Love all the Salt series too! Been using the Pacific Salt and Salt 1 as well as Dragonfly in H1 for a few years now.

On a desperate note I am really wishing I had not sold off all my PM2’s. Such a great knife and now I could not afford to replace it. I may ask the wife for one for a Christmas!  :think:

The Cat is one of the most underrated Spyderco knives out there in my humble opinion. They suffered from spotty quality in the beginning but seem to have sorted out the niggles and I have a perfect specimen.
Jimping top and bottom, great clip, great centering and 440C is not a bad working steel. The blade shape is a treat with the right belly, taper and depth.
These days they come in BD1 Steel and are a good bridge between the Chinese and other Spydercos.
I think I work this knife harder than others because of its lower cost and therefore appreciate it more.

As the man said, it’s a Dragonfly in plain edge.
The H1 Dragonfly 2 sports a hollow grind compared to the full flat grind on the other models.

The Ladybug is really tiny; I do not have one at the moment to take a comparison shot.
Its a two finger hold while the Dragonfly squeezes a full 4 finger grip with the choil.

The Ladybug also comes in H1, VG-10 or ZDP-189 but has no clip and is aimed at a keychain or watch pocket.

My wife keeps a Ladybug in her purse. VG-10, purple FRN scales. She loves it.....but not as much as her Dragonfly 2.

I was going to say yes, the Chris Reeve thread, but now that I think about it I have spent a lot more on Spydercos than my single Chris Reeve.
