We need to give Spyderco a break on the foliage green G10.
I am guessing that they have to buy large amounts of G10 at one time so in order to give us knives in colors they would have to do a few models in that color.
I am hoping that is the case so we will see some other models in orange and maybe someday in silver tweed.
Knives I figure we can see in the orange G10

Harpy

Boy, this is a beautiful Dragonfly.

I just got the ok from Sal to go ahead and do some Modifications.

So if your interested please PM me.

I can do pretty much whatever you want. Also note that I can do G10 to any knife in Black, Red, Blue, or Orange.

Anyways PM me. (Lets keep This kind of commerce off the forum and in private) Thanks folks.

I think "customized versions" is better terminology. "Knock offs" implies that the design is being mimicked in some way and at a lesser quality than the original version.

Tricod is working off of standard Spyderco models. He's just adding some features, refinements, qualities that gear those models more toward the personal tastes of the owners who commission the work.

Yes, definitely not "knockoff".
That is a work of art. I can appreciate the skill it took to fit the spring clip. :cool:
