Ive seen a couple mentions of the new, redesigned frn dragonfly thats coming soon and im just wondering if anyone has any idea on when we could expect it to be available?
I only ask because I'd really like a dragonfly as a sheeple friendly edc to go with my salt 1. If the new one is out by the end of the year, I'll just wait but if it might be a while ill just get one now and the new one later! :D
New dragonfly?

"Re: The Spyderco Dragonfly Appreciation Society
The G-10 version was a run to test the new clip. We also did a forum survey for a while do determine the config of the new FRN version . The new FRN version will have the same pattern as the older version. We are using the deep pocket L/R wire clip that is used on the G-10 version. Texture will be like the Endura/Delica "bi-directional" texturing. One piece FRN (no liner) has it at about the same weight as the older version. You can change or remove the clip.
Colors will probably be added onced we find out what our customers want. We are also going to make a BRG ZDP version and an H1 version.
The molds are finished and we've approved of prototypes so I would guess 2-3 months out.

I just ordered a stainless Dragonfly.I got it for the same price as the serrated FRN handle Dragonflys.It seems odd to me most Dragonfly FRN are serrated ? I prefer FRN usually but I believe the stainless is stronger.Not trying to hijack this thread but has anyone ever put the Decal grip material on a stainless Spydie? Did it work good?
