SEF,

I think metal filings (as result of sharpening) isn’t fine enough to be absorbed by skin.
I think he was talking about metal fillings in your teeth (i.e. silver mercury amalgam), not metal filings fromknife sharpening.

Re: New Model Dropped: Calypso Jr. Super Blue sprint run (PICS)

I have to say that the one thing I would have liked on my SB Caly Jr is jimping. But I think that this is a great knife! I love the weight and the FRN pattern and the steel. Thanks for this Sprint run!

Re: Lil Native Lightweight?

Oh man I can't wait! I'm a huge fan of small FRN knives (Caly Jr, chaparral LW, and of course DF2). There just so practical. It'll be nice to see a Native LW made in Golden!

Re: Models That Absolutely DESERVE Sprint Runs

One from the ethnic series I'd love to see return - the Khukhri. That is such a beautiful knife! I can pick one up on eBay for a pretty penny but it would be amazing for it to make a comeback in XHP.

Re: Opinions on VToku

Thanks for the response. Yeah, I really like both the color of the Sprint run dragonfly's frn and the look of the laminated blade. I'm sure that anything Spyderco puts out will be an excellent product.

Opinions on VToku

I have the VToku Dragonfly on preorder but I've heard from others that VToku doesnt hold an edge particularly well. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with this?

That's really cool! Thanks for the announcement. I already preordered a VToku Dragonfly but I may pick up a meerkat as well. The phantom lock looks really cool. Plus I love smaller knives :)

Hi Sam,

Welcome to our forum.

Thanks! I've been collecting spydercos on and off for a while and thought I'd take a look :) I've had a serious uptick in the knife bug lately!

Re: Who else is excited about the FRN Sage that Spyderco plans to make?

I'm super excited about the Sage in FRN. I love FRN, despite all it's naysayers. It's a super practical, lightweight, affordable material. All my spydies but 2 (delica titanium and Paramilitary) are in FRN.

Re: Models That Absolutely DESERVE Sprint Runs

I'd love to see the leaf storm return. I always wanted one before it was discoed. I know it wasn't the most popular model, but it's such a nice size and felt great in the hand the one time I got to handle one in a store. Maybe put it out with dark green g10 and xhp? Id buy that in a heartbeat.
