It seems like small knives get respect equivalent to their size, very little. Most people wouldn’t look at a subcompact lightweight car and think “high-performance vehicleâ€. That first estimation could change when it’s revealed that clown car is disproportionately packing 350 horsepower and a high-speed racing package. Another example of stature not accurately representing ability is a Spyderco Dragonfly. Its cutting ability is unequal to its diminutive package and innocuous name. It kicks off with premium components like VG-10 blade stee! l 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 for 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. Wire clip carries right or left-handed tip-up or use it as a money clip.The Spyderco Dragonfly knife may be small, but its cutting ability is high performance all the way. The Dragonfly features a 2-1/4-inch VG-10 steel blade with a full flat grind and spine cusp jutting out the top. The cusp is positioned where the thumb naturally settles i! tself, giving you complete control over the cutting edge. The ! knife al so includes a G-10 foliage green handle that's ergonomically blueprinted to feel bigger than it actually is. As a result, the Dragonfly handles like a large tool despite its small size. Even the positioning of the round hole in relation to the pivot is tweaked to hit all the correct pressure points in the hand when you open the knife. The blade and handle geometry create a series of grip angles with a purposeful flat shelf at the base, letting the pinkie finger ride as a leverage point.
The Dragonfly comes with a wire clip that carries the knife tip-up either right- or left-handed. The wire clip doubles as a money clip in a pinch.
