To : ALL



The knife of my youth has come back to haunt me! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> I remember my cousin ( a West Haven

cop yet ) telling the more youthful ATE to

veer away from switchblades ( I would follow

this in the years to come ; almost fanatically ) and get on this new bandwagon.

In 1981, after showing me the ad for &lt;img src=&quot;spyder.gif&quot; width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0&gt; in

Soldier of Fortune magazine &quot;..this is probably going to be the future of one handed

knives...&quot; he told me. 1983, Ft. Benning, Ga.

I cast my eyes on the &quot;worker&quot; again <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> but

the problem was my lifestyle and infestimal

Army pay <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>. Now in 2002 ( 19yrs later!) I'm

again haunted by the &quot;worker&quot; ; guess I'll just &quot;cave in&quot; and buy one! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

So many Spydies, so little money! <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

I agree with Sam, the Worker is a must for any serious <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> collector. It is, after all, where it all began. I would have bought a Commemorative version but I have an old PE Worker which I refurbished and had embellished with a &quot;chai&quot; in memory of the late James Mattis.

Well, deep in every Spydernut's heart, there's a worker that's dying to get out, so, it'll be a MUST to own one no matter what you think of it..

Its also THE <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> knife that became the flagship of Poppa Spyder and the Spydercrew for more than two decades.. Makes me feel proud with the fact that I actually own two early Workers with two-screws on its clip..

Coming from Spyderco, its a knife that is conceived out of love as it is straight from the heart! <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Update :

Received Commemorative Worker about two weeks
ago from the date of this posting ( 07/25/02)
and I'm impressed as hell! <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Would've liked it in SE better <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> but one has to see the blue velvet lined display box to REALLY appreciate this one. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> This, along with the C23GS Renegade &amp; PE Merlin/Harpy really made
my month! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Happy early birthday to me! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
