So Spyderco was named after cars Sal liked, did he buy any?

It's just that years ago I hadn't heard the sports car story but I did hear this story :



i.e., the first product from Spyderco was a spider shaped device and that was where the name came from.

That's what I had in the back of my mind.
Not sure if it was in the literature with a knife or I saw a YouTube that talked about the spider clamp but at this >>>>link it verifies what you said but does mention the Spyder clamp.

So you are right but you see where i got my apprehension.

No worries brother. As Sal stated, it was a little of both.

My fast bike back in the day was a 1984 V65 Magna. Man that thing would get up and go!

Hey Wowbagger,''

Hope I didn't offend. Didn't mean to.
