I have for sale the following Spyderco knives. All are older made in Seki-City Japan models. I'm terrible at models so some will just be the description and picture. If it's just the knife there is no box.
First set of pics is the "time capsule" I'm calling it and I'd like to sell as a group. This includes the original box from Golden CO, a letter to Mac (I purchased all of these from his estate after his passing some years ago, he was a contributing writer to Blade magazine etc and a Spyderco subscription holder). The 3 knives are the C28S Dragonfly dated 5/97 on the box, C29SBK Cricket, and the LBK II Ladybug. The letter references the C29 and LBK but must have included the C41 originally. When I got it it had these 3 in the box so I'm not sure when that changed but the C28 fits the era although a smidge early. This also includes the 3 press releases for these new models, spec sheets, and a still sealed quarterly newsletter for second quarter 1998 April-June. The knife boxes have an adhesive tag with a price written from some point probably needs a hair dryer to loosen them I didn't want to damage the boxes. $500 total to you shipped/insured ($517.50 Paypal or Venmo Goods)
The group of pictures top left down the list are as follows:
1. G10 grip ATS-55 6.75" OAL looks excellent smidge of shiny on pocket clip and just a tiny spot of discoloration middle of blade that looks like it would Flitz off - $80 (82.80 goods)
2. G10 grip ATS-55 blade POLICE model ~9.5" OAL tiny bit of shiny on pocket clip, blade looks like it cut some tape as there's some sticky residue that would clean right off - $125 ($129.38 Goods) (SOLD funds received)
3. All stainless ATS-34 same size as Police ~9.5" OAL looks unused uncarried - $100 ($103.50 Goods) (Sold funds received)
4. D'holder "TOAD" Japan ~4" OAL $125 ($129.38 Goods)
5. Endura Clipit G2 Stainless ~ 8 3/8" OAL doesn't look carried has a little residue on the blade just needs cleaned - $100 ($103.50 goods)
6. Calypso Jr. Black Micarta (I guess that's what the grips are) AUS-8 black polished appears as new - $100 ($103.50 goods)
7. Centofante VG-10 ~7.5" OAL appears as new - $125 ($129.38 goods) (Sold funds received)
8. AUS-8 Stainless ~6.75" OAL blade appears new I don't think carried - $100.00 ($103.50 goods)
9. Spyderco value brand Byrd Meadowlark BY04PS appears NIB - $65 ($67.30 goods)
10. C65BLP Bob Lum New in Box VG-10 Blue handle - $200 ($207.00 goods) - I would sell a new no box Bob Lum Tantal Spyderco fixed blade to purchaser for $350 additional (Sold funds received)
Not enough room here for more pictures so if you need something specific just send a PM.
Listed prices will include shipping insured. I'll accept most any pay service (PayPal FF, Venmo gift, Apple Cash) if you prefer the goods option that total is listed also. Payment via mail with certified funds or checks held to clear is ok too. Message me with questions. With all my listings I'm always open to offers if you have a compelling argument such as current market references if I'm out of line and I love to discount for multiple purchases to same buyer.
Thanks
Alan
