Spyderfly!

[Law of Thirds]

I just picked up a blue smallfly and I can't put it down. Why aren't these more popular? The blade shape is nice, it really tears through cardboard and other stuff (push cutting with that deep belly is super easy) and is comfortable to grip. Is it just the balisong legal issues that hold people back on these?

I love to have a smallfly but they are illegal in Canada.

How easy are they to get nowadays? I really want one sometime.

I would imagine it is the legal issue for most people and for carrying all the time it's probably pretty intimidating to some people. Some rubes get all upset over people carrying a small folder let alone a Bali

I love the Smallfly. So far there isn't any new models in the works.

I love my old VG-10 Spyderfly. Although I have not really carried it since I bought my Benchmade 51.

Why aren't these more popular?

Whether for legal reasons, or simply because they're "different", balisongs are not the most popular knives and even some of the folks who like balisongs don't care for the non-traditional handles on the SpyderFly and SmallFly.
