Re: The Manbug...Impressed

This is a fantastic little blade especially on the keychain or in the glovebox. The dragonfly is a little too big for my keychain but the manbug is the perfect size. Doesn't draw attention and can cut almost anything. Use it almost daily for mail and boxes and other cutting task. Even carrying aroun...

Re: Spyderco dragonfly ti Damascus

Yummy, I have the SS Dragonfly and I love the smooth feel so a Ti version would be make a great addition to the collection. As long as it's reasonably priced.

Re: Got a counterfeit Dragonfly Salt 2 for my birthday.

I purchased a Dragonfly H1 serrated edge from Amazon sometime late July, early Aug 2014. Mine appear to be legit. Feels right and I compared it to my SS Dragonfly. Sorry about your misfortune. Mine was sold and shipped from Amazon. Hope you get the real deal next time.

SS dragonfly does not have serrated thumb rise, why?

The other day I was comparing my dragonflies and saw the stainless steel model didn't have a serrated thumb rise like it's FRN version. Just curious if there is a technical or fundamental reason for the lack of a serrated thumb rise on the SS.

After a lot of researching on the internet, I decided to go with the SE for my Dragonfly Salt. Read the SE's edge is stronger than the PE. For me, it was about what I'm going to use the knife for i.e. cutting fishing line + rope, cut through fish bone, etc so I went with the SE. If your current line...

I love my Manbugs. Not too big, not too small. Perfect size for my keychain and when people ask me to borrow a knife, they're surprise to the quality of such a "small" knife. I love the blade shape. Love to see a H1 blade with a non-yellow FRN.

I have the exact same knife. Playing with it now and the action is smooth. Had it for several months now. Release the lock and the blade softly hits my finger. I would call Spyderco and see if you need to send it in for warranty. Sounds like there is something wrong with it. Considering you just got...

Outside Mag ranks Spyderco top 10 places to work

Catching up on my Outside mag and I think it was Sept issue that had Spyderco as one of top 10 places to work according to the magazine. So congrats to Spyderco. Any employees on the forum who don't mind giving us some insight on some of your benefits like blade discount, company paid outings, etc.

I am glad I am not the only one who has a lot of affection for the Superleaf. I would prefer it in a different steel .... but the VG-10 is okay. If the blade was a bit better steel, I would buy it immediately. Love the style. Or if the price was lower. I kinda like the Manix2 XL for the price and s...

I recommend picking one linux OS and trying it out. Worst case you'll just lose some time installing another version. I would also check your to see what version of linux it supports (driver). Good luck.
