I've always been a big fan of the shape and aesthetic of the Yojimbo, but it was too small.
Now given how well the Yojumbo has been executed (one of the only knives ever with a 1:1 ratio of Blade Length to Edge Length) this practically becomes my #1 all time favorite Spyderco.
The Yojumbo even has more edge length than the Police 4, it would take a miracle to make a knife better than this one in my eyes.

Is this just going to be available at one place or through Spyderco as well?

I think this will be the hottest seller of this reveal but the stretch XL will obviously sell way more units. I will try see if I can get one through Spyderco. The next question is when the drop will be.

The last all blacked out yojumbo was announced in January last year and it was available around August, so if that's any indication maybe 8 months.....

And... it's gone. 20CV too, really thought I was onto something here... :sleeping Does satin blade mean classic brushed finish that Spyderco use on their blank steel? Always confused when I see satin in a Spyderco listing... :thinking

I guess they're a distributor for Spyderco now, excellent choice.

The carbon fiber looks quite texturized, it seems this was an issue with some people who said the Yojimbo 2 CF sprint didn't provide enough grip so glad this issue was addressed.

For reference, our hand model today looks like a ripped Alex Jones with forearms the size of small trees.

nice, I like the grippy peel ply CF they used on Millies, the ZDP Stretch etc.

Tempting to order one of these instead of waiting in hopes of a DLC version, and doing a blade swap with my DLC S30V.

This angle illustrates how the golden ratio is the foundation in all great designs.

Here's the reverse side, it seems the carbon is kinda hard to capture on camera.
