Just about every one, except these.
And the Ocelet proto in green G10 w/black pugs, butt that wasn't production.
And the Wayne Goddard linen micarta is referred to as green at times butt you really have to look deep to see it in mine.

Nice pics Chinook! Thanks.
That Green Q is awesome- in fact,all of those Q's in one spread is over-the-top. Now that you've jogged my memory, I do believe AG Russell has some of those colored Dyads listed.It looks kinda blue on my screen.

Chinook,
Are all of those Q's your personal knives?
By the way, have you seen the "John West's man-fighting-bear-for-the-salmon" commercial? If not, I'll send it to you (it's an .mpg). It is hilarious!
Jeff.

Sharp1...
Yes, the 'green' FRN Dyad Jr, or lightweight, did turn out a bit aqua or blue-green according to people who saw it. I don't have one myself.
Jeff...
I wish....!!! I only have 4 Qs(no pun intended) The flag, Blade, and serrated and plain bug ones. I forget whose collection those are from.

FYI-Through an obscure web search last nite, I found a previously "unknown-to-me" knive dealer in TX that has plenty of discontinued Spydercos. These include an "HK" Q knife, the PE Baby Horn, Workers (Old and new) and lots more.

Sharp 1 - call them first. Like many a webstore, their pics catalog and their actual stock vary greatly. They also list Michael Walker Carbon Fiber knives. But just try to order one.
Also, like many a webstore, order one over their website and you will soon get a call or email that says "gee, we just sold the last one right before your order". This has happened to me at least 6 times.
CYA BS!

Good Advice scolby,
I find what you advise to be true a lot of times as well. That is why I mentioned the 800# in the post. I'd call.
In fact I did call myself this AM, and this store does indeed have the Q's and Babies-and other rarities on the shelf.
Thanks

Sharp1,
Hey, thanks for the URL. I just ordered my H&K "Q". Niiice knife! Not only do I finally get a "Q" for my collection, but it's custom engraved with HK which will match my EDC! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
I asked about any CF Spydies and he didn't think he had any left. The Walkers are all gone. <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> Oh, well. One of these days, I'll get around to posting a pic of me and my Spydies.

Lsaulog,
Proof once again that in knife collecting; he who hesitates is lost-especially on-line. So glad you picked-up on that Q. 1st one I've ever found in a shopping cart. They go for very high bidding war prices on the E bay auctions. This is a fair price for such a rarity. Good going. At least we'll each have one to slobber over. RE: the HK blade pattern on these? Do you suppose the logo is like the Fire Arm manufacturer's Brand? If so, that is extra cool.

Dang spyderholic,
You folks have any colored Delicas up there in the back somewhere? I've got the Pink and blue. Need Green!
I saw some yellow handled Spydie images on a Japanease website, but had no idea what the text meant.

There is a Ladybug at my local shop that is yellow...I didn't know if it was real or not...is it? Should I buy it and sell it for 40 bucks to someone on the forum? :-D
