Put G10 handles on the knife, full SpyderEdge and I´m willing to pay them exorbitant costs :eek: to get the knife over here.

I might even buy two at the same time ;)

I was thinking something similar. Hope that could be solved somehow.

WOW!! some seriously nice photoshop!

I've said it before, and I say it again, Spyderco needs to make D-fly size hawkbill. Then there's a full set, from LBK to Superhawk.

THANK YOU for making that photoshop, maybe we'll get this done sometime.. Superhawk was made to shut us hawkbill fans up :D , then there was LBK hawkbill. So, miracles do happen :)

Loose the lanyard hole, and use a post spacer for the lanyard and problem solved.
But it would be a redesign....... Not quite as easy for the crew in CO.

I would get it in se for sure. I have faith in the minds at Golden to come up with a solution to the problem of a hawkbill fitting in a d'flys handle.

Great photoshop work Rutgrr.

Very nice Photoshop skills!

I think the knife would be an instant hit.

Sometimes the tasman is too big and the ladybug is too small. This would be perfect.

Love your concept! It would make a great little big knife...
I think DragonHawk might be a better name for your knife though, as any name with "fly" tends to make me think of the Spyderco butterfly knives...
