It would be cool if spyderco made a fixed blade like this. Very typical spyderco ergonomics in a fixed blade but a little more slim and neutral than the enuff fixed blade. And with a more calypso style blade and thumb ramp

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

Agreed...the Caly Jr. has an exceptionally nice lock release. This is the best spyderco/glesser edc folder design. Just beautiful, functional, and combines all of spydercos core design elements. The black micarta is THE version for me, but I also do like the unique texture for the frn version of th...

Re: My first SLIPIT experience / Spyderco Urban

I’m still not a big cheap plastic fan personally. Steel bolsters, bone, micarta and pins options would look excellent on this knife imo

This has been my main carry this week. Just the perfect edc size, and perfect spyderco design essence

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

It’s just preference honestly. Get what better suits your design preferences ideally based on a mix between what aesthetics you prefer and performance you’re looking to get from a spyderco folder in this size. An obvious thing to point out would be the lil native is a bit more stout and hand filling...

Re: Chaparral Slipit?

It doesn’t. Keep in mind that the Urban and Squeak models feature a simplified slipit construction compared to the UKPK. AFAIK so far only the UKPK has the more involved and subjectively much nicer feeling mechanism. A Chap slippie could be marketed much more premium than the basic Urban and could ...

Re: Chaparral Slipit?

I realize there are differences but I still think it’s too close to the ukpk and urban to compete in their split joint line. It just doesn’t feel necessary with designs already very similar in the slipit line. I’d rather the chaparral stay as it was intended. Taichung made lockback gentlemens folder...
