Hi all, great photos and collections! Mr.blond dont mess around! Anyone have a complete list of all the ladybugs made over the years? It Was my first spyderco and it got me hooked. Anyone have pictures of there ladybug collections? Also...I know the spyder 1s had plastic clips (To me the best), spyder 3s went to the metal clip and spider 4s are current production but what were spyder 2s? :spyder: Take care & stay stitch free!

I assume you mean the Delica. Delica 2 have had SS (stainless steel) handles with old standard metal clip.

Thank you Peter & amen! No ladybug photo collections. Is it because its called a LADYbug :confused: . Not manly enough? :confused: Such a practical little knife in so many colors. Its ok say its your wifes ladybug collection. I think we need to come up with a new name for the Ladybug. A more manly name. Any ideas? We need to look up small spider names and find a cool one. Take care... :spyder: John.

Hi BHDknifer,

The original LBK was sold to the Military as a "Little Big Knife" because they didn't care for the Ladybug name.

We introduced a variant called the "Jester", but eventually the Ladybug took over, assumed the handle of the Jester and a modified Ladybug blade, but kept the Ladybug name. It's more well known.

On the contrary. I feel that "Ladybug" is this perfect name for this tiny beast of a knife. If nothing else, it belies its nature to people who aren't comfortable with knives (who are the people we would probably be using it around, anyway) :p .

I loved this knife even more when I found out the ladybug was the mini Delica...at least is is for the II...and I love the Delica II... :D
