Yesterday my brother's Spyderco collection was stolen. Someone broke into his house and pretty well cleaned out his knife collection. He lives in St Croix in the US Virgin Islands, so if any Spyderco knives show up on ebay or any other sites being sold from St Croix, they will be his. They also stole a knife I made for him. It has Jade green G11 scales and is stamped M.Griffin on the tang. Crazy thing is that for some reason, they left a blue Lum Chinese Folder that was with the rest of them. My brother has worked on this collection for years and he is pretty bummed. I hate thieves as do we all so lets try to get these suckers. If anyone sees any of these knives, please PM me here or email me at griffinknives (at) gmail (dot) com

Sorry to hear about this. Same thing happened to me about 12 years ago. The blue Lum being left seems to me that it was probably some one he knows or has talked to about his collection. Hope they catch the thief and he gets his stuff back.
 
Man that sucks, I hope you guys can track down the thief and get the collection back.
 
Sorry to hear about that. Quite a collection. We'll keep our eyes open.

There seems to be more and more of this going around. Some protection might be in order?

I'm very sorry to be reading this. Some people are just scumbags. I truly hope they get caught and are punished to the maximum. I'll let some of my ebay pals to look at this thread too. Best of luck.
Check Craigslist and local pawnshops as well.
 
Yeah, I hope he gets them back, but I know the chances are slim. He thinks it was either kids or a crackhead. Either way they are probably being sold locally and cheap. If they do some online research, the draw of making some real money on ebay may be more than they can resist, who knows? He is going to spread the word on the island and keep his eye out for any clips with a spyder on it. I wouldn't want to be the guy walking around with his knife and have him see it. He is pissed as many of the knives are pretty much irreplaceable and took years to put together. Crooks suck.
Thanks for keeping your eyes peeled.
