The Spyderco Shaman's organic scale profile and light sandpaper texture make it a pleasure to carry and use.

Thank You !
THAT is the first decent (very well done) image of the scales that I have seen so far .
I often wonder at what vendors and knife manufactures think are desirable / attractive images of their products .
I am not, by any means, any sort of photographer and I could convey far more visual information of knives in an image than MOST of their images .
 
I guess I was under a rock with BPS released a folder so I bought one and carried it today:

They call it the Colibri which I'm sure means something but to me it's just a neat little flipper only knife. The description says it's black G10 but it looks and feels like no G10 I've ever handled. It has a feel far more like an unpolished carbon fiber where it's ever so slightly grippy if that makes sense. The clip is not lefty adjustable but it is inset with flush fit screw heads which all pocket knives should have these days. You can front or back flip it if you have talented enough fingers. I'm just dexterous enough to do a deliberate front flip but I can solid fast back flip with ease. I was happy to see 14C28N since with some previous stainless steel fixed blades they've used Chinese steels which work fine but who wouldn't prefer some sweet Sandvik instead??? This added to the rotation means it should be carried again when I turn eleventytwo... Not a first world problem I mind at all.
