Spyderco Dragonfly 2 Wharncliffe Plain K390 Dark Cyan Blue FRN C28FP2WK390

Often small knives get respect equivalent to their size: very little. Spyderco's Dragonfly might make you reconsider because in this case you get a subcompact size and a lightweight platform with high-end performance. As with many designs from Spyderco, the Dragonfly has superb ergonomics with excellent leverage and control thanks to the jimped thumb ramp and index finger choil. This Wharncliffe blade version comes with a plain edge, flat ground, Bohler K390 tool steel blade and dark cyan blue Bi-directional Textured FRN handles.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco.

Blade: Instead of the iconic Leaf-shaped this Dragonfly comes with flat ground, satin finished Bohler K390 tool steel Wharncliffe blade for exceptional edge retention. Wharncliffe blades deliver full power from heel to tip for exceptional slicing and have a fine tip for piercing and detail work. A thumb ramp and index finger choil offer enhanced control and an ergonomic grip while reducing the overall footprint. A subtle spine swedge tapers to a fine point for piercing and detail work. Spyderco's ambidextrous Round Hole opener makes for smooth, easy, one hand operation.

Handle: Linerless FRN handles are durable, lightweight, and impervious to the elements with contoured edges for comfort and Bi-Directional texturing for exceptional traction. Ergonomic in design, the pommel end forms a perfect pinky finger shelf for added leverage combining with the index choil to offer plenty of grip area in a compact package. A sturdy mid-back lock design offers rock solid lock up and reliable security with a Boye Dent for added safety in a heavy grip.

Carries via a reversible stainless steel wire pocket clip.

Bohler K390: Bohler K390 is high wear tool steel made with 3rd Gen particle metallurgy processing developed to provide the extreme wear resistance and high compressive strength needed in industrial cutting, blanking, and punching operations. K390 offers very high level edge retention, comparable to 10V or S110V, with good toughness. Corrosion resistance is low, similar to M4.
