From the Manufacturer:
Zome (pronounced "zoh-may") is a classical Japanese method of dyeing textiles that is closely related to many aspects of that country's culture and history. Inspired by this rich artistic heritage, Spyderco's Zome family of knives includes unique hand-dyed variations of popular lightweight models with injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handles. The handles of these knives are first molded in a light base color, and then individually hand dyed by expert Japanese artisans using a technique reminiscent of traditional hiki-zome (brush dyeing). In this painstaking method, various colors of dye are hand brushed onto the handle to create distinctive, one-of-a-kind patterns that permeate the FRN material.
The Dragonfly 2 Zome combines a brilliant pattern of green shades with all the other defining features of this best-selling model, including a full-flat-ground VG-10 stainless steel blade, a sturdy back lock mechanism, and a reversible deep-pocket wire pocket clip that supports left or right-side tip-up carry. An amazing fusion of traditional artistry and modern factory production, the Dragonfly 2 Lightweight Zome is a practical everyday cutting tool with one-of-a-kind character.
The blade steel has a hardness of 60-62 Rc. The blade measures 2-1/4" and the closed length is 3-1/4". Weighs 1.2 oz. Made in Japan. Suggested Retail $105.00.

Spyderco
In 1981, Spyderco ventured into the world of knife making by introducing their first folding knife, the C01 Worker. This knife was the first in the industry to feature a round hole in the blade design that allowed for fast, one-hand opening, now the company’s trademark, and the first to feature a pocket clip. The trademarked round hole is the most recognizable feature of a Spyderco knife and it facilitates the easy opening and closing of these knives with one hand while also offering convenient access and maximum control while opening as well as accommodating large, small or gloved hands.
Spyderco’s recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomically functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. Spyderco’s knives may look unusual, but they will never be called unusable or undependable. When you purchase a Spyderco knife, you are buying a high quality reliable cutting tool that was designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort.
