Hi all,
For a long time I was running away from any Spyderco knife.. Don't really know why, but it wasn't appealing to me.
Now, for some reason, I really wanted a Bug, just a small keychain knife.. And after two days in my possession, this is by far my most beloved knife!
I know it is not the ultimate Tactical knife.. or even a Gentleman's folder.. But I just love it.
All I want to do now is buy more of the Slip Jointed Spydercos (GrassHopper, Ladybug, Kiwi.. Etc.).
I have to admit I wasn't aware of how amazingly the Spydercos are built.. Had to get a really small one to figure how big it is..
 
The Ladybug is not a slipjoint, but is a very nice knife. I would look at the Squeak and UKPK for a bit bigger Spyderco slip joint if your into that. I don't have a UKPK, but the Squeak is bigger than a "keychain" knife, but not very big in the folder category.

Welcome to the forum! :thumbup:
 
He said Bug not Ladybug. The Bug is a slipjoint. Also check out the Clipitools. Thats all I carry now.
 
Yes, I did wrote Ladybug ;) for some reason missed the lock-back.. Thanks for the feedback.
 
The Spyderco slipjoints fly under the radar but once one gets one, it's typical Spyderco perfection. I love my Maroon UKPK.

I'm looking forward to the Roadie personally. Had a grasshopper and it was still too small. The Jester was a much better fit, and the ManBug even better.
