The Spyderco was their one try and with an advertised world's strongest lock at going against Cold Steel and their Triad lock on a huge folder, where Cold Steel promptly tested them side by side with spine impact and raw weight and destroyed the Spyderco on video, which likely helped kill the project. The Spyderco was named Tatanka/buffalo likely inspired by watching Dances With Wolves too many times.PS- the "weakness" of Spyderco has always been how little meat around hinge pin and shallow lock engagement, but the Tantanka is nearly 3/16ths" thick, so pretty academic past VG10 run harder not as tough as the AUS8 run softer. The Tantanka still a VERY strong folder.</blockquote>
