Just wish it looked as great as the PM2 does closed. They just need to make the PM2 with contoured handles already and thin out the blade stock make a knife afi version, I think Sal's mentioned it in the past.
I also separately wanted to, back on topic, say that I do need to try the chappy so I can compare it to the urban and ukpk.
I wish we could get a UKPK in K390 and get Sal to budge on the chappy being only in xhp. A chappy with K390, I'll pay you for it right now! lol Not that there's anything wrong with xhp, I just have been on a K390 kick lately. I've been watching the forums for a cheap chappy. I also think a sage in different steel would be amazing too.
I gotta say Urban vs UKPK, unless you have a blade limit, I like the UKPK much better. Longer blade and it's even lighter weight. 1.5 oz is insane. This is why the slipjoint is better for a small knife.
Thanks, I see!
/ Luckily I don´t have any knife related limits at all where I live, and that might be the reason why I vastly prefer locking folders and generally larger ones (Endura size). Just because I CAN (and mostly DO) carry them and so am so very much used to doing most task with such larger locking folders (even such where a smaller one would be just as good or maybe even more handy)
/ Right, you gotta try a Chap Regardless if you actually will like/keep it or not in the end, the rather uniquely (even for Spyderco) thin ffg blade is something that has to be experienced imho.
Also the lock: Again, in practical use maybe you will not even like it too much if you don´t NEED a lock on such a small folder, but technically it is just fascinating for any "knife nerd" I think. Exceptionally well constructed with its internal stop pins and the perfectly solid lockup.
