Spyderco Dragonfly2 Lightweight Black FRN PlainEdge Knife for sale

Spyderco Dragonfly2 Lightweight Black FRN PlainEdge Knife for sale

I acquired two with the Dragonfly2 knives as Christmas gifts. As a knife junkie, naturally I needed to "inspect" every one upon arrival. This is the most brilliant small, lockback folder design I've ever resonate. The thumb ramp is aggressively angled--as you'd just about expect from any Spyderco knife--and keep anyone's thumb available. The jimping is beautifully cut (functional and comfortable), and the knife creates a jimped finger choil upon opening which allows someone to lug near the blade. The Volcano Grip handle also assists in maintaining purchase. The round hole has a smaller footprint in diameter as opposed to one inch my Delica4 FFG (11mm vs 13mm, IIRC), but one-handed opening remains to be very easy and fast. The clip is properly designed. Of course, the flat-grind Japanese VG-10 cuts like a laser. I used to be considering buying a couple gentlemen's folders, mostly for aesthetic reasons, but I recently kept thinking about how much more usable a modern day knife design is usually (sadly, ergonomics on gentlemen's knives are wretched). Spyderco is often my make of choice when perfection is demanded.
