Has anyone seen the new orange Dragonfly?
Hi Folks,
Has anyone seen the orange Dragonfly, yet? I have one on order but it has not arrived. I was wondering if anyone had seen it and what they thought of it.

Mine came in from KW. It is a nice bright orange. A few shots of some Dragonflies next to a Cat for comparison (just realized I forgot to include my G10 dragonfly in the pic):
Nothing wrong with orange, right? :)
Don't let the steel hold you back, nothing wrong with Spyderco's VG-10. I suppose some people will be tempted to buy the orange and do a blade swap with a ZDP-189 dragonfly.

That is a Dan Koster Scout in CPM-3V, a fun little knife.jlomein wrote:This orange is so much better than the catalog photos suggest! The stock photo is an ugly faded yellowish orange.
rodloos, what fixed blade knife is in the top middle (vertical)? Also, how long ago were the orange Ladybugs released? Are they FFG?
The orange ladybugs were done for County Comm, who ostensibly sold them to some government project and made their extras available, they are H1 steel, saber grind. They also made a run of brown ones, which are still available.

Seeing that Dragonfly next to the orange Ladybug is really making me want one. I'm trying to cut back and hold out for the SB D'fly.

Orange Dragonfly
In the wrong light it does look yellowish but it is safety orange (I think that's right). It's really the County Com Ladybug color though. Beautiful knife, by the way. I got one at Knife Center
