Description
It seems like small knives get respect equivalent to their size – very little. The Spyderco Drangonfly earns big respect. Its cutting ability far exceeds its small package and innocuous name. It kicks off with premium components like VG-10 blade steel and a G-10 foliage green handle. The VG-10 is tooled into a full flat-grind 2-1/4″ long blade with a spine cusp jutting out the top where the thumb naturally settles itself. This allows the user control over the cutting edge. The G-10 handle is ergonomically blueprinted so when held and used the knife feels and performs like a larger tool. Even the positioning of the Spyderco Round Opening Hole in relation to the pivot is tweaked for smooth opening and hitting all the correct pressure points in the hand. Blade and handle geometry create a series of grip angles with a purposeful flat shelf at the base where the pinkie finger rides as a leverage point. The wire clip carries right or left-handed tip-up. This knife is proof that great things come in small packages.
