Which Models Are These?

[sgt1372]

I thought I'd already seen every Spyderco knife ever made but, while trolling thru EB today, I came across these 2 knives that I've ever seen before

I looked thru the entire list of models listed on SpydieWiki but didn't see anything that seemed to match.

So, does anyone know the model name & # of these knives?

Thanks!

Saw the resemblence of the Pre-diver to the Driver's Probe (w/the long ruler/probe attached) that I've seen before but couldn't find a reference to it w/o a name.

Found a pic of the Pre-Diver w/its box on the Spyerco Forum which was numbered 2001R-SER. The Diver's Probe was apparently numbered 2002-PRE based on listing for it on ACZ. There's also a mini-Probe numbered 2003. They're listed by name & $# w/pics on SpydercoSource; only by name/# on SpydieWiki by w/o any descriptive info. They're just numbered 2001, 2002 and 2003 (respectively) on SpydercoSource w/o any other designations.

See them at the bottom of the page here: http://spydercosource.com/page/8/

Couldn't "find" the Scorpius C87 in SpydieWiki because there was no pic of it. Found it w/the name on SpydercoSource but w/the wrong model # (C86 instead of C87). The Scorpius can also still be found by name on Spyderco's website. Not so the Pre-Diver or Driver's Probe.

See: https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/C87/39

Just amazing how many knives Spyderco has made over the years and how obscure some of them are.

Interestingly the pre divers pictured here are labeled “DIVER”. The earliest of the early came with the shackle. Model number 2001.

Next is the model 2002 “PROBE”. Then model 2003 mini probe.
