All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
Hey, folks--regular user of multiple Spydercos here. I love my SE Dfly Salt in particular, but I'd really like a more subdued version for some environments.
Having seen the discussion of the CQI Salt series in the DEC Byte and in the 2020 product guide with the blacked out back lock and hardware, I'm wondering if maybe an all black version is coming down the road. Add the black wire clip from the black Lil Native, and all of the components are already in production except the coated blade.
Would anyone else like to see this happen?

I suppose it would make sense. Those who don’t like yellow may prefer an all black look. I know for sure there are plenty of us looking for more black blades for the Dragonfly 2. Sounds like a winner to me
Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
ive Always wondered why the D’fly didn’t come in a black coated blade and would love to see it! Scale color isn’t as important thanks to rit dye

Yes to any black-bladed dragonfly!

I would be all in for an all black Dragonfly Salt! Would really like to see an all black Dragonfly Hawkbill Salt.
I've made the request for a production all black Ladybug Hawkbill in the past but maybe an all black Dragonfly Hawkbill would be the better choice?![wink ;)](./images/smilies/winking-face.png)

I only have 8 Dragonflies so getting one in all black would give me a much needed addition.

Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
A black blade Dfly is a missing piece of the Spyderco line up to me. I would buy at least one. I also think TiCN would look good on the Teal version.
Do right always. It will give you satisfaction in life.

Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
That this is the first and only TiCN-coated Dfly astonishes me a bit - not sure why anything smaller than a Delica in the Seki factory is typically not considered for blacked-out treatment, given how awesome it looks!

Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
K390 would be a good candidate for a coating.
I'm not so much in favor of coating the salt version, though. I want my Salts shiny and highly visible.

I would like the option of a black blade on every knife but especially the serrated Salt Dragonfly.

Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
I’ve been holding off on the Dragonfly platform so far, but I would jump on a black blade serrated, regular and hawkbill.
Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
Put me down for a blacked out DF. Everything blacked out with FFG VG 10 blade.
Re: All black Dragonfly Salt...one step closer?
Let’s get those black scales, and the bevel TiCN coated, too :p
