Spyderco Forums

Mostly legal reasons for me.
But I do love the simplicity and convenience and especially how Spyderco have done them with great steels, great designs and one handed opening.

I've emailed you mate.

So I finally got the FRN lightweight Urban and have realised it's exactly what I want from the UKPK! What I don't like about the UKPK is it's too light and doesn't feel sturdy or substantial enough for a 3 inch knife. The blade is too thin. The back lock only goes half way down the spine.

The older G10 model UKPK & Urbans were quite colourful. The Pingo & Roadie came in different colours too.
You on Facebook? There's a hidden Spyderco UK group where you could ask what's about.

Cheers for the welcome Sal.

UKPK or Urban are fantastic.
The S110V UKPK with blue scales is amazing.
Cuscadi do nice custom scales.
Are you in the UK?

The split back springs on the UKPK’s are perfectly balanced, in my opinion.

I concur. It's very satisfying to me to open and close my UKPK.

I agree, it opens and closes perfectly.
It's more an aesthetic thing of it stopping half way. Think the urban looks better for the full length spine.

Full length back spine with non-tuning fork style spring to continue the Squeak & Urban theme. Return of G10 would be nice. Not too bothered about exotic steels as long as the price doesn't go mad. A whole new shape UKPK like a slippy Native would be great. Whatever you end up doing just keep it...
