Dragonfly

Post by ken98k »

I received this knife in the recent POS exchange and I'm somewhat intrigued by it. I says Dragonfly on the blade and then what looks like VDW.
Does anyone have any insight into this knife?

Th grind lines do have a custom made look to them.

Does not appear to be standard china or Pakistan.

The Dragonfly figure and print appears to have been done by a rotary type engraving tool which would not be the case if the knife was a mass production item. I believe the knife is a custom made product.

I focused on that one also Ken when I first saw your picture, and I was intrigued by it. And now, seeing more of the knife I'm doubly intrigued.
I agree it appears to be custom made and not of Chinese or Pakistani decent, especially with that multi-hole pivot.
The stamp and engraving look legitimate to me, but the stationary pocket-clip throws me a bit, since I've only ever seen those on inexpensive Chinese makes.
I find the knife very attractive, and am quite surprised to see it included in a POS exchange.
Lucky you, dude!
