Spyderco Szabo Folder Black out!
Spyderco Szabo Folder Black out!
Just picked up a Spyderco Szabo Folder Black from HKS. I was waiting for the black version I don't know if the Cosby CF is uglier then the Snoop Dogg CF on the satin version. Both not the best choises Spyderco made but what a great knives!

I *love* the CF on my Szabo!
It looks like your blacked-out version has the same CF as the Domino? Looks very pretty, but I still think I prefer the lightning-strike CF :D . Good thing Spyderco makes so many different choices available to us, something for everyone to love!
Even though I have no martial-arts or defensive training and don't expect to ever use my Szabo in anger, I still like to carry it sometimes, just to appreciate its beauty, and I find it very comfortable in the hand also.

I'm not getting one. I know I am not getting one. I am not going to go on like I might get one. However, that is one seriously badass blade. Like modern day pirate badass. I think if you bought one and carried it for a day, it might cause you to find extra hairs on your body. You might find a vein you did not see or the faint outline of abs. The Szabo folder is what those ridiculous "brass balls" hanging from pick up trucks hope they get smelted into in the next life.

It was a toss up between the lighting strike model or the Vallotton for me but got the latter .
I'd still like this but would prefer the original but with thicker scales the lightning strike cf is aesthetically great but when its made thin it loses some appeal .
Des horn makes some great Lightening strike Cf which tends to be thicker I think this would be better like the black out too though , awesome blade indeed I'd like to sharpen the top edge too :eek: .
But it also saddens me as it reminds me we can't get the balisong fly and when I think of that anodised model I get very sad I know bar emigrating I won't own one .
