C.Q.I. - Constant Quality Improvement is a process Spyderco uses to evaluate and refine longstanding established knife models. Sometime C.Q.I. changes are large and noticeable, sometimes they're smaller refinements. The Dragonfly 2 upgrades some notable features over the classic while keeping the important basics and is now available with an orange FRN handle.
Features carrying-over to the new version are the tried and tested mid-sized blade and ergonomic handle along with a front-finger choil and spine cusp. Also staying int he blade-to-handle geometry and leveraging points which make the Dragonfly cut and feel like a much larger knife when in the hand.
New refinements include: the addition of a left/right tip-up wire clip, patented Bi-Directional Texturing on the handle, choil and spine jimping and screw together handle construction. The blade is still premium VG-10, now in a high-performance flat-grind.
The position of the enlarged Spyderco Round Opening Hole in relation to the pivot leads to smooth oepning and the orange FRN (fiberglass reinforce nylon) handle fits the hand ergonomically with a series of grip angles and leveraging spots.

Great little gentleman's folder. A little pricey for what you get, but great ergonomics and edge retention. My only big complaint is the pocket clip. Spyderco has fallen in love with these little wire clips over the last few years, and everyone but myself seems to be on board with it. I tend to catch pocket clips on everything and bend them out of shape. It seems like once these wire clips bend, they loose their strength and never hold their shape well again. They have a great clip design on the stainless steel handled model. I wish the would have carried it over to this one .
