Spyderco Forums

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 this knife, and this unique dark grey version is an awesome color...
