All you kiwi fans or spyderco historians, just curious as to when the all Stainless Steel Kiwi was first introduced? I just picked one up not to long ago and have seen that they are fairly rare. Anyone know when this knife dates back to?

thanks a bunch!
 
The C75P2 first appeared in the 2004 catalog, and I believe production actually started sometime in mid 2003. They were produced for three years. If yours has a box, you can determine when it was made.

Thanks a bunch Paul!
lol I always get the feeling you are going to be the one to help me with these sorts of questions, always appreciated!

Mine does have a box and has printed C75P2, where do I look on the sticker to determine the date? It is one of the older boxes that are grey and have webs all over.
Thank you!

it will be on the sticker on the bottom that has the model name
it will be two letters. and they correspond to numbers
example my t mag says GG G=7th letter in the alphabet thus a knife with date code GG was made in 07/07, july 2007. :D
