Salsa... With a grey handle. Can't find any information on a grey handle. Aus 8 steel, and I paid $35 for it. Did I get ripped off?

If it's in decent shape you didn't get hurt too bad. Seems I gave about $50 for one several years ago.
 
I have a few Salsa's ,I think they are underrated by most, here's my .02¢,you definitely got a good deal if it's in at least good condition.
-very light,ultra light carry
-excellent Taiwan quality,built like a tank
-compression lock,pretty unique & strong
-decent steel,easy to sharpen,nice edge retention
 
That's cheaper than I've seen them for sale elsewhere. I think it's a cool little knife.
 
If you got a box with it that's a steal. I was ecstatic when I found a salsa for less than $100!
 
I think you did good. I have one on the exchange and am getting questions with it listed for more than that.
