Yojumbo S90V carbon fiber

[VashHash]

Maybe this will convince DLT to make a DLC / brown yojumbo to match the yojimbo.

Beautiful beast of a blade.

Beautiful beast of a blade.

It really is! I love that so many of Spyderco's beasts use s90v.

It has a very similar overall profile to one of my all-time favorite (and most used) knives, but I was always hesitant to get one because it was absolutely impossible fo me to get a comfortable grip on the yojimbo 2.

Couldn't say no to s90v and carbon fiber, especially considering it was only ~10% over the base model.

EDIT: Yojumbo with the "other":

[ABX2011]

What is that other knife?

[bmstrong]

I really want to see that rumored miniJimbo...

What is that other knife?

Thats an R&H Coba.

Made by Jan Samek, from Czechia. He makes some really high quality, yet relatively affordable handmade customs.

Titanium liner lock
Elmax
4.1" blade length
.125" stock thickness
9.625" overall length

How does it feel now that you have it's bigger brother in hand ?

Mine got delivered. Too bad I won’t be home for another 5 days.

Thanks for posting those images. Here is a mod I am considering. Opening up the front area to have a two finger scallop, cutting off that corner of the blade to not get bumped on closure of the compression lock tab area, taking out the rear peak for more of a neutral rear handle portion.

The part of the blade is more towards the edge.


You can see the plunge of the grind here


I'm debating if I want to sand down the hump in the middle. It's not a difficult mod I'm just not sure if it really matters in use.

[Fireman]

Thanks for “point”ing that out

Awesome knife, but the detent is strong with one! I might have to take out the second finger bump though.

[Fireman]

will know in a few days how my hands fit but the first peak is important for grip being the strongest so I was thinking making room forward of the first peak by the pivot.

That would work too, but it seems like it would be a lot harder to look good.

Function trumps all.

I just wanted to say thank you to Spyderco and the head honchos there for not only coming out with this knife, but making a jumbo version and then the cherry on top, making a premium version of the jumbo. I love Spyderco!!!!!!

Yay! Found one at Indiana knives and just completed the order. First sprint run!

Found one at Indiana knives

Managed to snag one as well, thanks for the heads up. Was getting a bit scared I may have missed out entirely since a lot of places have gone silent
