Designed for the hand not the eye ( I'm sure I got that wrong as a quote , but the idea is the same ) was an ethos that was touted by Spyderco in days gone by .
I'm not being nasty or looking for an arguement , but the Dyad is the most unergonimic Spyderco that I've ever owned , used and held .

Re: Dyad II or New Concept Double Blade Folder?
The Dyad is a conundrum.
The first Spyderco I ever bought was a Grey Dyad Sprint .
It was to big to heavy and its ergonomics were horrible , I soon sold it and Im just happy I persisted with he Spyderco brand because everything else I have purchased has been perfect .

Re: How did ZDP189 go from a stainless steel to carbon steel?
I would really like to know if there is a difference between the ZDP used on Caly 3 and 3.5 knives and the Delica - Endura line ?
I have an old Caly 3.5 that I bought secondhand and it arrived with a slight patina to the ZDP .
Over a period of time the patina escalated to a heavy patina which helped ...

Re: zdp-189 Delica...any good?
I rate the ZDP Delica highly .
The fact that you can get it as a production run and not a sprint is a great move on Spydercos behalf in my opinion .
I carried a ZDP Delica exclusively for many months before venturing into the world of alternative Delica steels ( superblue , hap40 )
In all honesty ...

Re: FRN Worker ?
I've been contemplating this idea ( straight from the horses mouth ) that the Worker concept is outdated and run its race .
After much contemplation I think that the problem with the most recent incarnations of the Worker is that it forgot who it was and where it was from .
