I really like my new knife. Just picked it up yesterday and carried it all day today. Another fine job Spyderco!

From WW sale? :D I almost got one but found out it sticks out of pocket too much when clipped.

I was really on the fence with this one and mostly because of the way it looks. But once I had it in hand and walked around with it in pocket at ww it felt great. I really find that the angle it sits is quite nice because you never fumble for it and it's very easy to extract out of pocket. Very smooth, tight lockup, great grip for a ss knife because of the finger choils. I was really surprised. The Spyder hole is a wee bit sharp on the edges but I can take care of that relatively easily.

I like my Scorpius too. I always end up carrying either it or a Dialex.

I think the Scorpius should be re-introduced in G-10. It worked so well for the Poliwog, and I think the Scorpius would benefit even more.

The Scorpius is a great knife design. It molds to your hand.

Add a wireclip and I'm in.

This would be an awesome knife in G-10 pants. I think this is one of my favorite handle designs, but its in my least favorite handle material.

Nice pic.

That was my first Spyderco. It was a love/hate relationship. I loved the blade but hated the butt of the handle.

Perhaps one of the CF handle versions wold be a better option?
