You bum; I completely fell for it.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Fat chance. Usually the only time we get proto/concept photos is from the Amsterdam meet.

The blue is a bit brighter than I expected. I had thought the blue was designed to blend in with jeans better...

I also ordered mine off that lo-rez photoshopped pic that everyone has
on their sites. This pic from the SHOT Show yesterday is the first
picture I've seen of an actual proto. Nice to confirm the blue G10
looks pretty rocking... :)

No offense taken dude :)

I wasn't 100% sure on the blue G10.....actually
still not 100%...but I like the idea of the FFG S30V blade in this package.

Look perfect for my tastes, clear cage on polished clip!
I think polished clip with black cage not so nice so or both clear or both black.

Looks really nice to me. The blue looks like the same or very close to the color of the blue Yojimbo and Dodo. Which IMO, is a good thing! :D

No photos but Knifecenter.com was reporting several sprints and what they saw

http://blog.knifecenter.com/shot-show-news-2/

Spyderco has a modest offering for 2010. There will be a larger version of the Honeybee and Bug called the Grasshopper. Second half of the year there will be a large leaf blade folder in a Super Hawk frame.The Matriarch – a smaller Civilian style folder- will return as a sprint run with a Zytel brown handle with 800 only offered in each of plain and serrated. They will have the Endura and the Delica released with a variety of handle colors including green, purple, blue, gray, red and brown, and the grind will be fully flat. They will also offer the UK pen knife as a lightweight model also in a variety of colors and two blade styles. There will be a fully serrated sheepsfoot rescue model. Also a titanium and a carbon fiber offering. The Bifold will come out and will be treated as an auto. The blue Manix that will be coming with the flat ground S30V blade and skeletonized liners that greatly reduce the weight. It will have a heftier price tag as well. A sprint run of a Tim Zoada will be coming with VG10 steel, 4220 MSRP, carbon fiber handle, double liners and 1200 pieces. Jason Breendon designed folder with a very off Pterodactyl looking blade with a 1″ section on top of the blade that looks like it should be sharpened, but isn’t and a slightly curved cutting edge almost Ulu style. Very odd! VG10 steel and shipping mid year. An extra large Lum Chinese folder with a “peel ply” carbon fiber handle which has a very smooth finish and VG10 steel blades. These are being made in Japan.

A lot in that report...

Looks like the Blue Manix 2 will have skeletonized liners.

OMG!!! MATRIARCH!!! WHOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Just when I thought I'd never get the chance to own one of these at a reasonable price. Plus PE and SE and brown too. :D

The Superhawk handle with the big leaf-shaped blade sounds pretty dang cool too. :cool:
