Thanks Sal cant wait to discuss about new FRN variations, and probably all members of this forum too!
thanks for all,
spyderco its one of the best shine companies in the world i know
and its well represented in your person, i can't believe... still its possible find such gentlemans in the business world who care the opinion of the customers so much.
Im not a very old customer here, i bought my first spyderco endura ATS-55 in 2001 and from the first second i handled my first spyderco i felt, the passion well represented with a great quality in details of your knives.
And every time i buy another piece i have same feeling, only who trust in his work can come out with so much wonderful pieces.
Thanks again.

I should be starting another thread today on the FRN dragonfly. I need some research input before beginning the new mold.

The Dragonfly design has been around for many years. It's a good size with good ergos for the size. A difficult design challenge for the size.

I'm happy to read that the FRN Dragonfly will be getting some attention as well. :)

Got an email from Knife Center, mine is shipping today. And they fixed their price so it's in line with everyone else at about $82.

I could be wrong by now, but when i called to order my Spyderhawks, knifecenter did not show them in stock because they literally just arrived, this was last week, i asked what else they had from Spyderco that was in stock or that they just got in and the guy said he had some new G10 Dragonflys.


just because they dont show them in stock on the website doesnt mean they dont have them, sometimes you need to pick up the phone and call, youd be surprised sometimes, even when knifecenter only got 7 black lums in that were all spoken for i called when they just came and ended up getting one

Your post (last week I believe) is what prompted me to call them and they did not have them. Then Sal posted they were in QC which further let me know it wasn't gonna happen yet.

Oh well, check is almost in the mail now.

I called that day and they were closed. I called the next day and they said they didn't have them. I think I posted it in this thread (above).

I believe you, that's why I called them. It's all good.

I ordered one last night but man i have enough Foliage green G-10 knives...Why is this the dominant color in the Spyderco g-10 line? The orange is soooooooooo much better but you cannot get it on the Delica G-10,Urban non Wharncliff and now the DF.

Black would have been my 1st choice. Do love the orange though.

Drum roll cause as long as the UPS man can get thru all the water I should have it tomorrow.
