Hi Sal, and the rest. I'm new to this forum, and I'm a fan of Spyderco products. I currently have a 98 Endura, a Native, and a mini AFCK. I'm fixing to buy a Dragonfly, just for the shape of the handle, and its go anywhere size. This is a knife I've admired for awhile, except for its diminutive size. I for one would like to see an Endura or Goodard Jr. size Dragonfly, in VG-10, 440V or AUS-8 steel. With the extra size it could have the new flush, reversible clip. All stainless body would probably be to heavy. Zytel, G-10, and black micarta would mate very well with this size. I think this would be a great seller. RKBA!
 
Have you checked out the Calypso?

Yes I have, the blade is right, but the handle is no Dragonfly. If it stays in the product line; I'll get around to one. Still dreaming. RKBA!
 
I was just thinking the other day that I'd like to see a larger Dragonfly, but only slightly larger. My first three fingers can fit inside the curve of the handle, but just barely; they're too scrunched together too be really comfortable. It seems like my hands are a bit on the small side too, so someone with bigger hands may have less success. Plus, it's just difficult to manipulate the knife because it's so small.

Everything else about the design is superlative though. I think it's very underrated. Increasing the size by maybe 20% or so might get it close to the perfection in my humble opinion.
