Although the Dragonfly is one of the top selling Spyderco models, i feel like there still isn't enough of it out there. So im making this thread for all things dragonfly to see if it sticks. Let's post pics, talk about up coming models, sprints we want to see, and just anything dragonfly related.
 
And here's a picture of my humble collection. Its like a Japanese Spyderco steel sampling tray:) Would really like to see a damascus and s30v version come out since they are working with those 2 right now over there.

I don't carry it, and I regret not getting the SE H1 version. Derp, oh well.

I think there is already a dragonfly thread here but heck I will bite . . .
I think this was my first really exotic steel knife. ZDP-189
I wouldn't mind a super hard one in paper white or super blue but that is pretty close to what I have so I'm happy . . . and it's British racing green so can't beat that.
It's lovely when closed as well. Great lines without nasty notches.
I call it my "Little Dragon".

A little while back I was choosing between the DF and Chappy. The Chappy won out but I gained a great appreciation for the DF. I would like to see a DF with G10 and s30v, xhp, zdp or something.
 
Love the Dragonfly! I've got both the stainless and G-10 version, and recently purchased a VG-10 FRN model for my uncle. Which he loves! Might have to get one for myself after holding it... It's so weightless! I've removed the clips on mine and carry them as a secondary blade, although they can hold their own just fine :cool:. Great design! :thumbsup: Can't wait to see what new steels become available for them, hopefully something non-stainless and not laminated.... Love those patinas!

Dragonfly sized H1 hawkbill, please

YES! I'd have already bought it. The hawkbill Ladybug is cool, but there's no clip. (!!!)
When I landscaped, the Tasman was the perfect knife. Now I'm bartending and the Delica is the perfect knife (again...). A smaller SE hawkbill with a clip would be a perfect companion for it.
 
Love the df2

Dressed one up with some cf scales and have the g10 as well.

Almost have myself convinced that I "need" the spyderedge H1 one too.

I really love the DF and keep hoping for a blue frn version.

Me too. I would love if the dragonfly followed the foot steps of the delica and endura. Like all the colors the standard delica comes in(including a dlc one), foliage green/damascus, trainer, jig bone, etc... With that said, spyderco does give some unique offerings with the tattoo and nishijin.
 
I'd love to see a toxic green FRN in H1 SE or an upscale CF/Micarta Dfly with Elmax or M390 stainless blade steel. That's not to say that VG10 hasn't served me well...

The toxic green needs an LC200N blade. :)
