Shoulda been picked. Thats an awesome shot!

It is a good shot, but the submissions for that are amazing every year. Very difficult to get selected. I also post on their forum (same UN) and have a decent collection of Spydercos myself.

Found this article with Geoff Rowley. He's a pro skater and knife maker, so I think some of you might find his story interesting.

Just added a new Spyderco to my daily carry. I love wharncliffe blades.

The Yojimbo 2 is a great-looking knife! I've been back-and-forth on getting it a few of times, but always ended up going with something else.
Spyderco's compression lock is my favourite knife locking mechanism. The PM2 is my duty carry knife, and I love it.

The yojimbo is a great design, highly recommend. It’s got different egos than most other knives but it feels great in hand.

Speaking of Spydie, here's my Southard with custom desert ironwood in replacement of the stock G-10 scales.

@EJS , my buddy has a high-carbon steel Chinese cleaver in that shape and it takes an extraordinary amount of abuse without losing a scary-keen edge after many years of frequent abuse. It was less than $20 and is a great tool.
I would disagree that it's a specialized shape, these can be used as chef's knives because they are very flexible. The width of the blade makes it safer for chopping vegetables, and you can smash garlic or ginger (and more of it) with the flat more easily and safely too, then chop it for a quick mince. I would be hesitant to use a nice one as a scraper, but the cheap ones serve that role well too, so you can dice an onion and then quickly clear it off your cutting board. They are actually designed to work on vegetables, but you can break down a chicken very quickly with them.
Obviously not ideal for doing fine knife work, but an excellent multi-purpose tool IMO, and one that is lacking from our collection at the moment.
