Hey does anyone know what kind of grind the production Spyderco Barong will have? And anyplaces taking pre-orders?
Thanks
 
The production Barong will have a just under 4", full flat ground, VG-10 blade.

The grind on the prototype pictured stops abruptly at the Spyderhole, but it will extend under the hole on the production version.

From handling the proto,this liner lock is almost fully engaged in the handle. There is no release space in the handle like ordinary liner locks (for ex. a Starmate). The liner protrudes a bit out of the scales in the choil, and from there you can release it with your thumb. From that perspective, this one will suit lefties better then the ordinary liner lock. Not sure how the clip mounts though...
 
If its a liner lock there is room for a frame lock conversion :thumbup:
