I love those Santa Fe "Dragonfly" dragonflies.

Has anyone else seen (on ebay or elsewhere) the dragonflies with the MOP dragonflies and wood put together. Man, they are really nice mini works of art. I'm really impressed.

Yes, they are very cool little pieces, I have had mine since october of last year. One of the highlights of my spyderco collection.

I was wondering if anyone was going to reply to this.....

The dragonfly with the planet (Saturn IIRC) is another nice one.

I've got the same version as BladeGoblin, with the box. Santa Fe has done at least two other versions of the dragonfly marquetry as well, but have never seen boxes with either of those. They are, as you observed Walking Man, works of art, and (although the reality may be quite different) seem somehow too fragile to carry. Of all the Santa Fe Spydercos I've seen and handled, the ones I find most practical for actual use are the Kiwis. I have a fair number of those, with different scale materials and, while I've carried some more than others, have no qualms about carrying any of them.

Santa Fe does good stuff. I went to blade a few years ago, and they had the Dragonfly in quite a few different patterns. If you want something that's not listed, you might be able to make a special request without too much trouble.
