I have had both. I sold the Leafstorm. Both are kick *** but the Chokwe is my favorite Spyderco design ever. For an EDC...It's perfection.

If you can get your hands on a copy of Solidworks, it will blow your mind. Perfect tool for designing knives.

There's been a lot of random violence in Philadelphia lately, meaning assaults and murders that were not the result of an altercation. The worst part is they are creeping out of the hood and into gentrified and upper class areas.

Anything can happen anywhere.

OOH, so the CF is not slicked out like on the UKPKs? It looks it in photos, so I always thought it would be completely smooth.

Gayle Bradley idea.

I love the tank of a knife Gayle Bradley pattern, especially with M4.

That said, the carbon scales aren't my style. Especially with the hard use pattern and blade geometry, I'd prefer G10. Grippier, less pricey.

How awesome would this knife be in grey G10 like the 20cp para?

What does everyone ...

Sounds to me like the Dodo blade excels at the same kind of cutting my Cricket did. Except the far more ergonomic handle will be safer, more comfortable, and will allow for more precision.

And that type of cutting is basically anything EDC oriented besides food prep (unless opening bags of jerky ...

Excited about my future Dodo!

Hey guys,

Here's a knife that's been in the works for a long time. One that I've wanted for a very very long time.

The Orange Dodo Sprint.

I've never handled or seen a Dodo in real life, and was wondering if some might have comparison photos with some of the knives I do own/have handled. Anyone ...

To the OP...

I just wanted to add this. Maybe Sal will enjoy.

I own two CRK's. Love em. I own about 10 Spydercos. Love em.

I've handled many custom knives. I'm talking $500+ customs.

My Military, Para, and Chokwe are the smoothest opening knives I've EVER opened and closed.

I only own three brands of knife:

Spyderco
Chris Reeve
Bark River

Reasons? Quality, design, and beauty. Great stuff. CRK knives are expensive for a reason. I hope it never changes. Spyderco offers various models at different price points. I tell you though that some of my Spydies are up there ...

This is one of my favorite designs Spyderco has ever done. I would rather see a different color spacer as well, but I don't mind the blue. In fact, it doesn't sway the decision to get this knife at all.

Don't fret. Apple will be fine. The reason Jobs was so successful is because he knew how to pick out and assemble talent. Tim Cook, Jonathan Ive, and the other head Apple execs will be able to run the company just fine.
