Can anyone enlighten me on the Spyderco Roadrunner :confused: ? I have looked, but cannot find any information on this particular model :mad: . Pictures would be GREAT! Thanks to all the guys here that know a whole lot more than me :D

Gotta say, I've never heard of this one, but if it exists, there's a good chance it will be on Ted's site: http://www.ted.tweakdsl.nl/spyderco/spyderco.html

I am definately interested as to what this knife looks like now...I'll be watching!

I think it will be purple with long legs.

It must be a knife with a horn....(some of that all gods critters have knives thingy) I guess it will go beep beep when opened...Doc :D

I think you might be referring to the G sakai bird and trout series
featured in the 2001 spyderco catalogue.There are 3 of them,
Pack Rat. Roadrunner and Fischer. Pretty neat knives I have the
smallest one that I picked up from an on-line knife shop in Alaska.

But not a "Byrd"? ;)

Believe that Grasshopper nailed it. The Roadrunner was a G. Sakai knife marketed in the US by Spyderco. It may even still be available in Japan. For that reason, I kind of doubt Spyderco would consider using the name for either a Spyderco or Byrd model.

There is a pic in the 1999 dealer catalog.

Thanks guys! I saw the name at Country Knives after one of Deacon's posts, but the picture would'nt come up. So I'm not making this one up! :) But if it's not truely a Spyderco, I wonder why they are advertising it as one?
