OK, I'm procrastinating from making my Saturday a productive one, so I figured I'd ask some really trivial questions I've been wondering about:
Why doesn't the Police Model have a lanyard hole? Its contemporaries do, and even the Rookie does.
Where did the name "Civilian" come from? Seems odd for a knife specifically produced for LEOs, according to the "white hats" letter. Incidentally, do Civies still come with this letter and could I get copies because neither of mine still have them? I once asked a friend why it was called a "Civilian" and he joked, "Because that's who they'll be using it on."
OK, then where did "Matriarch" come from?
For that matter, I understand how most Spydercos have names associated with a profession that inspired their design... and the Delica and Endura get funky new Honda-esque names to denote the then-new liteweight line. But why the bug names like "Cricket" and "Dragonfly" or mythical names like "Calypso" and "Pegasus." Just curious.
Alright, that's enough time-wasting trivia. Thanks for reading.
