That's right, but I'm working on some more footage of the same knives though.

I know you are not allowed to discuss a lot of what you've seen, but can you say if there was anything Hawkbill related in the works? After having tried it, I just can't get enough of that lovely SE Hawkbill style of blade :D
Once again, thanks for sharing!
I did see a hawkbill or two as a concept model, could go either way as far as development into a production model though.

Did I miss the Native Chief video?Wartstein wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2019 4:02 pmRight, at that weight it just can't have liners. But maybe the weight is not stated correctly? At about 1:00 and even more so at about 1:55 into the vid it looks like there were liners. Not sure though, just can look at the vid on my crappy cell phone at the moment.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2019 Report
I keep going back to the pictures of the Endela and trying to work out what the overall blade shape/handle shape reminded me of.....it was nagging at me.
Then it hit me: the Endela is basically a supersized Manbug- the blade shape and handle are the exact profile of that little marvel- but turned into an XXXL Version.
And I'm really quite interested in putting it into my hand :)

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2019 Report
So the Wharnie DFly is a definite buy for me. I don't do a lot of cutting in my job (I'm a teacher), and having something small is a good idea. The Endela isn't legal where I live, but man do I want one. The Endura doesn't quite fit my hand like I expect (Sage line is my point of comparison), and I am thinking the Endela will be juuuuust right.
Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2019 Report
So practically same weight as the (noticeable smaller) Delica?!

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2019 Report
The value folders remind me of evolution on the Cricket design. The Cricket is still one of my favorite utility designs, despite all the sub-optimal things about the shape, clip, lock, etc.
I'd love to see these new folders with reverse-S blades in SE... :D
Re: Video: Spyderco 2019 Production Sample – Dragonfly 2 Emerson Opener
Thanks for posting the vid and once more for this thread in general!!
On the Emerson DFly: Cool, that such a model exists now, but it is not for me... sabregrind instead of the slicier FFG, less penetration when for example cutting cardboard due to the Emerson feature, most likely less comfortable when you put your finger on the spine compared to the regular model.
I can say that for me among the two upcoming DFlys one will be my most favorite (Wharnie), one my least favorite (Emerson) in the DFly line-up...
