Description: The Ladybug is perhaps the model with the most variations available, if you don’t include the many different special edition Spyderco Q knives available. The Ladybug was made since 1990, and has since undergone many changes and a third generation is the current gen of this model. The major changes from Gen 1 to Gen 2 is that Generation 2 models have a very obvious sheepsfoot blade unique to Generation 2 only and are in fact relatively rare knives due to low production during that period. Generation 3 Ladybugs have been upgraded with boye dents and VG-10 steel being the most notable.
