I posted your remarks over at the knife forum at Glock Talk (where I moderate). I hope you don't mind. One of our members had this to say on the matter:
I don't know how to respond to these allegations. I would appreciate it if you could come over and post with us just for a second.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Spyderco was not the first knife manufacturer to either put a pocket clip on a knife or devise a single-handed opener for a blade. I know this with utter certainty, because I saw a knife with both those features about 35yrs ago, long before Spyderco was founded.
That knife was owned by a guy who painted my parents' house back in about '65 or so. The frame and scales were stainless, it had maybe 4-5 blades, and one of those blades (a nasty little hooked thing with a really sharp point) had a thumb stud on it. Screwed into one of the scales was a not-very-elegant clip that, while kind of brutish looking, worked just fine.
I remember all this quite distinctly because from the very second I first saw it I wanted that knife in the worst way. I like to drove that poor sucker right up the wall begging him to let me check out his knife. The worst part was that he couldn't remember where he'd gotten it, and I searched in vain for quite some number of years to find one like it. Never did.</font>
