Anyone own a Microtech Dragonfly?

Is this butterfly good for flipping, and will it's joints hold up to it well? Also, how tight is the latch?

Quite a few members of the Balisong Forum has both the Dragonfly and the Tachyon, and they can tell you that the Ti handles of the Tachyon is a tad better for flipping. But when compared to the vast quantities of cheap bali's out there, the Dragonfly is pretty damn impressive.

The MT Dragonfly is great I own two of them, they are very smooth flippers and have held up well. I actually like the Dragonfly better than I do the Tachyon for some unknown reason, maybe the weight diff. or something. But in answer to your question: Great knife for the money, the latch locks up tight and secure and the it is very solid, the pivot pins hold up well and the knife is so smooth, I have had no trouble in the Dragonfly loosening up with flipping matter of fact it stays tight much better then my Benchmade bali's, you would be happy with it.
