The prototype was clear and IIRC Eric said that it might be released in different colors in the future.
Don't mess with the Spyder because you think you're fly.

Do you already have it? If so, thoughts about the steel used? Blue is a little toyish for me but I'd get one in VG-10.

What about RIT dye? Wouldn't yellow make the FRCP green, to an extent?

I like the different colors idea.
I also like the translucent. Orange Trans would be pretty cool.
Eric said they would prob come out later - I would think much later with all the new stuff coming

I think this video might be relevant:

Apparently a black opaque handled lightweight version will be released sometime in the future.

It would be great if they came out with a H1 version and made the handles Translucent Yellow OH YEAH!

I don't have one yet so I can't say about the steel. I think I would prefer a solid color. I would take any color but black.

I have one, but haven't used the steel enough to pass judgment on it yet. Although, I will say that it is my favorite spyderco to date; mostly because of just how smooth yet solid the lockup and travel is, plus the ergos and light weight just nail it out of the park for me. :cool:

No
We would rather be the knife in your pocket, because is "works" better, than the knife in your showcase, because it "looks" better.
