While in the middle of moving into a new house, I snuck in a little lightbox practice. Just in case I get to shoot and share a few new Spyderco production samples at the Amsterdam Meet next weekend.

What are your thoughts of the flipper and access to the lock as a left handed individual operating the C242 ? I have looked at this model several times and love my Smock but worry more about function over the beauty of this knife . Dan

Sorry for the delay! It takes a bit more effort and practice to get to the right closing technique, but nothing serious. FWIW, I also have zero problems with other more conventional (right-handed) compression locks as a left-hander.

[Manixguy@1994]

Thank you much responding . Some compression locks work fine for me depending on shape and size . If I doubt a design I usually will wait till I go to a show or sometime a friend may have a knife to test . Dan

I do love this Cutlery Shoppe exclusive lightweight Manix, so much knife for so little weight.

I just can't resist the Bob Lum Chinese Folder, such an elegant and practical design. This was a Blade HQ Exclusive.

[Mr Blonde]

I've had mine for a little while, and when you click here for more info and pics, you'll understand why mine remains a collectible.

Some more (moving) images of the Spyderco Bodacious...

[Manixguy@1994]

Thank you for pictures and video . Scales appear to be thinner than the Shaman which would be a big plus for me . MG2

[Mr Blonde]

Thank you, and absolutely, the Bodacious it's significantly thinner than the Shaman.

It was time to dust off my old Ronin.

Here's a few pics of the 2012 Spyderco sprint run C80 Dodo, that came with a carbon fiber handle. Unfortunately, the edge profile of the original blade wasn't exactly up to the standard of the Dodos that came before (or after). Luckily, an exclusive run of the Dodo for Blade HQ, presented a proper S-recurve and serrated blade to revive the older Dodo.

A few frosty photos of this phenominal folder...

I’ve shown this one before, but I found these shots I took a while back and I just had to -again- show off this excellent piece. It is a Spyderco C11 Delica 4, fitted with a raindrop pattern stainless Damascus blade, by Devin Thomas, made for me by Ed Schempp.

Some practice with my lightbox and a few new lights I had to get; with a Lil' Native, Para 3 and Persian.

I say solid A+ shots . I get frustrated doing shots outside looks great , then home and see dust specs on scales or blade . Drives me crazy but in a fun way . Hope the meeting will be fantastic. Dan
