Ha! Didn’t realize they were available for preorder! Too many cool knives, too many small shoes and undies to buy...

Haha! Yeah, my brother-in-law mentioned wanting to give me a knife as a "new father" gift so I was window shopping. I've been so tempted by the Swick, but I think I'll pursue it later. The SE ARK will likely be my next knife.

Because I'm a the kind of dumbass who runs over his garden hose with his lawnmower, I had to use my dragonfly hawkbill to fix the stupid. The knife went thru the hose like butter and made unwrapping the hose from the blades easy. Hard to beat a serrated hawkbill for that job.

Man, I hear you. Not too long ago, I buzzed through my electrical cord with a hedge trimmer. Saw some pretty nice sparks from that one. Whoops. :o

A Sharpmaker would do wonders at sharpening those lawnmower blades up. That way if you do it again you’ll save yourself some time cutting the hose. :D :rolleyes:

I loaned my Mantra to an engineer for him to cut up sheets of closed cell foam needed for packing crates. When he was done he said, "Wow, that's sharp!" My coworkers all chimed in, well, yeah."

I've gained a reputation for sharp knives. It's easy to keep stuff sharp with a Sharpmaker. ;)

I slayed my daily nemesis, blister packs!!! No match for the Salt Dragonfly SE. It laughs in the face of any blister pack!!

Cut off a 3,5 feet tall thistle on my office parking place, it was so tall it was hanging into my trunk when opening the tailgate.
I used my Dragonfly !

I meant to ask before, how did you like that pocket clip you had on the LB? And where did it come from?

It's a wire replacement clip from Ripps garage tech, I used the dragonfly clip screws with it. It's alright, retention isn't great even on knives it's actually designed for. It doesn't have a bend like most retention clips.

Thanks :) . A good clip for the LB sounds appealing. I hope Spyderco puts one out someday.

Opened a box. Used S90v delica to open box for another s90v delica. I like the s90v delica more than a zdp delica. I prefer zdp in the smaller offerings like dragonfly and manbug/ladybug, but I like the s90v more in larger knives.
