I saw that too. I just ordered my first Dragonfly2 in black yesterday. I always keep my old AUS-8 Dragonfly handy, and have been holding off on a new one. Will have to get one of these when they're out too. I love orange handles.

Still no mention of the nishijin dragonflys that started stealthily showing up in online stores a few weeks ago, though. Orange is cool - fiber is cooler :D

Yes, as in orange FIBERglass reinforced nylon. :DCarbonFiberNut wrote:Still no mention of the nishijin dragonflys that started stealthily showing up in online stores a few weeks ago, though. Orange is cool - fiber is cooler :D

I think the Nishijin D'Fly is a distributor exclusive, so it probably won't get a shout out in the Byte email so as to not show favoritism toward any particular distributor.CarbonFiberNut wrote:Still no mention of the nishijin dragonflys that started stealthily showing up in online stores a few weeks ago, though.

While I get that, the lack of news about these things makes it pretty hard to find them unless you obsessively check forums all the time. I have been subscribed to Spyderco emails for years, and I had NO IDEA how many knives were released, that I would have bought, if I had known they existed. If they announced ALL of the dealer-exclusives in their emails, there would be no worries about favoritism, and a more informed customer base to boot.jabba359 wrote:I think the Nishijin D'Fly is a distributor exclusive, so it probably won't get a shout out in the Byte email so as to not show favoritism toward any particular distributor.

Can anyone tell me why I don't get the E-blast? I add my name and email. I check my spam folder and spam blocker. I still don't know why I don't receive them.
Oh, and that D-fly looks mighty nice!
Thanks in advance-
James

Despite being against Spyderco's warranty, I would expect to see some of these franken-spydie H-1 dragonflys floating around. I am half tempted to get one myself just to make the swap. I would prefer Orange with ZDP.Knifewing wrote:Wish it was the Dragonfly Salt getting the orange handle. Maybe someday...But this one is cool.

No idea why, but the same thing happens to me. I've submitted my name and email several times, and have yet to receive an e-blast. Maybe we are in Spyderco's spam folder... :pvaisforlovers wrote:Can anyone tell me why I don't get the E-blast? I add my name and email. I check my spam folder and spam blocker.
