Re: new spyderco smallfly?
It is nit worth $179.
Blade HQ has it for $20 less. They even have a Digi Camou version:

When I started collecting Balisongs in August 2010, I started getting everything I could find. The Smallfly was selling around $120-$130. Even at the height, I couldn't sell mine off very easily. I sold them for whatever I had in them. They're decent flippers and they flip better than the Benchmade 32 Morpho. However, most people like 4" blades. If they made a G10 4" Spyderfly, they would sell like HOTCAKES! 3" Balisongs don't have a strong following, 5" Balisongs and longer do not either.
Check out my YouTube channel. I have many different Balisongs. You can see what I'm talking about. Some productions, some customs, some Filipino handmade, some "Grails" and I flip them all, except for a group of ones that are not ideal flippers.

Re: new spyderco smallfly?
alright thanks for the help 
i have a 32 as well and if it flips better than the 32 i will strongly consider it. i know what you're saying about 3" blades, but i like the smaller sized balisongs as prefered to the bigger ones. but thanks for the help!
