Not for me. A regular SpyderEge ZDP-189 Ladybug however and I'll take at least two. Yeah yeah I know the SE would involve a lesser hardness and ultimately lose its advantage but hey. That or come up with one with another super steel, say S90V or M4 :) Make it available with that blue color the Endur...

Endura and more

I just got my Endura 4 so I figured that would be a cool picture to share with you Spydies even though the pic definitely doesn't do justice at all despite the good camera. Hard to say but the top one is ZDP-189 Dragonfly. http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/4826/dsc00367rd.jpg By the way before I go...

What Sprint Run would you like?

Another unrelated thread had me thinking; I'm sure there are plenty of wishes out there. I'll start: I'd love to see a Sprint Run of a ZDP-189 Ladybug in serrated edge, possibly in another color than British green racing. I love Ladybugs and I love that steel but the missing SE is what keeping me of...

I have a friend who owns the serrated Police model that was made in ATS-55 back then; I guess it's a collectible now :)



Anyway, wouldn't the Civilian fit the description??

I always loved the Ladybug, I have a few versions and never had any issues with it, from opening to ergonomics. I love ZDP-189 as well but the only thing that prevents me from getting a Ladybug in that steel is the missing serrations, shame that model isn't offered with it, I hope they get to that s...

Yes thank you, and impressive indeed.


Not only in amount but also in limited editions and discontinued products. RIP.


Feel free to post a newer pic with the missing 15% if you felt like it because that will be appreciated ;)

Mmh I disagree here. Sure black is timeless, classic and looks good on most knives, but man that yellow is hot!

I love mine (duh) and I was wondering; They say the carbide tip is replaceable but I've never seen any replacement tips or any mention of it anywhere.


Any thoughts?

+1 that quote from sal explains a lot. I own use a zdp189 endura. I think it will out perform h1 but I have yet to try it. The only thing that ever hurt the edge was a drop on a ceramic tile floor I had to send it in. Nothing else has touched it. It gets dull after a week or two of work but holds a...

ZDP-189 and serrations

I was looking to upgrade (one of) my VG-10 Ladybug for a ZDP-189 because I love my ZDP-189 Dragonfly (awesome steel) but then I wondered why the ZDP-189 Ladybug doesn't come with SpyderEdge, then realized nothing in ZDP-189 comes with it; What gives? Is it because that steel is too hard or is it an ...
