I use a dragonfly at home, it would get lost on first day of use if I took it to work, lol.

Really got me tempted to pick one up lolholy crap this thing is a beast against cardboard boxes.
I suspect it might be too grippy.my spyderco rep has told me that in the para line their s35vn and s45vn are being targeted for 61rc.
@panda as for peel-ply textured g-10 on a western handled kitchen knife.........I'll throw one in a batch of our in house knives in the next few weeks and see how it feels.
I'm inclined to agree.I suspect it might be too grippy.

do it, it's awesome.Really got me tempted to pick one up lol
I was thinking for a paring knife. nothing worse than having it slip while doing in hand work.I'm inclined to agree.
I would not have wanted it during my time in the kitchen for an all day user but perhaps on a filet knife or boning knife that only gets used for shorter periods of time of prep.
that said, I am always up for an experiment.
currently if I want grippy g-10, I just finish it to 220 grit and then media blast it before my finishing oil/wax mixture.
Western handle paring, or wa handled petty? lets create an experiment.I was thinking for a paring knife. nothing worse than having it slip while doing in hand work.
*I just realized how that sounds out of context
one thing I don't like is that the lock release is on top of the handle (spine side) and not on bottom. I have to relearn how to open and shut one handed.
compression lock on top is awesome, you have to pinch the sides keeping your digits out of that thin ass blades path. Practice.one thing I don't like is that the lock release is on top of the handle (spine side) and not on bottom. I have to relearn how to open and shut one handed.
western. I have a funny story:Western handle paring, or wa handled petty? lets create an experiment.
that's not what she saidComes pretty easily.
And a much better idea then having a lock in the path of the edge. Liner and frame locks are really a bad idea as far as safety is concerned. I have many, so won't stop me from getting a knife, but technically speaking not an ideal design.compression lock on top is awesome, you have to pinch the sides keeping your digits out of that thin ass blades path. Practice.
I took the lock entirely off my assisted open (seemed counter productive to the concept), and only have *one* gnarly ass knuckle scar to show for it.danger-lock has been fine for me, then again I like to live on the edge
f0cked around and found out hahaI took the lock entirely off my assisted open (seemed counter productive to the concept), and only have *one* gnarly ass knuckle scar to show for it.
Didn't help that I flipped the clip too, so that if it accidentally assists me by opening in my pocket, the edge is the first thing my hand finds.f0cked around and found out hah
More accurately, I meant wear resistant. The factory edge lasted through a lot of cardboard.Hmm first time I've heard crazy tough as a description for 20cv. Interesting
+1 on this. Fell victim to HHC's enablement and haven't had a lick of regret, it's a great knife with great steel. Still haven't had the uh... pleasure of sharpening it yet but it holds nicely. Still think the wharncliffe is ugly but it's so functional. No chips from using it like a moron, yet.
