One of the tradeoffs of compact knives is that they are somewhat more challenging to deploy one handed. The Spyderco Dragonfly 2 Emerson Opener solves that problem by enhancing the popular Dragonfly 2 Lightweight with an Emerson Opener -- an integral hook that snags the top of the pocket to automatically open the blade as the knife is drawn. Sporting a distinctive gray FRN handle with non-slip Bi-Directional Texturing™, this high-speed version of the Dragonfly 2 proudly includes all the other defining features of this popular model.
