9 years and still this is my top daily!

I just received my Spyderco Dragonfly 2 Zome. My first impression was how small it is. I typically pocket carry without using the clip; in fact, I removed the clip from the knife. I use a knife primarily to open packages, mail, cut clothing tags etc. I'm liking the light weight, thin profile, sharpness, and ease of one hand opening/ closing. Very suitable EDC.

Cool review. I have the S35VN version. I carry my knife on my belt sometimes. I’ve busted a lot of pocket clips and came close to losing my knife a few times. I try to carry it in my pocket now. My liner is very stiff too. I’m hoping it loosens up a bit.

Stop being weak

Great video! Thanks for the cool wristband tip for carrying cash

I was confused at the blade height difference when I bought 2 knives both advertised as the 511 (one from Atwood's and one from Amazon). I like the taller blade

Can I use 400mah 1.5 volt usb rechargeable AAA batterie in it? Plz inform me about it

How did u get your lock so smoothly Open? I just got mine and its very hard to pull it back and get it closed, also my blade doesnt swing open as much?

Junk. Don't buy.

Still a popular knife in my collection. I purchase knives starting at around $24.00 all the way up to $2000.00 . The ones I purchase that are under $200.00 are knives that have a use and can be used without worrying about wear.

They are now offering some of the designs from this line in D2, which is gonna have great edge retention. I personally have no problem with 8cr, especially at the price. I have wanted an emerson designed folder for a while, and I just can't see spending the extra money for slightly better steel. I would love a US made, but I think the tradeoff makes it worth it, especially since the qc and finishing on the full blown Emerson knives have proved to be lacking in many cases. Thanks for the video. Enjoy your knives

Hi from 2022, thanks for the video! You're the only resource I've found confirming that the G10 was revised thinner and less grippy than previous models. I'd worn my old one pretty hard over the last decade and was finally able to get a replacement in XHP on an ebay collection sale, but was worried it was counterfeit because of the scales! FWIW those pins engage the scales, but aren't peened over at all so you can disassemble easily just removing the screws. In case you haven't tried yet over the last 4 years :)

If you can’t even open it why own it? 😂

I’ve been carrying this knife (I believe the model number is actually 6030) for a few weeks and am really liking it. I have several older Emersons but quickly looking up what they sell for today makes me leery about loosing one so I got this one as a carry.

Why buy one I bought two for the price of two.

What oil do I need to treat my pohl force knifes which is d2 steel

Nice review bro.. bought it after watching this. Love this knife

Great review Sir

The mora i see.....the mora i like....the mora i get! Lol.

Another desktop fondling video lol

Are you Brian S? I have seen some excellent vids from him, and you sound just like him. #subscribed

If you own the 511 and 546, would the Pro be an advantage or improvement?

Iv used this for feather sticks to field dressing animals and fish spine strikes ferro rod nicely. Literally is a perfect edc/survival knife.

I live in the Midwest, and I've never had issues with D2 rusting. For me its my go-to steel.

Awesome I might be getting a mre for camping great vid

I like everything about this knife , well built , good materials ..you can get them now for as low as 75 to 79 bucks .. I have heard people comment about the long pocket clip but i like it ....Ive seen some black ones in stock now , but the other colors are out of stock in most places at this time ...

I just ordered a Dragonfly 2 Zome. I have a Manix 2 lightweight, but I needed something smaller for short hikes in the woods. Manix 2 would be kinda overkill, and my tiny Swiss Army-pocket knife would be too small and flimsy. Really looking forward to getting it. And I LOVE the Zome pattern on it. Can't want to see it in real life. Btw, I live in Norway, where no-one carries knifes. It's not legal to carry AT ALL, unless you have "a good reason to", like fishing, hiking, you're working and need a knife. You are not allowed to just have a knife with you without good reason. Therefore a Dragonfly is the perfect size, since it's small and non-threatening, since people are not used to seeing knives out at all. So flipping out a Dragonfly in the bush seems more acceptable than a larger knife. Thank you for the reveiw, because it was one of the videos that really hooked me and made it easier to make the decision to order it.

This is a cool looking knife to sit in your glovebox for an emergency. "nuff said. I like it.

Knife and self defense shouldn’t be in the same sentence... unless trained in knife techniques... probably gonna get cut

Dumbass

I stopped watching after 52 seconds when your lily white hands appeared on the screen and you made a sound like you were lifting 200 lbs as opposed to opening a pocket knife. The idea that you need a knife you can "Play With" all day ended your credibility

Doesn't look like u used the knife ever....

I love my SD, I have one in my truck and one on my work desk and also love them for the scissors. I actually used both today for their scissors.

Great video brother nice job 👍

I have a Pro S, and love it. I haven't really found anything that I strongly dislike about it. Great knife at a great price. Surprisingly, I actually like it better than the Companion because of the way it feels in my hand. Fairly easy to sharpen too. With stropping I can get it shaving sharp. I like the stainless so much that I'm in no hurry to try the carbon.

Where is the papertest after freehand sharpening? I bet it was sharper before.

Rat 1 with aus 8 is going for $22 at knife center rightnow. Definitely tempting but I have been wanting one with D2

2:50 that’s weird all the Kizer Tangram knives I’ve bought have been razor sharp out of the box

It’s called the g10 model those are the non lightweight just so you know. Because the handle material is g10.

ya i was supprised how small it it but over all its good

I own one and it is so stiff to open, my thumb slipped and resulted in a bad cut. Anyway to loosen this thing up? The main screw does not seem to be hex...

Kershaw m390 is a superior blade. But the Kershaw Link 420hc is not a crappy blade.

Hi, how is the handle colour after this time keeping? Any wear signs?

I think this exact knife is almost impossible to beat as a daily carry. Perfect edc steel, great blade geometry, well built, made in the USA, and G10. I will use mine. Great choice.

If you wanted to freehand sharpen then just get the blade grinding attachment. I don't even understand why you aren't using the guides. It gives you more consistency in sharpening.

Not trying to sound rude man but you really should put the guide back on. Your knife would get so much sharper. 2 things are very obvious from the freehand attempts. 1. You’re moving the knife left to right as you’re sharpening which is giving uneven angles and 2. Your angles are different from the left side to the right.

I have this and tested today,its really great saw.

I have the edc bag the fatty and the skinny my mini I gave to a friend

Not bad. Most true Emersons are not really flickable knifes till they break in either.

Nice review, thanks. I just picked up the all black Hornet with blue backspacer and was looking at other people’s opinions on it. It’s strange, but at the end of the video, all I could focus on was that red/orange rug in the background. Cost Plus World Market? I’ve had the same design for like 10 years and have never seen another until now.
