Wow, what a sharp little bugger. The tip catches into stuff and slices and dices :D I think it kind of looks cute lol. It surprised me how small it was.
The lock up is secure with no blade play in the vertical or horizontal direction. The blade flicks open with no effort and the knife is easy to close.
The handle has perfect ergonomics, I have never held a knife that is more secure in the hand. The g10 is rugged and tough but a little too rough. The clip could use some loosening because I can see it eating the edges of my pocket if I clipped it. Overall, I am extremely pleased with another quality spyderco product.
Spoon River Cutlery has another happy customer also. Very professional and quick service. The communication that Walter Krafft posesses is amazing. I will definitely be buying there again (this is like my 4th knife from him).
Off to slice some paper... :D
 
Thanks for your short review uconntomtom78. I read a review about this knife in a German knife magazine. At first I didn't like the Dodo at all, but the more I read about it the more I become interested. I'm sure it holds an edge very well, but what will you use if one day it needs to be sharpened (considering the blade shape)?
 
That's what I'm wondering myself Burnett. I read all I could about this knife on the forums but can't find any info on people sharpening this knife successfully.
Anyone have any luck sharpening a dull dodo or do you have to send it back to spyderco? I have a sharpmaker 204 but am not sure if it will sharpen the weird blade style. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Tom
