    Arrow Request-Spyderhawk and Matriarch please

    I would like to see some comparison pics please. Since they use the same handle, I am trying to get a good visual of the blade length the edge difference. I can't wait for the new Matriarchs to come out and need something to get me by.

    Thanks

    I sure would like to see a plain edged black spyderhawk.

    Whenever I see the Matriarch or Civilian, I cringe and cover my juggular.

    wow this is a pretty cool size up, i like how the Matriach folds up better but the blade as a carrier for edc isnt so great, the Spyderhawk would be the true carrier but doesnt fold up as well as the Matriarch.

    be sweet is someone could custom reshaped the top part of the blade on the Spyderhawk so not so much would be exposed when closed.

    seems to me that the blade length is exact or very very close, its hard to tell sometimes because of optical illusions

    If I recall both are 3 5/8th's inches of blade.

    Really cool photos though, thanks! Nice to see the closed profile and the general arc difference. The Matriarch sprint would be very cool

    No Spyderco never made a CF Dodo, they are aftermarket scales. I know of a place that can make them if your interested, but they are kinda expensive, PM if you want to know.

    OK, so the Matriarch is shorter than the Civilian and is FRN, opposed to G-10 scales.

    I think I would prefer the Matriarch.

    Yep,
    the Gray ones are hard to find nowadays... 500pcs EVER made
    The Dodo's new feathers, as CanisMajor allready replied, are indeed aftermarket ones. Love the looks, but hate the grip, or actually the lack of it. Smooth as my Caly CF.. which also sits in my safe, because of the slick scales. There's a few more CF Dodo pics on the previous page.
