Got my Urban and UK Penknife as well, both with sage green G-10... I love both of these knives! A friend handled them and said he wanted an Urban, so I'm going to get one for him! And a sage green G-10 flat ground Delica just arrived too. WOW. In addition to my sage green G-10 Dragonfly, I've got ...

Just got my Urban Leaf green G-10 and (a couple of weeks ago) a UKPK... I am so impressed with these beautiful knives... I like them more than I thought I would. Don't miss having locks at all as they are so secure. Fit, finish, materials, sharpness all top-shelf! Very impressive knives. They are ...

Buckles... is that a UKPK? I found a new UKPK w/leaf-shaped blade, sage-green G10 scales for $75 including shipping today and felt it was a good enough deal to be irresistible... should be here Monday ...

Man, this weirds me out reading this, and from more than one poster. I press the liner with my thumb, and push the blade with my index finger until the kick{?} bumps onto my thumb. THEN, I get the thumb outta the way and finish closing with my finger. I just did it again right now, and I can't see ...

Thanks for the input... thinking about leaf vs. wharncliff.... hmmmm. Among all my knives, I don't have even one wharncliff... perhaps that would be a good way to go.

As for the Spyderco FRN handles, I know they're excellent performing and low cost handles that many people really like, but I just ...

I've bought several Spydercos from Spydieguys... a couple through eBay and a few directly. Every time shipping was like IMMEDIATE and I had the knives in a couple of days. NICE! One of the knives I decided to return just because it was a little bigger than I thought I wanted at the time (since ...

I too wanted to find a good quality Spyderco which fit between the Dragonfly and the Sage in size. A blade about 2.5", good steel, G10 or CF scales, just a little larger than the magnificent D'fly.

The CAT fit the bill magnificently! I ordered two of the last ones available that I could find. And ...

Hi Buckthorn,

I think you'd have to have someone like Brad make the changes for you. Our new model is tip up wire clip only. Both left and right are possible, but there is still some sticking out of the pocket.

The final pieces will be one piece FRN, bi-directional texture, left / right tip up ...

Urban Leaf... a few questions about this model...

Among those of us who can have and carry knives with locks, is the Urban a popular model? Or only primarily among those who are not legally able to have locking knives?

The size and design of the Urban is very appealing to me, but all of my SPydercos and other folding knives have locks (which I ...

Dang... just missed this by a few days. I would love to have attended... Eugene is just a couple of hours south of me by Harley Davidson. ;)

Does the show happen each April? If so, I'll mark my calendar for next year.

Tenacious is a sweet knife at a great price. Perhaps a bit big for some folks (like me) for EDC, but a wonderful knife nonetheless.

I find it's smaller twin brother, the Persistence, a little better sized for my overall preference.

If I can just quit slicing my thumb tip on closing the very ...
