About this item
- Constant Quality of Improvement: Recently we applied C.Q.I. to the classic Dragonfly creating a new Dragonfly 2. The Dragonfly was one of Spyderco's original lightweight knives and helped to introduce the use of FRN Handles.
- High Performance: The Dragonfly's success is largely due to its mid-size blade and Ergonomic handle that features a front-finger choil and spine cusp.
- Ergonomic: Designed as a carry: friendly folder, it comes with a left/right-hand tip-up wire clip, patented Bi-Directional Texturing on the handle, spine and choil jimping and screw-together handle construction.
- Superior Quality: The VG-10 blade has a high-performance flat-grind and is available with a PlainEdge configuration.
- Pocket-Friendly: The Dragonfly 2 Lightweight focuses around features which make it Ergonomically comfortable including positioning the Spyderco Round Hole in precise relation to the blade's pivot for the smoothest blade opening.

Good: Wow is all I can say on this knife (not literally, or the review would end here). I bought it because I wanted to go as small as possible while still having a highly functioning Every Day Carry (EDC) pocketknife. Being a fan of other Spyderco knives I've owned, I gave this one a shot and have been blow away. Everything on this knife is pretty much perfect. The 2" leaf head has a razor sharp edge out of the box that has held almost completely over the 18 months I've carried it. The standard Spyderco deployment hole is as effective as ever, much faster and more precise that your typical flipper/thumb peg options. No liner lock thank goodness; a nice handle release on the back. Body itself is grippy without being abrasive. The VG-10 steel offers great performance/value. One probably overlooked and underappreciated feature: the over and under jimping of the head makes it very hard for this knife to slip in your grip, even with the small handle. Great work all around on this one, Spyderco. I got this knife in the orange color, and that makes it almost impossible to lose. Before you opt for simple black, consider living a little (orange and yellow typically run a little cheaper also!).
Bad: Not much here. Probably a tad pricey for the average buyer, but worth it for the lasting value IMO. Also, the blade head is a little short, as advertised--you may get limited performance on some tasks that require a longer edge. This should be obvious if you go into this purchase with your eyes open. Just the slightest hint of play when locked, which I'll take in exchange for not having a liner lock.
Other: If you are planning for your survivalist trip alone in the wild or some wannabe Rambo type entering a war zone, you probably want to go with something a little bit more substantial. But for around the town, on the job use, this knife is terrific.

Für mich, der eigentlich immer irgendein Messer dabei hat (Multitool, Taschenmesser o.ä.) - weil es so praktisch ist, stellt das Dragonfly ein richtig richtig gutes EDC dar!
Die Haptik und Ergonomie ist einfach genial, das Messer liegt trotz seiner kleinen Größe (zusammengeklappt nichtmal 9 cm) richtig klasse in der Hand und bewältigt alle Alltagsaufgaben sehr gut! Es ist jedoch leider ein feststellbares Einhandmesser und unterliegt damit der Regelung des §42a WaffG und darf damit nicht in der Öffentlichkeit geführt werden.
Ich persönlich vertrete allerdings die Auffassung, dass man das Messer durchaus führen darf, sofern ein allgemein anerkannter Grund vorliegt (siehe Gesetzestext) - diesen Grund kann ich jederzeit benennen und muss im Zweifel wohl diskutieren - sofern man überhaupt einmal in die Verlegenheit kommen sollte, vor einem Gesetzeshüter die Taschen leeren zu müssen. Dieser Umstand sollte jedem Träger/Käufer jedoch vor dem Kauf bewusst sein.
Pro:
-Haptik sehr angenehm
-Auslieferungszustand Klinge: SEHR scharf!
-Klingendesign sehr alltagstauglich
-geringe Größe
-grandios leicht! ca. 35g
Contra:
-Nicht §42a WaffG kompatibel!
Fazit:
Das Dragonfly 2 ist ein absolut tolles EDC Messer, liegt hervorragend in der Hand und passt eigentlich immer irgendwo rein. Die Problematik des Verbotes, das Messer zu führen, sollte einem jedoch bewusst sein.

d'apparence ludique ,il est d'une redoutable efficacité,je ne pensais pas qu'un couteau pouvait avoir le tranchant
d'un cutter,pour couper plastique,emballage carton,ficelle,ou peler une pomme,tellement léger avec 33 grammes,il se fait oublier au fond de la poche.
aucun jeu dans la lame,bonne prise en main,la finition est exemplaire.pour l'instant je n'ai pas eu besoin de l’affûter, le test de la feuille de papier est toujours probant.
certes le prix est élevé mais il est tellement beau...
si je le perd, mon prochain couteau EDC sera surement un Spyderco.
(sur le catalogue Spyderco 2016 ,il est affiché a 89,95 $.)
