What do you think of it? Other than it's no good for spreading peanut butter, I like it. I'm considering buying one.

Awesome knife! Just one of the best just for looks alone. You always get a "cool knife" or something similar when you use it. Good steel, good grip. A little pricey but... the addiction tells me how much to spend.

It is very light for a 3.5 inch blade. It is a larger blade than I really use, so mostly I carry it only when I want to show it off for the cool factor.
 
I like the knife for its unique design. Although it is very light, I am reluctant to carry it since it would be quite a task to clean if I had to actually use it (cutting sandwiches, pizza, tough mystery meat, fruits, etc.). As such, and the fact that I'm a lazy person, I'm honestly reporting that the knife is a museum piece for my collection. Oh, btw, mine is a plain-edged version and I love it notwithstanding the above.
 
After reading this thread about a Spyderco with an "awesome, unique design" that I was unfamiliar with, I tried to find some information on it.

I searched around the net a bit and could not find any pictures.

I have seen picture of a Spyderco knife that has the blade and handle cut out to look like a spider sitting on a web, but I don't know anything about it. I am guessing this is the "R", but I'm not sure.

Can anybody provide information or links to information on this knife?
 
fish bulb - go th this link and ithere is a picture of the Spyderco "R" towards the bottom. It has a similar look the the knife you described (it's called the "Q".) rr

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...............

Oops, I guess that I haven't looked at my "R" for such a long time. I have a SpyderEdge (serrated) version--not a plain-edge. Anyway, I probably would only carry it in situations where I know I won't need to use it except for showing off (e.g., parties).

Seriously, if you're only going to be cutting paper, cardboard, string, etc. (no messy, gooey stuff) the "R" should serve you well in that capacity. In a few years you'll probably see people posting here regreting about the chance they had to buy an "R" but let the opportunity slip by.
