G10. I won't hardly look at a knife anymore if it doesn't have G10. Metal scales (SS, titanium, aluminum, etc) look sweet, but are just too slick. FRN/GRN/Zytel just feels cheap to me (I know it is not... and is indeed very durable, but I can't get over the fact it feels like plastic in my palm). I ...

Here's my the latest addition to my (admittedly small) knife stable. A brace of Para Military2s I got just this week! (this is my first post... lurking for a while, finally decided to sign up.).
