Wooden Dragon Fly Kit

#1

Post by IG-88 »

I was just looking on the New Products page on the Spyderco site when my eye fell on this

http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=789

A wood kit to build a Dragonfly!! Awesome!! I gave my first son a CRKT Nathans Knife. And we had hours a fun building and painting it. And now I will be able 2 offer my second son a Dragonfly kit. How cool is that. And for a very reasonable MSRP $18

Will order 2 when they come available!! But I think the add was published a little to early :)

I just found that too. I hope they are out before Christmas. I'm getting my oldest his first Spyderco (brown Delica). I know the younger 2 are going to be jealous. This would be perfect.

It'll resist rust better than the best stainless steel knife. But termites now become an issue. ;)
