A couple of questions...

Is the SpyderCo Round Hole Really an eye?



Sometimes I look at a Spyderco knife and see a dinosaur if the blade is serrated and folded back to look like a mouth. Does anybody else do this?



Do you have to have a split personality to love a Dyad?



I think this may be my next knife but I don't want people looking at me like I should be comitted.

Yes, I agree, it does look like a Dinosaur eye in many models. Although in the Mouse it looks like a mouse ear, and in the Toad... well, a toad eye. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Some longer models look like snakes or alligators. I wonder, has Spyderco done any advertising with animals, apart from the one of &quot;All God's Creatures...&quot;? Such as advertising for specific models?

I've often thought they look like a birds eye and beak.

Hmmm... that too, J Smith, so we can summarize they are definitely zoomorphic. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

I am currently analyzing a Centofante... and I am still trying to decide what it is. The eye is way in the back, maybe some kind of eel or a very long beaked bird. The Rescue and its Jr. definitely look like alligators... I can imagine that eye popping up over water, searching for a prey.

The Centofante is an airplane without wings and the hole represents the window that you see on the cockpit. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

No, no, no. You are all making the mistake of looking at the knife and then seeing the hole as part of it. This way you only see the outline of the hole and not the hole itself. Instead you must focus on the hole.
Only then can you really understand the power of nothingness. Now do you see it Grasshopper.

Don't worry that the world might end tomorrow, in Australia it's tomorrow already.

Krazie,

I think you are right, it's an airplane...

But, now that I am concentrating on Clay's reply... I am begining to &quot;Understand&quot;. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
