I think I've got it......Pink fever

[SpyderNut]

OK, here's the story: I've been reading through the forum and I have heard a tremendus amount of discussion about the "Pink Cricket". I must admit that I am smitten by the sheer sound of this knife.

I know that these babys are rare, but if anybody can give me a little info on any place where I might be able to get one, I would be grateful.

Thanks!

SpyderNut,

Uh-oh... *looks worried* You know that part of the illness just indicates that the progression is much faster than expected?

Good luck finding the Pink Lady. Your signature gets better, you know? <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Kahz

I am not young enough to know everything...

[mschwoeb]

If he keeps in a natural progression with his signature, then it will soon say when in doubt buy every one made. LOL

[SpyderNut]

Kahz,
Is it that advanced already? Ooohh noooo!
*gasp* My vision's blurred.....wait! I see something.....crickets......a lot of them......pink ones.......*choke*....I might not make it.......gotta have one....gotta have one......
I won't sleep 'till I get it!


You like my signature? I guess it sums up my weakness when it comes to buying things......sharp things......aaahhhhh

[Kahz]

SpyderNut,

Yes, I can now see that you are getting sillier and sillier, which just means that the illness is permanent. LOL! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Pink dreams! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Kahz

My signature has been shadowed by SpyderNut's signature...

[SpyderNut]

*weeping uncontrollably* *wipes tears*

You mean there is no cure for this? O what a cruel thing this torment is.....

I will no doubt cry myself to sleep tonight. hehe


Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, heck, buy as much as you can.&quot;

[mschwoeb]

just posting something so I can have my cool signature come up.

Where does all my money go? Spyderco

[Lsaulog]

Whew,

I'm glad I'm not the ONLY one with this incurable disease!

SpyderNut, both Kahz and I posted a Wanted ad on BF. I received e-mail soon after. You may also want to check with some of the usual suspects online. They may be able to track one down for you. Every once in a blue moon, one will pop up on eBay.

[Kahz]

mschwoeb,

Are you aware that posting to this forum also becomes an illness? It starts slowly, with a faint addiction, and little by little it will begin to consume hours of your day until you can no longer disconnect from the Internet w/o feeling despair and signs of cerebral malfunction. The only word that will come out of your mouth will be &quot;Spyderco, Spyderco...&quot; (pretty much like the people in _The Mummy_ when they chanted &quot;Imhotep, Imhotep&quot<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

BEWARE!

Kahz

Spyderco, Spyderco...

[Lsaulog]

Kahz,

Been there, done that! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

I think that may be part of the reason why I'm an insomniac!

"Hope for the best. Be prepared for the worst. You'll never be disappointed."

[Kahz]

Spyderco, Spyderco...

[SpyderNut]

Thank you for the heads up on that one, Lsaulog. I'm sure glad for something to go with, I thought I was going crazy! [Maybe I already am....]
BTW Kahz, your right about the 'Imotep' chant thing and how this forum can be addicting. I have spent who-knows how long on this thing today, and I have in fact lost track of the time.....OH Dang! Speaking of which, I gonna be late for my class!

C-Ya!

Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, buy it.&quot;

[RYAN]

Pink crickets AGAIN?! The internet will be your best friend in this quest. Start by looking up dealers in your area on this forum first. Go from there. Good luck! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

[rico]

SpyseNut - Go to bladeforums.com and post in the knives wanted section. I have asked for cf - walkers, dragonflys and crickets and got several emailsw/ product. rr

[Clay Kesting]

I'm afraid the pink Spydie virus has mutated into different forms. I seem to have a bad dose of the blue version. I have a blue Centofante and a blue Chinese Folder on the way to join my blue G10 Native, blue Navigator and my wife's blue Ladybug. Can a blue Delica be far behind? Then there's the teal Dyad Jr which looks pretty blue in the pictures. Looks like it's going to be a &quot;blue&quot; Christmas <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>.

&quot;The trouble is that you think you have time.&quot;

I'll be grtting my pink cricket this thursday can't wait.My pay check this week is going to be BIG 7 hrs over time,24 hrs sick pay and safty bonus.I will get to finish all my xmas shopping and put the CF Dragonfly in layaway to keep anybody from stealing it before I can get it.

Jeff

[rico]

S/N - If you get any extra offers that you want to pass on let me know. I could use an extra Pinky. rr

[SpyderNut]

I'll second Rico on that. If you know where a lonesome and unhappy pinky is, just give the word, bro. I'll adopt it in a flash!

Now I got homework.........agh!



Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, buy five.&quot;

[Gary]

A PINKO tread... gotta love it!

PS: I got a pink Delica from John Jensen... real nice.

Way to go, J Smith, on the Pink Cricket!

I don't know what is wrong with me: I never cared about those things before. Not to mention that pink is not my favorite color, either. Anyway, now I want one.
Was there any more of those Crickets at the place where you got yours?

Just curious.


Spydernut

&quot;I used to own a Benchmade, but that was before I had a real job.&quot; :-)

[Kahz]

Just a small reminder of why everyone should love pink...

[SpyderNut]

*Laughter*

Amen!

Spyder nut I just saw one in the display case but i will ask about another.Also that spyderco display case has a broken lock I am going to see if I can get it.

Jeff

[SpyderNut]

J Smith! You are a lifesaver!! Hey, I will be willing to chuck out whatever $$$ to get that little booger. As far as the lock is concerned, if you get caught, I will be in court to back you up!! hehe

I'll be here waiting......

[SpyderNut]

While we're on the Pink subject, can anyone tell me where I could aquire a pink Delica?
I remember seeing one not too long ago, but I can't seem to place the site where I saw it.
Thanks!


Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, buy 'till their gone.&quot;

[J Smith]

I did not mean get the knife.I am going to try to talk them out of the display case.Its a security risk to them,the way the store is set up someone could steel out of it with out much problem.

Jeff

[SpyderNut]

Oh, I see. Yup, a faulty display case is not good. I missunderstood you, bro. BTW, is that Pinky still available?? I would really like to get one, if it's still there. :-)
Also, any word on a Pink Delica?

Thank you!


Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, buy one/Repeat.&quot;

Pink Delica is on it's way!

Boy, this is fun!

Wish I had a Pink cricket, though.....

Not that I'm gloating, or anything, but... <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

here's a little something to keep the interest in pink going:



"Hope for the best. Be prepared for the worst. You'll never be disappointed."

[SpyderNut]

Thanks a lot, Lsaulog......
You made me drool all over my keyboard!

Your pix has caused me to continue my search with renewed effort. Time will tell...


Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, buy it.&quot;

[J Smith]

OK you talked me into it send me a MO for 150.00 and I&quot;ll send you my pink cricket.

Jeff

[SpyderNut]

Hmmmmmm, That's a VERY tempting prospect....
I wonder if I could borrow a few bucks from my brother........

Spydernut

&quot;When in doubt, BUY it.&quot;
