Dragonflies possess an unmatched elegance, gracefully hovering and gliding through the air with precision and purpose. Their ability to seamlessly blend into the surroundings until necessary is truly captivating.
Drawing inspiration from these remarkable creatures, the Spyderco Dragonfly 2 embodies their aptitude and finesse, presenting an efficient and lightweight knife that excels in various tasks.
Despite its compact 2.25-inch blade length and mere 1.2-ounce weight, the Dragonfly 2 feels substantial in your hand. Thanks to the thoughtful inclusion of a forefinger choil and thumb rest, you can comfortably grip the knife, filling your palm with confidence.
Crafted from VG-10 steel, the blade showcases Spyderco's iconic leaf-shaped design, effortlessly complemented by the signature Round Hole. This well-known feature facilitates easy one-handed opening, simplifying your experience.
Through the implementation of Spyderco's C.Q.I. (Constant Quality Improvement) process, this second iteration of the Dragonfly has been refined to perfection. Feedback and extensive research have paved the way for significant enhancements, ensuring an exceptional design.
Among the notable upgrades is the integration of the brand's patented Bi-Directional Texturing, which utilizes fiberglass-reinforced nylon. This innovative addition guarantees a secure and dependable carry, regardless of the direction you pull or push.
Furthermore, the tip-up wire clip has been updated to offer ambidextrous functionality, accommodating both right and left-handed users. Additionally, the screw-together handle construction reinforces durability and reliability.

Quick! List the most respected and innovative knife companies you can think of. If you know anything about knives, Spyderco is somewhere near the top. Spyderco Inc. makes some of the most unique and downright bizarre knife designs you'll see on the market, but from the number of passionate fans discussing, debating, and learning everything they can about Spyderco knives, it's clear that the company has done something right.
From the Glesser Family and the Spyderco Crew:
Since starting Spyderco we've been told our knives are different, peculiar, even out there. All true. Thinking beyond established knife industry barriers allowed us to introduce new and radical innovations to the knife culture including: One-hand opening, serrations on a folder and a clip to attach a knife to a pocket.
We didn't go into business to rake in a mountain of dough we're here for more selfish reasons- indulging our passion for creating knives. Spyderco is definitely out of the norm in the knife industry in our dedication to researching and developing fresh, improved and better performing materials all with function and reliability being key.
Someone once said to Sal Glesser, Spyderco's owner, 'You must design in the dark because your knives look so strange.' True again. Our recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomic functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. We may look curious, homely, whatever, but we'll never be called unusable or undependable.
Making knives that consistently deliver reliable high-performance requires an ongoing commitment to testing. In our million-dollar testing facility we examine edge retention with a CATRA machine, look for rust development with Q-FOG, check the force needed to open and close a knife. We also repeatedly test for stress, wear, optimal heat-treating and actively search for higher quality, performance enhancing steels and materials.
As a customer you probably don't think about this, or much care, but it allows us to put forth a promise. When you purchase a Spyderco you are buying a high-quality reliable cutting tool designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort. Those Who Know Carry Spyderco.
