question: lil temp tp plaine edge & black lum folding tanto

[mafeya]

hey guys, there is a shop selling those two knives and I was wondering if it was worth it to get? are those rare collectibles now?

(ps. the lil temp tp was going for nearly $200+ forgot to check the lum tanto)

There are several leaf blade lil temps for sale on ebay for about $125. $200 seems a little bit too much for me.

I think the collectability depends on which particular model you are talking about. As far as I know, spyderco made a bounch of refinements on this model and there are several variants produced in different numbers. Some lil't collectors on this forum may give you a better idea on how rare a particular variant is. For me, I only know that the trailing point blades are quite rare since spyderco stopped its production pretty early.

I would agree with what "Ireed" said about the Lil T. But if you can get the Lum Tanto for around $200 that wouldn't be a bad deal. Because I have seen 2 of them break the $300 mark on Ebay and it hasn't been that long.

Really??!! That's shocking!! Are they titanium? Cause I think there were quite a number of g10 lums produced.

thanks for the input guys...the lum tanto is a black one, i dont think its titanium or is it?

I only remember Ti Lum tantos going for $300+, the black ones go for about $150 or so...in fact the last black lum tanto went for about $130.
