Where can I find a knife made by Spyderco called the Ladybug in blue?
My boyfriend gave it to me and I lost it and I need to replace it before he freaks out, but I am having a hard time finding that model in blue. Its a folding knife that fits on your keychain and the blade is partially serrated. Any suggestions?

Bowie knives are renowned for their versatility as general purpose knives. You'll find that the blade can be used for a wide range of things, from skinning and cleaning game and fish to cleaning branches and much more. However, you will find a lot of uses that bowie knives are not suited for. These uses will not only damage your knife, but can possibly even break the blade, ruining your knife and possibly even leading to an injury, should sharp pieces of the blade come into contact with your unprotected skin. Let's take the screwdriver usage as an example. Chances are pretty good that the tip of your bowie knife is going to fit well into the head of a screw, whether it's a flathead screw or a Phillips head. However, actually turning the screw requires that you exert pressure on the tip of the blade. Unfortunately, the metal is not designed for this type of use. Usually, what happens next is that the tip of the blade bends. You might even find that the tip snaps off completely is you are using significant force. Let's look at using your bowie knife as a pry bar to get an even better feel for why these versatile knives should not be used for such tasks.
When prying on something, it generally means that the item is either rather heavy, or it is jammed and stuck. While your knife might fit quite well under whatever that object might be, you can rest assured that you do not want to put the blade there. Even a small amount of pressure can actually bend the blade of your bowie knife, leading to some serious problems. In addition you should never use your bowie knife as a chisel or a punch. Both of these uses require specialized tools to accomplish, and bowie knives are not such tools. While they might be used in an extreme emergency, do not expect your knife blade to hold up well under this type of mistreatment. In fact, you can bend or break the blade quite easily doing this. You can also injure yourself severely if the blade were to slip. As you can see, bowie knives, while ideal tools for a wide range of different uses, are not designed for some purposes. The basic rule of thumb should be that if another type of knife wouldn't be right, then bowie knives would likely not be a good fit, either.
