I'm listening to the new John Fogerty album. Interesting mix of old favorite songs with new performance partners. Most of the new versions still have the spirit of the originals, though. That's a good thing. TedP [video=youtube;GAu1GWbL5ds]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAu1GWbL5ds[/video] Fogerty ...

Anyone know when the Orange FRN Dragonfly will be released?

Does anyone out there know when the orange FRN dragonfly will be released? Also, where can we buy one. I contacted KW and they had never heard of it. But from what I have read, it is a new product.

Thanks,

Doc

You can go to Buck Knives and order a custom knife pretty much any way you want it. Even if it is not listed on their website you can call them and discuss the project. I am certain Spyderco could do something like this. Also, on some models they could simply offer different scales as the knives are...

I have read of people experiencing problems with the sheath. This is a new knife and I guess it has bugs. Reading this caused me to put the Enuff I had on order on hold. I want to see what transpires out of this. I know Spyderco will fix this problem. I have heard this is a great knife, other wise (...

I regularly carry the D'fly 2 in ZDP/FRN and love the knife. I've handled the G-10 model a few times but can't justify the price (and while VG-10 is great stuff I like my super steel). If I had a larger budget I would likely pick up a G-10 D'fly (and maybe matching delica/endura too). I usually try...

I just got back from picking up a Dragonfly Salt PE and some yellow paracord...will post pics later.
I want to see how that turns out. I thought of getting one of these as a fishing knife.

Spyderco factory custom scales

Hi Folks,

How many of you would like to see Spyderco produce factory custom scales that we could purchase from Spyderco to update, decorate, customize, personalize our knives? What would you like to see?

What scale materials do you want to see introduced?

Hi Folks, I wonder what materials you would like to see Spyderco introduce on their current production knives? I would like to see: 1) Lightening Strike Carbon Fiber on the G10 Dragonfly and Manbug (those models with liners). 2) I would like to see forest green G10 on the Enuff. What about you all? ...

I only keep a very few of the most important. If they are everyday run of the mill knives, like a BM 556 or Delica FRN, then I do not keep them. If it is a high end knife or a custom, then yes I do.

Sounds like it was a bad situation... For my purposes, the FRN is adequate. I use it to open packages and letters at home, and when I take it out, it is usually paired with a bigger,sturdier knife. Do you carry the Dragonfly as a standalone? If you often face these situations, you could carry a big...

did the flexing in any way make it unable to perform its job? Yes, because the knife just bent sideways. A police office arrived and we used his knife. From that day on, I have had no knife in my pocket without liners to stiffen it. I might consider one of the H1 Dragonflies as it would not be my p...
