, a non locking spyderco with scissors. but a PE and SE blade oh my, Dreams do come true. my holy grail of knives.
Wish they would be made in Japan with VG-10, but Eric told us, that the ClipiTool should be very affordable.

Wonderful pictures, as always, Wouter!
I felt really sorry for you yesterday, you were very busy taking the pics and had no time to follow the explanations of Sal and Eric.

LOL, that's true. I don't mind it too much though, I love taking these pics. Once the knives start trickling down the line, you will notice that my notes accompanying the photos will start to shrink and shrink.... :D
I´ll also be at the IWA show next week. That should give me an opportunity to catch up as it were.

So far I'm most excited for the Clippitool with scissors. I hope they cut nicely like SAK scissors. Great pics!!

I can only say: altruism at it's best!
Thanks Wouter!

i really liked the clipitool with bottle opener, looks like it will also function as small flatdriver.
but then again, i have obsession with bottle openers.

Oh man after seeing that blue Nishijin fiber, I'm beginning to wonder if they could be made in other colors. A dark purple nishijin weave on a Dargonfly would be the bees knees.

Also loving the look of the ClipiTools, and the fact that they come with lanyard holes makes them even better! I could see myself using all three of them. Maybe I could work on supergluing them all together to make a Swiss Army Spydie :D Or I could just get a long enough screw and rivet and screw the pivots and rivet the lanyard too, hmmm the possibilities are endless! I guess you could say I'm excited for 2013 now hehe

I love the way that the Clipitools are designed. When the main blade is closed, the thumb ramp serves as the back half of the choil for the open tool. Pure genius!

Wouter the pics are heaven, the Chap 3 is so awesome! The design on the scales is very nice and as Sal mentionned there are no curved lines in the design, only straith lines, the curves are all optical illusions! Freaking awesome, I won'y miss out on the Chap 3 :)

On the cliptools I would like to see a 3 layered model containing the Sisscors , Blade and Caplifter :) Now I will have to get them all :p

Cliptools look sweet. I've been waiting for a Spyderco bottle opener. :)

I'm surprised we haven't had anyone ask if we can get them in S90V yet. :p

If these can be made as useful as the scissors on my Vic Deluxe Tinker, they will be very nice.

It would be cool if they could combine the scissors with the bottle opener/screwdriver tool, kind of like this...
