      It's actually a woven glass fiber…I have no clue how it's manufactured but pictures do it no justice

        Ah, yeah it doesn't look like carbon fiber. I didn't notice that you can't switch the clip from right to left.  Oh well may just take the clip off.

            Man that rig is sick. Love the bottle opener…thats a fantastic addition.

            Ive been making due with with a bench made infidel. Its a total piece of shit but i get a 51% military discount and needed something auto for work. The other day i dropped it about two feet onto hardwood and managed to upset the auto system and snap the point off (knife was closed, deployed when it hit and broke the point off). Probably safe to say it will be my last bench made purchase. Thinking about a chris reeve sebenza.

              Mike, was that knife available without the bottle opener?

                I've been carrying a Spyderco Dragonfly in ZDP-189 the last couple months, and my coworkers husband was criticizing that it felt flimsy in hand and couldn't handle anything tougher than opening envelopes (he's a schmuck) because of the plastic handle

                I handed him four blank CDs (roughly the thickness of the two scales) and told him to try to snap them.

                  Doug, I don't believe so. This model is really a collab between Peter and his brother. Sort of a mid-tech'ish necker, but full custom. I kind of don't like the bottle opener either…

                    The placement is odd, it leaves you turning the tip back toward the hand holding the bottle. If it was on the handle end, it would be better, but just my opinion.

                      They're putting bottle openers and glass breakers on everything these days. If I didn't watch what I'm carrying, I could have four bottle openers and five glass breakers on me at all times. I'm waiting for someone to put one on a gun

                              They're surprisingly useful for a small knife, and they all get used in different ways. Love my DF2

                                    Last Spyderco I picked up was the Para 2 which is my EDC. Dragonfly looks very useful though, I'll have to
                                    add it to my never ending list. 😉

                                      Yup. I have the NASA Ladybug, but no Dragonfly. But if my memory serves me, it had a wire clip.
