This came in yesterday. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when I was opening it. Really cool.
This is my first dragonfly and I think it might just be the perfect size for an EDC blade for office work environments like mine. I really love my Salt 1, but it does get a little big for slacks.

Got this beauty today, managed to get some low light snaps before the sun went down. There is a really nice contrast between the polished/dull layers. In hand it feels just as light as my FRN model but obviously much more solid- the spring feels much stronger but that could be because its new. I'm having a hard time reading the steel mark on the blade but it appears to say DPS.15 VG10.
Yeah for sure, I will be taking extra care not to scratch up the blade tho :eek:Pockets wrote:Nice. Will you use it? I'm curious about how that steel performs.
I wouldn't expect performance to be any different of any seki vg10 as the core/edge is solid from what I understand. I read the edge-ucation booklet and the D.P.S 15 marking represents the layers of damascus cladding. But yeah the edge is still good old vg10, have my frn if I feel like testing it :)
