They already made one in micarta, how would "regular" micarta be different? :confused:

Hhahaha hhahaha ! This one had me in stitches ! simple, succinct and eloquent. Of course not poking fun at the original poster regarding the regular micarta.

As pointed out the second released Kopa was in black micarta. Harder to find these days, but it is my choice of Kopa EDC.

Sal has mentioned a more 'regular' clipless, possibly dentless, possibly left handed Kopa coming out. Possibly in full S/S. I hope this comes true and that it doesn't stray too far from the original Kopa design.
