Lapel Pins
I was hoping the knowledge base here could assist me. I am trying to gather the date of release on the below lapel pins. I considered contacting Empire pins, but it may be a big ask considering I'm not even a customer. I've included a photo of my current collection that I'm not far off completing. I haven't even seen a photo of a Centofante or a Black Pacific, so if anyone has one I'd love to see it.

^ Very nice! I never realized they made so many!
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

Re: Lapel Pins
Thank you. I really like that these represent the new release knife. If they were easy for me to get they would be on my hat and many other things.

Neat.
Didnt know this much Spyderco lapel pin variation even existed.
There is even a Euroedge in there.

Re: Lapel Pins
OP, do you have all these knives as well? Cause I need to see the SpydieWrench
The first time I saw a Spyderco was the early 90s at a knife shop in a mall. I can still see the SpydieHoles through that glass display cabinet. My parents wouldn't buy any of them for me... so now I buy them all. :spyder:
Re: Lapel Pins
That's a really nice pin collection. I got a szabo hawk pin with a purchase once. Don't really remember from what or who.

Re: Lapel Pins
None of them have moving parts. That would make them expensive to manufacture. I agree they are very cool...BrianMcCord wrote: ↑Fri Mar 30, 2018 8:21 amDo any of them have moving parts? This is the coolest thing...

Re: Lapel Pins
Pins don't come up for sale or trade very often. New models do for a while. I've been hunting the Manix, Centofante and a Black Pacific Salt for a long time now. It was hard for me to even find pictures of them when I started collecting these.koenigsegg wrote: ↑Fri Mar 30, 2018 12:44 amGreat collection! I almost bought the hawk and respect the other day.

Good luck on your search.

Re: Lapel Pins
Cool! Anyone have any idea how many pins were made? Is there one for every model? Anyone have them all?

Re: Lapel Pins
I havent seen photos of them but I understand there was a Centofante and a Black Pacific Salt which I dont have. There is also a Manix which I have seen but dont have. That is all the ones available to non Spyderco employees as far as I'm aware.gundamaniac wrote: ↑Mon Apr 02, 2018 4:27 pmCool! Anyone have any idea how many pins were made?

Re: Lapel Pins
Very nice collection!!! :cool: I wish I had that many. I believe this is what you are looking for:
I honestly don't recall where I picked these up. Might have been at one of the old factory stores in the Golden area, back before they shared space with the factory site. Here's the three I have:

Re: Lapel Pins
Thank you Mr Blonde. At least I know what I am still hunting for. These don't appear in catalogues and rarely in photos as a collection or even as a collectable. I appreciate the effort.SpyderPhreak wrote: ↑Tue Apr 03, 2018 10:25 pmVery nice collection!!! :cool: I wish I had that many. I believe this is what you are looking for:
