HH UKPK ordered.

This was definitely my weirdest purchase. The HH website changed the US dollar amount for the knife, for shipping, and for VAT with each screen. My credit card company flagged the purchase for fraud and sent me a text to approve the purchase, but not before I switched over to PayPal. So, I have anywhere from 0 to 2 knives on the way. Wish me luck!

Have a Shaman on the way...Green scales and a DLC Cruwear blade. Nice to have the chance to pick one up at a non-secondary market price.
That KnifeWorks exclusive Shaman looks really sweet.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Spyderco Siren.

I put off getting one until now because of the backlock movement issue that some users experienced. I finally admitted that I don't use my folders that hard so the issue probably won't affect me.

The new ones do not suffer from that issue after Spyderco CQI'd them. The new ones are spectacular, in my opinion. I received my warranty replacement the other day.

That's good to know. Thanks for the info.

Ugh… I’m trying to lighten my pile, not add more to it! I want this and a Swick but other stuff must go!

Either of those would make a worthwhile addition to one's pile. No need to rush though, as they will probably be in production for some time.

I’ve got two on the way and I’m like a kid before Christmas. Both are Sprint runs.

I had tried to get the Paramilitary 2 with Jungle Wear Fat Carbon scales and a Satin M4 blade from Smoky Mountain Knife Works. It showed up on the Spyderco app as a Sprint run but when I tried to order it they were out of stock.

Oddly, the listing on the app disappeared and SMKW said they were out of stock so I went for the Yojumbo with the S90 blade and carbon fiber scales from CSI.

When I checked my email for confirmation on the Yojumbo there was a email from SMKW that the PM2 I originally wanted was back in stock. All of this happened over an hour or so.

Naturally, I took that as a sign from the knife Gods that I was supposed to own both. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I received my Yojambo today and it’s beautiful.

My exclusive PM2 is still in the mail.

The M390 Chief just landed. I like the brown G10 with DLC blade even more than I thought I would.

HH UKPK came in today. The handle and pocket clip nestle perfectly in my palm. I love it!

What's the closest lock back equivalent to the UKPK that doesn't use FRN? Anything with the same blade shape and a wire clip?
