Anyone know the exact model of this??
on: July 22, 2013, 12:01:41 AM
Hi everyone,

Well, I'm not normally into slippies but just seen this on amazon :-

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wings-SLIPIT-Handle-Dual-Blades/dp/B0026JJ1MG/ref=sr_1_166?ie=UTF8&qid=1374443648&sr=8-166&keywords=spyderco

WOW  :drool: :drool: and UK legal too!!  :cheers:   :ahhh :ahhh

Unfortunately the description then states that the item is very similar to the one shown  :facepalm:
Sorry amazon, but I want that one in the picture.

Can anyone shed any light on what the model number is and where I could get one.

Anyone??
I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.

I think I've solved it   :think:

It looks to be called the Byrd Wings BY21G - but doesn't seem to be available here in the UK.

Anyone know what the quality's like??

It's a Spyderco Byrd so it won't be bad. ;) Though the £53.56 Amazon is asking for it seems way too much. I've seen it for a lot less. I think someone from the UK crowd here has one.

I found a UK site that has them listed for £34.50 but says it will be in stock in two weeks. :shrug: Might be good if you tried contacting them and checking. :think:

Hennies currently only has the liner lock version in stock too.

Byrd Wings Slipit, very good knife.  50ft-Trad and Farmmnan both own them and I know they rate them a lot.  Be careful when shopping around though, there is also a locking version out there so make sure you are looking at the Slipit  (what Spyderco call their non-locking knives).  Another option is the Byrd Tern, another OHO non-locking knife but with just one blade. 
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.
