You'll love it! I ordered mine out of curiosity, not expecting it to become one of my favorites. But it did, and still is!

It's one of my most carried during the weekdays. The XHP takes a **** of an edge and polishes up very nice.

I love the design and materials, but seeing one next to a sage is the only reason I don't own one yet. It looks mighty small, like dragonfly length just wider.. I really wanna handle one but the pics I saw make me long for a Techno XL to wrap my catchers gloves around.

Red, did you get a regrind? The bug looks like its almost gone.

And to zinc, give your thumb a little time to adjust before you pass judgement. I was about to take the scale to the sander to open up access to the hole but my thumb finally figured it out after about a week.

I've had mine for about 10 days (also from eBay) and like it a lot...a far better slicer than I thought it would be for such a thick blade stock and spine...can't stop playing with it. Almost didn't buy it since I just got the Sage 2 not long ago and love that knife, but other than both being Ti frame-locks, they're quite different and I'm very glad I moved on the Techno. I don't have a lot of knives and they're all EDC users, and only 5 Spydercos (3 out of Taichung) but the product quality from that facility (especially for the money) is astounding!

Arrived today and here is the update!

First impression is heavy :eek: I expected Titanium will give it pretty light weight.

The only comparing with my Cat, techno is very heavy compare with cat.

the F & F is excellent and razor sharp when out of box.

Especially the spyder hole, on the cat is a cutting my nail but not on the techno, which is very outstanding

the thick spine made it a poor slicer but it seems a lot stronger on all other tasks.

techno needs more effort to flip open lol

Really cool design really like it. Thanks for my girlfriend

Congrats on the new knife. I absolutely love mine! I hope Spyderco makes more titanium handles with the stone washed look.

Just the angle of the picture, no regrind. Ken has the only reground Techno I've seen and spyder is completely gone.

There's another model coming from Marcin Slysz with a longer blade, hopefully it hits production.

I've got a feeling that this Bug is going to become one of my absolute favorites....

I think that it will be the perfect companion for my Military. :D
