Dragonfly 2 Salt Lightweight Rustproof - Yellow

This is a much smaller knive than I thought it would be. However, the quality of materials and build is excellent. Expensive for the size, but quality ergonomics and materials.

A fantastic knife, great quality and super compact. Very sharp. I own a Spyderco Yojimbo2 and the quality is also top notch. Knife has no blade play and locks into place perfectly. Highly recommend

Lightweight

This little knife is amazingly good. PROS: - Incredibly lightweight. 34g! By far the lightest "fully usable" knife I know of. (By that I mean, safe to hold, one hand open, large enough size, etc.) I can clip this onto my boxers when I'm at home and I don't even know it's there until I need it, or when I'm doing sports it can easily clip onto any type of pants, either in the pocket or on the waistband. - Can be converted into a non-locking UK legal knife, but still safer than most other non-locking knives due to the excellent finger choil. (the cutout shape under the blade). I converted mine by adding some stickers onto the lock, which prevents the blade from being able to lock. I will glue the stickers in place to make this more permanent before I take it outside. - Awesome steel choices. I have the serrated H1 which is very highly regarded, and even though I am not at all a knife collector I am considering a plain edge VG10 which is also a very highly regarded steel. - Easy to open with one hand, although not as super smooth opening as some others which doesn't bother me in the slightest. - Decent pocket clip. Very strong grip. I do wish it was "deep carry", meaning the entire knife gets hidden in the pocket, but that's not a problem. I might make my own pocket clip using some wire, should be a fun project. CONS: - It's a lightweight use knife, not something for chopping down trees and building a log cabin. - Amazon's price is a bit higher than some others, although as usual with amazon the price can often go up and down. - I would prefer an option for tip-down setting on the pocket clip, but it's really not a problem. - The back lock is not as quick to close as a liner lock knife, but still doable with one hand pretty easily. - The clip is so strong it's sometimes a little difficult to clip on and off. Not a problem, if I wanted I could bent it back a little, but for now I actually love how secure it is. Which steel version I'd get: - VG10 steel (currently in black and orange handle versions) is very highly regarded. Very good overall in rust resistance, edge retention and ease of sharpening. - H1 steel (yellow handle "Salt" version) is also very highly regarded, with good edge retention and the bonus of being basically rust-proof, even in salt water. The yellow handle is also nice for being less aggressive looking. - The ZDP-198 steel (dark blueish handle) is sort of a "specialty steel", it's made for extreme edge retention - but it's hard to sharpen and prone to some slight rusting. So that's not for me. Serrated vs plain edge: It's just down to preference. The serrations are incredibly good at cutting many materials, and should remain usable even when the edge isn't super sharp anymore. - The plain edge is safer to use in my experience (those serrations bite!), and will provide better and/or cleaner cuts in some materials and is still excellent overall. I've heard many knife enthusiasts say they prefer a plain edge. Conclusion: Don't buy one, you will love it so much that you'll want another. :)

Incredibly sharp and very compact. All nuts and bolts need a little locktite to secure the fixings. Handle is lightweight and has ample grip pattern

Before Reading the LAST paragraph below, keep POINTS 1-4 in mind regarding configurations: 1. DRAGON FLY 2: w/ VG-10 Steel, Plain or Serrated edge: This knife is good for everyone as the steel holds and edge well, and resharpens easily enough, it is also relatively corrosions resistant. 2. DRAGON FLY 2: w/ ZDP 189 Steel, Plain edge: FIRST, THIS IS AN EXCELLENT KNIFE: I have not seen it offered in a Serrated edge but they my offer it I am not sure: This knife is ONLY GOOD FOR THOSE WHO ARE EXPERTS AT SHARPENING KNIVES. This steel is extremely hard and holds and edge exceptionally well. The disadvantage is that it takes someone who is a very skilled sharpener to resharpen and work with this steel. It is 3% carbon so it is susceptible to corrosion if not cared for properly. 3. DRAGON FLY 2: w/ H1 Steel, Plain or Serrated edge: This knife is good for everyone. This steel is advertised as RUST PROOF. This steel is relatively hard and holds an edge well, and resharpens easily enough. 4. DRAGON FLY 2: w/ Aogami Blue Super Steel (Spyderco does Sprint Runs with this metal), Plain or Serrated edge: This knife is ONLY GOOD FOR THOSE WHO ARE EXPERTS AT SHARPENING KNIVES. This steel is extremely hard and holds and edge exceptionally well. The disadvantage is that it takes someone who is a very skilled sharpener to resharpen and work with this steel. It is a high carbon steel so it is susceptible to corrosion if not cared for properly. However. Syperco counters this by sandwiching the Aogami Blue Super Steel between a layer of 420J Steel on each side. This protects the Aogami steel from chipping, breaking, and corrosion. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHOICES. IT DOES TAKE SOME EFFORT TO SHARPEN CORRECTLY AS NOTED ABOVE, BUT THE RESULTS ARE WORTH THE EFFORT! NOW, WRITTEN BELOW ARE MY GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE KNIFE IN GENERAL. THE ABOVE FACTS ARE SPECIFIC TO THE DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS OF STEELS AND BLADE TYEPES OFFERED. I am a huge fan of the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 in any of its configurations. This is a smaller knife that does not know it is a smaller knife. Its ergonomics allow it to be used as a larger knife. Its small size allow it to be used as an excellent ED (Every Day Carry). You can take this knife out in public, and because of its smaller size, most people do not generally look at you like you are evil or at looking to do harm to others. This knife has a generous blade and its light weight of 1.1 oz. makes it a joy to carry as you can easily forget that it is even in your pocket. The pocket clip allows for easy deployment and can be switched for left or right carry or you can simply take the clip off and carry it in a pocket. This knife can even be used on a keychain or a neckless due to its light weight. I own many expensive knives, but this relatively inexpensive knife has become on elf my favorite knives. NO MATTER WHICH STEEL YOU CHOSE, THIS KNIVE IS CAPABLE OF EDGES FOR HAIR WHITTLING LEVELS OF SHARPNESS!!! THIS IS AN EXCELLENT KNIFE NO MATTER WHICH STEEL OF BLAKE CONFIGURATION YOU CHOSE. IT IS HARD TO GO WRONG WITH THE PURCHASE OF THIS KNIFE!!!

Mini spyderco pour la plage ou la pêche

Aggressively sharp spyder edge blade with nice ergonomics and bright color. I love this knife so much. It’s a bit small but carries perfectly in pocket and holds in hand as a bigger knife thanks to the design, but after I used it for a while I now feel the plain blade is maybe better for daily carry. However, if your looking for a serrated knife you can’t go wrong with this one.

El cuchillo en tiempo de entrega y acabado es de 5 estrellas, pero compré dos y en ambos casos llego la versión con filo serrado que se ve en mi foto. Todas las imagenes de la publicación solían ser de la versión de filo liso, que es la que estaba esperando. *Actualmente el producto sí tiene fotos pertinentes.

Muy ligera. De muy buen tamaño para el bolsillo. Ideal para trabajos en ambientes húmedos ya que su acero h-1 es altamente resistente a la corrosión.
