Spyderco Dragonfly Exclusive Smooth Carbon Fiber Black CruWear Back Lock C28CFPBK

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 Limited distributor exclusive comes with smooth carbon fiber handles over black liners with matching hardware, clip and black TiNi coated CPM-CruWear blade.

Brand new, direct from Spyderco Knives, Japan.

Blade: The iconic Leaf-shaped blade of the Dragonfly comes in flat ground CPM-CruWear tool steel for a combination exceptional toughness and edge retention with ease of sharpening. Finished with a black TiNi coating the blade is discreetly non-reflective while gaining some corrosion resistance. 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: Black coated stainless steel liners support smooth carbon fiber handle scales for a striking look and modern performance. This is a functional and stylish option for dress or gentleman's daily carry. 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. A generous hole is provided for lanyard attachment.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up only, stainless steel wire pocket clip.

CPM CruWear: is a tool steel toughness approaching that of CPM 3V with edge retention comparable to CPM S30V/S35VN. While it is a tool steel the chromium content makes it semi-stainless and corrosion resistance should be at or above that of D2.
