I just got this new Spyderco Kopa and wanted to show it off.
VG10 blade steel and Squash Bone handles.

I want to make it a user but I'm not ready to put my Sebenza down just yet.

If anyone is on the fence about getting a Kopa, I say go for it. It's one sweet little knife and scary sharp out of the box like most Spyderco's.
Smooth action too.

Thanks for looking.

Um - I'm sure it feels and works great and finish seems top class, but like most Spydercos the "look" puts me off - this one reminds me of a cartoon crow character - I'll stick to my Waved Endura.

I'm paranoid only cause everyone's out to get me!

I like the spyderco's especially since they are made just down the road from me. You said that it had squash bone handles. What is squash bone?

Squash bone is just bone that is died the color of a squash (the vegetable).

Mine is a little lighter in color than my pictures suggest.

I wonder...what could the steel be? And the handles?

Gotta read the OP people...gotta read the OP.
