Pics to follow, says "RPM" on te blade, g-2 stainless partially serrated frnBlack in color
 
Well, if it says G-2, that eliminates anything made in this century. I'd guess Delica or Endura, but I'd need a little more info.
 
G2 is a older version of g10. G10 is 8 times better though... Just kidding I have no clue what I'm talking about...

Fairly certain G2 is Gin 2 which is a Japanese steel that was heavily used by Spyderco for a long time. CTS BD1 is I think supposed to be an american copy.
 
From wiki: G2, aka GIN-1. (銀紙1号)A Hitachi-made low cost stainless steel comparable to, but softer than, AUS-8. Generally hardened in the mid to high Rc 50s. A tough, corrosion-resistant steel.
 
Actually, G-2 was a mark used for Gingami-1 steel for a couple of years. The story as I remember it was the maker in Seki already had a contract with someone else to produce knives with the same steel and mark them with GIN-1 stamps, so they wouldn't use that stamp for Spyderco. After the other contract ran out, they started using the GIN-1 mark on Spyderco knives. And yes, Carpenter developed CTS BD-1as an updated version of Gingami-1.
 
Ummm...

I'm sorry, but every time I see this thread title pop up it makes me laugh because it says;

"Spyderco I'd please guys"

'I'd' instead of 'ID'. Not a grammar nazi I don't really care, I mess up my typing all the time but if you add a comma to your title it says;

"Spyderco, I'd please guys"

Sal won't make you do that for one of his knives hopefully, just gotta save up your pocket change like the rest of us :D
 
chances are he's on an Android phone and didn't double check the auto correct. But, that is a pretty hilarious interpretation.

Spyderco, I'd please guys.... for a chance to get an s110v Military cf sprint run. :p

If you use the Android Swype feature you get horrible auto corrects. I see some really weird ones everyday.
 
I don't have anything constructive to add here. But this thread gave me a pretty good chuckle.

Now I'm wondering what knife I'd be willing to please guys for... On second thought, I'm going to abort that thought process.

Looks like a Pro-Hunter or Pro-Venator as it was later called. The RPM thing happened after it left the factory.
 
hmmm I wonder what the rPm was put on with. I have the opportunity to "receive" the knife but not wanting to be unfair in my offer. Thanks a ton guys.
