Have there been any other than the Dyad?

An audience member at my "experimental participatory theater group" overheard me talking knives with one of the actresses, and just _had_ to show me his EDC. It was a Taiwanese POS, but I try really hard to be polite about these things.

The conversation goes on, and he tells me that at home he has a two-bladed knife, with [at least] one hawkbill blade. Then he tells me it's a Spyderco. That left me a bit nonplussed, I gotta admit. I asked three times to confirm it was _really_ a Spydie, and he seemed awfully sure.

The only two-bladed hawkbill Spydie I've ever heard of was that custom double-Civvie on BF a while back, and I sincerely doubt he's got it. :D

Now, most likely this guy's either misremembering his Dyad, or it's a no-name knife that _looks_ a bit like a Spydie (or of course that he's lying, but I'd prefer not to jump to that conclusion).

The guy's a semi-regular at the show, and I asked him to bring the knife with him next time, and hopefully he will. In the mean time, do any of y'all know what he could've been talking about?

Discuss! ;)
 
G-C, yes, I have seen a two-bladed Spyderco like you described (with one blade being a hawkbill). Alas, but it was in my dreams. ;)

I suggested such a knife on the Spyderco.com forum awhile back; however, the idea went over like a lead balloon (it didn't fly). Understandably, established companies are unable to develop every knife design that is imagined by end line users (elu's).

It does sound kinda neat, dunnit? :D

The next show's Saturday night. _If_ he comes back, and _if_ he's got the knife, then I'll be there with my digicam.

I'm honestly not expecting much, but the fantasy-scenarios are fun in the mean time ;)
 
G-C: I too highly doubt its existence, unless he did throw a lot of cash for that double civvie.
 
If you want to see a double bladed Spyderco, with one hawkbill, check this:Double Kerambit

But I have very seriously doubts that gentleman you are talking about really has one of those. ;)
 
I don´t remember who made these....but this is some cool stuff!
