The bodacious, an over priced and therefore underwhelming knife in my opinion. Spyderco is trying to one-up Benchmade with the bonkers price point…
Anyways, like the Shaman, the knife is just too big for my preference, so it got the same chop treatment as I’ve done with my shamans, down to about Bugout size. Approximately 3.25″ blade, 7.5″ OAL. Really hoping someone makes contoured scales for this model, because it’s sorely missing them. (Fun fact, shaman scales will fit on this model, but obviously ergos are a bit wonky).
Overall, the general profile is the closest I’ve come to the “perfect” spyderco for me, but it still is quite a ways off unfortunately. What do you so think? I’m I just crazy?

Forgot to add, may remove a small bit of material from the finger guard, so it is more easily front flicked like the shaman. Just so many missed opportunities with this model.
I have a shaman with nice scales, but the thing is way too big. I passed over this model for the same reason. It doesn’t seem to give anything worth while to justify having the thing be that large.
To be fair, PM2 is also too large for me in most cases. I’ll carry it, but I much prefer Para3 size.
